As we approach the tragic anniversary of the murder of JonBenet Ramsey, the Boulder Police Department is providing its annual update about the ongoing homicide investigation.

“Last year we gave you an update about a lot of the work that has been done to solve this crime and those efforts have continued. This case remains a top priority for our department,” Boulder Police Chief Stephen Redfearn said. “This past year, our detectives have conducted several new interviews as well as re-interviewed individuals based on tips we’ve received. We have also collected new evidence and tested and re-tested other pieces of evidence to generate new leads. Techniques and technology constantly evolve. This is especially true with technology related to DNA testing. Detectives continue to consult with outside experts from across the country, as well as our state and federal partners to strategizeand explore all options when it comes to evidence testing. While we cannot go into the specific of who we interviewed, what we tested and what we've learned without compromising our active investigation, we know it's important to share this update with our community."

Redfearn also said he has personally met with the Ramsey family to inform them about some of the work being done. 

The Boulder Police Department encourages anyone with any information to contact detectives at [email protected] or by calling the Boulder Police tipline at 303-441-1974.
