comeuppance


Just when The JonBenet break up, some new band steps up to take their place drawing attention using JonBenet Ramsey's name....or for whatever Lady Gaga, death-metal, noise-rock reason a six year old's brutal murder is apparently so attractive to them.

When children go missing, or are viciously murdered, a standard in media relations during an investigation is to broadcast tender details about the child and family for several reasons. There are flyers with the child's picture. Rewards offered by law enforcement. John Walsh steps in with a plea. You know the drill all the way up to Nancy Grace coverage.

But for her parent's initiation, JonBenet's case was never given this chance. While law enforcement was busy pointing fingers, network media was too busy pushing out videos of child beauty pageants and stimulating public repulsion to that phenomenon, and her parents. I have for sometime questioned if there was some group think kind of influencer adding to the reason someone has not come forward with credible information about the killer, or second-hand knowledge of the crime. Is it because there is some kind of twisted perception JonBenet deserved to be tortured, raped and murdered? Is the crime unsolved the Ramsey's recompense for being upper middle class Republicans that allowed their daughter to participate in pageants? Bungled investigation aside, whatever perverted reasoning someone might use to justify the brutal crime, or for intentionally holding back critical information all this time, I just don't know. I do know the case has that flavor to me, there seems to be faint ring of truth there somewhere.

I have long assumed I would never find any understanding in the meaning of death-metal, and I still don't. But perhaps I am not so far off base in speculation that whoever did this believes they are fully indemnified for this crime. The underlying message from the media madness, public outrage and ridicule may still be very misunderstood by the perpetrator and his confidants, as if JonBenet had it coming--

devil in the details

Hollywood Florida's Police Chief Chadwick Wagner has set the bar for Boulder and others to follow for JonBenet and heinous crimes. Reviewing, investigating and now closing the 27 year long unsolved murder of 6 year old Adam Walsh case yesterday, Chief Wagner's dedication to the victim and his family is stunning in a world often plagued by mediocrity.

Clearing the Ramseys this year through breakthrough DNA testing was a winning step one from DA Lacy; time to finish the job--

Statement From Hollywood, Fla. Police Chief Chadwick E. Wagner
Adam Walsh Murder Case Closed
12/17/2008

"Prior to this year, I never actually had the opportunity to review the entire Adam Walsh investigation. I did observe the investigation handled by others in the Department and admittedly realized, even years ago, that this investigation had flaws. This fact was confirmed when I recently had the opportunity to digest the entire investigative file. Nevertheless, in the first few months into my appointment as Police Chief, I committed as a priority to resolve and conclude this investigation. I believe the Walshes are entitled to this level of commitment.

It is inherently my responsibility on behalf of this Police Agency to express remorse to the Walshes and indicate to them the emphasis we have placed on this continuing investigation regardless of the initial investigative difficulties."
