MURDERED: JonBenét Ramsey

The case of JonBenét Ramsey, is one of our most requested cases by our listeners since the start of The Murder Diaries.

Honestly, we avoided it for a long time because of the amount of rumors and theories there are about what “really” happened.

You could literally spend years going down rabbit holes on some of these arguments, but the thing is, no matter how convincing a theory might be, JonBenét Ramsey’s murder remains unsolved to this day, and she deserves to have her story told. And not in the way that the true crime community has done so over the years, inadvertently immortalizing her as a child beauty queen.

When it comes down to it, JonBenét Ramsey was a 6-year-old girl, whose life and future were stolen from her.
