From FoxNews: JonBenet Ramsey's father has high hopes for fifth Colorado chief to take on 30-year murder case
Chief Stephen Redfearn, who served as the interim chief for the Boulder Police Department starting in January, is the fifth police chief at BPD to take on the JonBenet Ramsey case nearly 30 years after the 6-year-old beauty pageant participant was mysteriously murdered in her home Dec. 26, 1996.
...
Evidence that has never been tested for traces of DNA includes the garrote found around JonBenet's neck, a ransom note found in the Ramsey house on the morning of the murder, a suitcase found in the basement that authorities believe the killer used to escape out a window, an unknown flashlight found on the Ramsey family's kitchen counter the morning of the murder and unknown rope found in her brother Burke Ramsey's room that day, according to public records initially obtained by journalist Paula Woodward, as Fox News Digital previously reported.
...
"We have an unidentified male DNA result from the testing they did in 1997, which … by today's standards, it was primitive," Ramsey explained. "But we have an unidentified male DNA sample, which was reported to the police in January 1997. They kept that a secret because it conflicted with their conclusion that we were guilty. How do we explain that away? Which they tried desperately to do."
Just adding this to the conversation...
[In retrospect, I owe Midicon and apology for this post, it was is entirely "off-topic"...
The topic is the excellent poem we were offered...
and all of this side conversation sort of ignores that...
Anyone care to start a separate thread about the Jon Benet Ramsey mystery?
You don't owe me anything Max, you are on topic and have given my poem a bump!
I dont think there is enough interest in such an old case that would give traction to such a thread. I did consider it.
There are too many 'side conversations' in the form of clues that distract and lead nowhere. I almost wrote a follow up poem that included Keyser Soze in one line!
I can't even bring myself to say what I think happened as I could be wrong.
Thanks for taking an interest and commenting here Max. I do appreciate it!
