25 TOM HANEY: Next one is number 182.  
 
0400 
1 TRIP DEMUTH: I think it is a piece of an  
2 ornament.  
3 PATSY RAMSEY: A piece of an ornament? Was  
4 182 next to 178?  
5 PATRICK BURKE: These are 79 through 81.  
6 TRIP DEMUTH: No. This is outside the wine  
7 cellar. Here is the wine cellar door. This is inside  
8 the wine cellar.  
9 PATSY RAMSEY: Are these little pieces of  
10 glass? What are those? See the little dots?  
11 TOM HANEY: All of that has been collected.  
12 You kept your Christmas trees in there; right?  
13 PATSY RAMSEY: Right. Oh, yeah; right.  
14 TOM HANEY: With or without ornaments?  
15 PATSY RAMSEY: Well, without mostly, you  
16 know, once we took -- maybe -- I mean, she helped me  
17 take them down, Linda did. So -- and maybe even her  
18 daughter before. So I don't know.  
19 TRIP DEMUTH: You would take the ornaments  
20 off before you would --  
21 PATSY RAMSEY: Usually because the one coming  
22 from my bedroom had crystal on it, and you have to haul  
23 it down the steps. The little table-top trees, the  
24 smaller ones, I would leave decorated because they  
25 would be -- kind of pick them up.

1 TRIP DEMUTH: Would you store those in the  
2 cellar?  
3 PATSY RAMSEY: No. The little ones went back  
4 in the cellar, by -- beyond the laundry room area. But  
5 if I could tell what kind of ornaments it was, I would  
6 know because the trees in there would have been the  
7 trees from the master bedroom, the play room, probably  
8 JonBenet's room. The larger artificial, play room.  
9 TRIP DEMUTH: So if you saw that piece of  
10 ornament, you might be able to tell where it came from?  
11 PATSY RAMSEY: And know which tree it was  
12 supposed to be on.  
13 TRIP DEMUTH: Okay. Do you remember any  
14 ornaments in this room when you were going --  
15 PATSY RAMSEY: Putting packages in there?  
16 TRIP DEMUTH: Any broken glass or anything on  
17 the floor that you recall?  
18 PATSY RAMSEY: No. I just don't recall.  
19 TRIP DEMUTH: Is it that you -- when you say  
20 I don't remember, is it that you don't know if it was  
21 there or not? I want to clarify.  
22 PATSY RAMSEY: Yeah. Well, I mean, it is  
23 kind of a scruffy room. It wasn't like a clean floor,  
24 so there could have been a broken one there.  
25 TRIP DEMUTH: And you didn't know it?  
 
0402 
1 PATSY RAMSEY: Didn't pay any attention to  
2 it, yeah.
