Cold Case Who Killed JonBenét Ramsey Trailer HD - Plot Synopsis: On December 26, 1996, John and Patsy Ramsey wake up the morning after a loving family Christmas to discover their youngest child, six-year-old JonBenet, is missing, a chilling ransom note left downstairs. Later that day, John Ramsey discovers his daughter's body in the basement, revealing the shocking truth that JonBenet had not been kidnapped, but was instead sexually assaulted and brutally murdered in their own home. The Boulder, Colorado police, who had little practical experience in homicide investigations, quickly cast suspicion on JonBenet's family as the most likely suspects, fanning the flames of media scrutiny and largely one-sided reporting, turning the case into a national obsession. Twenty-eight years later, that obsession -- and finger-pointing -- hasn't gone away, and the murder of JonBenet Ramsey remains unsolved. From Academy Award nominated director Joe Berlinger, this three-part docuseries investigates the mishandling of the case by law enforcement and the media.

00:00Oh, hello, I'm Jean Benet.
00:06It was a case that people couldn't stop talking about.
00:10Some people don't think it's ever going to be solved.
00:13Prior to Christmas Day of 1996, we were just a regular family.
00:17And of course, then that all changed.
00:23Someone killed this six-year-old child.
00:28Would you mind taking us through the day?
00:30It was just unbelievable.
00:32Explain to me what's going on, okay?
00:37We have a kidnapping.
00:38There's a note left on the top of the door.
00:41It received national news attention right away.
00:44Jomany Ramsey was in jail due to pageants.
00:48When you dress your child up, you might innocently attract a predator.
00:52Was there an intruder or was the family involved?
00:55The press was going wild at the birth of the killer.
00:57We thought, this is crazy, he didn't write that note.
00:59The amount was $118,000, which is really bizarre.
01:04The tabloids were crucial in pushing the narrative.
01:06They were untrue, unfounded, but that didn't matter.
01:10It was a good story.
01:11People hated the Ramseys.
01:12It's like, oh my God, how low could you go?
01:15And bam.
01:17I did not kill my daughter, Jean Benet.
01:20The Boulder Police Department made a lot of mistakes early on in this case.
01:25Was there a concern that some crucial evidence might have been lost?
01:29That lack of experience created a lot of problems in the crime scene.
01:33There is evidence of an intruder.
01:35I say this over and over and over again.
01:38If this case is ever going to be solved, we might be looking at the best chance right
01:42now.
01:43I love Jean Benet.
01:44What are you doing?
01:45Dying accidentally.
01:46We've been ruling people out for the wrong reasons.
01:52Everybody should be back on the table.
01:53You have to go deeper.
