Ditto that. Yet I don't believe the parents killed her.

I never want to get obsessed with cases like this, so I'm sure there are many people who've followed it closer than I have. But for a while there this case was difficult to get a break from.

I don't know that either parent didn't have any complicity in the murder, any more than I know that they did. Of course the ineptness of the police plays a role here, but something was always very wrong (beyond the murder itself). JMHO

Yep. The whole thing was odd. It never added up. Like you; I could never put my finger on it either.

"Inept police" is code for "we don't want to solve this crime."

I feel the same. For me, this is not unlike the Simpson murders, Laci Peterson, that young woman who disappeared in Aruba, Terri Schiavo, Michael Jackson, the so-called Runaway Bride, etc., etc. These cases dominate the news (and, in our home, that's mostly what's on) and become a story far out of proportion. We cannot help but form opinions when we are bombarded; however, in my opinion, it is beyond the norm for outsiders (as we all are, really) to become immersed in any of them, to the point of considering ourselves experts. None of us knows any more than we've been told, usually by/through a source with their own agenda.

I agree...don't know either way; always felt there was something hinky about the parents, and that they might have played a role, if not directly in their daughters' death, then perhaps in covering it up. Obviously, if there was a sufficiency of evidence that that was the case, then the grand jury would have returned an indictment, and they didn't. Given that I acknowledge that I have no direct knowledge about the JonBenet Ramsey murder, I accept that determination as correct.

At this point, and on this occasion, I can't imagine what difference it makes. Either way (involvement or not), I think that Patsy Ramsey's life for the last 10 years must have been incredibly difficult and sorrowful. I wish her Godspeed, and a joyous reuniting with her dear child.
