It is also important to realize that incest, and the need to cover it up, is the ONLY motive ever offered in this case that makes any sense at all. However, the preponderance of circumstantial evidence points strongly in that direction. There is no point in demanding proof that John was having an incestuous sexual relationship with his daughter. If there were a smoking gun, we wouldn't be here.Ģ. As with so many cases, this one is circumstantial. But before I do, I must remind everyone thatġ. Indeed, how can we justify our endless debate over the mysteries of a single murder case, no matter how horrific, when the future of the world as we know it is at stake? Don't all of us have an obligation to confront this issue head-on? If we're concerned above all with justice then how can we ignore the all-important question of climate justice?Īs so many times previously, I now feel the need to once again outline the case against John Ramsey. I'm speaking, of course, of climate change and the question of whether or not it's any longer possible to justify business as usual in the face of what's famously been called "an existential threat" to the future of humanity. Indeed it would seem to be the elephant in just about every room these days that can no longer be ignored. What they all have in common, which for me validates their inclusion here, is the fundamental issue of: justice.įor many years now, I've become increasingly drawn, as have so many others, to an issue of far greater scope and consequence than anything we've covered or possibly could cover, in this relatively modest venue. Over time, however, we've come to consider other issues as well, notably the Amanda Knox case, the Darlier Routier case, and the especially mysterious case of Rebecca Zahau and Max Shaknai. This blog began as an investigation of the JonBenet Ramsey case, and it's largely continued along the same lines to this day.

I'll promptly respond with the full text attached. I am therefor inviting anyone interested in receiving an MS Word copy of the entire preprint to email me at doktorgosh (at) with their request. Over the years I've been impressed with the intelligence of so many who've contributed comments on this blog, and am eagerly looking forward to your responses. I decided to make a pre-publication version available to anyone reading here, in the hope that at least some followers of this blog will be interested enough to read it and chime in with comments, critiques and suggestions for improvement.
Needless to say, the topic I've chosen is of the greatest importance, which is why I felt so compelled to make at least some sort of attempt to come to terms with what I regard as the central issue, all too frequently overlooked. My only excuse is that the premise behind my little book is very different from any other I've seen, as should be evident from the brief introduction I've reproduced below. I've committed the unforgivable sin of writing yet another book on climate change.
