Reading the entire transcript of the Atlanta interview where the Ramseys faced 7 from Boulder, you can see where Lin Wood repeatedly called out the 7 for making comments about evidence and then being unable to show they were telling the truth. Later we knew from Haney himself that he had lied to Patsy about there being positive evidence - fibers evidence as I recall - pointing to John as the killer. A perfectly legal means to push buttons in an interrogation, but not to be confused with facts and evidence. There is a difference between high-tech being really cool and the brand Hi-Tec. With the grand jury testimony still under wraps, we don't know what Fleet and his son or Burke said about that footwear. The mold was pretty thick and I am surprised at how few prints are there. There were none from LHP and her group getting out the Christmas trees. I believe the prints were fresh - and so did the police or they would not have taken McElroy's boots for comparison.

Please show where Fleet White is quoted saying BUrke owned the Hi-Tec brand boot.

http://www.jameson245.com/911_page.htm OLD page on the 911 tape with comments fro CBS producer,

@Christina - thanks for the tip. Foster was a renowned LINGUISTICS expert which is nothing like a handwriting expert. So when his linguistics attribution fell apart his attempt to nail her based on an opinion on her handwriting was just ridiculous. I think my page on him is pretty easy to follow and actually quite amusing. He contributed more than he could imagine to that page.

Expert Mike Dobersen said he would swear to a medical certainty the marks were made by a stungun. They were electrical burns, not jabs or scratches or anything that could have been caused by a bit of toy railroad track. Someone must have bought the tape close to the time of the murder since it was manufactured in NC just weeks before. Point is the police could never link any Ramsey to the purchase and they tried their best. Burke owned some high tech boots, not the brand Hi-Tec. Again, police tried to prove otherwise but failed so they are still speaking to tipsters about boots, still willing to look at the boots of possible suspects. I honestly don't know WHEN the killer left the note on the stairs. Neither dows anyone else - - - only the killer knows when - or why. The stairs were tight, not noisey at all. I know because I used them. Why leave a note at all? Because he was being a smart-ss? Seriously, leaving a body and a note makes it clear this was not a kidnapping OR a staged kidnapping but a crime where someone didn't really follow a perfect plan but was acting ut a few fantasies at once.

The note - - I can't think of a single house that doesn't have some kind of paper and pen in it - - but I don't think the crime was ever a kidnapping and the note was an after thought. Actually, it was more of a distraction taken on while the killer waited for HOURS for the family to get home, go to bed, go to sleep. He had to be still and quiet so... why not indulge in a bit of a different fantasy and write the note? he had the time - - and I think leaving his own handwriting - 3 pages worth, shows he was not worried about anyone recognizing it. To me, it makes a lot less sense for a family member to write a note like that to leave with the body. We may not have known a lot about DNA evidence in 1996 but we ALL knew about handwriting comparisons. And the words in the note - - not using JonBenét's name, asking for a mere $118,000 when everyone knew the family was rich. A cool million would make more sense. But why leave ANY note? with a body?

No, there is no evidence linking the Ramseys to a stun gun but if you read this transcript you will see the expert will testify there was one used. http://www.jameson245.com/doc2usa.htm The cord and tape found on the body matched nothing in the house and the police, try as they might, could not link either item to the family. There was a Hi-Tec bootprint found near the body. Still unsourced. No one in the family owned that brand and the proof it is important to the case is how the police went all over trying to prove the boots were bought by the Ramseys - - and they took in a couple pairs from reasonable suspects, two I can name are McElroy and Helgoth. If the boots belonged to a cop or the family, they would not be looking for them. I will answer your long email in parts. more to come.

To Christina: His name is Donald and I am sorry you don't care to read the page. The truth is there. To make my response here short and not take up too much of your time, Donald Foster admitted he was wrong about the Shakespeare he incorrectly attributed to Shakespeare. But he was OK with that. To quote him, "No one who cannot rejoice in the discovery of his own mistakes deserves to be called a scholar." In Ramsey he was totally discredited. He won't talk about it but it was made clear in both Steve Thomas' book and in the depositions given in the Wolf lawsuit. But feel free to ignore all that and hold whatever position you choose. I won't do more to change your mind.

Yes, he can be. The lawsuit has been filed and they are asking for $750 MILLION dollars for Burke. I expect the whole thing will be settled before it gets too far - and Attorney Lin Wood gets a percentage and likes to win big so any settlement will be sizable. But if that doesn't happen, YES, everyone connected to the show will be deposed - - and that includes Burke and John. If you look for it, the entire lawsuit is available online - - it goes into details about what CBS knew before they did the show. Most of the money sought is punative, I believe, because they knew they were not presenting the truth. I don't know why Lifetime is not being sued as well - - they were almost as bad. Especially with the faked crime scene photos. The real ones show a dry bed - Lifetime showed a bed that was urine crusted like it had been wet every night for a month and never changed. Including a disclaimer as an entertainment program really doesn't excuse that kind of misbehavior.

