Books for Breakfast

   Okay I have officially finished the JonBenet Ramsey book, and I personally think that Pasty, the mother, did it and John, the father, helped to cover it up. A lot of the evidence leads back to her. The writing of the ransom note, the fiber on the black tape, the fingerprints on the bowl of pineapple and the fact that she was wearing the same thing from the night before, giving the impression that she never went to sleep. And for a former beauty queen herself I don't see her wearing the same thing two days in a row. I think that she did it because she was jealous of her daughter. The reason I think that the father helped to cover it up was because, after the police got there to address the kidnapping, he was unaccounted for, for an hour. During that time he went looking through out the house and ended up in the basement and found the body. Before he left he was freaking out like any normal person would do when their child is missing, when he returned from the basement he was very quiet and didn't say or show any emotion. Seeing that he was having some issues with what was going on the officer on the scene told him and a friend to go check the house over and see if anything was missing or out of place. He went directly to the basement and into the small room that would have been hard for anyone to find unless you knew it was there and "found" the body of six year old JonBenet. He carried it upstairs and laid her on the floor. From there is where the case starts to get botched. Almost everyone in the house touched the body so any clues to who had done it was tampered with. Soon after more officers got there the Ramsey's left. From the beginning the case was screwed over. There was no official statements given by the Ramsey's and their lawyers were not cooperating the police. The author of the book was a detective on the case, and to hear him say it he knew the case was in trouble as soon as he got placed on the case. I like the way he went through everything. The book made me mad though because of all the high ranking police officials were not doing their jobs, they didn't take anything into serious consideration. The handwriting analysis was just fluffed off and never look at again even though it was pin pointed back to Patsy Ramsey. Towards the end of the book you read that the case was never going to see the inside of a court room, it was not going to be heard in front of a grand jury, because they didn't have the evidence. The author knows that this was wrong and felt that they were not going to find justice for the six year old JonBenet and he knew this would be his last case. He would put down his badge and never pick it up again. In the end the case of JonBenet wouldn't make it to trial and no one would know what
happened to the six year old beauty queen who had her life ahead of her.
