I was convinced that
Jon Benet Ramsey was killed by a member of the family. My personal
suspect was her brother, with the parents covering for him. The
principle reason I knew it was one of them was evidence that there were
no footprints in the snow around the Ramsey house. Snow that had
fallen on Christmas Eve, prior to her body being found. There is
no way a killer could get in, or out, of the house without
leaving tracks. What I learned by watching this True Crime with Aphrodite Jones
episode; Jon Benet Ramsey
Evidence, is that we were manipulated— lied to by omission of fact,
by police and media.
- The full video of the home taken that morning shows
the back yard, under a canopy of evergreens, had little or no snow.
- The window leading into the part of the basement
where her body was found was in the back yard.
- We were told that window was too small for somebody
to crawl through.
- We were not told
when the retired homicide detective hired by the Ramseys tested that
theory by crawling through it, straightaway.
- We were not told
that this detective found two sets of foot prints in the basement [video].
Neither matched anything the Ramseys owned. One print was
identified as a boot manufactured by HI-TEK.
- We were not told that the Ramseys held a on Christmas
Eve day open house for their community. An estimated 1500-2000
people were in the house, any of whom had an opportunity to scope out
floor plans.
- As to the beauty contests that disgusted so many of
us, we were not told that when Pat Ramsey began that journey, she was
in the fourth stage of cancer (that later went into remission for
awhile). It's not hard to understand a mother wanting cram in all
the activities with her daughter that she could in that circumstance.
There came a point when the Boulder Chief of Police held a press
conference where he stated [paraphrased]
I'm speaking to the person who killed Jon
Benet Ramsey. Our list of suspects is growing smaller every day.
Soon there will only be one person on the list. You!"
The statement was drafted by the FBI in a move designed to disorient
the killer; make him do something overt. The next day a young man
committed suicide. There was reason to believe it was a staged
suicide, but that was never pursued by the police. Ahem. However, police
did find in his house a pair of Hi-TEK boots that matched the print taken
from the basement. They found a stun-gun that was consistent with
the marks found on Jon Benet's body. His DNA however did not match the
stains found on her clothing. Of course none of the Ramsey DNA did
either. So, who wore the second pair of shoes?
I don't have answers to these questions, but I am more than satisfied
that nobody in the Ramsey family did this. I apologize for my
contribution to the public case against them. (I did the same when that
freak John Mark Karr was arrested in 2006, but withdrew it when he
turned out to be a psycho-wannabe.) I also believe that the
Boulder Police Department are rank, arrogant, incompetents, and that
the media are a pack of scum. In that perfect storm, it's a
wonder Jon Benet wasn't posthumously elected president.
