the intruder murder of Jessie Blodgett 19 & The Unsolved Murder of JonBenet Ramsey

Mon Feb 11, 2019

yesterday after watching a documentary on The Unsolved Murder of Shelbey Thornburgh 20  the youtube channel True Crime Daily
provided me a link to

Pt. 1: Teen Actress/Musician Found Slain in Bed - Crime Watch Daily with Chris Hansen

Published on Feb 27, 2018
A 19-year-old writes some disturbing observations in her journal just hours before she's found murdered. Who killed actress/musician Jessie Blodgett? Crime Watch Daily's Ana Garcia investigates.

this is Jessie Blodgett 19
Birth 22 Mar 1994
Death 15 Jul 2013 (aged 19)

Jessie Blodgett, 19, was killed July 15,  2013  was a student at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.  



to clarify

i've never heard of this case, this person, this murder until yesterday, but watching it for the first time,

Jessie Blodgett, 19,

was found dead in her own bed,



with ligature marks around her neck



under the bed they found

rope



and tape



under one finger nail they found unknown DNA



 the documentary didn't state whether they found evidence of sexual assault or rape. but semen was not mentioned.

how is this evidence found murder of Jessie Blodgett 19 compare with  The Unsolved Murder of JonBenet Ramsey


now, how would RDI evaluate this evidence? how would you evaluate this evidence using science.

if you were to approach this evidence using science how would you reconstruct the events that led to  murder of Jessie Blodgett 19

if you use RDI denialist tactics what would rdi say about the evidence?

can you prove an intruder brought that ligature? or that the ligature was used in the crime?
how do you know the rope wasn't already there to begin with?

can you prove an intruder brought the tape?
how do you know the tape wasn't already there to begin with?

and since the DNA was unknown and didn't match the family does this prove nothing then?

let's listen to RDI using their methodologies


let's review RDI reasoning,

Websleuths is a leader in true crime information as well as discussion. People come here to get information. It is imperative we deal with the facts. Not fantasy.

All I ask for are facts and a logical connecting of the dots. Logic and facts.

When I get time I will be going through the forum to make sure the JonBenet Ramsey forum is being held up to the high standards just like all our other forums on Websleuths.

The days of allowing anyone to post anything because it's part of their "theory" are gone. Facts and logic. Very simple.

this is her qualifications

Host Tricia Griffith is a veteran radio disc jockey and owner of Websleuths.com and owner of Forums for Justice.org.

in other words she has ZERO qualifications in forensic science. she has no training in forensic fiber, trace evidence, DNA yet she claims

are cotton fibers and 2 beer cans found in the ally a scintilla of evidence of an intruder?

similarly with Delmar England

Letter to Boulder Colorado District Attorney, Mary Keenan

The crime scene consisted of an obviously bogus multi-page "ransom note" utilizing local materials. JonBenet's body was left in the basement of the Ramsey home with crude trappings falling woefully short of presenting a convincing kidnap\murder scene as it was intended to do. Even without pointing out more of a very long list of corroborating facts, the bogus note and inept staging is more than sufficient to isolate the perpetrators to the Ramsey household. Only a few minutes in examining and evaluating the evidence is required to reach this conclusion. It is impossible to reach any other conclusion on the facts. There was and is no evidentiary reason to look anywhere else. The only mystery to be solved was and is which Ramsey did what in relation to JonBenet's death.

Although it is not possible to reach any other conclusion from the evidence, it is possible to ignore the evidence and mentally invent "evidence" to take the place of truth and keep it hidden. Prompted by preconceived notions set in a context of money and political influence in conjunction with investigative cowardice and incompetence, this is precisely what has been going on for over six years.

Handwriting? Patsy has not been ruled out by several examiners. By my own analysis, not of the writing, but of the mind match between the note and Patsy is clear. This is explained in my analysis of the "ransom note." So far, neither you nor anyone else has quoted and challenged it. So, to say the handwriting does not match the Ramseys, thus all Ramseys are excluded as author, is just another arbitrary declaration without substance. Note the exclusion of Ramseys necessarily depends on the intruder idea of no factual substance.

