“There had been no transcript prepared for this interview, but a brief synopsis was written up by Detective Jane Harmer after she spoke with Dr. Bernhard. I read through the outline of the dialogue that had been exchanged between Dr. Bernhard and Burke and her assessment of the interview. She had expressed concerns about Burke’s “affect” during the interview and indicated that he showed little emotional connection with his family. I came away wanting to know more. It took some time, but I eventually obtained a copy of the video of this interview, and I reviewed it on many occasions. I was troubled by what I saw.”

“When there is life, there is a chance and reason for hope. One never knows what the future will bring, but as long as we are alive, there is the possibility for something good. Trust in the goodness and kindness of people. And no matter what, never, never give up. Make this your sustaining attitude. This can never be taken from you.”

“A ransom note had been left by her kidnappers, and evidence of her restraint and abduction were readily apparent. Why would Patsy feel it necessary to proclaim her innocence in the death of her daughter?”

“He stated that he thought someone had quietly carried her downstairs to the basement and that person had then either stabbed JonBenét or struck a blow to her head with a hammer. A chill ran down the back of my neck as I watched Burke twice physically imitate the act of striking a blow with his right arm during his casual discussion of this matter. I stopped and replayed that section of the video several times. It seemed absolutely incredible, but Burke was replicating exactly the type of an over-the-arm blow that would have been responsible for the head injury sustained by JonBenét.”
