Nearly 29 years after six-year-old JonBenét Ramsey was found murdered in her family's Boulder, Colorado basement, Boulder Police have announced significant movement in the case. Chief Stephen Redfearn confirmed that investigators have collected new evidence, retested existing evidence with modern DNA technology, and conducted new interviews over the past year. Dozens of items are currently being tested at the Colorado Bureau of Investigation — including evidence from the basement crime scene that was never tested before.

At CrimeCon 2025, the Ramsey family's former attorney Hal Haddon pointed to the garrote used to strangle JonBenét as potentially critical, noting that DNA analysis of the knots could be "promising" since someone had to tie them. John Andrew Ramsey, JonBenét's half-brother, says it's "not if but when" the case gets solved.

But here's what's strange: as we get closer to potential answers, some people are suddenly saying "let it rest" or "let it go." After 29 years of obsession with this case, why would anyone not want it solved? The psychology is fascinating — and disturbing. Whether you believe the family was involved or an intruder did it, whoever actually committed this crime benefits from the ambiguity continuing forever. The ransom note — written on a pad from inside the home, with a pen from inside the home, demanding the exact amount of John Ramsey's bonus — has never been explained. Patsy Ramsey was never fully excluded as its author. The 2008 "exoneration" of the family remains deeply contested by former investigators. We don't know who killed JonBenét. But someone does. And they're counting on us to stop asking.