DNA? So, it does not match the family. So what? Who does it match? Unknown? If unknown, how can it be known to connect to the crime and be "evidence?" If the source of this DNA were known, then factually connected to the crime scene, then it is evidence. Absence this, it is just more speculation that caters to intruder mental creation.

Does the DNA have to be connected to the crime? Could it not be from a benign source totally removed from the crime scene? Again, the alleged evidence evidences nothing except itself with no known connection to the crime. No outsider as perpetrator is required to explain the DNA since no connection is known as crime related.

The same is true for boot print, hairs, fibers, etc.. A close look into anyone's house would most likely turn up all sorts of things whose source were unknown whether there is a crime or not. To call something whose source and cause is unknown as evidence is to say it causal related while simultaneously saying cause is unknown, thus relationship unknown; more "negative evidence." If my recollection of high school Latin is correct, this could be called "ignotium per ignotius", the unknown by the more unknown.

This "Ramsey defense" "thinking" is a direct and absurd contradiction that is without limit. With this kind of "investigative latitude", I dare say that one could "prove" anything; or at least, convince the deluded self that he or she has done so. "negative evidence?" Surely, thou jest. I repeat: All known evidence is local.

delmar england wrote:
For every "could be", there is a "could be not", therefore, inconclusive until cause is known. Right? No thing is evidence until evidentiary cause is known. Right? Are we in agreement so far? If not, please point out what you think is my error in thinking, and why you think it is error.

A shoe print is found in the basement whose cause is unknown. It "could be" evidence of an intruder. "Could be not" is forgotten and "evidence" of an intruder is declared to be fact. There is a palm print with cause unknown; a rope with source unknown that "could be" something brought in by an intruder; an unidentified fiber, a baseball bat that "could have" been used by the intruder; a bit of dirt or leaves at a window well which "could have" been disturbed by an intruder. The list goes on and on and on.

This massive "evidence" stated to be more consistent with a theory of intruder than Ramsey guilt is hot air, nothing more than a string of unknowns verbally laced together on "could be", simultaneously divorced from the known, and declared to be much evidence of an intruder. Ridiculous to the max. No wonder no one will step forward and answer questions about alleged evidence of an alleged intruder. Its indefensible.

The beauty of truth is that it is consistent. Every fact is a complement of and blends with every other fact without contradiction. The presence of a contradiction is also the presence of error. Are we in agreement up to this point?

This is an example of NO IDI explanation. Why would an intruder hide her body? Seriously, please answer that for me. Why would an intruder hide her body rather than take her with them and dump her, or leave her where she was? Did an intruder seriously believe she would NEVER EVER be found inside the house?

Serious question: Why would an intruder hide her body in a dark room in a basement?

If he wanted to ensure it was found, why hide it? If he had to bug out, not taking the kidnapped-turned-murdered with him, why did he leave the note?

Delay discovery to what end? If he were bugging out, why would he care when, where, and how she's found?

It makes zero logical sense.

Mama2JML,
Why does an intruder need to bother with a RN at all, all that sitting around authoring a RN, increases the risk of being caught.

No JonBenet in the house tells its own story, when followed up with a ransom phone call, no RN is required.

There is no IDI explanation forthcoming as to why the said intruder did not remove JonBenet from the house, which is just as inconsistent as any staged kidnapping leaving JonBenet in the house!

Intruder plan of action: Enter Ramsey household remove JonBenet, dead or alive, relocate to the boot of awaiting car, then simply drive away. Next day phone ransom demands. Total time to execute less than fifteen minutes!

There is absolutely 0 reason to start to write a draft ransom note and then write the real thing and make it that ridiculously long.

If it was a premeditated kidnapping, ('hid in the house' theory) why the fuck wouldn't you bring a ransome note with you and why the hell would you start to draft one and then write one on paper found in the house.

If it was a burglary turned kidnapping, why would you start to draft a ransom note, and then write the real thing 4 pages long? You would scribble something like "I've taken your daughter, dont contact police, deposit money at this location at this time if you want to see her again." A panicked burglar does not sit and start writing about his 'organisation'.

A lot of people get bogged down in the details of the case, because it is a fascinating one and it is very interesting, but the ransom note is the most ridiculous thing ever and was totally written by one of the family in my opinion. They also completely over thought it - mentioning the fathers business, his bonus, writing 4 pages worth etc.

