In this episode of The Lawmas Podcast, hosts Lauren and Lacey dive into the JonBenét Ramsey case, specially on the media's treatment of Patsy Ramsey. Lauren and Lacey discuss children's beauty pageants in the South versus other regions in the United States and analyze how the media unfairly sexualized JonBenét's pageant participation.

Lauren & Lacey discuss the examination of the evidence supporting the intruder theory, including:

• Unmatched DNA evidence
• Similar break-in attempt at another dance student's home
• The broken basement window and suitcase placement
• Critical look at the media's treatment of women in the 1990s
• Comparison to other high-profile cases and media bias against women
• Personal reflections on motherhood, shared interests with children, and judgment of parenting choices

Two notable quotes from this episode from Lacey: "If anybody looks at a child in pageantry or on the beach in a bikini and has those thoughts, they're the problem. They're the pedophile." and...

"You don't know how you're going to react. And let's hope we never do, right? Let's hope we never have to know."

This episode of The Lawmas explores Michael Oher's conservatorship case and a broader discussion about protecting young athletes' finances in the NIL era.

But first: a question answered about Miranda rights and deaf individuals. Officers use written cards for DUI cases. They also discuss challenges with field sobriety tests for deaf individuals and how there are now translation apps for Spanish-speaking individuals.

With Michael Oher's conservatorship case, Lauren & Lacey explain how it extended until age 25, which is very unusual for non-disabled adults. Oher believed he was signing adoption papers. They talk about the lack of proper oversight and accounting in Tennessee and the Tuohy's handling of movie proceeds.

Lauren & Lacey also discuss NIL Implications. There is concern about young athlets managing sudden wealth, how some athletes start college at 17-18 years old and how there is a need for financial protection and education.
