Pat Psy Ramsey Case

“You can get away with murder in this country,” Patsy Ramsey said to gardener, Brian Scott, on the afternoon of October 3, 1995 when O.J. Simpson was found innocent. That date was 14 months before she, too, would be getting away with murder. It was 5:52AM on December 26, 1996 when the Boulder, Colorado police department got a call from Patsy Ramsey, reporting her 6-year-old, pageant winning daughter missing. All that was claimed to be left was an oddly long ransom note demanding $118,000 for the safe return of the child. By analyzing the ransom note, studying the behavior of the suspects and examining further evidence found, and tampered with, one can conclude that the Ramsey family, including Burke, John and Patsy Ramsey, were involved in

“I just remember having that sunken feeling like something wasn't right," she says. "If you hear the frantic in her voice as she's speaking to me, where she couldn't even answer my questions, it immediately stopped. What bothered me immensely, it sounded like she said, 'OK, we called the police, now what?'"(Forman and Schmidt). Archuletta got emotional during the interview, saying she was told to never talk about the case until it went to court, but she was never called or interviewed about it again. She says she so badly wanted to be talked to again, saying she could help because she knew something was off about the way Patsy acted during the call. With new technology now, the 911 call recoding was enhanced to try to hear voices that were faintly heard at the end portion of the call, where Patsy thought she hung up the phone, but didn’t. Jim Clemente and Laura Richards visit an enhancement facility, to finally clarify what was said during that time. After enhancement, “we’re not speaking to you,” was heard by a man’s voice, that sounded eerily like John Ramsey using the type of voice that usually would be used in talking to a child. “What did you do? Help me Jesus,” was then heard after by a female voice that could only be Patsy, and finally a smaller voice said, “What DID you find?” (Forman and Schmidt) Which could be the only child in the house, Burke Ramsey. Although this

But on the day of December 26, that did not happen. Police never got statements from anyone in the immediate family until almost 5 months later, and by that time the Ramsey family had gotten their hands on police files to help “prepare” for the interviews. Interviews with Fleet and Priscilla White, The Ramsey’s closest friends at the time, showed that John and Patsy were not being as cooperative as they were claiming to be on national news and television. The Whites eventually separated from the Ramseys, claiming that, they were frustrated with the way the investigation was going, nowhere. In “The Case of: JonBenét Ramsey” Clemente and Richards speak about how the District Attorneys Office (DA’s Office) was odd when it came to the grand jury and the actions taken during that time. The grand jury wanted to indict the Ramsey family, but after that decision was made the District Attorney for the JonBenét case, Alex Hunter, said to the public that, “…there is not sufficient evidence to indict the Ramsey family or anyone investigated at this time…” (Hunter, 1999). The Ramsey family was later cleared in 2008 for any involvement in the case by the next Distrcit Attorney, Mary Lacy. By clearing them, the case would forever be
