Read our privacy policy DNA evidence collected from the home of JonBenet Ramsey nearly 27 years ago has been tested with the aim of using new technology to discover who strangled the 6-year-old beauty queen to death. Speaking in an interview with NewsNation last month, the child’s father, John Ramsey, said that he’s encouraged by the latest developments within the investigation, which might include new persons of interest. “We know there was evidence taken from the crime scene that was never tested.” Mr Ramsey said he wanted the examination of the materials to take place in new “cutting edge labs” that possess technology currently not available to the federal government. “I hope we get answers and more importantly, I hope her family finally gets answers.” The child’s body was discovered in the basement of her family home on 26 December 1996.
