#0, Sharing a theory
Posted by jameson on Apr-08-02 at 02:52 PM
I will not identify the person who sent this theory - nor will I name the suspect. But I will share with you the theory of one person - a file I was asked to send in to authorities.<P>You tell me what YOU would have done with the file.<P>Names have been changed to protect the innocent.<P>First - this is the meaning of SBTC (according to this poster)<P>Suspect's last name is <b>S</b>kinflint and his wife's name is <b>B</b>etsy. They have <b>T</b>wo <b>C</b>hildren - - <b>SBTC</b><P>The man, Skinflint, is seen online ina photo that may have been taken in Atlanta.<P>In the photo, there is a sign that may be a sign for a restaurant and it says "The Hungry Dog". According to the poster, that was the source for the "stray dog" remark in the ransom note.<P>The man is wearing some black footwear in the photo and the poster theorizes they COULD be Hi-tec boots. Can't tell from the photo but they COULD be.<P>In the fall of 1996, just a few months before the murder, Mr. Skinflint was in Phoenix Arizona and there are golf courses there and John Ramsey plays golf so they might know each other. <P>Maybe John Ramsey played gold with Skinflint and bet his bonus on a game and Skinflint lost and so that became the motive for the murder and the reason that figure was in the note.<P>When Mike Skinflint writes his name, the poster thinks the M looks like the M in the ransom note but isn't sure about the S and the K.<P>A couple other points - - Skinflint once worked with a man named Johnny McReynolds who has two eyes and a nose and a mouth and could be related to Bill McReynolds who had the same features. <P>Skinflint liked - - let's say he liked line dancing - a popular pasttime in 1996 in the south. We don't know if John Ramsey liked to line dance but we know Skinflint did it all the time and was even on TV sometimes. If John was into linedancing, John might have wanted to know this man and they could have met through that.<P>OK guys - - your call - - do I carry this to Beckner and ask himto take a serious look at suspect Skinflint?<P>(I did not, and make no apology for it. I advised the person that they could, I would not based on that file.)<P>
