For your bookmarking assistance, this is a reference list of links to the Aug 2006 or newer Free Republic threads on the topic of the JonBenet Ramsey murder case and the possible arrest of John Mark Karr as a suspect in her murder.
Can you compare CTM compilation of crimes to the list of movies that were made about actual crimes?
I read that Jon Benet was still in Rigor when John Ramsey brought her up. Do you know what the time frame is on that?
Of course you might hang onto loved ones letters, etc.. some do, but not all, however most people throw away letters from people they don't quite care for.
I'll have to read what was said - the gruesome knowledge statement had been discounted a few days ago, by someone in Keenan's office, maybe Nagel.
Since the coroner didn't even know about the head blow until he peeled back her scalp, the only thing Karr could know, if he did the crime, is the truth about the actual weapon used which didn't break the skin.
If he says a fireplace poker or something similar, I'll comment.
Average onset 3-4 hours after death, reaches fullness at about 12 hours and leaves at about 36.
Warm tempatures can delay it, cool tempatures hasten it.
If it's a gruesome murder, no one thinks it's the upscale parents who were responsible - they focus on a monster, after the parents are cleared. Parents weren't, in this case.
Thanks.
The speculation of these reporters are astonishing....it is public record that her head wound wasn't discovered until the autopsy...there was no bleeding or swelling....what this reporterette meant by *gruesomeness*, I have no idea.
Oh, I have letters from people I don't care for; I've kept them to remind me WHY I should still be angry at them. And I doubt that I am alone in this.
How active the deceased's muscles were at the time of death hastens RM. The Yates child who fought the hardest had already started into rigor when the ME got there just 4 hours later.
1:05 PM, 12/26/96
I think most local people agree with me
The "be well rested" comment was to make them think that the "tomorrow" in the note was supposed to be 12/27/96, the day after the note was found - this is the Ramsey explanation for why the ransom call never came and they weren't expecting one.
If the note were written on the 25th, which would be the logical conclusion, with parents in the home who heard nothing, "tomorrow" would be the 26th - the day the note was found, which would be expected by the leaver of the note on the stairs the parents used in the morning.
And leave your dead baby on the floor of your house alone? I don't think so.
Who?
Good point. But the rigor mortis in JBR does nothing to change any time of death because generally points to the same time frame that she was missing.
Interesting - Nagel said there was more than just the "Mr & Mrs Ramsey" which was printed on the practice note.
The rest of it was deciphered from the indentations on the paper and that info has not been released. (I've never seen or heard the content of the pressure indentations, that I can recall.)
They're going to ask him what it originally said and why he made the corrections he made. Hmmm.
Yes, just saying to consider it, because it was not a well known factor at the time of her death.
