I don't know if there was a candy cane missing beforethe 911 call - - just can't tell but it must be possible because I do know some investigators were interested in this one.The man had the candy cane and I believe he told someone about it - - maybe even showed it to a person who called it in.
There were a few with "shrines" as i recall.
There were a few Boulder strange ones who has visions of JonBenét after the murder - - I hope they were checked out too.
