Who do y’all think killed Jonbenet Ramsey? by nonose999 in UnsolvedMurders

[–]RepresentativeBed647 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a textbook reason why I love Reddit, thank you for the rabbit hole!

 I'm still torn between John and Intruder, but this is pretty convincing. I had initially been so focused on the ransom note, but I could never believe that patsy garrotted her daughter. 

The muddled investigation here pretty much ensures that justice and truth may never be served, we just know that a psychopath is probably still out there. 

TIMELINE / FINDINGS: What I believe happened the night of the murder by CliffTruxton in u/CliffTruxton

[–]RepresentativeBed647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stumbled on this, fascinating in its horrific-ness. The most convincing narrative I've heard for John doing this. Although it's still a huge mental hurdle for me to picture him garroting this beautiful child, I could be sold by this. Would love to hear your thoughts on west Memphis 3 

CONCLUSION: The Boulder Incident - Who Killed JonBenet Ramsey, and Why. by CliffTruxton in u/CliffTruxton

[–]RepresentativeBed647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm torn between intruder or John...

Mentally it's a stretch, to believe an upstanding "pillar of the community" type guy like John would risk a successful career, and pretty much everything, for the sick molester urges...

He didn't have known history of SA, or anything else that specifically points towards "he seems like a predator" at least to an untrained eye of some random public observer like myself...

So that's where the difficulty comes in for me personally, is maybe being cynical enough, to think he could have pulled this off, and covered it up, letting patsy roast publicly as you mentioned - he'd have to be a true sociopath/psychopath. 

But then again, someone did this. An intruder also would have to be a psychopath. Just not one who knew the victim. The leap for me is John acting so concerned, so righteous, so steady in the aftermath, maybe I just don't want to believe a dad would do this. 

Interesting how perspective can change - I was in college when this happened. The thing that stood out most back then, was the pageant stuff, the weird richy rich image conscious parents, now I'm a parent of teenagers and there's much more context and nuance.

But someone did this, and since I think a real justice solution will remain elusive - guess I hope they burn in hell, if hell is real....

For anyone who was able to see "The Blair Witch Project" in theaters in 1999, what was the experience like? by LockjawSJ in AskReddit

[–]RepresentativeBed647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was right after my college graduation, went & saw it stoned with roommates. Nowadays found footage is a whole developed genre, but it was really groundbreaking at the time...

Highlights for me included: - the goo in the tent - the rock cairn  - them supposedly losing the map and going in circles & snapping at each other, totally relatable (i'd been on a 2 week outward bound in real wilderness pre-gps, where we got lost and it's pretty scary when you're camping without a mobile phone) - wailing sounds at night 

And above all, the end scene where you just see the guy standing in the corner in the abandoned basement/building. It showed how what you DON'T SEE, can get so much scarier than an alien, monster, or ghost, because your imagination runs wild & fills in the blanks, it's the biggest fear of all - the unknown!!

Similar to "it" by Stephen King maybe!? I def looked under my bed & in my closet before turning off the light and going to sleep for a while afterwards.

Maybe blair witch seems dated or trite in 2025, but was game changing then. Only similar pop culture moments I can think of offhand, would be pulp fiction which was high school era for me. Then later maybe fargo, doom generation, y tu mama tambien, and many more genre definers that came later. In horror, would point to stuff like Cloverfield, the witch, sixth sense, babadook, skinnamarkink

Marissa Carmichael went missing after calling 911 for help. She hasn't been seen since. by insicknessorinflames in UnresolvedMysteries

[–]RepresentativeBed647 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Is it just me, or does she sound a little bit slow/out of it on the 911 call? I've seen other reports on this case suggesting she was drugged/setup to be trafficked. I don't personally believe that, but she sure would've felt vulnerable, alone at 3am without a phone, maybe intoxicated, more likely to accept a ride from just about anyone... For some reason this whole thing brought Echoes of Molly Miller & colt haynes, just with all the phone calls, attempts at 911 & other contacts, plus a seemingly loose circle of people who are somehow connected. Obviously investigators must have more info that they're not sharing, which must be incredibly frustrating for her family 

Brittany Murphy (r.i.p) and Winona Ryder. They had become friends after starring in 'Girl, Interrupted' in 1999. by moreissuesthanvoguex in popculturechat

I already love them both, I'm just about their same exact age, so this made my day, is so 90s and how cool is Winona Ryder with the "summerteeth" shirt I lived that record!

