The Ghost of Christmas Past

On December 26, 2006, it will be ten years since JonBenet Ramsey was murdered in the basement of her Boulder, Colorado home. If she were alive today, she would be sixteen years old.

I read a sweet story about JonBenet that I want to share. Her teacher told this story.

One day, a kindergarten classmate of Jonbenet's brought in some cupcakes to share for her birthday.

Unfortunately, after she gave out all the treats, there was no cupcake left for the birthday girl. JonBenet said that she would cut her cupcake in half and that the girls would share.

Most kindergarten children would not volunteer to share a cupcake.

JonBenet's killer, of course, was only capable of inflicting pain on an innocent child. All this coward could share was his hatred. He enjoyed writing the long, cruel, anonymous ransom note that inflicted even more pain on the family and friends of this child.

This animal gets gratification from tormenting people. He loves to hurt people, so that's what he does.
