well, it was a theory yesterday. now apparently debunked.
That is not a really good analysis of the note.
Just as an example, I seem to recall the multiple "she dies" was used in the movie "The Way of the Gun". The movie came out after the murder but I would say it was used then because it is common movie tough guy language since talkies.
The person who wrote the note knowing Jon was already dead does not point the finger at any individual other then the murderer who is persons unknown.
As far as the "and hence" statements made by Patsy Ramsey after the note appeared, see the "she dies" comment. People do that all the time, even screen writers.
Much of the criticism of them was that they raised their daughter in a very creepy way, sexualizing her and objectifying her at a very young age.
Those criticisms still stand.
Clearly any innuendo beyond that, and into the sphere of them being involved in the murder of their child, was way out of line.
Easy. Check stub or entry in his checkbook, sitting around the house.
I recall that handwriting experts said they could not rule her out, but that's different then saying she wrote it.
Regarding the ransom note, it is plain that the writer is modern and has gone through some 3rd level education. They also seem to follow leftist politics with a word like faction and the notion of a group like the SLA. They plainly know some details about the Ramsey family. They are also somewhat pedantic e.g. 'etc.,' - a period and a comma used. Also they seem a little undereducated at times e.g. 'out smart' being two words.
This is from a swift read tonight.
I noted a resemblance between Karr and Lee Harvey Oswald. Perhaps it was the similarity in being carted round by the police in public. He also sounded rather camp.
Thank you, I personally had the opinion Patsy Ramsey did not write the ransom note. I have seen one signature of John Karr from a civil court document....my opinion is inconclusive. If anyone on this forum has a sample of John Mark Karr from the same time period, scan and send it over>
