    Interviews, Video and Timeline??

    You can find the video interviews of Patsy and John that were aired way back when on courttv's site. On the left-hand side, there is a sub-heading, "Videos," with the links. They are in realplayer format.

    Learn Something New Every Day

    Well, you have to wait until a trial when an attorney tries to admit statements to determine if they are admissible. As I said before, it all depends on what the statements are being used to prove. However, the examples you cited really couldn't be used to prove much aside from their truth...

    Learn Something New Every Day

    Another fine (yet confusing) point of the law surrounding hearsay: statements are only considered hearsay if they are offered to prove the truth of the matter asserted. In other words, the ransom note could be admitted at any trial regardless of who wrote it to show any number of things aside...

    It is still hearsay, because they are "out-of-court" statements. Hearsay, as a general matter, is not admissible because it is typically less reliable than firsthand statements made under oath. So while these are technically "firsthand" statements, the declarant (i.e., Patsy) is not available...

    Learn Something New Every Day

    a quick legal lesson... this all has to do with hearsay and the confrontation clause. hearsay refers to statements made outside of the courtroom that are sought to be used in the courtroom. (e.g., patsy's taped interviews are a good example if there was ever a trial) these are generally...

    Ann Rule's site

    Famous author Ann Rule recently chimed in on the JBR case on her webblog. She sort of goes through a number of different theories and probably doesn't know the details of this case as well as many here do, but it's a somewhat interesting read, nonetheless. It can be found here...

    The Importance of the Pineapple

    I find it absolutely laughable that anyone would question that this was indeed pineapple. There is only one reason to question it: because it makes your client look like they've been lying. And where does Wood come up with this digestive time for pineapple is so varied? There is nothing...

    The Importance of the Pineapple

    A simple Google search showed to me that pineapple is one of the easiest foods to digest. Most websites I found put its digestion time at 2-3 hours. In fact, it is often eaten as an AID to digestion. I realize that we'll never know EXACTLY when JBR consumed the pineapple, but it seems like if...

    Food for thought..........

    I always found the statement "I advise you to be rested" to be a very significant statement. It seems so out of place. Why would a kidnapper/molester/extortionist/murderer/whatever-you-want-to-call-him care if the Ramseys were rested? It sounds more like a wife speaking to her husband...

    DOUBLE LOOP KNOT: JonBenet was posed

    Tape on the legs? John's '97 interview: TT: When you saw the white blanket, was JonBenet completely covered up? How was she laying there, cause I wasn’t there that day. JR: She was laying on the blanket, and the blanket was kind of folded around her legs. And her arms were tied behind...

    Separating FACT from fiction - Discussion

    In reading the interviews, I see John as the first person to ever use the word "papoose." If I am incorrect, please post the portion of the interview which shows otherwise. As this is a thread for facts (and not debate), I'll gladly remove/edit my post to conform with undisputed facts.

    Separating FACT from fiction - Discussion

    FACT: Nobody put the words "papoose" in John Ramsey's mouth. MIKE KANE: All right. Okay. Now, when you 9 went inside to that room, you described the 10 blanket. And you said it was folded like -- I'm 11 just trying to get a mental picture of it. Was it 12 like -- 13 JOHN RAMSEY: It was...

    Separating FACT from fiction - Discussion

    I have edited my above post to reflect the proper timing of the release of that information. I don't follow your statement regarding one print id'ed, one unknown. Are you saying there were two palm prints on the doorknob? I am adding additional information, because I think Judge Carnes'...

    Separating FACT from fiction - Discussion

    The aforementioned palmprint has since been identified as that of Melinda Ramsey, but she has been officially cleared as a suspect in the case. This was told to numerous media outlets by investigators and first reported by Charlie Brennan in August of 2002.

    "I would never do that!"

    To me, this is one of the most significant things in the case. It just makes no sense that JR would not mention this to police, innocent or guilty. This would either further the investigation or the diversion, depending on how you look at it. But, there is a problem with finding JR's...

    TeamRamsey Hoax

    Yes, that is me. I don't post there often, but there are many true crime buffs on that forum, and many of them are not up to speed on the Ramsey case. They'll catch a glimpse of that "documentary" and post questions in the JBR thread. I just try to keep the correct information circulating...

    "I would never do that!"

    If Fleet's assertion is correct, then IMO, there are only two possibilities. Fleet is the perp or JR is the perp and he moved the body into that room later in the morning. Putting Fleet aside for a second, where could/would JR have moved the body from? I've heard mention of a crawl space, but...
