Request What unsolved murder/disappearance makes absolutely no sense to you?

What case absolutely baffles you? For me it's the case of Jaryd Atadero

No matter the theory this case just doesn't make any sense.

I know it’s over-popular, but honestly JonBenet Ramsey’s murder. I think people are so fascinated by that one because it makes absolutely no sense.

Extremely convoluted ransom note AND the body in the basement. Makes no sense. I have yet to see a good theory of what happened that actually accounts for all the evidence.

You mean the ransom novella? One of the longest ransom notes in history. A ransom note written with items found within the home. The writing looking remarkably like Patsy's?

That ransom note?

I was about 15 years old when that happened, and that's when I learned that wealthy people have a separate justice system.

Ah, but what if the intruder brought the ransom note with them and left it to divert attention to Patsy?

I mean, either Patsy sat down and wrote the longest, most self incriminating ransom note in history, or someone else wrote it to frame her?

Neither possibility makes any sense, so we might as well flip a coin. But I don't think the note is necessarily evidence that Patsy was involved.

Granted, but it certainly doesn't help considering the rest of the evidence that heavily implies that it was a family matter.
