2013 CHRISTMAS MESSAGE BY UNIT 1012
"Adoration of the Shepherds" by Gerard van Honthorst, 1622
|
God of all
gifts, we thank you for the many ways You have blessed us this day. As a God of
compassion, you know the holes that are left in our heart caused by the
senseless death of a loved one. While the world celebrates around us we long
for a Christmas past where we could have our loved one with us again. Only you
can understand the depths of our sadness, for You experienced the death of Your
own Son on the Cross to save our souls. Lord, for all of us who suffer through
tragedy, we pray that you heal us of the loss of our loved one who departed,
and dry the tears of sorrow that weighs down our hearts.
May Your
hand impart peace and healing to the downtrodden and bring justice to a land
who needs Your counsel and guidance. We ask for Your special dispensation for
families victimized by heinous crimes and for Your wisdom to reign in the
courtrooms- but most of all, we want in this season for Your will and way to penetrate
the hearts of the unbelieving who can never have the inner peace they long for
until You enter their hearts.
From the
Unit 1012 to your family, may God bless and protect this Christmas season and
open up more doors for legal and social justice to prevail. Amen

Unit 1012 wishes a Merry 2013 Christmas to Jon Benet Ramsey and her loved ones. The six-year-old beauty was murdered on Christmas Day 1996. Her murder has been left unsolved. Nevertheless, the comrades of Unit 1012 will honor her and she will be one of The 82 murdered children of Unit 1012, where we will not forget her.
Units 1012 DO NOT support a wrongful
conviction, so in her case, we will leave it to God who will judge the guilty
person who murdered her. We will remember how she live and not how she died.

JonBenét Patricia Ramsey (August 6, 1990 – December
25, 1996) was an American child beauty pageant queen who was murdered in her
home in Boulder, Colorado, in 1996. The six-year-old's body was found in the
basement of the family home about eight hours after she was reported missing
during a police search of her home. She had been struck on the head and
strangled. The case remains unsolved, even after several grand jury hearings,
and continues to generate public and media interest.
Colorado law enforcement agencies
initially suspected JonBenét's parents and her brother. However, the family was
partially exonerated in 2003 when DNA taken from the victim's clothes suggested
they were not involved. Her parents would not be completely cleared until July
2008. In February 2009, the Boulder Police Department took the case back from
the district attorney to reopen the investigation.
Media coverage of the case has often
focused on JonBenét's participation in child beauty pageants, her parents'
affluence and the unusual evidence in the case. Reports have also questioned
the police's overall handling of the case. Several defamation suits have been
filed against several media organizations by Ramsey family members and their
friends over reporting of the murder.
On October 25, 2013, previously sealed
court documents were released, showing that a Colorado grand jury had voted in
1999 to indict John and Patricia Ramsey in the murder of 6-year-old JonBenet
Ramsey on charges of child abuse resulting in death and being accessories to a
crime. However, then-District Attorney Alex Hunter decided not to sign the
indictment, saying the evidence was insufficient.
