You know Callan, I started following this case about 6 months in as here in the UK there wasnt obviously as much coverage as in the US and in all the years since I believed an intruder did it BUT over the last 12 months my opinions have changed-partly through reading these forums and partly my own common sense.Whilst I disagree with certain conclusions reached and feel a lot of discussions go on about largely irrelevant points on the whole I cannot disagree with the opinion Patsy did it.What I feel happened is this:
After a long,tiring day JonBenet falls asleep in the car on the way home from the Whites,whether she then walks in or was carried is beside the point I feel as at some point she was awake,she possibly woke when Patsy was changing her clothes.JB is then hungry so Patsy gives her the pineapple and either her or Burke have the tea.JR and BR play with his toys and Patsy puts the pillow at the foot of JBs bed and lets her watch a video whilst Patsy is down the hall packing for the trip.At some point she checks JB,sees she has fallen asleep and wet the bed.Tired,stressed,infuriated she sees red and grabs JB,a tussle ensues causing the curtain tie back to come loose and the hair ties to be knocked over.During the struggle she flings JB round hard and hits her head on the bedpost of the spare bed (take a look at the shape of those and how they curve outwards).JB is unconscious so Patsy lifts her onto the bed,gets John,they get Burke to bed and out of the way.PR and JR go downstairs to the kitchen,Patsy uses the tissues as she is crying.JR goes into CEO mode and they form the plan to pass it as a kidnapping gone bad.All the pertinent equipment is gathered,some perhaps rejected eg the rope,they go upstairs and JR carries JB down the spiral stairs to the cellar getting garland strands in her hair on the way down.They lay her outside the WC and fashion the garrote,strangling her with it and inserting the paintbrush inside her.Patsy writes the RN by which time time has run out and they call 911 and we all know what followed.
I realise of course this is a simplistic version of what probably happened but I would think its a logical version and JMHO.:twocents:
