Doing some studying and cross referencing and came across some old printouts I had saved. This one is interesting.
The subject was Michael Helgoth - and by then Frank was pretty much convinced it was the family and tried to clear anyone else mentioned.
I don't care about that but this bit did bother me as I read it today.
"The Ramseys weren't well-known in Boulder before the murder of their daughter. (As a Boulder resident I never heard of them.) JonBenet wasn't famous. JonBenet's name and photograph never appeared in the local newspaper while she was alive."
Well, I am not a resident of Boulder but I know the story of her father's business reaching a billion dollars in sales was in the paper, Patsy had been the focus of a magazine article (Colorado Woman??) and JonBenet had been in the parade sitting in a convertible. Famous? No, I would agree she was not famous. But the family was not totally unknown, either.
