From Times Staff and Wire Reports

The investigation into the death of 6-year-old beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey has led police back to her family’s summer home, where they looked for more handwriting samples. For at least the second time since the murder, Boulder, Colo., police combed John and Patsy Ramsey’s home in Charlevoix, Mich. This time, they were looking for “unrehearsed” samples of Patsy Ramsey’s writing, the Denver Post reported. Investigators are seeking examples of her handwriting before the murder because medication she has been taking since the killing has altered her handwriting, the Post reported. The couple and others have provided handwriting samples to compare with a ransom note Patsy Ramsey found in the home eight hours before the little girl’s body was found Dec. 26. Handwriting experts have concluded John Ramsey did not write the note demanding $118,000 for his daughter, according to published reports.
