Says who? that the bed smelled like pee???
And Maybe ML discounted his theory because it did not fit the evidence they already had.
When you have DNA that points to someone you can't say.. well we have DNA and Tdna that points to someone but we are going to charge the parents because well they live there.
I am trying to figure out the peed her pants every day proof.
And if that was true I am sure it would have been reported at school.. Was it?
So does anyone care to discuss?
I think the painted/cleaned is an odd thing to mix up. If the basement was painted though it would have been noticeable.
the home tour was a year earlier, and the water damage on the top floor when pipes burst (but that wasn't anything approaching recent IIRC)I do too. Was there anything in the house that had been painted recently?
There are items missing from the crime scene, so of course the toilet was taken apart and removed.
Is there poop smeared on the bathroom wall? That seems a fabrication, to me. Would poop smeared on the bathroom be evidence of some sort related to the crime? Not unless The Mad Crapper murdered Jonbenet. And, I dont think that happened.
Its strange what we get out of these things. To me, it seems that the intent behind showing Mrs Ramsey the photographs is to see whether or not Mrs Ramsey notices anything out of place. She notices the tissue, which she surmises may have been a cleaning rag left by LHP.
The bathroom pictures are 242, 43 and 44 and 45 together.
The picture of the wall with smears is 205.
PATSY RAMSEY: ...There are a bunch
25 of smears on here.

1 TRIP DEMUTH: Pointing to 205.
2 PATSY RAMSEY: Right.
More on picture 205:
2 TOM HANEY: On 202.
3 PATSY RAMSEY: This is the grate over that
4 window.
5 TRIP DEMUTH: This is just in sequence.
6 TOM HANEY: 203, just another shot. 204.
7 TRIP DEMUTH: Could John have cut that?
8 PATSY RAMSEY: Could have, yeah.
9 TRIP DEMUTH: That is in photo 204 there is
10 some scrape mark toward the bottom of the doorjamb.
11 PATSY RAMSEY: Where the dog could have
12 scratched.
13 TRIP DEMUTH: 205.
14 PATSY RAMSEY: That is all chipped out.
15 TOM HANEY: Is that unusual?
16 PATSY RAMSEY: It looks unusual to me. I
17 didn't do it.
18 TOM HANEY: Do you recall though, was this
19 prior damage?
20 PATSY RAMSEY: Prior damage, oh --
21 TOM HANEY: Prior to December 26 of 1996.
22 PATSY RAMSEY: I can't say for sure. I don't
23 know. I don't remember that.
24 TOM HANEY: That is that door -- correct me
25 if I am wrong -- leading into the kitchen area.
0406
1 PATSY RAMSEY: The back hall.
2 TRIP DEMUTH: Right to the patio.
3 PATSY RAMSEY: Yeah.
4 TOM HANEY: Do you know who caused that?
5 PATSY RAMSEY: I just don't remember having
6 it.
7 TOM HANEY: Okay. Now there was some
8 information out in the media about damage to the door
9 or something like that.
10 PATSY RAMSEY: This door?
11 TOM HANEY: Well, I assume that that is the
12 one we are talking about, are you familiar with that?
13 PATSY RAMSEY: Huh-uh. (inaudible).
14 PATRICK BURKE: If you don't know.
15 PATSY RAMSEY: I don't know.
16 TOM HANEY: 205 we have. 206 is just another
17 shot of it with the scale in it which is the police.

Apparently no proof is needed. It's part of the "basic information in the case and something that has been known publicly and discussed on the forums for years" so we're supposed to accept it as fact.
I'm skeptical that JBR wet and soiled herself everyday.
MOO.
I think its possible that the pictures were being laid out on a table, or something, as they were being shown, and that Mrs Ramseys eyes wandered back to 205 while 242, 43 and 44 and 45 together were being discussed. IOWS, although the conversation had move on to the bathroom, she was still looking (or thinking) back to the earlier photos noticed the smears, mentioned them and, than the conversation is brought back to the BBR.Anti-K, I see what you're saying, and it's very interesting; yet it's hard to know what to make of that part of the interview in light of the portion Venom quoted in #931. There, even though photo 205 is referenced, Patsy is clearly talking about the basement bathroom:
TRIP DEMUTH: Look at all those pictures,
16 242, 43 and 44 and 45 together.
17 PATSY RAMSEY: This is the little bathroom in
18 the basement.
19 TOM HANEY: Anything out of place or unusual
20 in those photos?
21 PATSY RAMSEY: Well, the bathroom we hadn't
22 utilized very much. These little Christmas decorations
23 were left over from -- I had put those there when we
24 had the home tour two years earlier, because the
25 volunteers used this area and I had a bathroom
0408
1 available. [still referencing the basement bathroom; hereafter, BBR]
2 TRIP DEMUTH: That photo 244 was shut, is
3 that how you left them?
4 PATSY RAMSEY: Well, that, yes. I would have
5 left that. I left it like that.
6 Now this, I don't know what that is -- why
7 that would be there.
8 TRIP DEMUTH: Pointing to like tissue.
9 PATSY RAMSEY: It is like tissue something,
10 because I remember I specifically asked Linda some time
11 in the not-so-distant future to go down and clean that
12 bathroom [still the BBR]because I think one of the boys had used the
13 bathroom and not flushed it. It was kind of yucko, so
14 she had gone down there. So I don't know if that is
15 her cleaning rag she left there or what.
16 TOM HANEY: Do you know for a fact that she
17 did clean it, could she have been in there since?
18 PATSY RAMSEY: No. I don't remember that too
19 much about that bathroom.
20 TOM HANEY: When you were present she wasn't
21 in there?
22 PATSY RAMSEY: No. The door was usually
23 closed because that -- that door [to the BBR]opens right when you
24 came down those steps[the steps down to the basement]. (Inaudible). There are a bunch
25 of smears on here.[still referencing the BBR]
0409
1 TRIP DEMUTH: Pointing to 205.
2 PATSY RAMSEY: Right.
3 TOM HANEY: Do you recall seeing anything
4 like that there before seeing that?
5 PATSY RAMSEY: No, because I had that whole
6 downstairs painted, I mean cleaned.[still referencing the basement]
7 TRIP DEMUTH: When was that?
8 PATSY RAMSEY: Well, 1994, before that home
9 tour, Christmas home tour.
10 TRIP DEMUTH: Who used that bathroom? [the BBR]
11 PATSY RAMSEY: The boys. You know, Burke and
12 Evan were down there playing with the trains. They
13 would go in there and use it. [We know the bathroom at line 10 is still the BBR because of Patsy's answer]
How about some pictures? We haven't had any for a while.
Here's the BBR door. When open, it would block passage from the stairs, just as Patsy described, so it's easy to see why it was kept closed.
And here's the door from the back hall opening to the patio, with the window well grate in view.
In the portion of your quote that I've bolded, 205 refers to this door to the patio. They're discussing some chipping damage, and no one mentions smears or dirt. Obviously, the two doors/locations can't be the same, despite the numbering, and the smears go with the BBR door, while the chipping goes with the patio door. What do you make of it? Do you think there could be an error in the picture numbering, or that Haney and DeMuth misread the numbers - or that the transcript has a typo? The descriptions line up with the two locations. As far as I can tell, it's the duplication of the 205 that doesn't make sense.

So does anyone care to discuss?
I think the painted/cleaned is an odd thing to mix up. If the basement was painted though it would have been noticeable.
Soo maybe she realized that, but only after considering painting it?
22 PATSY RAMSEY: No. The door was usually
23 closed because that -- that door opens right when you
24 came down those steps. (Inaudible). There are a bunch
25 of smears on here.
