Jonbenet Ramsey Case

DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL  NOR DID I WORK ON THIS CASE. I AM NOT CLAIMING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING TO BE TRUE. THIS POST DISCUSSES MURDER. IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED BY THE TALK OF DEATH OR CONSPIRACIES PLEASE CLOSE THIS BLOG.


So today i decided to talk about something kind of different. I am not going to talk about conspiracies today, more so an unsolved mystery. So lets just hop right in.

Jonbenet was a 6 year old girl found dead in her family home in Boulder, Colorado on December 26, 1996. If you are anything like me this mystery will leave you completely annoyed and just asking WHY. I want to go over as much of the evidence and other things as i can. So be prepared for a lengthy post today.

So it should be noted that the Ramsey family was a family of four. Jonbenet, her mother Patsy, her father John bennet, and her brother burke.

Patsy called Boulder police on the morning of December 26th, She sounded distressed and very upset. She told Boulder police that her daughter had been kidnapped and that there was only a ransom note left.

According to the testimony of Patsy Ramsey, she discovered her daughter was missing after finding on the kitchen staircase a two-and-a-half-page ransom letter demanding $118,000 for her safe return (the exact value of her husbands bonus that year).

There were several spelling mistakes in the ransom note, as well as direct movie quotes from ransom letters in those movies. It should be noted that the ransom note was written with a note pad and pen from the Ramsey home. Which means the "kidnappers" would have had to have written the note while in their home. 

The Boulder police did check the handwriting to see if Patsy or John Bennet had written the note. They ruled out that John could not have been the author of this note. But they could not prove, nor not prove that Patsy did or did not. 

The only people known to be in the house the night of JonBenet's death were JonBenet, Burke, Patsy and John .Despite specific instructions in the ransom note that police and friends should not be contacted, Patsy called the police at 5:52 a.m. Patsy also called family and friends and many of them rushed over. (i think thats pretty strange in its own)

When police arrived there was no sign of a break in to the home. It is said that many of the family memebers and friends of the family started cleaning the house, and destroyed possible evidence. 

So the next thing that happened was a HUGE mistake for the police. One of the officers that arrived at the home, Detective Linda Arndt, literally asked John and one of their friends to search the house, since they lived in such a big one! WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT????? Anyway. When they went to search the house, thats when they discovered Jonbenet's body. Duct tape covered her mouth, nylon cord was found around her wrists and neck, and her torso was covered by a white blanket. John immediately picked the body up and took it upstairs. Which disturbed and potentially contaminated evidence for the forensics team.

John, Patsy, and Burke Ramsey provided handwriting, blood, and hair samples to the police.

Jonbenet's cause of death was ultimately strangulation. 

There are a few theories on what really happened. Some are ridiculous and some could make sense. There is a lot more evidence and other things have a look at this video to see/hear more, and feel free to research it yourself. 

As always leave me comments with any requests and let me know how you feel about this mystery, what do you think happened?
