It was December 25, 1996, that evening; the Ramsey’s were at a friend’s house, having their annual Christmas party. Late that night, when it was time to leave the party, patsy and john Ramsey’s daughter Jonbenet was sound to sleep on the way back home. When they went to put her to bed, little did they know that it would be the last time they see their daughter alive. Although JonBenet Ramsey’s killer may still be out there, her mother Patsy is most likely the suspect of the crime. On the morning of December 26, the Ramsey’s were supposed to go a family vacation to Disneyland. Patsy’s job was to wake the kids up and get them ready for they could leave on time.

So the theory is, is that Patsy got really frustrated one day and hit JonBenet really hard and knocked her out on accident. Then put her in the cellar while she was knocked out, but JonBenet soon regained consciousness and Patsy’s nearest tool was her paintbrush so she strangled her with

Some may find this piece of evidence not important, but the night of her death Jonbenet did wet the bed; Patsy HATED that Jonbenet was wetting her bed. That night she could’ve got so mad at her and accidentally did the deed. The ransom note was analyzed and Patsy’s writing was said to be a possible match to the note, but it was inconclusive.
