There was no intruder. JonBenet would not have sat down at the breakfast room table late at night, after the parents had gone to bed, and snacked on pineapple alone with an intruder one hour before she died. There's lots of evidence that Burke was with JonBenet when she snacked on the pineapple, not an intruder.
Yet, IMO, there was also evidence that a fifth person was in the house that night, and that's how all of the missing crime scene evidence disappeared (the roll of black duct tape, the white cord, the stun gun, the wipedown cloth, etc.)
The autopsy report stated JonBenet's stomach contained no food. However, there were fragments of (not well chewed) pineapple in the "proximal (beginning) portion" of the small intestine. There was no other food in the remainder of the small intestine. There was green fecal matter in the large intestine.
JonBenet died about 1 hour after eating the pineapple. Depending mainly on what is eaten and how much is eaten, food takes about 1 to 3 hours to leave the stomach and enter the small intestine. The food then takes about 4 to 8 hours to travel the length of the small intestine and enter the large intestine, and finally takes about 3 to 6 hours to travel the length of the large intestine before being evacuated. (The average meal takes about 13 hours from the time it is eaten to when it is totally digested and evacuated as fecal matter.)
Fruit, when eaten alone, digests very quickly. Thus, the pineapple would have been at the beginning of JonBenet's small intestine if eaten about 1 hour before she died. The cracked crab meal she ate at the White's dinner party around 6 or 7 that evening would have been the green fecal matter in the large intestine.
The bowl of fresh pineapple that JonBenet had snacked from was on the breakfast room table, as was a water glass containing a used tea bag, and a large box of Kleenex. A giant silver serving spoon stuck ridiculously out of the small white bowl containing the pineapple. Burke Ramsey's fingerprints were on the bowl. Burke was also the resident tea drinker.
The 4 Ramseys sat at their own places when dining in the breakfast room (they seldom used the formal dining room). The bowl of pineapple was near where JonBenet normally sat, and the empty water glass was near where Burke normally sat.
The fingerprints and the pineapple and the empty glass of tea at the table makes it obvious that Burke and JonBenet were likely together about 1 hour before JonBenet died. But why were they secretly downstairs in the middle of the night? Were they waiting for someone to show up who they both knew very well? Were they waiting for the fifth person in the house that night to make his appearance? Is that why the outside security light was turned off that night after being left on for years?
Were they innocently waiting for the killer?
