Killer Conversations: JonBenét Ramsey’s ‘accidental’ death      Mollie Chambers, Columnist Feb 12, 2020 Updated 11 hrs ago




From a seemingly staged crime scene to a three-page ransom note, JonBenét Ramsey’s murder case is truly puzzling. There are so many holes within this case it’s not hard to formulate my own theory behind her death.

On Dec. 26, 1996, Patsy Ramsey called the Boulder County Police Department to report that her six-year-old daughter JonBenét Ramsey had been kidnapped. Upon the police’s arrival, it was discovered that JonBenét Ramsey was not kidnapped — she was murdered.

This discovery lead investigators to search for a murderer who would never be found. However, I believe JonBenét’s killers were the ones who were supposed to love and protect her, her family.

While I do not believe the murder was premeditated, I do believe that her family intentionally covered up JonBenét’s accidental death. I suspect that Burke Ramsey, JonBenét’s brother, accidently killed his sister. Then after finding out, I believe Patsy and John Ramsey covered up the murder in order to protect their son.

After reflecting on the facts of this case, I have outlined how I believe Patsy, John and Burke Ramsey all contributed to JonBenét’s tragic death.

1. Patsy Ramsey: The Ransom Note

On the morning of Dec. 26, Patsy claimed to have found a ransom note on the staircase. When investigators looked over the contents of the ransom note they, just like me, were shocked.

Not only was the ransom note three pages long, but it was later uncovered that the pen and paper used to write said note came from inside the house. Although I am no killer, I do have enough sense not to write the ransom note in the same house as the girl I am kidnapping, much less one that drags on for three pages.

When it comes to the actual contents of the note, most of it was either meaningless or extremely repetitive. The note was addressed to John Ramsey and requested $118,000 in exchange for his daughter. This seems odd to me seeing as though the Ramseys were known to be extremely wealthy. Why not ask for more?

Consequently, $118,000 was the exact amount of money John received that year as a Christmas bonus. This means that whoever wrote this note had a close relationship with the family.

Another noteworthy fact about JonBenét’s ransom note was the handwriting. When analyzed by a handwriting specialist it was found that the handwriting used for the note was eerily similar to that of Patsy Ramsey.

With these facts considered, I believe that Patsy Ramsey played her part in covering up her daughter’s murder by writing the ransom note that directed the blame away from her son.
