JonBenet Ramsey case...new evidence from Burke? caution! autopsy photos
#70
Yeah, I'm not certain Burke killed his sister, blueberry. But, he's the likeliest suspect in my book at this point.

And, in this case, I agree with Dr. Spitz (and disagree with the other expert members of the CBS panel). I think that IF Burke did do it, it was not an accident.

If it had been a reactive unintentional death blow to the head because Burke was pissed that JonBenet swiped some of his pineapple, for example, I don't think JonBenet would have been strangled after she was already brain dead, nor had an object inserted in her vagina.........nor would there have been any need for a ransom note to make it appear that an intruder had been in the house. The Ramseys could have just called police and reported the unintentional/accidental death if there was no evidence that Burke intended to hurt/kill his little sister.

We know Burke had hit JonBenet in the face with a golf club in the past. We know that his third grade teacher was called to testify before the secret Grand Jury (we don't know why, but that's an odd witness and I can guess the reason). And, we now know that the Grand Jury actually did indict Patsy and John Ramsey for 'knowingly putting their daughter's life in danger and assisting another party in covering the crime" (my paraphrase -- indictment posted upthread).

I really wonder if there was a known history of violence by Burke before his sister was killed. I also wonder if DA Hunter figured there was no point in pressing charges against John and Patsy because Burke was one month younger than 10 years old, the legal minimum age in Colorado to be able to form intent or be held criminally responsible. Maybe Hunter just figured, 'what's the point?' Especially if John and Patsy made it clear (directly or through implication) that Burke would be getting therapy.

IDK -- just speculating here.
