Good piece by Bob on the
Ramsey murder.
Sorry, but he is wrong on this one. Fact time.
1. The DNA evidence came early, not late. They (Boulder PD) knew they were exempt from the crime within weeks, but pushed anyway because Boulder is run by liberals that wanted to trash some rich white folks.
2. Lou Smit the expert investigator came to an easy conclusion. You can watch replays on A&E Bio shows and other things. The crime scene photos (not just the body) are rather obvious. There was a suitcase next to the window where the predator came into the house. The suitcase had fibers from her clothes in it. He shoved her into the suitcase to try and take her out. The injuries were before she was dead, and not a "staging". This is not a debatable point. The blow to the head with the baseball bat that the Ramsey's do not own was the lethal blow. Ah hell, here is a summary, Copy and paste is easier than typing.
•Three suspicious events point to an intruder: unknown vehicles parked outside the Ramseys' home near the time of the crime; JonBenet's comment to people that she was going to get a "special visit from Santa," even though Patsy never heard JonBenet say anything about a visit from Santa.
•Police statements about there being no footprints in the snow were misleading as there was no snow around most of the perimeter of the house.
•The open basement window, movement of the window well grate and the presence of leaves and debris in the basement below the open window and a number of other clues point to the window being the entry point for the intruder.
•Pieces of debris from the window well were found in the wine cellar where JonBenet's body was discovered.
•The suitcase below the open window, which was moved there by someone other than the Ramseys, appeared to be the way an intruder boosted himself up to the open window to exit the house.
•Many hairs and fibers connected to the crime do not belong to the Ramseys or any other family member.
•Marks on JonBenet's body are consistent with the use of a stun gun which would have kept her quiet while she was removed from her bedroom.
•Fresh unidentified footprints which were visible in the mold on the wine cellar floor did not belong to any family member.
•Tests showed that a scream reported by a neighbor could have come from the basement without the Ramseys hearing it.
•The expertly constructed garrote used on JonBenet indicates an experienced sexual sadist.
•JonBenet's vicious injuries occurred before her death and were not part of some post-mortem staging.
•Unknown male DNA was found under JonBenet's fingernails and other unknown DNA was found on her body and her panties.
•The ransom note was almost certainly written before JonBenet died by a brutal, calm and deliberate person.
The evidence showing an intruder was overwhelming. As was the meaningless strawmen put forth by 9News in Denver, as well as the other networks. Claims about they are telling lies and contradicting statements were in fact lies themselves, that even if so don't point to them. It is an attempt to discredit a witness who says "we didn't do it" rather than just prove they did or didn't. Because the crime scene points away from the Ramseys and at a sexual intruder. Smit believed the perp was likely already in jail.
As much as I like the show Bob Enyart Live, this is one train they should have gotten off, a long time ago.
Listening to the 911 phone call will show you why the Boulder police tried to not have it public. It destroys their fake image they wanted you to have of the Ramseys.
Here is some more.

Because despite what that bitter piece of trash red77 said, I don't want to see the innocent punished. Arthur Brain is a demon possessed pervert full of hate and vile.
Smit found corroborating evidence that an intruder did break into the basement window.
He said crime scene photographs showed that there were leaves and dust on the outside window ledges of all the other basement windows but not the one where an intruder entered the home.
On the inside of other basement windows were cobwebs, but not the window where the intruder entered.
Boulder police had concluded that the window was too small for a grown man to enter. Smit flashed pictures on his basement wall showing him crawling in through the window and than out again.
Smit investigated the backgrounds of the Ramseys. Even though he already knew a lot about the case that may have been the most publicized murder case in Colorado history, he was determined to look at it from a different vantage point.
He went through the Ramsey house looking at all the family photographs.
The public had a largely negative view of JonBenét’s heavy involvement in beauty pageants at such a young age. The belief was that Patsy was flying her around the country, obsessively forcing JonBenét to live out her dreams and expectations, depriving her of a normal childhood.
More darkly, the implication was that Patsy was so fixated on her daughter that if the girl acted out of line her response would be explosive, violent, Smit said.
But Smit had a different way of looking at that.
As he examined the numerous pictures of a little girl with elaborate dresses, hairdos and makeup, he saw sheer delight. It was the face of a pampered child getting something most little girls could only dream of. The pictures reflected a child who was dressing up like a princess, Smit said. The family was planning on taking JonBenét on a Disney cruise ship vacation on Dec. 29.
So they spent the money to help stage the murder that was commited in a fit of rage over bed wetting? Seriously?
JonBenét Ramsey
It didn’t appear there was any evidence she was forced to do something she didn’t love, he said.
Many of the pictures were of a normal little girl in pony tails, sweaters with a huge grin, at special events at High Peaks Elementary School.
A thorough investigation did not uncover allegations of past abuse. An autopsy determined that there was no evidence of long-term sexual abuse, Smit said.
“There was not one instance of physical or sexual abuse,” he said. “You just don’t turn into something overnight. Usually you have some inkling. John would call his kids when he was on the road. His ex-wife said he was a good father.
Boulder detectives had failed to perform tests that not only could have implicated the Ramseys but also could have cleared them. He said had he investigated the case, he would have taken the Ramseys out of the home and searched it from top to bottom for JonBenét. He would have also immediately taken the clothing the Ramseys were wearing for investigative purposes.
Had they done so John Ramsey would not have picked his daughter up in the basement and gotten blood and particles from the crime scene on him and contaminated the scene. If detectives had searched the house and found JonBonét than such evidence could have been used against him.
But what many investigators don’t mention is that his clothing could have also cleared him and Patsy as well – if no tell-tale evidence was discovered on their clothing, Smit said.
“You only have one shot to do that right,” he said. “The house should have been totally shut. The crime scene was screwed up.”
