New Discovery In The JonBenét Ramsey MURDER Case On Anniversary Of Death

JonBenét Ramsey’s murder case has been cold since 1996. Yet the story of the child beauty queen still captivates the nation. Police in Colorado are still “actively” working to solve this cold-case. They believe DNA evidence could be the key to identifying her killer 25 years later.

“Thanks to the huge advances in DNA technology, multiple suspects have been run through the system to check for matches,” Police said in a statement. This year marks the grim  anniversary of Ramsey’s death.

On the morning of Dec. 26, 1996, Patsy Ramsey the mother of JonBenét, found a ransom note for her 6-year-old daughter  located on the back staircase inside their Boulder, Colorado home.

Patsy called police around 6 a.m. She reported JonBenét as missing. Reports  at the time claim that the only people inside the house were John and Patsy Ramsey and their 9-year-old son, Burke.

JonBenét was found by her father inside the Ramsey home. Her body was in the basement utility room. She was found less than eight hours after Patsy called the police. The autopsy found that she was bludgeoned to death. The coroner, however, reported that she died of strangulation.

The ransom note found on the staircase requested $118,000 in exchange for the return of JonBenét. Detectives determined that the note was written with pen and paper found inside the home. That finding brought suspicion to the integrity of the note. Suspicions were high on whether the family had something to do with the little girls death.

‘AWM’ reported the latest news on cold murder case:

Now a suspect has finally been revealed. And it answers all the questions that many have had for years.

The two-part CBS documentary reviewed the evidence in the case and now believes that Burke, who was only nine at the time of the killings, maybe the primary suspect.

Experts believe that the girl’s death may have been accidental. Burke, who is her brother, had hit his sister in the head with a golf club a year before her murder because he was “losing his temper.”

The former chief investigator for the District Attorney in Boulder, Colorado, James Kolar, presented evidence that Burke might have been responsible for the girl’s death.

Patsy had left a bowl of pineapple and tea on the counter for Burke, but he caught his younger sister stealing his snack. So, according to Kolar, he lashed out and struck her with a flashlight, and killed her.

“My hypothesis was that I think the Ramseys came home around 9:30, 10 o’clock,” Kolar said. “I think JonBenet was asleep. I think John did carry her upstairs, Patsy remained downstairs with Burke and served him the tea and the pineapple. I think that accounts for the physical evidence as well as the latent print. Then she got JonBenet up to make sure she used the toilet, so she didn’t wet the bed that night.”

These activities sound like normal practice for most families. But then Burke saw something he didn’t like.

“JonBenet was up, she may or may not have brushed her teeth, that stuff was out on the counter, then I think she was up and awake enough that she was maybe still hungry and she went downstairs… I think if Burke was upset about circumstances or Christmas presents, he probably would have been upset about her trying to snag a piece of pineapple. Out of anger, he may have struck her with a flashlight.”

Since the documentary aired, Burke has filed a lawsuit against CBS for $750 million.

According to Ramsey’s suit, the action was filed to “redress the permanent damage” to Burke’s “reputation resulting from defendants’ false accusation that he killed his sister, JonBenét Ramsey.”
