There's nothing they can do that would change that. Talking to police that only want to convict them will do nothing. They don't know who the killer is, so there's nothing they can do to help. The police were obviously not going to look at anyone else, and were pretty dirty in their tactics - they did all they could with the media to try to get priorities focused where they should be, looking at other suspects. As far as duty - I wouldn't ever dare say that to someone whose child has just been murdered, to suggest that their duty is to put their grieving on hold, set yourself up to go to jail for no reason, as your duty. And with police looking at the wrong suspect, your duty to other innocent children is not to cooperate with police, it's to fight to refocus them on the real perpetrator, not to indulge their fantasy that you did it, and talk to them until they can find something to twist to use against you, to waste even more resources that should be going to finding the real killer.Nedthan Johns said:vengance against the killer isn't the first thing you think of, it's not your top priority as it is when trying to catch the kidnapper to find your child still alive - grief is the first priority, and your remaining family.
Ned: Hmmmm... how about a sense of helping other children who may be at risk by the hands of this murderer? Don't the Ramsey's have a duty to cooperate with police fully to help protect other innocent children?
Now John is threatening to leave the country?
When do the Ramsey's stop caring about themselves and start caring about their child and other children?
Wow - Ramsey seems very powerful - you think even now he can find the killer, he has more things to say that will find this intruder, and save other innocent children? It makes no sense. IMHO, you don't want him to leave because you believe he did it or one of the other Ramsey's did - that's the only way he could be of more use in the investigation, if he's hiding something. If he's told the truth all along, then his usefulness is done, and has been for a long time.
