The police and much of the public believed jon benets


In my class, I am supposed to identify 4 pieces of evidence based off of the text I will include below. I am only seeing the broken glass window that was not replaced, and the ransom note... can you help me identify two more so I can start my paper?

Jon Benet Ramsey was a six-year-old beauty pageant contestant who was first reported kidnapped by her parents but, several hours later, was found dead by her father in a remote basement room of their house. The Jon Benet Ramsey case was extensively covered by the media (especially television), using film footage of the pageants Jon Benet had entered and usually won.

The police and much of the public believed Jon Benet's parents, John Ramsey and Patsy Ramsey, were involved in the death of their child. The Ramseys never appeared before the grand jury, which was desired by the police, because the district attorney thought they did not have probable cause. The Ramseys claim in their book, The Death of Innocence, that they "offered to testify before the Grand Jury, but they were never subpoenaed.

John Ramsey and his friend Fleet White were sent by the police officer left in charge to search again throughout the house for Jon Benet. Ramsey recounted: "We head down stairs, and I take Fleet over to the broken window pane and explain my breaking in their last summer. We look for glass splinters and find some small ones." Does it not appear strange that this wealthy man would not have had the broken pane replaced? Remember this is now December and cold air is seeping into his basement. Why was it important for Ramsey to point out to Fleet that the window was broken in the summer from the outside? Perhaps because it was recently broken from the inside? Why Ramsey would break the window from the inside is of legitimate interest to investigators. Elsewhere in this text is a discussion of the difficulty an inexperienced person has in staging a crime.

Sometimes a killer makes an effort to disguise a crime. Several means can be employed to make a death appear accidental or explainable, to misdirect the efforts of investigators, or to conceal the perpetrator's own involvement. This possibility is further supported by the anomalous kidnap note in the Ramsey case. Among other unusual things was its length (about 400 words), compared to an average length of about 40 words (as in the first Lindbergh ransom note)."
