I've noticed several ironic contrasts in this crime.

A child, a symbol of purity and innocence, murdered with a garotte and blunt force trauma on the night after Christmas.

The child wrapped in a pure white blanket on a moldy floor with black duct tape covering her mouth.

John Ramsey required to place his money in a common paper sack.

John Ramsey raising money for a ransom demand while his daughter lie dead in the house.

Was the offender speaking through symbolism? Irony?

Any other contrasts?