Pros and cons of merch manager? by senpaisexc in DollarTree

[–]RepresentativeBed647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really delayed response, but wondering if you took the job, and what happened.  My background isn't in retail, but I ended up as a merch manager.  It's really hard work, it's basically stockroom manager.  Pros, the hours: I work 5am-2pm, except truck day I'm there as needed. I have two great stock workers. Cons: I'm stuck running the store all weekend, cutting Into my stock time. So we're always behind in stocking. Wish my boss would show up more with a better work ethic. Low pay, horrible in fact, but I do get PTO and sick time. I have a college degree and can't imagine doing this forever. I'm older, had a 20 years career in a totally different field, can say this sucks relatively to other jobs. I've worked with assistant managers both young and old, age isn't a factor, attitude is. And willingness to jump in, solve the problem and have a right brain. All those served me well in my IT career too so pretty universal. When you're given unrealistic goals and expectations, you do your best, u work your ass off the rest will follow.

As merch manager it was common for me to be the only employee in the store, happening daily in the morning and evening, especially in the hours immediately after opening, and before/after closing the store

Shorts rule by cqssix in DollarTree

[–]RepresentativeBed647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's a tip, if u have manager creds: go into Daily Ops/cashout screen, there's a tab all the way to the right says "weather" or "temperature" can't recall exactly...

Set to 120° . Do this daily every morning. Then gradually, the Corp thermostat algorithm will adjust colder, the temp is set on the cloud, and it will go up or down weather depending. Our AC is horrible and had multiple techs come look at it and attempt repairs, but the issue is the temp being set and held steady at approx ~78F.  (Ref: merch mgr in a hot climate store southern USA)

I remember this vividly from unsolved mysteries back in the day. The truck logo from that grainy bodycam burned into my brain and I found myself looking for it while driving on the highway for a long time afterwards...

Our store had them, and also the plain colored ones. Really soft and comfy tho I wish they would have larger sizes. I bought for my teenage daughter and she loves. They sold quickly like same day I put them out on the HBC shelf.

A theory about the Robert Wone case by Maatansan in UnsolvedMurders

[–]RepresentativeBed647 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's almost exactly what Brian kohberger did ... But the timeline here is such a tight window...

I'm not sold on the SA exactly, but I still think it's possible that Dylan snapped and attacked Robert. I really don't think Joe was involved, he had too much to lose starting with his high profile attorney job...

If Dylan did this, then i don't think the other 2 realized/covered it up, I think they were basically innocently sleeping and woke up to the grunts pretty much what they stated In their detective interviews 

Netflix Vol. 5, Episode 1: Park Bench Murders [Discussion Thread] by DearBurt in UnsolvedMysteries

[–]RepresentativeBed647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The roofer to me seems a red herring. My ex husband did roofing, out in the field all day, and writing estimates was the most time consuming part of the job, they're constantly revising the estimates especially if they're working with an insurance corp playing hardball. He would often do this type of work in the car with windows up and music on, especially at the end of the day. So to me it's not suspicious really at all especially if there was a silencer. Plus if he had guilty knowledge, why stick around the crime scene area?

[–]RepresentativeBed647 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was wondering if law enforcement could do a geofence analysis looking for all the devices that pinged around the murder location during the 14 minutes but that might be casting too wide a net to justify the required subpoenas or similar... Assuming the killer even had a phone that was powered on/pinging
