From 1962 to 1977, he (with the help of a partner) committed more than forty acts of murder and was sentenced to life in prison.

    The murder of a small child on a Christmas night was one that shocked the nation, and ignited a fierce demand to find the killer. Countless theories have been brought forth on the death of JonBenét Ramsey, but due to a profusion of contradicting evidence and multiple errors in the course of the investigation, the party responsible was never caught. Although the guilty individual, or individuals, will probably never be prosecuted, in light of certain evidence, behaviors, and circumstances, it is highly likely that John and Patsy Ramsey murdered their child. There is an abundance of evidence that, with logic and reasoning, supports this theory, that John and Patsy Ramsey are responsible for JonBenét’s death. Remnants of supplies involved in…

    The motive, a cornerstone to a successful criminal investigation, is often glorified by television crime series as the missing piece to the puzzle, and until one is identified, the case is cold. Even when the facts, chronological records, and circumstances unanimously determine guilt, justice struggles to bring remote comfort. Determining that indeed it was the Butler, in the conservatory with a candlestick, still provokes a troubling, unanswered question, why? Like a crime without the discovery of a motive, are students without the inclination or willingness to identify the reason for their college attendance. Although William Zinsser proposes in his article, “College Pressures,” that students have become victim to the competition, rigorous coursework, and demands of college, it is the motive of the student that determines their college experience.…

    In Poe’s detective stories “The Murders in the Rue Morgue” and “The Purloined Letter,” Dupin serves as a model of rational deduction. Dupin seems to have almost supernatural deductive ability in solving mysteries. Since Dupin’s use of reason to solve mysteries is central to these stories, determining Poe’s views on the nature of reasoning is critical to an understanding of their meaning. Hurh (2012) argues that the description of Dupin’s dual nature of “the creative and the resolvent” (Poe, 1841/1975, p.144) alludes to an analytical method called “the regress” (p. 471, 476).…
