Does having someone cleared of dna evidence really say anything? All it says is that you were not there at the time, but it does not mean you weren't involved just like how someone can pay a hitman to do all the dirty work but it doesn't mean that you remain absolved as the employer of the hitman. I get real suspicious of people who dress up their very young daughters with makeup and all.

BOULDER, Colo. - A new Boulder County district attorney plans to take a new look at one of the country's most high-profile cold cases - the slaying of 6-year-old JonBenet Ramsey. Incoming District Attorney Stan Garnett said he'll decide what to do with the investigation in his first 30 days on the job, which he starts Jan. 13. His predecessor, Mary Lacy, publicly exonerated the Ramsey family this year in the Dec. 26, 1996, murder. "I want to look very closely at the resources of the DA's Office and make a careful decision about what resources to continue to expend on the case," Garnett said. He said he is thinking of sending the case back to the police. The DA's office took over the investigation in 2002 because of concerns about the police department's handling of it. Garnett said the police department likely has more resources now and is better equipped to handle the investigation. JonBenet was a 6-year-old beauty queen when she was found bludgeoned and strangled in the basement of her parents' Boulder home just after Christmas in 1996. The case has taken many twists and turns, starting with former DA Alex Hunter declaring soon after the murder that JonBenet's parents, John and Patsy Ramsey, were under "an umbrella of suspicion.... |

This is one of the things I like about the justice system and high profile cases in the US, they never let them die unless there is sure evidence of the killer that did the crime.

Previously sealed court documents released Friday show that a grand jury voted in 1999 to indict the parents of JonBenet Ramsey with charges of child abuse resulting in death and being accessories to a crime. The district attorney decided that year, however, not to file charges due to what he said was insufficient evidence. In 2008, a district attorney said that new DNA evidence cleared the parents and their son in the death. Ref. CNN
