Gilgo Beach DNA ruling gives JonBenét Ramsey's dad new hope
Share this @internewscast.com

The father of JonBenét Ramsey is optimistic that employing cutting-edge DNA testing, similar to what was used in the Gilgo Beach murder investigation, will bring closure to the case of his 6-year-old daughter’s murder.

In a conversation on “Banfield” on Wednesday, John Ramsey shared that he plans to meet with the police soon, following a New York judge’s decision to permit the use of DNA evidence from old, severely degraded samples, processed through genome sequencing by California’s Astrea Forensics.

“This represents a significant leap forward, and I am convinced this approach will lead to solving our case,” Ramsey stated. He expressed confidence that there’s a “very good chance” the case could be cracked open if this technique is utilized.

“I’ve recently discovered that data can indeed be extracted from hair samples. We possess several such unidentified hair samples from JonBenét’s crime scene,” he mentioned.

The body of JonBenét, a child beauty pageant contestant, was found in the basement of her family’s home Dec. 26, 1996. She had been strangled.

On the morning of the incident, Patsy Ramsey made a 911 call reporting her daughter missing, along with a ransom note found at the scene. The note demanded a $118,000 ransom for the child’s return.

To date, no one has been prosecuted in the case. In 2008, a prosecutor officially ruled out JonBenét’s family as suspects, based on DNA evidence.

Boulder police found DNA evidence of an unidentified male on JonBenét’s body, and years later found DNA from the same male on her tights.

“I have another meeting scheduled with the police chief. I had a discussion with them in January, and I have another one planned in about a week or so. My message is clear: we need to adopt this technique. I’m convinced it will crack the case,” added Ramsey.
