I was looking at the sole picture I have (taken from the National Enquirer book of Ramsey interrogations) of the kitchen as it was photographed on the morning of December 26th. I ask your feedback for the following interpretation:
The picture below is the overall scene of the kitchen. There is quite a lot of stuff on that table, for example you can clearly see the mixer used to make the Christmas morning pancakes John said were made, so despite Patsy's claim that she cleaned up the kitchen after breakfast, evidence suggests that the table was not wiped off and all cooking items put away in their places.
But upon looking at this picture closely, I believe I see the items I have tagged.
Is that indeed the famous bowl of pineapple? It does seem to be a bowl, it appears to be an ordinary glass bowl, and because it is glass, it does seem to show that inside is a bunch of light-colored material which could be pineapple. Coming out of the bowl is what appears to be a largeish spoon, and if that interpretation is correct, then it also appears that the spoon is in the bowl not with the handle out and spoon in as would be average, but with the spoon out of the bowl and the handle stuck in the pineapple, which would explain why Patsy makes a big deal out of saying that she would never have left it in that "setup."
Then there is that long, black object. Is that the Maglite? If so, it is right near the bowl. Perhaps the flashlight was used to keep a person, whether adult or child, from having to turn the kitchen light on and attract attention, while providing enough light at the table to eat by. This would rather tend to fit with Bluecrab's theory. If the flashlight was turned off right before the person finished eating, someone might have accidentally put the spoon in the bowl upside-down, accounting for why it would be in the bowl in such an unusual way.
Finally, the camcorder. That definitely is a camcorder on the kitchen's breakfast table. I have seen and owned many camcorders, and that part sticking up is the telescoping viewfinder. But why is it in the kitchen, if John and Patsy claim that they knew they would not be using it on Christmas morning? Why was it not in whatever ordinary place it would be stored, a camera bag or closet or such? A breakfast table is not by any stretch of the imagination a usual place to keep such an expensive piece of electronics, and most especially not with the viewfinder extended and children running around. That is a recipe for breaking it right there. It was taken into evidence, so nothing incriminating was found on any tape known to be associated with it, but the tapes camcorders of configuration used are very small, small enough to slip into a coat pocket. Perhaps the camcorder on the table is mute witness supporting the theory proposing suspicions about something untoward having been taped on Christmas morning. It would be nothing at all to swap a different tape into the camcorder, say, a tape of the children washing fruit in that same kitchen, as has been rumored was found in the device.
Anyway, thoughts?
