"...why would her mom use a stun gun on her? Just to torture her?

I'm not saying she did. I don't believe the marks found on JonBenet were the result of a hit by a stun-gun at all. I would tend to believe that they were made by the scaps on her pajamas as put forth by the forensics lab.

And they're abrasions, scratches, not burns.

The Boulder police sought the the input of Denver pathologist Mike Doberson about the stun gun. They claim he discounted the possibility. He says that is not the case:

"MIKE DOBERSEN - That's right - and that was something of a mistatement since my real conclusion was that I couldn't, at that time, say whether this was a stun gun injury or not because we had to have a weapon to compare it to.
NARRATOR - When Smit showed him the Air Tazer stun gun, Doberson took a different position.
MIKE DOBERSEN - Lou had found a weapon with characteristics which fit as exactly as you could expect, the injuries on JonBenét's body.
NARRATOR - Since then, Mike Dobersen has conducted experiments on anaesthetized pigs. The Tazer stun gun exactly replicated the injuries on JonBenét and the distance, 3.5 centimeters, between those injuries.
MIKE DOBERSEN - My experiments, and the observations that we made and all the work that's been done, I feel that I can testify to a reasonably degree of medical certainty that these are stun gun injuries."

If the Boulder police are conducting an impartial investigation, why did they mischaraterize what Dobersen told them? Mind you, this is someone whose expertise they sought. So why are they disregarding it? Because that it doesn't fit into their neat little theory that the Ramseys did it?
