...good deal of this information came from the Ramseys during a New Year's Day interview on CNN in Atlanta, where they had gone for JonBenet's funeral at the Peachtree Presbyterian Church, site of her baptism. By then, both parents had hired attorneys (and subsequently a media adviser). Why? John answered that a friend "suggested it would be foolish not to have knowledgeable counsel." Patsy dramatically contradicted statements that Boulder parents had nothing to worry about. "There is a killer on the loose," she said.
