Why would an intruder that was planning to kidnap someone wait until they got into the home to write the ransom letter with materials they found in the house?

If anyone can give a logical answer to that I will maaaybe start to believe the family wasn’t involved

And how did they have time to write the ransom novella but not time to take her/her body from the house. Just nope on the intruder theory

IMO, the note was written by one of the Ramseys (probably Patsy) with the intention of having the police think that one of John’s coworkers killed her. John also started suggesting that it could have been a former employee at the very beginning of the investigation

That’s not an explanation. Explain why someone would break into a house, look for writing materials, start writing a long-winded ransom note that obviously had thought put into it, discard that, and write another long-winded ransom note.

That isn’t “stupid criminal” behavior, it is simply illogical.

Boil down the basic motive. If a pedophile is lying in wait for a family to return home in order to sexually abuse, kill and hide the body of a child, what purpose would the ransom note serve?

If it was sexually motivated, the ransom doesn’t make sense. If it was financially motivated, leaving the body behind and writing a ransom note on scene doesn’t make sense.

The only thing that makes sense is that the ransom note was subterfuge. And the only people with reason to create subterfuge are the family. Any explanation beyond that requires too much mental gymnastics.

As an aside, I do appreciate your Bob Dylan-inspired user name.

my own position is similar to

Why assume logical behaviour? Someone could be mentally disturbed and guided by vouces etc. Maybe it made sense to them.

Criminals do all kinds of stupid shit that can't be explained after the fact. That's not a new idea at all.

can you think of reasons this would not be true, or are there crimes that seem illogical but happened anyway?

maybe the ransom note was written to troll the Ramsey's, or it was a joke, or he was inspired by a movie Dirty Harry Scorpio. Maybe he was high on drugs or heard voices in his head. Maybe he wanted his ransom note to be famous. Theodore Kacynski killed a lot of people solely to get his Unabomber manifesto published, similar to the Zodiac Killer, who killed to get his ciphers published.

RDI can't think of a reason for a handwritten message at a crime scene so therefore no intruder. RDI are a lynch mob.