When DA Alex Hunter first called Lou Smit in for an interview - - Lou had a stellar reputation as one of the best investigators in the country - - the first thing Lou told him was that the note was written before the murder. Lou said even the most cold blooded killer would not have been able to sit down after all that had happened in the course of the murder and written that rather calm and thoughtful note. I mean, it was three pages - it had references to movies, possible old documents related to old true crimes like the Leopold and Loeb confessions (which few people have read). My theory is that the killer entered the house while the family was out for dinner at their friends' - Fleet and Priscilla White. I think he played what has been described before as "creepy crawley" in the house while it was still light outside. During that time he may well have come across John's desk with his pay stubs - and every stub listed his January 1996 bonus for 1995 - - just a bit over $118,000. I imagine the killer didn't have that kind of money and to think someone got it as a BONUS - - that must have smarted. I think the intruder carried in a "rape kit" fully expecting to do all he wanted in the house - - if he thought he was really kidnapping, he didn't need all that. She was 45 pounds - - the stun gun alone and his hands could get her to his car, if he had one. But he didn't carry in a note because - - this was never a kidnapping for such a silly amount of money. The Ramseys had millions and everyone knew it. So as it got dark he turned off the light in the sun room (reported by neighbor, that light was always on 24/7, every night - - but that night it was off. Probably so neighbors wouldn't be able to look in as easily. I think he realized he had a long time to wait for the family to get home, settle in, go to bed, fall asleep - - and he decided to play a bit of a fantasy game with the note. Writing it simply because he had time to kill and had to stay in one place. Finding the pad and pen was easy - - each an arm's length from the wall phone in the kitchen. So he wrote the note - - I don't know where he was when he did that or why he returned the pad and pen. Maybe that's something in his personality, everything in it's place? Only he can tell us that. thoughts?

Clearly I am not dead, the email still works, same as I have had for over 20 years. That writer didn't ever learn how to research a subject. As for me discrediting the expert (Vassar professor Donald Foster) having no expertise or evidence to counter his findings - - judge that for yourself after eading the page I have dedicated to him. You can find it at www.jameson245.com/foster_page.htm Clearly 48 Hours, the producers and legal team, felt I had what it took, and so did DA Alex Hunter because - as described in Steve Thomas' book - - once I stepped up and exposed him he was no longer the "key witness going into the Grand Jury" but .... just NOT!

Later she helped not solve the sexual assault of a teenager that took place just a few miles away. The intruder had entered that house while the mother and daughter were out. They got home and turned on the security alarm system so we know he didn't come in after. The mother and girl watched TV and went to bed - - then the intruder went to the girl's room and sexually assaulted her. The mother herd something nd interrupted. The intruder fled, jumping out a window. I have read reports by the father and he was furious at how little was done to solve that crime. They did not check the yard, they did not do the proper canvas of the neighborhood. They did not return calls. And guess who was in charge of that case? Linda Arndt! She didn't return the family's calls for weeks and when she did she kind of said OOPS, sorry, I was busy painting my house. Any wonder cases don't get solved in Boulder?

This show is an ENTERTAINMENT program and was edited to be just that. I think Phil and his producers and editors should be ashamed of themselves, cutting and pasting things to make the show more "entertaining" for higher ratings. They should have told the story of what happened, asked Burke the questions more Ramsey-educated people would have asked. Not left those subjects or dropped the answers because there wasn't any "wow" factor in what he said. I want to address the "feces" issue. Kolar put that chit in his book and that is the basis for the CBS show - - and THAT is the subject of a huge lawsuit (which I bet will be settled out of court - a shame.) But if you go back to the search warrants and returns, the depositions and interviews with all KINDS of witnesses... there was an unflushed toilet in the basement of the Ramsey house and it would seem there was some feces there. And the only other mention of feces is - - there was a pair of panties in JOnBenet's bathroom that had some "skid marks" (my quote) on them. Those panties were found still inside the play pants she had taken off to get ready for the Christmas dinner at the Whites'. My guess is that she was pretty proud of herself when she got dressed for that party and opened the new package of panties and could tell for herself which panties were the right ones, said WEDNESDAY on the waistband. But that isn't the point. The point I want to make is that there was no feces found on the walls or on candy or - - - just not there. I asked about feces on the wall and no one was too sure, no great memories of that. Certainly no memories of telling the housekeeper to clean it. But let me suggest that a child with a real mess may get some on their fingers/hand - and that may end up being carried to the toilet roll, the holder or the wall very close to it. I know I have had to clean such messes before (foster to dozens of kids, parent to three). Not anything I considered a problem or indication of psychiatric issues. Chit happens.

I know Lou went to see Patsy shortly before Patsy died. I do NOT believe Linda Arndt did. Supposedly there was a phone call the year before but I don't know if that is true or not.

This show really deserves a lawsuit. They showed so much that was WRONG. For starters the image of the bed - they had it encrusted with urine like no one had changed a bedwetter's bed for a month. In fact, JonBenet did not wet her bed every night. In positions we hear it wasn't very often. And here is a photo of her bed as it WAS found. DRY!
