Customer Reviews

Very In Depth

Great read, very detailed about the case. Brought up bits that I didn’t know about, and I am a true crime addict. The writing is well done, the information flows, and it’s easy to follow.

Excellent evaluation and explanation of the autopsy report

Wecht gives an excellent explanation in layman's terms of the autopsy report. His findings were based on the available information, before press. His scenario is most likely the real reason she was accidently killed.

Facinating and detailed.

Facinating and detailed. I'm surprised it only rated 3 stars by others. As a police officer maybe I have a different view of the case. Unfortunately in real life some murders are never solved.

Excellent synopsis

This book explores several different theories and the likelihood of each. Prior to the publication of this book I submitted a theory to Dr. Wecht. He actually took the time to answer me personally. Alot of thought went into his analysis of the evidence in this crime, unlike the tabloids some other readers have suggested.If you want a theory that Jon Bonet was kidnapped and killed by two headed space monkeys, then read the tabloids. But if you want the facts, read this book.

Excellent Analysis

I don't understand why other people have trashed this book. Cyril Wecht's analysis of the crime scene and autopsy report is the best description of the murder out yet. He is methodical, logical, and draws on years of experience. And, his scenario matches the available evidence. I think this is the best book on the JonBenet Ramsey case available now.

Great if you haven't already closely followed the case

In this book contains almost every documented fact about the little girl JonBenet's murder. If you haven't closely followed the case already, this book will get facts straight in your head as to who's who and what's what. If you pretty much know everything that has been released about the murder, this book will seem reduntant and boring. This book won't give you any new insider secrets or clues unknown, but Dr. Cyril Wecht plainly tells you his theory on the murder and explains the medical jargon he uses to support his theory. I think the book serves as a "fact refresher" and a good read.
