ok thx,I wonder if there was blood in her eyes? b/c I remember when that english nanny shook the baby,his name was Matty,if anyone recalls that...there was blood in his eyes from being shaken.I don't recall seeing that anywhere in the autopsy report.
As far as the ponytails..that would require one on each side of her head,right?looking at the artist's drawing,it looks like one is on top of her head,and one right below it..more like to get her hair out of the way to apply the garrotte,IMO.
It would seem so but I can't truly tell where the fracture is. I don't know if you've looked at JonBenet's skull from the autopsy photos, but the depression is towards the back and runs in a "linear" direction toward the front (and another one, though shorter, runs back and slightly downward). At some angles the fracture looks to be toward the top center of the cranium and in others it appears lower down toward the ear. It's also hard for me to tell for sure if the pony tails are dead-on center of the head.
I'm leary of using the drawing because we don't know who drew it or what they used for their "model." I'd rather use photos.
I've also wondered if the original pony tail wasn't the one on top of the head. I have long hair and do mine like that to keep it out of my face and out of my way while I'm sleeping. Like you, I'd also thought the bottom pony tail could be used to keep the hair out of the garotte, but why would someone care if the hair was in the garotte?
Final speculation about hair: maybe it was put on top of her head to keep it from getting wet while she was bathed????
Any ideas on why two pony tails would be needed for any of our above reasons?
