After looking over all of the evidence in the JonBenet Ramsey murder case it is clear to me that the Ramsey family murdered JonBenet. I think that Burke, her older brother, did the actually killing, but his mother in father aided in the coverup of the crime. This was the only theory that could make sense to me when considering all the suspects, especially John and Patsy Ramsey. It was obvious to me that they were involved but the only way that things truly added up were if Burke did the actual killing. First of all, it is easy to see a motive with Burke. At the time of his sister’s death he was a couple of weeks away from his birthday. Burke was quiet and his sister JonBenet was outgoing. She seemed to have it all including the attention of her parents, especially her mother. During the holidays especially and because it was getting close to his birthday Burke was probably especially envious of his sister. She was gorgeous at age six and participated in beauty pageants and everyone seemed to love her. Burke was cast aside when she was born and he probably had been emotionally damaged ever since then. He probably didn’t intend to kill JonBenet but out of great anger and jealousy it happened. My theory is that at around 10 p.m. on Christmas night JonBenet and Burke were playing together. For whatever reason they started to argue as all siblings do. Then things got out of hand and in a quick fit of rage Burke killed JonBenet. He hit her in the back of the head with a flashlight and then wrapped the cord around her neck, strangling her. His mother and father rushed in and realized what had happened. This family was very social and cared a lot about the image. They could not have people know that their son had murdered their daughter and then possibly lose their son too. This would be far too much pain for them to manage. This is when they made the decision to cover for him. They sent Burke to bed making sure he would go along with their story and he agreed. Then Patsy wrote a ransom note and while John moved JonBenet’s body to the basement where she would not be noticed right away. He then tied her up to make it look like she was being restrained. They probably were originally going to move the body out of the house and ditch it somewhere b... ... middle of paper ... ...sn’t reliable, especially since the Ramseys chose him. When Burke returned to school he returned with guards. They watched him at all times. The reason for this is so that Burke did not leak any information. Because of his young age it was easy for him to say something accidentally and the Ramseys knew this. They seemed to have thought of everything. Also, when Burke was interviewed about his sister he said he was moving on with his life less than a month after the incident had taken place. I could probably go on and on forever looking for minute details that point fingers at no one else but the Ramseys. Of course, I’m not going to do that because I don’t really want to be forever. Basically the point is that it is extremely clear who committed this crime and how the events unfolded. The only reason why there was never a trail was due to the fact that the Ramseys knew people on the inside in every position which was beneficial to them. The Boulder district attorney especially, as well as many other investigators and participants in the investigation are very corrupt people who covered for the Ramseys and this sickens me.
