New evidence gathered in JonBenét Ramsey case

[Jazzy1]

The Boulder Police Department is not giving up its decades-long investigation into the murder of JonBenet Ramsey. Days ahead of the 29th anniversary of her death, the department released an update on the unsolved case.

"Last year we gave you an update about a lot of the work that has been done to solve this crime and those efforts have continued," BPD Chief Stephen Redfearn said in a statement shared on Friday, December 12. "This case remains a top priority for our department."

Redfearn continued, "This past year, our detectives have conducted several new interviews as well as re-interviewed individuals based on tips we’ve received. We have also collected new evidence and tested and re-tested other pieces of evidence to generate new leads. Techniques and technology constantly evolve. This is especially true with technology related to DNA testing."

I never thought the parents did it even when the police pushed that theory for years. It never made sense. That baby was so loved and spoiled rotten. No one kills their kid over bed wetting, especially when there were no signs of abuse prior to the murder. I hope one day they will solve it, but the previous detectives blew the case early on.

What are your thoughts on this?

I dunno...I never thought the parents did it either.. but every year it seems the police or someone suggest another person..or some jailbird says they did it.. so I have no idea what to believe... I'm not sure they'll ever solve this.. and if they say they do know , my money will be on them saying it was someone who is now dead...so it can't be proven one way or the other...

I'll always believe the parents were responsible, whether directly or indirectly. I highly doubt that anything they could present now is really "new" or will change anything.

I don't know why Boulder PD continues to refresh the Publics memory of their detectives mishandling of the case. Either wait until they have strong enough evidence to officially close the case, or let it quietly slip away .

IMO only, early on it was said that a relative DNA was found,
but that individual was not charged for whatever reason,
I mean was that person thouroughly investigated? I believe
it was a cousin to Jon Benet.....

I always thought that her brother Burke was responsible for her death and that her parents had some suspicions but didn’t want to lose both children.

I thought the same thing.

The lifestyle that child was asked to live was not normal. That came from the parents and I suspect one of them. Of course, the brother could have become extremely jealous of the attention she received, but I still think it was a parent.

I go back n forth between one of the parents, and then they both helped by covering it up. Or the son did it and again the parents covering it up.
Bottom line...someone in that house committed the crime.

I believe Patsy def wrote the ransom note.
