JonBenet Ramsey murder case reopened

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/wor...-1225934434058

A FRESH investigation has been opened into the 14-year-old mystery surrounding the death of child beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey.

The Daily Camera reported JonBenet's older brother Burke, 23, is one person who has already been contacted by police for new questioning.

He was nine at the time her death.

Police investigated Burke and his father, John, after the 1996 death of JonBenet.

Burke was officially cleared of wrongdoing in 1999, and the rest of the family was cleared in 2008.

Police said they were continuing to work on the JonBenet case following recommendations from an advisory committee that met in 2009 to consider all of the cases evidence.

They would not detail who they had contacted in their new round of inquiries.

JonBenet was six when she was found dead the day after Christmas 1996 at her home in Boulder, Colorado, about 48km northwest of Denver.

Family members were suspects in the case but no indictments came of the investigation.

In 2006, 41-year-old John Mark Karr, a former schoolteacher, confessed to the murder while being held on child pornography charges in Sonoma County, California.

However, Karr's DNA did not match that found on JonBenet's body, and prosecutors announced that no charges would be filed against him.

That's fine, but I don't think it really merits national news coverage. Let them do their work in peace, whatever the outcome, and justice will have a better chance of being served.

This father has been through so much. I ache for him truly. I hope he has been able to find some happiness since his wife died so he is not alone in his grief and in everyday life.

They found unknown DNA on the body. But there's such a backlog for testing DNA of suspects in cases that are less "cold" that the perp may be in an evidence pouch some place and you'd never know it.

When this first happened, a neighbor was interviewed, a male, and he had such a smirk on his face; he was creepy. I thought to myself then and there that I'll bet he did it.

I think it needs to be solved. Is there a murderer running around, will he murder again? JonBonet deserves justice, as does her family.
One cannot let someone just get away with murdering a child.
Where does it end then? This case should not be closed till the answeres are in and the person responsible is punished.
