If you caught Dateline this past weekend, there was an interesting story presented about an ex-boyfriend, Nick Hillary, who was accused of killing his ex-girlfriend’s son, Garrett Phillips, age 12.
Dateline takes you through the story, Hillary’s arrest, and the trial.
In the end, there wasn’t much against Nick Hillary except circumstantial evidence.
Hillary chose to have a bench trial, instead of a trial by jury, and was acquitted.
What did you think of Nick Hillary?

Christmas Card Family Portrait — search web for image
With JonBenet Ramsey being a little “beauty queen” competing in pageants and center of her mother’s eye, you can’t help but wonder if Burke felt left out of the family. We can only turn to photos to see if there is any evidence of this.
When you look at this family photo of the Ramseys, it’s startling to me.
It says so much.
Who is the center of this photo? It’s Patsy.Not JonBenet or Burke–no, its her!
Worse, look at little Burke. He is literally put in the back–out of the way! It’s heart-breaking that his mom and dad could do this. Usually children are the star of family photos–the prize of the family, their pride and joy. But that’s missing here, sadly.
When I look at Patsy Ramsey, I see a woman who lived in fantasy. She created images in her head that she wanted to be reality and she tried to create reality around these visions. What reality was, however, was very different. I suspect she pushed reality away for her fantasies.
John Ramsey is pulling JonBenet close. Why didn’t he put his arm around Burke then, too?
Do you notice how JonBenet’s foot is turned awkwardly away? That’s a sign of discomfort–a pulling away. You can even see her dress is crinkled because of her pulling-away motion! And her hand is curled slightly, not relaxed. There is tension there.
When I look at JonBenet in the videos of her, I do not see a child who loves the beauty queen life. I see a girl doing what she’s told–smiling, not because its genuinely felt, but because she was told to.
Of course, it is possible the photographer of this photo made a horrible suggestion to put Burke in the back. But with all we know, Burke was sidelined when JonBenet became her mother’s “doll”.
Such a sad, sad story.

Burke Ramsey was on Dr. Phil last week, and yet again yesterday. He was quite an interesting person to watch speak. He seemed to have a permanent smile on his face as he talked about his late sister, JonBenet Ramsey, who as every knows, was murdered. It was odd and uncomfortable to watch, wasn’t it?
Dr. Phil attributed Burke’s smile to nerves. I suspect there are several other reasons why Burke smiled that need to be explored before we can conclude it was simply nerves. Burke smiled in interviews with the police and at the funeral of JonBenet, but there are scenes where he is followed by cameras and he is not smiling, which I found revealing.
Dr. Phil’s show seemed to heavily support that the Ramsey’s were cleared and innocent, but on CBS Monday and Tuesday night, top-experts looked at the case piece by piece in a show titled The Case of: JonBenet Ramsey. I thought they did the best job of any show that looked at the Ramsey case.
The experts on this show clearly identified why the D.A. should have never “cleared” the Ramseys. I was flabbergasted back when I read the Ramseys were cleared by D.A. Mary Lacy in 2009.
The CBS show also gave us many reasons why we need to look more closely at Burke–some of which were discussed and some of it wasn’t but was evident. I wish I could have been on that panel to discuss what I saw! I had many things to say that were never said! Please know I am working to get myself in a public forum where I can bring my analysis back to you (send some luck, too, please!).
In the end, the CBS show’s experts concluded that it was highly likely that Burke Ramsey was downstairs eating pineapple when JonBenet could have reached into the bowl for a piece to eat it, and Burke lashed out at her and hit her with the flashlight.
There was only one problem with their hypothesis: the pineapple was already in her small intestine–not her mouth, throat or stomach, which means the pineapple was not eaten at the time of the murder, but likely hours before.
So while I haven’t changed my original opinion about the Ramseys (I don’t trust them and never have), I do have more questions and think Burke did not do himself any favors going into the media like he did. His interviews past and present were very revealing and eye-opening, and for me, they DO NOT take him off the “whodunnit” list.

Many shows this fall are diving into the cold case of JonBenet Ramsey from Dateline NBC, to Dr. Phil, to the A&E’s mini-series, “The Killing of JonBenet: The Truth Uncovered” (which I am watching right now).
Are you going to watch any of these shows?
And it appears Amanda Knox is going to get a show on Netflix, too. What do you think of that? I have many opinions I could add to these shows! Maybe one day I will get my chance!
What is your opinion on the JonBenet Ramsey case?
Do you believe the Ramseys are involved, or are victims?
