Mikie, most of those posters would be totally out of sync in the real world of police investigations and admissible evidence. In their fantasy world, male DNA in panties and under the fingernails of a murder victim can be explained away by eating cracked crab with blood left by the chef, or wearing underwear that carried nasal mucus from Asia, or a zillion other silly stories. I've never seen DNA evidence tossed out based on such nonsense.

Helgoth's stun gun, his HI-TECs, the circumstances of his suicide and a possible motive in the Valmont-Pearl Street development project all add up to Helgoth being worth a second look. I don't think anyone, with the possible exception of his 'friend', ever accused Helgoth of murdering JonBenet. We don't know if his friend thought he did it or not. Could be the person who turned over the boots was hoping to collect the reward if Helgoth couldn't be ruled out.
