JonBenet Ramsey's Father Wants The Case Reopened

[Road Runner]

Isn't murdering anybody though considered a federal offense when it's not out of defense? (Then it isn't considered murder though.)

 

[EvilCat Breath]

No.

There is no statute of limitations on murder. There comes a time when all things have to come to an end.

 

[Road Runner]

No.

Umm I think you misunderstood my question.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Umm I think you misunderstood my question.

You referred to murder as a federal offense.

 

[Road Runner]

You referred to murder as a federal offense.

Oh and you mean that federal offenses have statutes of limitation?

I'm just going by memory but wasn't there an issue where it was determined that the parents were responsible for a bogus ransom note?

No, they cleared them when DNA was of an unknown male on her underwear. However, they still don't know if it has to do with the crime, or somebody in the factory that the underwear was bought from so it is incredibly possible for them to reopen the case.

The ransom note issue wasn't true?

I don't know what you mean, all I know is after the DNA was found they cleared the parents and the brother since it didn't match.

No some federal offenses have statutes of limitations just like state offenses. Murder is a crime that does not have a statute of limitations no matter whose offense it is.

 

[Road Runner]

Okay, but I didn't say the second quote thing.

You referred to murder as a federal offense.

Read that, slower this time. Murder CAN be a federal offense, see how, you posted it. Murders that do not have these characteristics is NOT a federal offense. Referring to murder as a federal offense is in error since obviously, not all murders are a federal offense. The murder of Jon Benet Ramsay is not a federal offense.

If that girl's murderer was never brought to justice, how could the case be closed? The same thing goes for that girl named Caylee Anthony.

God bless you always!!!

If you didn't know WTF I meant by a ransom note, why did waste time by responding with DNA evidence?

 

[Blackrook]

The reason the father wants to reopen the investigation is because almost everyone believes he's the murderer and that's hard to live with.

I know what a ransom note is, all I meant is that I didn't understand the situation regarding it.
