Netflix Docuseries Revisits JonBenét Ramsey Case, Challenges Decades-Old Assumptions

The new series argues the Ramsey family was wrongfully accused and highlights overlooked evidence pointing to an intruder.

The Netflix docuseries 'Cold Case: Who Killed JonBenét Ramsey?' reexamines the 1996 murder of six-year-old JonBenét Ramsey and critiques the Boulder Police Department's investigation.
Filmmaker Joe Berlinger presents evidence supporting the theory of an intruder, including DNA findings and signs of forced entry, while disputing long-held suspicions against the Ramsey family.
The series highlights investigative missteps, such as the police's early focus on the family and the alleged withholding of exculpatory DNA evidence by authorities.
The documentary revisits key suspects, including convicted sex offender Gary Oliva and self-confessed suspect John Mark Karr, though neither matched DNA from the crime scene.
The Ramseys, officially exonerated in 2008, continue to face public accusations, but the series aims to shift perceptions and push for advanced DNA testing to finally solve the case.
