Really? I haven't seen anything to indicate that Lin's goal in the interview was to have Kane declare the Ramseys non-suspects. As, you can see, that wasn't going to happen at this stage of the game and Lin knows that. I agree his ultimate goal is to stop the unrelenting assault on them in this regard, but in the scope of these interviews, what I see is Lin and Kane debating the underlying legal issues concerning clarity for the record. It is Kane that is trying to pepper the record, outside the agreed upon format, in order to unfairly say the Ramseys were being uncooperative. Lin knows that, too, and he is not about to allow it.

The real fool in the interviews is Kane. By his reckless disregard for the format of the interviews, he is further damaging the trust that was needed for the investigation. He is asking questions, deliberately, that he knows won't be answered because they are unfair, and then using that as a way to demonstrate that the Ramseys were uncooperative. If the true purpose of the investigation is to find the murderer of Jonbenet, how does this type of behavior further that goal?
