That is IF they were lying (they did pass a polygraph), from all the books out there with information on this case they DID cooperate with investigation. I think the BPD was in error on this case from the get-go and now are trying to blame the Ramsey's, IMO. I think if you put yourself in "their shoes" and really think about it, how would you have reacted given the same exact circumstances and the same shotty police work?
Would I have wanted to take my baby home to bury her in our hometown? YES
Would I have wanted to do that as soon as possible? YES
Would I have given hair and DNA samples the next day? YES
Would I have gone down to the police station that very day when I am still traumatized by seeing/finding my daughter tied up and choked to death? NO, I would have had to been medicated because I would have had a nervous breakdown!
When my daughter was finally buried and I was being told that they suspect me for doing this terrible thing to my baby, would I have been questioned without the advice of an attorney? NO. I am well aware of how people can twist things around and I definitely would have had an attorney FIRST! It is common knowledge, unfortunately, that some police tactics are not always on the up and up, and following the things we have seen in the media involving less than honest police departments, I think that, YES, I would have been quite skeptical and a little bit leary of talking to the BPD right away.
Look, everyone condems them for going to CNN a few days after JB died, but WHO suggested they do that?
Bryan Morgan, a family friend, suggested they needed legal counsel to keep things in perspective, and they agreed. Would you tell your lawyer friend "Nah, I'll pass. Just because some sadistic murderer just killed my child and left her in my house, I think I will pass on having any help from an attorney in any way." ?????
I think that given the circumstances and their high profile lifestyle, etc. they did everything anyone in their position would have done. IMO.
I don't see a cover up. Call me stupid, whatever, I just don't see it.
