language “expert” claims patsey ramsey innocent, then later reverses himself

This is the entire letter sent unsolicited to Patsy Ramsey in June of 1997.  It was from Dr. Donald W. Foster from Vassar College, a self-proclaimed language expert. A portion of this letter is already in the book. Dr. Foster told Patsy Ramsey that he believed she was completely innocent of killing her daughter. In January of 1998, Foster was hired by Boulder police. This time, he did a complete flip-flop and told them he thought Patsy wrote the letter. When his turn-around was discovered he was excused from the case and eliminated from any “possible experts” on the Ramsey case list.

Federal Judge Julie Carnes from Atlanta dismissed a libel/slander case against the Ramseys before trial. She did so after reviewing testimony. Then she wrote a 93-page analysis of the testimony she had reviewed as to why she had dismissed the case before trial. It is an unusual look at the thinking of a highly-regarded legal expert after she reviewed depositions of so many people involved in the case. Her conclusions included that the Ramseys were likely not involved in the death of their daughter.
