Answer 1

If you don't realize the case is still open, you're no good as a detective. The DA went to great lengths to make abundantly clear that the case is still open.

Who the parents did or didn't screw is irrelevant.

Whether the parents were madly in love with (a) themselves or (b) each other or (c) others not party to their marriage -- or some combination thereof -- is irrelevant to the case.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Remember California v Westerfield? The vanDams name and reputation was dragged through the mud because they were swingers -- but in the end, it was a person never having been invited into their home, and never having been part of their sexual escapades, that broke into their home and kidnapped and murdered their daughter.

The vanDams had taken unusually great precautions to secure their house against intrusion, but Westerfield was an engineer and was able to defeat their security measures. He didn't even leave trace evidence of his presence in their house -- no hair, no fingerprints, etc. -- but Danielle left evidence of herself in his RV, and even though it could have been explained away, the jury returned the correct verdict.

After the trial, we learned he'd tried to make a deal for his life in exchange for telling the location of her body -- and the DA was about to bite, but 2 hours before the papers were to be signed, her body was found. The jury recommended, and the judge imposed, the dp.

Westerfield was an ordinary professional guy, having no previous criminal record and apparently having no unusual or aberrant sexual desires. RE motive: it is possible he targeted the girl to get revenge for her mother's having rejected him.

It is also possible he broke into the house intending to rape the mother and was discovered by Danielle -- who he then kidnapped in order to prevent discovery of his B&E, and that somewhere along the way, he decided it would be more exciting to rape the girl than her mother.

So, he went from what could have been a very embarassing situation that might not even have resulted in arrest (getting caught by the vanDams before he had done anything beyond the B&E) -- to a capital felony (kidnapping) in a few seconds.

After that, what were his options? Return the kid, and she's gonna rat him out: even if he threatens her, it's just a matter of time before the interrogators wear her down. And since she's just 8 years old, and since the kidnapping happened after he B&E, he's already looking at either LWOP or a needle.

To him, that means he's got to get rid of the kid: the penalty can't be any worse, and there's a chance he can do it in a way that conceals his involvement in the crime. So, after he kidnaps her, she's a dead girl walking.

That leaves rape, which (in this scenario) he'd already intended to do to her mom. Again, whether he was attracted to her or to her mom or to neither of them is irrelevant: rape is not a crime that arises from sexual interest; rape is a crime of violence.

When discovered, Danielle's body had been partly consumed by scavengers, so there was no way to prove that she had been raped; however, the DA was able to argue that forensic evidence supported his theory that (a) she had been sexually assaulted, and (b) that such sexual contact was not predicated on her lawful consent.

------------------------------------------------------------------

I know that it is popular to believe a person's life is ruined whenever he or she is raped -- but, having been raped by 2 men when I was about 8yo, I am certain that is a lie perpetuated by people that are bloodthirsty and irrational and who have no interest in real justice but instead merely want to participate in ritual revenge.

Therefore, rape of minors by adults will continue to be a capital crime -- and children will die because of it. But society doesn't care, as long as it can use that as an excuse to put other people to death.

Get over it: you're not interested in finding JonBenet's killer. All you want is for someone to justify your correlation of sex and violence, because salacious and defamatory trivia titillates you when it's liked in your mind to violence against children and defenseless women.

Answer 2

The case is not closed. Some of the evidence points to a family member and some of the evidence points to an intruder. Until they find the owner of that blood droplet in JonBenet's underwear, they don't stand a chance of getting a conviction. Once they match the droplet, they will do what they can to place the owner in Boulder at the time of the crime. Even so, they still may not get a conviction. Unless there is a confession, family members or others will not be convicted of the crime because there is too much reasonable doubt. Unfortunately, life is not fair.

Answer 3

The case is not closed because there is no statute on murder cases. But they need to just realize they happened to get a HIGH PROFILE case which they can not hold anyone accountable for.......the people involved won't quit until either everyone involved id dead or they happen to have another case more recent dropped in their hands that is high profile.........they are waisting tax payers money by continuing this!!!!!! There are actual kids that have recently gone missing or been murdered who they can save if they lay off of the 10 year old case!!!

Answer 4

Inetresting, but the case isnt closed, its cold.

What about that colorado College Professor that keeps fingering people as the killer, he has pointed the finger at two people and both came back negative as a DNA match. Has anyone checked him out?

but in all honesty i think Patsy was having an affair, collected some DNA (if you know what I mean), then planted it on her daughter after beating her to death. I think she was a jealous wench.

Answer 5

The case isn't closed, but since you are a detective, why don't you go and solve the case; don't you think this avenue has been traveled?

Answer 6

How can you say this case is closed? There was an arrest of a suspect who was cleared and released, how does that close the case.

Answer 7

Sexual habits are always a topic. In one case in CA a threesome gave the killer access to the house.

Answer 8

WOW! A REVELATION!

You ought to get on the horn right now and call Boulder police and let them know your big plan! You could be on FoxNews or CNN or MSNBC talking about your theory to OReilly!

Answer 9

first of all the case isn't closed and secondly I IMAGINE THAT YES--LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THINGS LIKE THAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this happened ten years ago and things such as affairs have for sure been asked about. and why do you feel so confident to say sure he did?? you state "question those people I bet they get an answer?" they have moron!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 10

I wasn't aware either parent was playing away from home.
