It makes me so mad that JonBenet was treated this way even before her tragic death. :furious:
Although I could never harm our little girl (or our son) I do understand that people can have dark sides and what makes Patsy so special that she can't have possibly have done this?

PB - Have you read the Newsweek piece?
LHP - No.
PB - At the home of John and Barbara Fernie, Patsy stood up and offered condolences... Let me read what NW has to say about you. They had brought several thick books about crime-scene photos, they showed her a pic of JBR's thermal blanket, it had stains on it, they showed her a pic of JBR's bed, looking at the comforter, the bed looked barely disturbed
LHP - That was my feeling, that the blanket was in the dryer. I think the blanket wasn't on her bed that night. I don't think a stranger would know where the blanket was. the R's didn't even have a hamper, they just left clothes lying around.
PB - Only you and PR knew it was in there. How do you feel about how the R's are trying to put the blame on you?
LHP - It hurts a lot.
PB - YOu were extremely loyal to her.
LHP - I don't believe the intruder theory at all. That door they're talking about was like that for months.
PB - Haddon was either uninformed or was lying to protect his client.
LHP - That door was like that for months before JBR was murdered.
PB - What has changed in your mind in the last 28 months.
LHP - The R's have lied about numerous things. They've lied about the door, they lied about the knife, they lied about the Swiss army knife. I put in the cupboard myself.
PB - What do you know about bed-wetting?
PB - How did they treat bedwetting?
LHP - It didn't come up much, but every time I came in the sheets were already off the bed.
PB - How was PR dealing with it, was she getting more frustrated?
LHP - There's no way JR could be a father and not know about it.
PB - You know at least of three lies. Why would the R's come out with the pry marks as evidence of an intruder. They knew about the Swiss army knife. People need to hear this, particularly the people who believe, for whatever the hell reason, well I don't know why they believe it...
LHP - I asked PR for a loan. I think she must have, because the police asked me about it.
PBn - She says you owe her money.
LHP - She owes ME money.
PB - I asked her about the front door. PR told me all the doors were locked. They also attempted to make your husband a suspect as well.
LHP - He had only been in the house four times. One time to fix closet doors, and one time to put up Christmas lights. Everybody who knows us knows we didn't kill JBR. I have never hurt a child and never would. I loved the whole family.
PB - What is Burke like?
LHP - He's a real quiet little boy.
PB - What have you come away with in this?
LHP - We've been hurt. I loved Patsy so much, I would have done anything for her.
PB - You know she knows you didn't do this. She's trying to set somebody up. This doesn't have anything to do with you, and she must be going through her own personal hell.
LHP - I really cared about her. (crying) I don't believe the blanket was on the bed. There were only two people who knew...
The housekeeper before Hoffman did not think a stranger killed JonBenet.
From Linda Wilcox's 1998 interview:
Well thats arguable. There is a microscopic amount of degraded DNA that is foreign. However there are also a number of fibers that can be sourced to PR's jacket, PR & BR's prints on the bowl of pineapple etc. I could name more but I don't have the energy, sorry.
The majority of the evidence can all be sourced from within the house. There are some pieces of evidence which are ambiguous, thats for sure. However most of the concrete evidence seems to point in one direction. JMO
When I was first reading about this case, I would always read about a "pubic hair" that didn't match any R, found at the crime scene. Why is that never mentioned? I'm just curious. Was it dismissed?
From "Foreign Faction - Who Really Kidnapped JonBenet?" by James Kolar
One particular sample of hair collected from the blanket that had been wrapped around JonBenet's body had initially given the appearance of being a pubic hair. Investigators thought this might belong to a male perpetrator. The FBI was later able to identify this as an axillary hair (underarm, back, chest) and determined it did not come from the pubic region of the body.
Mitochondrial DNA tests were run on this hair, and the FBI technicians determined that the hair shaft did not belong to an unidentified stranger. Patsy Ramsey could not be excluded as the source of the hair, and it was noted that it could have come from either her or someone else in her maternal lineage.
That's what's so puzzling about this case. The behavioral/circumstantial evidence points to the family's involvement, yet the forensic evidence (or lack thereof) points elsewhere.
