Ramsey said she found a ransom note on the back staircase of the family's home demanding $118,000

I always thought that was odd.

Why $118,000? Why not $100,000, or $150,000?

IIRC, that was the amount of a bonus that Jon Ramsey got that year, or something along those lones...

Wasn't that the amount of Mr. Ramsey's Christmas bonus?

If I recall, $118,000 was the exact amount of a bonus John Ramsey received from his company.

Coincidence?

Because 1 and 1+8 = 19 which, according to Calypso Louis is a very bad number????

I recall having read that that was the exact amount of some kind of bonus that the father had either recently from his employer or had recently been promised by his employer.

If this is,in fact,true that would rule out a stranger IMO.
