I have an almost impossible time thinking Burke committed this cover-up. As a past teacher and parent of two my experience is that kids panic and make poor choices in trying to cover up "bad" behavior. Most times the child will run to an adult or parent seeking help. Burke would not be thinking like an adult and thinking about JonBenets undies, cleaning her up or staging. Burke would be concerned getting away from JonBenet and his parents finding out what he did. His birthday was coming and he would be worried about being punished. Burke was a child he wouldn't have thought about evidence.
Teresa,
Well I don't think BR did it all. I'm proceeding by elimination. If PR redressed JonBenet in the size-12's, how come she offered an inconsistent version of events, never mind realizing the size-12's would never fly, i.e. a red flag?
Similarly with JR except in his case why size-12's and not size-6 underwear, the size-12's are so obviously wrong if you are intending to stage a crime-scene since they are out of place.
Also there were two opportunities to get it right first when JonBenet was redressed then second when she was wiped down, so someone really thought those size-12's were OK?
Bear in mind we are theoretically staging a crime-scene, yet the size-12's are not even JonBenet's proper size, John would know this and correct it, similarly with Patsy?
It could be JR wiped JonBenet not realizing how large the size-12's were, but I can see BR attempting to redress JonBenet and claim she had an accident?
