Oh come on. Now who is stretching?
A child found murdered had a paintbrush shoved up her vagina. Who says, you? Experts said nothing. At autopsy, Dr. Meyers not only would have paid special attention to his findings in his examination of that part of the body, including taking slide samples (were there any paintbrush fragment in those slides??), but he brought in a pediatrician with credentials to examine the body and autopsy results, as well, so there is no question: Where did anybody say anything about a paintbrush?
We've had numerious doctors and professional RNs go over this with us. Dr. Wecht wrote extensively about it in his book on the case. Many experts have read the autospy, also, and NOT ONE EVER HAS SAID THERE WAS NO PRIOR VAGINAL INJURY, not that I've seen, anyway. They KNOW the difference between a structural anomaly and EROSION. No matter what argument you believe about how it happened, this is NOT some "disfigured nose".
And bubble bath does NOT erode the rim of the hymen.
I swear, the things people come up with to avoid the obvious: What a coincidence that this child was being assaulted by her own bubble bath, and how LUCKY for the PEDOPHILE KILLER who only wanted to jam a paintbrush up his victim while undressing, cleaning her up, and redressing her, not to mention, HANDwriting a long ransom note IN THE HOME because the RAMSEYS would be sure to use a computer!
