"You will WITHDRAW $118,000.00 dollars from your ACCOUNT"

I think "Under the Radar" makes some good points, and I'm not sure that I disagree. I too suspect the Santa and his wife because the events pointed out in a prior post are too similar to be coincidental. There was at least one event in Boulder after the murder that was similar--a little girl in Jon Benet's dance class. That makes me think the killer was someone who either saw the pagents, or the dance school performances.

John Ramsey is one of the biggest cheapskates on the planet. Looking for bargain coach faires for his kids while he flies in a private jet? From accepting free funeral services for JonBenet to stories of JonBenet worrying about dropped sequins from her dresses to Patsy hiding shopping bags.

IMO The sum of $118,000 was picked purposely because that was an amount he would have access to without penalties for early withdrawl. It was true bonus money and not earmarked or deposited in Money Market account or any particular investment.

I never thought about that... I hadn't heard that he was perceived as a being a cheapskate by anyone before... I know they use to pay for the vacations their friends went on with them and such...
I do believe they are innocent, but that is a very good point and one I can't argue.... Do you know where I can find the info. on this?.... Thanks......

It was't because of a worry over money that his kids flew into Minnesota. It was time line for the trip. He didn't want to have to drive to Denver then fly to MI, MN was on his way to MI that is why he was flying there to meet him.

When where who how? any link ?

1. Does anyone happen to know what the Ramseys' insurance situation was ? Life insurance on JonBenet, for example ?

2. I find it puzzling that the Ramseys financial situation deteriorated so quickly after the murder. Surely they had investments of some kind ?

3. When I read the published copy of the note, it seemed to me that the writer was trying to be mocking and ironic. It struck me as the product of an adolescent mind.

4. The sum of money demanded is very odd. Why not $120,000.$250,000 or more ? The peson who wrote it must have had access to the Ramseys' bank account/s.
When was the household garbage collected before the Christmas holiday?

Just some random questions which crossed my mind.
