UKGuy,
Thanks for your input! I would like to jump forward to 12/26/96: John and Patsy were not supportive of one another. I believe LHP testified to this as well. So, yes I definitely believe JR was having an affair. Once a cheater, always a cheater; as the saying goes.
I’m thinking along the lines of perhaps John was the molester and Patsy caught him. She went to hit John with the flashlight (he saw it coming) jerked out of the way and Patsy struck JonBenét instead.
I also acknowledge the fact that Patsy had to walk on egg shells when it came to John as did the housekeepers. Like JAR and BR; John probably had a short fuse. With that being said, perhaps he laid it out to Patsy you will do as I say or else?
As for the true bills they both were indicted for the same offenses. I read them as both John and Patsy covering for a third person. In your opinion, is this a correct statement?
Rain on my Parade,
Your JDI scenario with Patsy whacking JonBenet means Patsy has a good defense case, i.e. accidental death?
There are grounds for a slightly more coherent case involving JDI, because blaming Burke appears illogical given his age and lack of experience in even formulating this type of offense, i.e. Child Abuse.
Whereas some of the circumstantial evidence could point to an adult male involved in an unhealthy relationship with a child.
There is not much point in enumerating it as it could be regarded as cherry picking the evidence?
One red flag or clue is John's requests to Patsy which she disliked intensely, there is no need for detailed prose here, but your imagination and knowledge that John was likely the
dominant partner can allow you to fill in the blanks.
Things could have gone as you suggest with Patsy missing John and whacking JonBenet. Burke and JonBenet stealing the pineapple is a variation on this theme, as is JonBenet wetting the bed and being whacked by Patsy directly.
As for the true bills they both were indicted for the same offenses. I read them as both John and Patsy covering for a third person. In your opinion, is this a correct statement?
Yes, that is how it appears to me. Although the Counts as they apply to John and Patsy need not be coterminous, or acting in the same time frame, meaning the GJ are not certain who actually killed JonBenet?
Things would be a lot clearer if Burke had reached the age of criminal responsibility, yet even here just consider he might have been hit with the same, exactly worded True Bills that John and Patsy were?
Technically the
person could be any one of the Ramsey's or all three as the Counts are similar.
