Based on my research, I have come a conclusion that Burke, John, and Patsy Ramsey played apart in JonBenet’s murder. Burke Ramsey, JonBenet’s brother who was inside the residence after returning home with his parents from Christmas dinner with friends, may have accidentally knocked his sister JonBenet Ramsey unconscious over the head with a flashlight during a feud over a bowl of pineapples. (Augenstein, 2016) Burke was not asleep upon returning home as John and Patsy reported to the Boulder’s Detectives. Boulder’s Detectives noticed in the kitchen during their investigation a flashlight on the counter top possibly a weapon used to strike JonBenet in the head. According to the autopsy, JonBenet received a fracture to the skull from a blunt …show more content…
Brother Bucke was already jealous of JonBenet because she was receiving all the attention from both parents. For Christmas in 1996, JonBenet received the best present for Christmas. However, according to John and Patsy Ramsey in during an interview with Boulder’s Detectives, Burke was asleep the entire time after Patsy observing the ransom note indicating JonBenet Ramsey had been kidnapped by a foreign group of individuals. (Boulder New, 1999) During the 911 call Patsy Ramsey made to Boulder’s Police Department dispatcher Kim Archuletta; nonetheless, she could hear a child’s voice in the background while speaking with Patsy. (McClish, 2016) Boulder’s Detectives listened to the 911 recording and heard a child’s voice in the background as well, which they could have easily exposed the 911 tape, but somehow it never came into evidence. (McClish, 2016) A voiceprint analysis unit who transform speech into visual display called voice print could have been used to determine which child's voice was overheard in the background from the 911 call. (Saferstein,
Some think the family wrote the note since it seemed to have been rewritten several times, but the intruder was most likely trying to write the best paper without giving any hints to as who it might be. The note gave them the option to have their child returned as said by CNN Library,“JonBenét's mother, Patsy, says she found a ransom note demanding $118,000 for JonBenét's return,” ("JonBenet Ramsey"). The note had a time on it, the family couldn't call the police, but had to wait for a phone call. The majority think that since they never got a call, the family must have done it, but instead, it could have been the killers focusing on the escape. Hive provides us with key information about the note, “The ransom note warned the couple not to contact the police but to await a phone call between 8 and 10 that morning,” ("JONBENET RAMSEY").
Rigor Mortis had set in showing that JonBenet was killed anywhere between 10pm the night before and 5am the day that she was found. When she was first found she had duct tape covering her mouth, a garrote around her neck, and it appeared that she had been hit in the head with a hard object. Not only had she been tied up, but it also appeared that she had been sexually assaulted. There was DNA evidence taken from her underwear and examined; it did not match with any of the suspects. In an article called The Death of JonBenet: A Case That’s Captivated The Country For 20 Years by Jean Casarez, she says the autopsy revealed that, “JonBenet's cause of death was suffocation in conjunction with forcible trauma to her skull,” (CNN).
There is a ton of speculation of what happened the night of Jonbenet's murder. The murder was never solved, and it will probably remain that way. On that dreadful night (December 25, 1996), Patsy and John came home from a Christmas party and found Jonbenet asleep. They took her
For example, they found cut up pineapples with Burke's fingerprints on it. On the autopsy performed on JonBenet, it showed that she has previously eaten pineapples before the time of her death. Burke, JonBenet's brother, claims he never even came near pineapple. Another piece of evidence that was found was blood on JonBenet's underwear. A DNA sample of the blood was extracted and tested.
In Jonbenét Ramsey’s autopsy, in the digestive tract, were small increments of pineapple. Jonbenét may have taken a piece of pineapple using her hands, causing Burke to release all of his anger. Burke, in an uncontrollable rage, would strike Jonbenét Ramsey in the head with the flashlight in the kitchen. With all of this evidence point to Burke Ramsey as the murderer, there is a shunned theory that an outsider infiltrated the Ramsey household and killed Jonbenét
JonBenet Ramsey December 26th, 1996 in Boulder Colorado six years old beauty queen, JonBenet was murdered in her own home. The Ramsey family had went out for dinner at a friends house the night of Christmas. Once they arrived home, JonBenet was sent straight to bed. That was the last time Patsy and Jhon saw her alive. The next morning Patsy found a ransom note.
She had abrasions on her neck that matched a stun gun the police found. John Ramsey, a very rich man, may have bought the stun gun and used it on JonBenet in order to get her to the basement without any resistance or noise. John could have killed his daughter in many different ways on the night of December 26. Even with a sufficient amount of misleading red herrings, one could speculate the truth through the emotional and social side of the Ramsey’s
Detectives found DNA in her underwear that she was wearing that night. She had a cracked skull when she was found dead. The weapon that was used to kill Jon Benet was a flashlight because it matches perfect to her wonf on her skull. The time Jon Benet was killed was at early in the morning.
JonBenet Ramsey who was a young loving beauty queen of Colorado, who’s live was taken way too early. JonBenet was murdered in her home in Boulder Colorado on December 26, 1996 at the age of six. After completing my research, I was able to make a prediction of who I believed murdered the incent child, and it did not take much research to see the mistakes made by the Boulder Police Department. The Boulder Police Department made numerous mistakes in the JonBenet Ramsey case.
On December 26th, 1996, in Boulder County, Colorado, JonBenet Ramsey, age 6, was reported missing by her mother, Patsy Ramsey, at 5:52 AM. Patsy said that she found a ransom note and her daughter, JonBenet, was not in her bed. Police arrived at the crime scene at 6:10 AM. By the time they came the Ramseys already had friends and family cleaning their home. This may have been an attempt to comfort the family, but detectives say it could be why this case remains unsolved.
Detective Linda Arndt told fleet White and JonBenet’s father, John Ramsey, to search around to see if anything was out of line. The two men searched around the house until they reached the wine cellar in the basement. In there, they discovered JonBenet’s body. With a fractured skull and a bruised neck from stranglement, JonBenet was pronounced dead.
He also felt the need to build a monument, a shrine, to remember this little girl. The night JonBenét died, Michael Vail, a high school friend of Oliva, received a call from him. During the call Oliva told Vail he hurt a little girl in Boulder. Records show no other girl was hurt that night in the area. Gary Oliva did not match the DNA on the scene.
The girls body however was found in the basement later that afternoon. JonBenet’s skull had been fractured, she had been sexually assaulted, she was strangled with a garrote made from one of patsy’s paintbrushes. The police suspected that the ransom note had been written by Patsy and the ransom note and the appearance of the child’s body had been staged by her parents in order to cover up the crime. Apparently JonBenet's official cause of death was asphyxia a by strangulation. Her death was classified as
JonBenet had suffered a skull fracture, had been sexually molested, and strangled with some type of cord that was made from the mother’s paintbrushes. Once her body was found in the basement, her father compromised the crime scene by lifting her body and carrying it
When John Ramsey and his neighbor Fleet White went around the area to see if JonBenet was hiding somewhere, the first place John went was straight to the basement. Which just so happened to be where JonBenet’s body was found, so that right there raised a huge red flag. The reason for that was because by the time Mr. Ramsey had gone downstairs to the basement, it had been a few hours from when everything had started and mysteriously he knew exactly where she would be in the basement? The biggest part of it all was after Mr. Ramsey had found JonBenet, instead of calling for the detectives who were all over his home; he immediately picked JonBenet off the ground and took the duct tape off her mouth. After John Ramsey touched JonBenet, that entire murder scene was now tampered with which makes anything that was found inaccurate seeing how there is now other fingerprints on the body.
