A six-year-old beauty queen, a chilling ransom note, and a crime scene that left more questions than answers—the murder of JonBenét Ramsey has haunted the American psyche for nearly three decades.
On Christmas night 1996, in the quiet affluence of Boulder, Colorado, JonBenét was reported missing. Hours later, her body was discovered in the basement of her own home. The case ignited a media firestorm: a fractured investigation, a whirlwind of speculation, and a family thrust into the national spotlight.

In this episode, we untangle the web of conflicting evidence, botched procedures, and enduring theories that continue to shroud this infamous cold case in mystery. From handwriting analyses to DNA revelations, we explore why—nearly 30 years later—the name JonBenét Ramsey still sends a chill down the spine of a nation.
