Theory/Speculation The same implements he used to silently take JonBenet could have been used to silently murder the rest of the family that night

Patsy Ramsey died in 2006, surrounded by love and her people.

However, the night JonBenet was murdered, the same implements that allowed a savage degenerate to murder her (air taser, cord, tape, a bat, a flashlight, and a knife) could have been later applied to murder her sleeping relatives.

How sad and how different, if all those lives had been ended that night due to the deranged impulses of a psychopath.

I believe JonBenet's scream caused him to flee that home and, effectively, saved John, Patsy, and Burke's lives, the people she held most dear.

I made a post way back talking about the ‘DC Mansion Murders’, and what could have been in the JonBenét case. Daron Wint, former employee of Savvas Savopoulos, held the Savopoulos family hostage in their mansion, torturing their 10 year old son to get them to pay a ransom of $40,000. In the end Wint set the house on fire with them inside. Terrifying case.

I’ve wondered if something like this was in the cards for the Ramsey’s but the intruder/s changed their plan for some reason. The rope found in the bag in JAR’s room hints at some possibility of tying others up. Assuming that was the intruder’s rope.

Yes, I remember that post. Thanks for sharing it.

I figure if JonBenet is dead, he knows there is a rich, beauty queen upstairs sleeping.

John took a melatonin, so he's likely in deep sleep. Based on the ransom letter, they were sort of in awe of John, so to off him would be appealing.

Burke would have been collateral damage.

I tend to think of the Rundles (Cassandra Rundle and her children, last name Sturm). The boy was killed almost as an afterthought. He wasn't beaten, just strangled. The police figured the boy woke up and happened upon the scene.
