The murder of JonBenet

I read JonBenet: The case that gripped America in BBC News Online. It told about the murder of JonBenet Ramsey in 1996 and gave a little background of the case, which helps us understand what is happening now with John Mark Karr. The public was very interested in this case, and always thought that the parents were guilty. They were mad at the parents for not telling the press much and for putting the child on stage as a young girl.

I think the parents are victims not only of a terrible murderer, who is probably not them, but also of their own ideas of what a good little girl should be. They should not have pushed the little girl on stage. I say this not because it is dangerous, but, because I think the girl could do other things that would be better for her. Being cute and charming is good but it's not everything. She could have had a better childhood. It's really a tragedy.
