Jonbenet Ramsey Case Study

JonBenet Ramsey a 6-year old pageant queen. Daughter of John Bennett, a wealthey business man, and her mother, Patricia Ramsey, a socialite. JonBenet, youngest of the Ramsey family, was horrendously murdered between the nights of December 25, 1996 to December 26, 1996. A ransom note was left on the stairs of their Colorado home. Patsy woke up and went down stairs to make coffee but instead found the ransom not on the staircase. Immediately after reading it Patricia Ramsey called the police reporting JonBenet as missing.

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 am tomorrow to instruct each other very much they decided to cover up the whole crime. And that’s when our second suspect comes in.you on delivery.” Something very interesting about this part of the note is that $118,000.00 was a number that was very close to a bonus that John Benet Ramsey had received. Only a family member,like Patsy, would know that. So this points to a chance that the ransom note could have been a Hoax. Many people believe that Patsy accidentally killed JonBenet.
