No signs of forced entry into the house and no foot tracks in snow around the house, hummm.

It was a “small foreign faction”. And everyone knows that inside the house you kill the kid, on Christmas when everyone in the world is home. Then you hide the body in the basement. Then you sit down and write a long, detailed nutty note asking for ransom in the exact amount of the man’s recent bonus.
And when your young daughter is found murdered, you leave town as quickly as you can.

It’s pretty obvious to me that either the psycho mom did it on some accidental rage of some kind, OR the creeper brother did it and mom and dad decided they lost one kid, they were rich, and they would just cover it up so they didn’t lose both.

Had it happened anywhere but Boulder, their story would have been shredded.

I disagree. It was bungled by Boulder police. And I mean badly.

You’re exactly right. The Boulder police bungled it from the start.

I’m willing to suspend disbelieve on a lot of things, but this aspect of the case has always bothered me. They were well off - why not write a note asking for a million or some other round figure? Why ask for the exact amount of his bonus???

The Boulder police really messed this one up. Even a 5th grader would question the ransom note.

Definitely. That note was beyond the ability of any logic to suspend disbelief. The family did it, probably the mom.

Though you were a minute ahead, I swear I didn’t read your post above mine first.

Definitely bungled. But what they bungled was not getting the evidence that was certainly there that could have put away Patsy and the the brother.
Patsy wrote the note.

That cover story was a total fake that only a Boulder DA would take seriously.

Exactly. Either mom did it in some nutty rage moment, or the nutty brother who had already beaned her with a gold club a few years before finally accidentally hit her skull with something else. In that case mom was covering up so she wouldn’t lost both kids.

The Ramsey family scam could have only worked in a place as backwards mentally as Boulder.

I too could go with either scenario.

Remember when Jon Benet’s dad hooked up with Natalee Holloway’s mom? That was weird.

I originally thought it Patsy Ramsey but now I lean toward the brother with Patsy covering up for him.

Don’t think that’s a totally accurate statement. That was the ARGUMENT of some of the police but not necessarily the evidence.

At any rate, I don’t think the brother was ever seriously considered a suspect.

As a movie buff, it’s also funny that this note is full of movie lines from “Dirty Harry” and also from “Speed” that was released a year or two before.

“Mr. Ramsey: Listen Carefully! We are a group of individuals that represent a small foreign faction. We respect your business, but not the country it serves.

At this time, we have your daughter in our possession. She is safe and unharmed and if you want her to see 1997, you must follow our instructions to the letter.

You will withdraw $118,000 from your account. $100,000 will be in $100 bills and the remaining $18,000 in $20 bills. Make sure that you bring an adequate size attache to the bank.

When you get home, you will put the money in a brown paper bag. I will call you between 8 and 10 a.m. tomorrow to instruct you on delivery. The delivery will be exhausting so I advise you to be rested. If we monitor you getting the money early we might call you early to arrange an earlier delivery of the money and hence and earlier pickup of your daughter.

Any deviation of my instructions will result in the immediate execution of your daughter. You will also be denied her remains for a proper burial. The two gentlemen watching over your daughter do not particularly like you so I advise you not to provoke them.

Speaking to anyone about your situation, such as police or F.B.I. will result in your daughter being beheaded. If we catch you talking to a stray dog, she dies. If you alert bank authorities, she dies. If the money is in way marked or tampered with, she dies. You can try to deceive us, but be warned we are familiar with law enforcement countermeasures and tactics.

You stand a 99% chance of killing your daughter if you try to outsmart us. Follow our instructions and you stand a 100% of getting her back. You and your family are under constant scrutiny, as well as the authorities.

Don’t try to grow a brain John. You are not the only fat cat around so don’t think that killing will be difficult. Don’t underestimate us, John. Use that good, Southern common sense of yours. It’s up to you now John! Victory! S.B.T.C.”

Children’s beauty pageants should be outlawed. I don’t even want to look at past pictures of JonBenet. All in makeup and dresses and crap. What kind of parents would do that to a six year old?
