Case of most interest besides JtR poll

[Khanada]

Wot's Lizzie Borden doing there? When the case is named after the perp, can it be classified as 'unsolved'?

Well, if you're disposed to believe that Lizzie actually did it, I can see where it does sound strange. If you're disposed to think that she didn't, or at least that you're unsure, then she belongs here.

I voted Other case: Kennedy assassination.

That is one of the beauties of hindsight.

How can we possibly leave out JonBenet Ramsey?

[Roy Corduroy]

Thank you Kensei,

I vote Other - JonBenet

[Shelley]

I'd vote JonBenet Ramsey. I'm sure that it was someone who got in and knew the family, sadist definately. It's a crying shame, she should have had a whole life in front of her.

Dear Professor Reid,sor...

I would have put down "Who Nailed Jesus?"...only because I got that baby down to two suspects...The Romans or The Jews.

Seriously though....I'd go with Mike's "Thames Torso" or our "Cleveland Torso".

I've got three suspects...The Chinese...The Eygptians or the Romans!

[Howard Brown]

Shell:

I didn't figure in the Chinese....because they didn't wear the standard issue armor of a Roman soldier like you see in the recreations of Golgotha...or that of your typical Jewish henpecked husband of the period....good thinkin'.

I suppose there might be a "chink in the armor" of my Roman/Jew theory after all.

The BD case definately,from that list-- maybe because it's so disturbing and at the end of the day 'That Photo' makes MJK look quite OK- or perhaps I'm just becoming immune to it!

Shelley-
DON'T get me going on JonBenet (Spookily I've just been doing a lot of reading on just that!)- Now there we DO have a serious mystery and a heck of a lot of wrong footing - and that's before we leave the house- leaving not a single footprint of course- if indeed there was markable snow!........IMHO!

I said don't get me going!!

[Roy Corduroy]

The BD case

That was my second choice, Suze. Its so noir.
No matter how you slice it

A cutting remark Roy!!! THAT photo is something else though isn't it- and of course there's the 'I thought it was a shop mannequin' line -now that really gives me the willies!!!

[sdreid]

The first 8 are the ones that most intrigue me. Borden would be about #15 on my list but I felt I should include it because of tradition. Ramsey is an interesting case but it's a little too new to really draw me in yet. If I could have listed 20, perhaps it would have been on there. And, I added "Other" to make it more interactive. Just giving out my method.

the 'I thought it was a shop mannequin' line -now that really gives me the willies!!!

Me too!

But I didn't get a Wonka. And that's a good thing.

[Ravenstone]

From that list, I'd go for Zodiac or Black Dahlia. But I'd also like to vote for the Charles Bravo case, and the Oscar Slater case. And Edalji, purely for historical interest.

[Suzi]

Hiya-
It's that JonBenet thing that itches at me tho'- There's loads of stuff online taken from any angle you can imagine- seriously scary stuff....and ongoing......
