Caso Arquivado: Quem Matou JonBenét Ramsey?

I appalled at the comments of both law enforcers, and non-law enforcers on the Ramsey's!! Carol Mckinley talking about how insincere Patsy looked, commenting on her wearing large black subglasses.... ?? Carol, why don't you let us all know what to wear and how to act when we walk out of the church following our childs burial mass!?!? Can you be more ignorant and insensitive? When a family member passes through "natural causes" it must be horrifying walking out to the insatiable media and their cameras... can u imagine if it was your young child that was brutally murdered? You're a disgusting person.

I remember when this case was unavoidable in the news and a national obsession, people passionately "believed" the parents were guilty based on weak circumstantial evidence, opinions about child beauty pageants, and police supposition.

Ignore the other reviewers who say it's a documentary series made by/for the Ramseys. The actual facts of the case are that the police jumped to conclusions, ignored and kept secret the DNA evidence that exonerated the family, but the police just "believed" the parents were guilty. Everything flowed from there. It was sickening media and police malpractice. The hell this family was put through reveals a lot more about the public's relationship to sensational "news" that was really just entertainment and clickbait.

I was surprised and disappointed by the fact, that the participation of John E. Douglas was not mentioned in the documentation. He was invited by the Ramseys' lawyers as an objective reviewer. He made an excellent analysis, including the behavioural aspect, especially of the ransom note and based on all this he believes that the parents are not the killers or that they cover up their son. It doesn't add up.

If you are interested in this part of the case, I recommend his book "The cases that hunt us", in which the Ramsey case is one of five or six cases analyzed, and the only one, Douglas participated in. (Jack the Ripper, Lizzy Borden, Black Dahlia Murder, JonBenet Ramsey, Zodiac Killer).

Important miss IMHO.

I knew the case of the mysterious death of JonBenét Ramsey from podcasts. At first view, the case is like hundreds of others - the child goes missing, no one knows anything, no one has saw anything, so the parents are suspects. The difference, however, is that here the police literally did everything not to solve the investigation. They make a lot of mistakes, and while collecting evidence, they forget why they called.

Could we find out who killed the girl if only the police did what they should? I don't know, but it would be nice if the police were not extremely incompetent in such delicate cases.

The documentary doesn't talk about anything that hasn't already been said. However, it's a very good summary of the investigation, the collected evidence and the theorys about the girl's death (perhaps focusing too much on one of the theories, but still).

It's sad to watch documentaries like these, because they remind us that sometimes the perfect crime is the result of a lack of knowledge and investigative skills, not a calculating villain with super intelligence.

It's worth watching, but it's even better to google the case and listen to a podcast about it (for example, "Deception Detective", who recorded 7.5 hours of material on the subject), because Netflix, as usual, omits a lot of police negligence, and oversimplifies some threads.

John and Patsy Ramsey are panic stricken one night when they discover that their six year old daughter JonBenét has vanished, their world is shattered when they discover her dead body in the house, a flawed Police investigation follows.

The first thing I'll note, this is not a series for the sensitive to watch, some of the content, particularly in the second episode is very harrowing, truly shocking.

It's a very revealing, in-depth look at what happened to that poor child, I'm sure we'll all have our views and opinions as to who was guilty, and what happened, one thing is clear, John and Patsy were truly failed by The Authorities.

It's incredibly well made, with some very powerful interviews, it's just a shame that The Boulder Police didn't offer up their point of view.

The Police carried out a truly shambolic investigation into the crime, why on Earth wasn't an experienced Detective called in to hunt for the killer?

The Media also deserve a heap of criticism, their behaviour was truly reprehensible.

9/10.
