Of all people to make the above comment. People on the forum have been asking you to back up your statements for as many years as you've been posting and you NEVER, NEVER back anything up.

It's really ironic that you would make a comment (and in a rather rude way, I might add) about something you NEVER practice yourself.

LP,

With all due respect, why in the world would a transcript transcribed by someone who has definitively chosen a side of the fence, so to speak, be considered an accurate transcript? Again, with all due respect; this is not to say you wouldn't/didn't transcribe properly, but I feel that if I, or someone from the other side of the fence stated that WE transcribed something ourselves, you would be less than willing to accept it as accurate.

And yes, transcripts don't always include stutters and facial expressions. Some will make note and some will not.

The transcription is from A&E's programming. I provided the quote.

K777angel's provided her memory only.

I think K777Angel was pretty clear in her description of what was said and what gestures accompanied what was said and it should be easily proved or disproved.

I've been posting about the Ramsey case for 6 years and have provided zillions of quotes and sources, and have personally typed some transcripts that wouldn't be available otherwise (I did not type out the 1st documentary transcript in question).

Not sure what your point is here. Are you saying that you are so experienced that you don't make mistakes? I can recall several instances where you made mistakes. I'm sure everyone appreciates the work you put in. Many of us are also university educated and equally well trained to be careful in providing quotes and sources.

I'm willing to back up what I claim to be true with sources. It's only fair that others do too.

K777's post sounds as if she has a copy of the documentary. I think it's fair that she listen again and provide us with a transcript or a recording, stutter for stutter, of that section of the recording where she claims there is something different than what is recorded on A&E's transcript.

I hope she does. If I could, I would.

But it is a mistake to ask for 'stutter in that section of the recording' for then any sort of normal voice hesitation will be seized upon even if it is indistinguishable from such other normal voice hesitations throughout the tape. Ofcourse, there probably isn't even the slightest stutter there... but now everyone will claim that there is and that A&E issued an edited tape.

Talking of editing evidence - the RST aren't above editing evidence. I refer specifically to the comparison images in the stungun discussion on *******'s website. the image of JonBenet has been enlarged and it looks as though the marks are identically spaced as a result.

I am also sure that both you and LP will recall some altered images of orange fibre evidence in the vanDAm case ....

Some people are not above altering evidence to support their arguments.

Again, that "f" sound was so subtle, one had to be listening very closely. I was. It's not like it was not discernable, just that it was not the sound of TWO letters together...like the "fo" or "fi" sound. Those latter two sounds would be easier for a transciptionist to type out, IMO. Also, that's why it's not exactly clear to me what time he was about to say, only that he changed it from a time, IMO, to the word "early". Why did he avoid the word he was going to say? Fishy, very fishy, to me.

Nope, not saying I don't make mistakes. I'm saying that I do not have the same memory of that section of the interview with John that K777 has. I provided that section of transcript and reading it hasn't "refreshed my memory", as they say, to a different conclusion.

The transcript available at http://thewebsafe.tripod.com/09281998aedocumentary.htm is the one I'm quoting. I don't know who typed it. Maybe CandyRose remembers who typed it.

I hope K777 will relisten to her copy (of the "Who Killed JonBenét" documentary that aired in 1998 and was subsequently purchased by A&E, which has aired it repeatedly). I'd love to have her transcribe that section word for word, pause for pause, stammer for stammer, and/or record it.

If the tape supports what she remembers (and Imon remembered it the same way, I believe), I will acknowledge their superior memory and to the actual recording.

 

[LovelyPigeon]

Imon, you got a post in while I was composing mine. I doubt that I'm going to find it fishy even if John stammer a subtle f-sound or two

 

[Imon128]

That's okay, LP.

I still am curious to this day, what he intended to say, and why he changed his words. Guess at this point, we'll never know, only speculate. :truce:
