JR discussed the hum of Burke's aquarium pump. Burke told the psychiatrist that he could hear the house creaking that night.
Maybe Burke did hear something and he stayed awake, under the covers, in his bed, listening as someone took her quietly to the basement.
This is his picture early on Christmas Day. He was a month shy of being 11yo. The Hi-Tech shoeprint in the wine cellar was a size 8 1/2. And at JonBenet's TOD, someone calculated BR would be appx 5' tall. He visited with a psychiatrist for two years following the death of his sister.
Many may hold the belief that JonBenet did not put up much of a fight or resistance as her life was being taken.
I believe she fought valiantly in only the way she could and in the short time she had to do it. JonBenet screamed. Her body was battered with contusions. A freaking garrote was tied into her bleached blond hair. She bled from being digitally penetrated. Maybe she released her bladder because she was frightened. Maybe she knew she was going to die. She had a deep furrow around her neck. She had a deadly skull fracture. It was a brutal killing.
Could it have taken as many as 4 to 5 minutes of pulling on the cord tied around her neck, maybe readjusting and pulling harder, for her death to occur?
I believe she was tricked, or duped, or near death going into that hellhole basement after stopping for a pineapple snack. JonBenet did not go willingly into that good night.
