The volume on BDI is very loud right now, but I don't completely like the sound. (I'm not BDI) Kolar's book and theory are great. I was thrilled with the CBS special because we were finally getting to see evidence that wasn't so blatantly dismissive of RDI. And the BDI theory is plausible. There's a lot of logic to it.
There are, however, psychological issues that no one has really dived into here that may explain Burke's behavior. I'm not talking about the Dr Phil interview, but his childhood behavior.
The Dr Phil interview was a trainwreck. Good Morning America also comment on it
http://abcnews.go.com/US/da-opens-cleared-ramsey-family-jonbenets-murder/story?id=43106426. GMA was only parroting what everyone here on WS was saying for a long time. Nevertheless, I saw Burke as being scared to death during the DP interview. His smile and his nervousness were a defense. And no, I'm not saying he's guilty or innocent. I also believe he was being deceptive during the interview about some things.
One of the things that bothers me was the introduction of the flashlight. John and Patsy denied knowing anything about it. Now Burke brought it into the game (Burke actually didn't say the words on camera but Dr Phil did). Why? To mix metaphors here, I think he brought it into the game to take if off the table. He put the flashlight into John's hands that night. John and Patsy had nothing to do with the flashlight and there it is. This was 20 years later. I can't help to think that this wasn't done by accident. So what might come out to put the flashlight into John's hands? Why the foreshadowing? And then why put Burke onto the 1st floor at the same time his sister was being murdered? He's covering. I can't help but think he jumped into the path of the bullet because he's wearing a vest.
Yes, I am a crazy conspiracy theorist. I hang out here and obsess about a 20 year old murder mystery.
All my opinion, of course.
