You're absolutely correct!
This was a " sexual homicide ". Jonbenet was sexually violated, penetrated, before she was brutally strangled to death. DNA was left in her underwear that did not match the father or the brother. The fracture to her skull was post mortem, probably a coup de gras. I also think it was done with a metal baseball bat that was found in an alleyway in back of the house. In any case the boy was too young and didnt kill her. And the mother did not use a garrot and strangle her daughter because she wet the bed. Look at the autopsy photos. This was a brutal sexually motivated killing.
I've been here for years longer than you have been, and he's right, and you're wrong. So I wouldn't be so quick to sling the newbie slur if I were you.
One thing that will probably go on for the rest of mankind are young women flaunting their newfound sexuality and older women sneering their disapproval. The problem is that these women are getting bolder and bolder about it, influencing younger siblings and probably inviting fantasies in men that they don't fully realize the consequences thereof.
Sort of reminds me of that case where some Spring Break partier was riding down the beach in a car flashing her boobs at everyone. A group of guys came around for a closer look and one of them eventually opened the car door and had sex with her. His friends videotaped it. She then reports the incident as rape to the police. There was a much-heated debate on FR about just how culpable the flaunter was for what happened and just how culpable the young man was. As you might expect, many of the male posters blamed the woman and many of the female posters blamed the man.
It all comes down to a competition for attention among young girls and the lengths they'll go to get it. Yet, in pushing the envelope for attention, some women don't seem to get what dangers they are inviting upon themselves and, it seems, some must be taught only by experience and not by the advice of their elders.
"If a husband chooses the wrong woman to marry, that is still not important enough to lessen sentences of first time offenders. Sorry, if that sounds cold blooded."
There are too many man-hating people in our society for me to feel sheilded from false accusations. Sorry for me to say so, but we are a divided society; no trust.
Repeat offenders become apparent, by repeated criminality. The prisons would be full of men if it were just one-strike you're gone.
A teen-ager can figure out a way around almost anything, I know. I make sure I check out what she has on before she walks out the door.If you can't stop 'em, slow 'em down.LOL May I borrow your Dad's saying for any future clashes?
And for the record,she doesn't have to wear stuff she hates as long as it covers a reasonable number of body parts. She leans toward jeans and athletic,college team shirts. But, every now and then,she gets a wild idea and wants to push the limits. That's just normal as I see it. Her "job" is to test us...then surrender.LOL
I'm not accusing the brother, personally, I think it was an ouside stalker, but my point is that the screw up, instead of eliminating him as a suspect, did the opposite, and allowed everyone to be tainted with (probably false) suspicion.
With a compromised scene, anyone who is there can't be reasonably eliminated, her father and his buddy finding her body had negative consequences.
Its a tragedy, I do think he is innocent, but he will never be free from speculation due to the inability of the police screw up and the fact that he was there.
I can't imagine going through life as an innocent man being accused of the most heinous crime simply because I was in the wrong place and someone else screwed up so badly, that its quite belivable that I am guilty.
"Its an arguement used quite often, to prevent all jail terms from being raised and to grant lower terms to first time offenders."
Granted. The level of evidence, IMO, would have to be very high for a first time conviction to lead to such a long term jail outcome.
People are put to death when there is, theoritically, any shadow beyond doubt that they are guilty. Throwing people in jail for the rest of their lives on a first offence is police state.
ping...
Very well said. Pretty much sums up how I feel about the subject.
The environment in which the brother grew up would have a significant impact on his response to any jealousy he felt about his sister receiving more attention. To some extent, children learn how to respond to events in life from the way people around them behave. So a child growing up in an area with very little violence would tend to be much less violent than a child growing up in a violent area (all else being equal).
Actually, in 4 years she wins it all.
I think the whole little girl pageant culture is inappropriate.
"Stage Makeup" - that is makeup used so that faces don't wash out under stage lights can be done properly so that when a picture is taken someone doesn't look ... well "made up"...
In pageants it's very apparent that the goal is to make the little girls look like 20 somethings... it's a culture I just don't understand... why in the world make little ones look older than they are? It's sexualization far too young.
If Patty Ramsey wrote the note, then someone in that household killed the girl, and all other evidence is suspect.
Last I heard, if you looked real hard, you MIGHT find three handwriting experts on the planet who would testify that the handwriting WASN'T AN EXACT MATCH.
You do realize Wagglebee did not write the article, don't you???
As a homeschooling parent, let me assure you that homeschooling is no vacine against teen angst or rebellion.
Thanks. That site isn't working on my machine.
(blushing and bowing)
Thank you, Ma'am!
They make me prouder every day!
