With all of the special information contained in this thread so far, WE still cannot identify 'the' perpetrator enough to slam em into the striped jail cell spa.
I have always been enamored of my thoughts posted so many years ago, about the procedure to stop convulsions in children. I had the link waaaaaaay back then, but it described the procedure used by manual pressure on the carotid artery, OR it described in specific detail the surgery that was used to stop convulsions in children who had specific health problems that caused them to have convulsions.
SOOOOO, given all of that, my suspicion is that 'the' perp used heavy pressure on JBR carotid artery, that caused the large bruise that WE see on JBR neck in the autopsy pictures.
Given that, my thinking has been sorta re arranged to include it in the murder procedure, rather than stopping convulsions caused by loss of breath.
IF the pressure on the carotid artery that caused the bruise (imop) and which is rather supported by UK guys informative post, was part of the murdering activity consider this:
The left hand is quickly placed on her neck (while the victim is upright) with 'the' perps thumb putting heavy pressure on the right side of JBR neck, right on top of the carotid artery, with fingers curled toward her neck, (this fits with Jayelles thought about the ring 'sorta'
**) BUT as this happened, the perps right hand is brought quickly up and covers the victims mouth and nose. At some point JBR loses conscientiousness and causes 'the' perp to lose their balance and they fall on top of JBR, CRASHING to the floor. (causing the skull injury ??) Would the weight of 'the' perp falling on top of JonBenet have been enough to cause the skull injury. I think it is possible, with the violent movement of the anger ? activity.
So, who was angry with JBR, someone who had having little daliances with her in the home, (and had been found out and chastised) or a foreign faction?
IF this activity took place in the furnace room, and JonBenet is struggling violently to escape, she may have pulled enough to throw 'the' perp off balance and screamed, at which point the perps hand went over her mouth, they both lost balance and crashed into the cement wall of the furnace room, causing the skull injury.
The questions are many, but do YOU think this could have caused the skull injury?
** IT sorta fits, but in the fall to the floor, the grip of 'the' perps hand is loosened and the ring shifts and is involved in the fall to the floor, leaving the mark on the side of JBR face.
I am led to this conclusion by UK post that I quote here.
contusion:
a bruise caused by a blow to the muscle, tendon, or ligament; caused when blood pools around the injury and discolors the skin.
Contusions:
The pressure from the assailant's fingers and thumbs may leave bruises in the shape of fingersor, more often, round bruises that match the tips of the fingers and the pads of the thumb. The Medical Examiner typically finds these bruises on the sides of the victim's neck, * but not always. * If the assailant is facing the victim, he/she may use both hands and press his/her thumbs into the recesses where the cartoid ateries lie. In this case, the major bruising appears on either side of the trachea ( wind pipe ), with smaller finger bruises on either side of the victim's neck.
Manual Strangulation: This occurs when someone applies pressure to the victim's neck with a hand, forearm, or other limb, compressing the airway and the cartoid atteries.
I also note that what was perceived as nail marks on the front of JBR's neck and would work in my scenario BUT they would have been at an angle, HUH, er, IF JBR was trying to loosen the grip of 'the' perp when they first grabbed the neck, 'maybe not'.
In any case whatever we speculate, nor what was or is known by the 'authorities' will not or has NOT sent anyone to the striped jail cell spa, via court, yet.
