Solace,
I agree with most of the irrelevant info you add about the the DNA and the polygraph, but it still doesn't negate the fact that the DNA is not that of John nor Patsy and it could be that of the killer, and that John and Patsy Ramsey passed the polygraph exam without showing deception. BlueCrab, nothing I posted is "irrelevant'. We all know that most likely this dna is worthless as far as clearing the Ramseys. But you smokescreen the truth with your post when you say DNA cleared the Ramseys as suspects.
There is no match for an intruder and there is not going to be one unless they start looking for matches in Taiwan where the factory is that made the undergarment. John and Patsy FINALLY passed without deception. The test was done by the ever suspect Dr. Gelb. Maybe it does not bother you how he came to get his diploma? I know it did not bother the Ramseys because pretty much like attracts like and they found each other.
They refused to take a test from another polygrapher because he wanted Patsy to take a drug test. Lin Wood tried very hard to cover this fact up by saying he never called the polygrapher back and told him no. But one of his assistants did, so he was lying, he was just "lying". You might want to leave Lin Wood and his expertise out of this because I believe "he made most of his money on the Ramsey case". John also lied several times about being asked to take one. Patsy finally passed. She also failed so please lets be honest about what you post.
But in regard to Patsy's handwriting analyses, it appears you have swallowed the hook, line, and sinker of the lies of Steve Thomas. For instance, there was never any study that concluded that 24 out of 26 letters in the ransom note matched Patsy's handwriting. Such a conclusion doesn't even make sense. (Makes sense to me. At one point or another in the ransom note 24 letters out of 26 match). And Chet Ubowski didn't make such a claim; it was made up by and started as a rumor by Steve Thomas. When challenged for a source of such a convoluted study, Steve Thomas couldn't provide one. I will be happy to recant if you can prove that to me. Chet Ubowski said at the Grand Jury that he could not eliminate Patsy. You posted that he eliminated John, but you neglected to post he could not eliminate Patsy. That is borderingn on "misleading". Don't you think?
I looked at the analysis Darnay Hoffman's expert provided and if it does not amaze most, I will be surprised. It is in in a word "incredible".
Although the official numbers from the handwriting analyses haven't been publicly released, it is believed that not only Patsy, but MOST of the 72 suspects who took the test could not be eliminated as the possible writer of the ransom note. I believe you have that backwards, but please prove it to me.
Steve Thomas lied again when he insinuated that Patsy was the only one who could not be eliminated. The truth of the matter is that not even Burke Ramsey could be eliminated as the writer of the ransom note. I thought you said CBI eliminated John. What is it? Well someone is lying here then. Tell me how you know Steve Thomas is lying. Please prove it to me and I will recant. I have no problem with that.
Mr. Thomas does not strike me as someone who lies. Patsy Ramsey does though, John Ramsey does and oh yes, Lin Wood has a great way of twisting things such as saying the fact that Lacy went to Patsy's funeral proves she was innocent. Using Lin Wood to back up your argument is scraping the bottom of the Ramsey barraell.
Incidentally, I don't think Steve Thomas left the BPD voluntarily. IMO he was given the choice of resigning or being fired for misrepresenting the true findings of the CBI in regard the results of the handwriting analyses. We are dealing in facts here BlueCrab, not what you think. It is a man's career we are talking about. So lets deal in facts. Can you prove that?
By the way, he stands by his book and never paid a dime to the Ramseys. He would not pay them anything and that was put in the settlement. There would be no settlement if money came out of his pocket.
In regard to Darnay Hoffman's "expert" handwriting analysts, they were
torn apart by Lin Wood during the preliminary hearing, forcing Hoffman to withdraw them and bring the Wolf v Ramsey case to a close. The analysis speaks for itself and it is damning.
