...t a perpetrator would most likely bring the note with him or her (Schiller 58). In an interview with CNN, the Ramsey’s would admit that the note had been written with Patsy’s felt-tip pen. (Wecht and Bosworth 51). Another startling discovery showed that the ransom note had distinct similarities to the movie “Ransom” with Mel Gibson. In the movie, Gibson portrays a rich pilot and businessman, similar to John Ramsey. When his son is kidnapped, Mel Gibson endures an exhausting course of events to get him back. In the ransom note, John is warned to prepare for a rigorous ordeal of physical activity. When Mel Gibson sees his son, his mouth his taped. JonBenet’s mouth was taped when John found her. The comparison has led officials to believe that the ransom note was thought up quickly. A true kidnapper would not duplicate a movie (Wecht and Bosworth 77). Another reason why the ransom note was unlikely written by a kidnapper was the grammar and format. The letter was written with proper borders and paragraphs. It was unusually long for a ransom note and was very professional. It was addressed to ‘Mr. Ramsey’ and included too many details (Wecht and Bosworth 47). John and Patsy Ramsey persuaded jurors and were not convicted of their daughter’s murder (Glick and Keene-Osborne 36). Six years after JonBenet’s death, no arrests have been made. Her murder is a puzzle that is yet to be solved. Based on the evidence, one can construe that JonBenet Ramsey’s parents murdered her. an interview with Barbara Walters, the Ramsey’s were asked “Why did you leave Boulder so soon after JonBenet’s death?” John claimed he tried to fly his family to Atlanta because the police told him to leave immediately. “We had nowhere to go,” John said. “We had lived in Atlanta for 25 years.” When questioned why the crime scene looked staged, John replied, “If I had staged it, I would’ve wanted the police to see it as I’d staged it.” (Cloud and Walters 50). The neighbors’ testimonies and John and Patsy’s strange behavior are all very disturbing, but the ransom note was the most influential piece of evidence against the Ramsey’s. Patsy Ramsey found a three- page ransom note on the back staircase of her home around 5:45 a.m. The note was addressed to ‘Mr. Ramsey’ and demanded the amount of $118,000 in $20 and $100 bills (Wecht and Bosworth 17). Coincidentally, $118,000 was the same amount of John Ramsey’s annual bonus. (Miller and Glick 34). The letter promised a phone call between 8 and 10 a.m. There never was a kidnapping or a ransom call (Wecht and Bosworth 17). Rumors flew when police discovered an 8.5 x 11 inch legal pad in the Ramsey’s home that the ransom note had been torn from. They also found a “practice note” on the page before the note that was torn out. This note was addressed to ‘Mr. And Mrs. Ramsey’ (Wecht and Bosworth 79-77). A kidnapper would not risk taking the time to sit in the victim’s home and write an extensive ransom letter. One would agree that a perpetrator would most likely bring the note with him or her (Schiller 58).
