...sanitize" the house, no bid has yet come close to the mansion's pre-suicide value--about $1.5 million. The real estate agent handling the sale, Randall Bell, is an expert at moving "distressed" properties, having previously consulted, he says, on the sales of homes where Nicole Simpson, JonBenet Ramsey and Sharon Tate passed away, as it were. Not afraid to confront his chief marketing obstacle head on, Bell has renamed the property the Heaven's Gate Mansion, or the Gate for short--which, he says, is at least preferable to its usual media label: "the death house." --Reported...
...Bill Cosby's son Ennis, a beloved young teacher? Did the June settlement by the states with the cigarette companies hit the bastards hard enough? What was happening in the never ending investigation of the crash of TWA Flight 800? Where is the justice for the killer(s) of JonBenet Ramsey, whose case seems to stew forever? Where is the justice for Pol Pot, the most odious mass murderer since Hitler and Stalin, who was brought into public view on videotape in a Khmer Rouge show trial. There he sat, still as death, watery eyes, age spots, every inch...
...murderer of six-year-old JonBenet Ramsey not been arrested, almost 10 months after her bludgeoned body was found in the basement of her house?

"This public backbiting is out of control," says Craig Silverman, a former Denver prosecutor. "This was a good day for the killer of JonBenet." Silverman says the removal of Eller could prove disastrous should the case ever go to trial. "A jury will not convict if it doesn't trust the police and doesn't trust the prosecutor," he said. "Now it is clear the police don't even trust each other, and that will...
...Koby is said by some of his own officers to have more interest in community-outreach programs than in solving crime. Most of the time that approach might fit the needs of Boulder, where police spend as much time seeking bicycle thieves as hunting for more hardened criminals. JonBenet's murder was the only one in 1996. But, say critics, Koby should have realized early that his troops were in need of outside help. Instead, he seemed to resent the idea that anyone outside Boulder should even take an interest in the case. In a January appearance on local...
