I don’t have any theories other than the obvious - a person or persons within the house committed the crime.
The whole thing is bizarre.
Your daughter is missing and you throw a house party with all the friends and neighbors invited - who does that?
You mentioned John Ramsey knowing where to go when he was told by police to search the place. He said he had searched it before but the first time he didn’t bother checking out the basement room where the body was found. I’ve searched harder for a lost TV remote. In this case it was a missing child - anybody who’s even just babysat a little child knows they get into the dangdest places.
Just so many things that don’t add up.
Yes. Your child is missing, there’s a ransom note on the stairs saying the kidnappers will call...but when nobody calls, you don’t seem anxious. You even seem to have forgotten your daughter has been “ kidnapped.”
You casually go thru your mail, and call a private pilot to arrange a flight to Atlanta ?!? Oh well, if she turns up, maybe she can come along!?!
Also I noticed the “kidnapper” shifts back and forth between singular and plural. It goes from “we” are a foreign faction, then it’s “I” will do thus and such to “your daughter.” Again, an obvious attempt to point to a culprit outside the family, but can’t keep the story straight because it’s so obviously false.
It’s typical, too, of parents to say “my daughter” when a child is doing well, but “your daughter” (to the other parent) when a child has misbehaved.
IOW, my daughter is a beauty queen. Your daughter caused all this.
There are a LOT of clues in that note.
All of the clues point to the Ramseys, and many, like “your daughter” suggest Patsy was trying to equally implicate John in order to keep him quiet.
Another clue is the level of violence in the threats directed at Jonbenet herself. This suggests Patsy blames JBR for making her angry in the first place.
The violence of the threats in the note are matched by the violence that was in fact done to JBR’s body. It makes sense that whoever was capable of threatening “she will die” and “she will be beheaded” did in fact cause the child’s brutal death, likely before the note was written.
I’ve always thought it was Patsy; Jonbenet may have wet the bed, again, and Patsy just went postal.
That’s the simplest, and to me, most plausible, scenario.
