If Patsy had said, "yes it's true we kind of stonewalled there for a while, because that's what our lawyers felt was best -- but at this point we are willing to answer all questions fully in the hope that you guys can get beyond us and on to other suspects," that would have gone a LONG way toward moving the process forward.

Seems to me I saw those exact statements from Patsy and John in transcripts found in the book JonBenét: The Police Files.
