JonBenet Ramsey: How the Investigation Got Derailed -- and Why It Still Matters

Longish read. Not too triggering. (I don't think)

http://blogs.westword.com/latestword/20 ... _white.php

Also see Jeff's write-up here from 2006.

What would she be? Like 24-25 now?

Here's the thing I think and I don't know. Wouldn't she have been "acclimated" to this abuse and at that age thought it to be normal and couldn't put up a feeble fight and just "accept" it?

I guess the thing that really blows me away is that I was in jail that christmas night (DUI) and the TV in the panopticon of Patrick J Sullivan Jail (gay sex right-wing meth pervert sheriff) was on some news station and I just got to thinking how quickly the news spread. Shit didn't go "viral" back then. Yet news got out quick. It's a somewhat long drive from Denver to Boulder, but in the middle of the night the news stations were on the scene. I remember this only because I was, in jail, waiting to get bailed out and had nothing to do but watch TV in the pod with criminals. Yet thinking back and it is only now dawning on me, that the quickness was insane. Christmas night, no real way to set up the "narrative", yet there is was. Rich motherfuckers lose their beauty pageant kid in some "labyrinthine" basement and it immediately makes the breaking news. Just trying to peice together the timeline of how I remember it -- as far as media coverage.

Anyhow, there you go. Prendergast has been writing in Denver for a long time and this is worth the read.
There is no me. There is no you. There is all. There is no you. There is no me. And that is all. A profound acceptance of an enormous pageantry. A haunting certainty that the unifying principle of this universe is love. -- Propagandhi

Interesting article. Thanks. It has illuminated a couple of details I never really noticed before.

Like a labrithine basement that people could get lost in.

And the MIC connections of the Ramseys.

This is a White family defense piece. They've been working very hard over the years to clear themselves of suspicion, from multiple lawsuits to discussion board infiltration (apparently). I still think Krebs is credible on many counts. She supplied physical evidence (letters, photos) of her connection to White Sr. and reported his and his son's involvement in her family's pedo ring.

Her full interview is posted here:
http://rigorousintuition.ca/board2/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=22855

The major claim with which her testimony has been deemed discredited was that her mother and niece attended the White's Christmas party, but this was never her claim, she passed it on to police making it quite clear this was what her mother had told her during a phone conversation.

The Whites sued Boulder police to gain the records of the Kreb investigation. They also sued media outlets that reported on her claims. I don't know if they have sued Krebs directly. She was not prosecuted for making false statements to police.

Krebs was reported as a missing person in Cal because she had abandoned her car in order to cover her tracks to Boulder, she was in fear for her life after receiving calls from White Sr. about keeping quiet, and her therapist received threats on her answering machine. A lot of the threatening communication she shared with police was in coded language, which is typical in organized abuse groups, but they obviously failed to understand.

What is rarely mentioned however is that she names John Ramsey as one of her abusers, whom she said her family referred to as Uncle Johnny. I do not know the extent to which the police went to confirm whether Ramsey could have been in California during the time period. If anyone has a source on that, it would be very helpful. Why this is not used as the major argument against Kreb's credibility is a bit of a mystery to me at this point.

D: What I would like to tell you is that I am very concerned for my safety and I don't know what I will do if you don't listen to what I am saying. I took great personal risk to myself to do this.

A: Okay.

D: And I hope you understand that. I also want to be very up front with you in that I have reported things to law enforcement several times and had them uh, not believe me about weird wacko things that I have been telling you about um, that would be in San Luis Obispo County and when I was living in Wyoming and um, well actually um when I worked with Inyo County um, there was a lot of things that I told them about pornographic films and torturers of animals and things and they told me at the time if I said any of that stuff at the trial that it would make me sound crazy and they just want to get this person on the assault charges.

A: Okay, and this is a person on a sexual assault charge?

D: on Macky.

B: You talking about Macky.

A: Okay.

D: I'd also like to say that I have and Mary can vouch this for me, that I have been talking about things like this for the last ten years and Mary has tried to get me help with this from a law enforcement agency and nobody would listen.

A: Okay.

D: And that makes me feel like I didn't do enough that is someone would have listened and they would have realized that these people are really going on and that I wasn't making them up (pause) and the reason I am really concerned about my niece and what's happening to her and what's already happened.


D. Because all along when these thing happened there’s always some kind of a threat attached to whatever they just done to you. And if you get those all of your life you don’t want to talk to people
