did the Santa do it?

Part 2: No, the *sole* scenario that makes sense is that John wrote the note to stall Patsy, avoid cops, withdraw the “ransom” money, hide the body. But the only thing it succeeded in doing is to buy him time. As stated above, he did indeed disappear multiple times that morning. Boulder Police Detective Linda Arndt became so alarmed as the body was brought up, as she leaned over the body across from John, she stated that it was an almost visceral response, she and John made eye contact, and in the brief moment, he knew that she knew he did it, she could see the frenzied panic in his eyes, and so she counted her bullets, trying to anticipate who he might fire at first.
Again, when you understand that the purpose of the note centered on Patsy, then it all makes sense. The “foreign faction” was to terrorize Patsy, as were the threats of beheading. It explains his disappearance, it explains why he didn’t follow the detectives instructions and instead bolted into the wind cellar to start the search (as documented by his BFF Fleet), and just sooooooo much more. It explains why he lawyered up, why he stopped interrogations, why he booked a plane and planned to leave in mere minutes of discovering her body, on and on and on. It explains Patsy’s behavior that day too — by all accounts, she was hysterical for many months and was kept under heavy sedation, most noticeably seen in their CNN interview the week after the murder.
For sure, BPD completely fucked the case up, they were corrupt and unprofessional, but not more so than the actual DA, who literally allowed the Ramsey’s (John) to dictate all the terms of their cooperation. As did the state’s attorney too if my memory is correct, when she cleared the Ramsey’s, what a clown she was, she should be disbarred for that stunt — have you ever heard of a poof black/brown person getting eliminated along with an apology from LEO? But even with all that, there is still a prosecutable case if they would hire a DA with balls. I originally thought the new DA might finally go after them, but nope!
If you run the case through the lens of facts only, then a few things are clear, one of which is that the killer wrote the note (obviously). We know JonBenet was never kidnapped. We know she was sexually assaulted both that night, and at least one other time. We know that the killer placed JB in an obscure part of the house that could not be found by a stranger. We know that the killer put the note on the circular staircase used by the family, so the killer knew their routine and location in the house. We know that real random notes are always, and I do mean always, very short. We know that a child-murder is 13-1 the eldest male in the house. We know the blow was powerful enough to fell a 300 lb man (imagine swinging a battle ax over your head with all your might) and that she was hit from straight above.
We know the mag-lite is a strong contender for the murder weapon, we know it was wiped clean of prints, including the batteries! We know that the window had not been broken earlier that year, we know no one entered the locked house because JOHN said so that morning as he walked the property checking all windows and doors with coppers.
There are a few people still alive who have knowledge that needs to be released. Detective Arndt was supposed to write a book, she maintained an extremely tight bond with Patsy and hoped she would reveal all she knew when she died during their visits.
John went to retrieve his mail while he was waiting for the kidnappers to call. Do you think that’s normal? To worry about opening mail? There was nothing John did that was in anyway normal, he never has, and so many don’t want to believe it’s that simple. Go talk to Fleet White, read what he has written and said. It is obvious who the White’s believe killed JB.
