I just finished reading the *entire* deposition of Linda Arndt. She's in the "Ramseys did it" theory group. She said she 'knew it' the minute she saw JR bring JBR up from the basement b/c, partly, he was holding her oddly. He had her held up more from the abdomen up, and upright, so that her head was above his. Hmmmm...
Maybe it's an artifact of reading a deposition but she seemed rude, combative and evasive in the deposition and met with PR w/o telling anybody. Kinda odd. She seemed certain that JR had been sexually abusing JBR for a long time and that he had killed her. Anyway, there was a point in the interiew where the official (lawyer - judge?) for the court asked her if comments by co-workers that she was rude were true. She said that that is subjective. The official replied, "well, I guess it speaks for itself". I thought that was hilarious.
Just thought it was interesting. I didn't read much that would tell us much more other than it was clear that she (who was the only LE there at the time) could not account for his actions from 10:40 a.m. to noon.
She was a good cop who was given no back-up that day. She was there to help the Ramseys in a traumatic situation and John treated her like she was invisible and ignorant.
Her forté was working with female and child victims of violent crime, for which the department had awarded her.
When all the bad breaks happened because of the Ramsey crime, she was made a scapegoat by the whole department and blamed for foul-ups that weren't her fault. She wasn't even given the handbook for the very rare crime of kidnapping for ransom. None of the other cops or her boss or anyone helped her.
It was a very unfortunate situation. The perp of this crime got some incredibly lucky breaks and they started with the very first patrol cop who answered the call that morning, long before Arndt got there.
