I've favored the theory that the murder was committed by pedophiles who watched the pageants and were obsessed with JonBenet; its just really hard to delve into this subject of pedophilia because it's so revolting and abhorhent, but we need to if we are going to understand. Here is a little from this Wikipedia page, which is excellent:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedophiles
There are different kinds of pedophiles:
Krafft-Ebing also authored a three-fold model of child molesters, these three types being
- a.) pedophile,
- b.) surrogate (that is, the child is regarded as a surrogate object for a preferred, non-available adult object), and
- c.) sadistic.
Individually referring to v. Krafft-Ebing's three types as
- a.) preferential/structured/fixed (i. e. pedophile) type,
- b.) situational/opportunistic/regressed/incest (i. e. surrogate) type, and
- c.) sadistic (no change),
Occurrence in child sex offenders
A perpetrator of
child sexual abuse is, despite all medical definitions, commonly assumed to be a pedophile, and referred to as such; however, there may be other motivations for the crime
[19] (such as stress, marital problems, or the unavailability of an adult partner
[32]), much as adult
rape can have non-sexual reasons. Thus, child sexual abuse alone may or may not be an indicator that its perpetrator is a pedophile; most perpetrators of it are in fact not primarily interested in children.
[33]
Those who have committed
sexual crimes against children, but do not meet the normal diagnosis criteria for pedophilia, are referred to as
situational,
opportunistic, or
regressed offenders, whereas offenders primarily attracted toward children are called
structured,
preferential, or
fixated pedophiles, as their orientation is fixed by the structure of their personality. It is estimated that only 2 to 10 percent of child sexual abuse perpetrators meet the regular criteria for pedophilia. (Kinsey-Report, Lautmann, Brongersma, Groth).
As noted by Abel, Mittleman, and Becker
[34] (1985) and Ward et al. (1995), there are generally large characteristical distinctions between the two types of offenders. Situational offenders tend to offend at times of stress; have a later onset of offending; have fewer, often familial victims; and have a general preference for adult partners. Pedophilic offenders, however, often start offending at an early age; often have a large number of victims who are frequently extrafamilial; are more appetitively driven to offend; and have values or beliefs that strongly support an offense lifestyle.

What kind do you think JMK is? No one can convince me that he is the sadistic type! He's got to be another type. A sadistic type did this murder.
