John Ramsey, father of JonBenét Ramsey is asking Boulder, Colorado, police to hand over evidence in his daughter's murder case to an independent agency.
to intervene in the investigation by putting an outside agency in charge of DNA testing. The petition notes that advancements in DNA and the use of genetic genealogy are leading to the solving of more cold cases across the country. The Change.org petition, titled"Justice for JonBenét Ramsey," currently has nearly 30,000 signatures.
While the district attorney at the time of JonBenét Ramsey's death said her parents were under "an umbrella of suspicion" early on, tests in 2008 on newly discovered DNA on her clothing pointed to the involvement of an "unexplained third party" in her slaying, and not her parents, John and Patsy Ramsey, or their son, Burke.
"We did get a response from the governor," said John."The meeting isn’t required. We just want things to happen. I felt if we could meet, I could tell him what needs to happen. The response we got from the governor was encouraging. He did listen to us. He didn’t make any firm commitments, but he gave us some avenues that are going to be available to pursue. The face-to-face meeting isn’t important, but the fact that there’s some movement is. He listened to us.
Commander Thomas Trujillo received an involuntary transfer from the investigations unit to night patrol and a three-day suspension. Trujillo was also placed on a Performance Improvement Plan. At the time of the announcement, Trujillo didn't immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
"We have a shared goal to bring justice – and hopefully some peace – to JonBenét's family and everyone who was impacted by her loss," Police Chief Maris Herold said in a statement released in May of this year."Our investigation with federal, state and local partners has never stopped. That includes new ways to use DNA technology. We’ve always used state-of-the-art technology as it has been at the forefront of this investigation.
