According to 68-year-old Colorado woman Bernice Johnson, who is presently jailed, the details indicated in the ransom note seized near the crime scene point to another suspect, Scott Caruthers.

Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Caruthers was actively recruiting disciples and sex partners for BDX. As a leader, Caruthers need “positive energy,” which the women possessed.

He’d also groomed young ladies, some of them were cult members’ daughters. Furthermore, John Griffin, Caruthers’ former driver, said that the cult leader was such a threat to young girls that he informed the state police. Based on all the missing clues, Bernice Johnson believes Caruthers was the mastermind behind JonBenet’s murder.

Caruthers, according to Bernice Johnson, was the mastermind behind JonBenet’s assassination plot. Johnson feels she can link the ransom message to Caruthers because of the phrase.
