3.0 out of 5 stars Justice for JonBenet!, June 14, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: JonBenet: The Police Files (Paperback)

This book is basically a record of all of the interviews the Ramseys have endured in the past 7 years. It is exact word for word reviews. This book isnt really for you if you want to know about JonBenet's murder and the suspicion that surrounds her controversial family. Although it was good, I have read better.
If you want to hear evidence straight from John and Patsy Rmaseys own mouths, this book is definately for you!

4.0 out of 5 stars Soft Ball Interviews with Kid Gloves, August 2, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: JonBenet: The Police Files (Paperback)

It's pretty obvious after reading this book that the Ramsey's were treated very differently than most parents of a murdered child.

Their attorney proclaimed on tv how hard ball these interviews were, how the cops accused them. I did not see that at all. They treated these people with kid gloves, and only asked a few times if they were involved. The clips that were shown on tv were these very few times. But the rest of the interviews consisted of an attempt to gain information about their habits and what happened the days leading up to the murder, so that law enforcement could solve the murder. I thought the cops were more than cordial to them. Patsy comes off being very hostile,phony and stupid.

They also tried to call the shots as to how and when they were interviewed. It took 4 months for them to have the first interview. Very telling.

After I read this book, I reread the Ramsey's book. It's amazing how Mrs. Ramsey recalled item after item of insignificant details about other events in her own book, but when interviewed by the people trying to solve the murder of their daughter she can't recall a thing.

I am glad that the National Enquirer produced this book. It's been documented that a friend sold these tapes for $40,000 to the Enquirer. My question is why would these people even have access to what should have been confidential information in an open murder case. What's sad is the case will never be solved, information like this, although interesting, helps the killer. The Ramseys and their friends should not be revealing information like this if they truly want the case solved. Just shows me that they don't.

4.0 out of 5 stars I Don't Remember, I Don't Recall, September 22, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: JonBenet: The Police Files (Paperback)

It's pretty amazing to read this book of the Ramseys' police interviews and see how much Patsy Ramsey cannot recall or remember. Then read the Ramsey's book "Death of Innocence" where tiny little details are spelled out.

This book is pretty incriminating. If one was not sure of the Ramseys guilt before reading this book, (like me), reading it may surely put you over the fence.

It's sickening how hypocritical these people were-- when comparing this to their book. And how little they helped the police. No wonder the crime is unsolved.