There's no way the family wasn't involved. As for which one did it, that is what is hard to prove.

docg makes a similar claim

Questions

An intruder intending to express his anger or disdain for the Ramseys would have had no reason to write a meaningless ransom note. A kidnapper would not have left both the note and the body. If the parents were involved in this together, as so many assume, such a note might serve to throw the police off the track, but only if the body were found, days later, in some remote area. Or never found. With the body hidden in the house, where it is sure to be discovered, the note only creates problems for the Ramseys, the only ones who could "logically" have written it. If they were not planning on getting the body out of the house before the police came, then why would they write an obviously phony note?

Also, why was the note hand printed? Why not print it via computer? Or paste words together from newspapers? If the parents, or anyone at all close to the family, wrote it, they would be risking exposure for sure.

Answers

No intruder would have had anything to gain by writing the ransom note. No intruder would have any reason to write it. A kidnapper would have taken the child (or her body) with him. If something had gone wrong with his plan, he would have had no reason to leave a possibly incriminating note. Someone intending to frame John or Patsy would not have written the note in his own hand, as that would be evidence of an intruder. The conclusion is simple: there was no kidnapper. There was no intruder. The note must have been written by someone on the inside -- and it does indeed read like a staged kidnapping attempt.

so how would you summarize RDI reasoning on the evidence found murder of Jessie Blodgett 19

using science how would you evaluate this evidence?


Jessie Blodgett, 19,

was found dead in her own bed,



with ligature marks around her neck



under the bed they found

rope



and tape



under one finger nail they found unknown DNA



well as a forensic scientist like



evaluate this evidence?

well here's a working theory,

an intruder murdered  Jessie Blodgett 19 in her own bed, while her parents were at work.

this intruder brought ligature and tape with him.

he used the ligature to strangle Jessie Blodgett 19  as evidence by these ligature marks



the tape roll he brought with him rolled under the bed.

during the commission of the crime,  Jessie Blodgett 19 made contact with her killer resulting in DNA under her fingernail



the suspect therefore has DNA, and tape and ligature that matches the items found at the crime scene. the suspect is the donor of the unknown DNA.

in the end they found a suspect



his DNA matched the DNA underneath the victim's 1 fingernail.

using the same scientific reasoning what conclusions would you draw in The Unsolved Murder of JonBenet Ramsey

the evidence of an intruder in murder of Jessie Blodgett 19

was

Jessie Blodgett, 19,

was found dead in her own bed,



with ligature marks around her neck



under the bed they found

rope



and tape



under one finger nail they found unknown DNA



is there any scientific forensic evidence in The Unsolved Murder of JonBenet Ramsey that is in any way comparable  to the
scientific forensic evidence the intruder murder of Jessie Blodgett 19

Jessie Blodgett 19  was murdered by an intruder.
that evidence they were able to link to an intruder, her killer.

is the evidence found in Jonbenet similar to, better or comparable to evidence found in  the intruder murder of Jessie Blodgett 19
?

she has banned IDI from talking about the case in her websleuth and forumsforjustice forums and then claims that the remaining RDI haven't provided a scintilla of evidence of an intruder.

again let's review Delmar England's claim

the evidence of an intruder in murder of Jessie Blodgett 19

was

Jessie Blodgett, 19,

was found dead in her own bed,



with ligature marks around her neck



under the bed they found

rope



and tape



under one finger nail they found unknown DNA




how does using a scientific approach to scientific evidence compare with RDI claims, such as delmar england that this is an intruder mental creation and no other possible conclusion ma apply or other such RDI nonense.

RDI = pure ignorance of basic forensics

science is based on observation and here observation includes crimes in which an intruder was known to be the cause.

holdtonyourhat and jameson are right. intruder is the best scientific explanation of the scientific evidence The Unsolved Murder of JonBenet Ramsey

this is a picture of the neck of Jessie Blodgett 19 committed by an intruder



Jonbenet neck



intruders use ligature to strangle victims in their own home as is the case of  Jessie Blodgett 19  and The Unsolved Murder of JonBenet Ramsey
