Description
The JonBenet Ramsey case has gone unsolved for more than 20 years. She was a 6 year old beauty pageant queen who was found murdered in her parents basement with a garrote around her neck and a bashed in skull. There are many theories and this episode delves into all the odd facts about the case. The theories of who killed her boil down to two (2) overall categories: * someone in the family, which means John Ramsey, Patsy Ramsey or the son, Burke. * an outside intruder was responsible. This includes a wide variety of possible candidates who had a motive for killing JonBenet. One of the more intriguing aspects of the case is the ransom note that was found by Patsy Ramsey on the morning of Decemeber 26, 1996. It is very interesting in that it is one of the longest ransom notes in the history of kidnapping cases. In the early investigation, there were many people, including the Boulder Police Department that believed Patsy wrote the note. Her handwriting was never excluded as being that of the person who wrote the note. DNA in the case also never helped solve the murder because there was no conclusive DNA found that would identify who might be the killer. A CBS documentary presented a solid case that Burke Ramsey, JonBenet's 9 year old brother was the killer. The theory presents a case where he accidentally killed her in a fit of rage and then the parents covered up the crime. Burke sued CBS for $750 million for defamation of character, and the suit was settled out of court. There are also a variety of people of interest in the case including the housekeeper, Santa Claus from the mall, her photographer and various other sex crime folks who lived in Boulder. The case is unsolved as of 20 some odd years afterward with no better ideas today of who the real killer is.
