In Part II of our JonBenét Ramsey deep-dive, we move beyond the ransom note and early-morning timeline to examine what happened once law enforcement stepped inside the Ramsey home. This episode explores the crime scene mishandling, conflicting statements, forensic evidence, and the rapidly shifting focus of investigators during the first 48 hours of the case.
We break down:
-
How the crime scene was compromised within minutes
-
Why critical evidence was lost before investigators ever documented it
-
Early interviews with John and Patsy Ramsey — and the contradictions that emerged
-
The significance of the ransom note, the basement window, and the garrote
-
DNA findings and why experts still disagree on what they really mean
-
How media pressure and inter-agency conflict fractured the investigation
This episode explores the pivotal moments that shaped the entire direction of the JonBenét Ramsey murder case — moments that continue to divide experts, detectives, and the public nearly three decades later.
If you haven’t listened to Part I yet, start there for the full timeline of the night JonBenét was killed and the ransom note that changed everything.
