DNA found on the body of JonBenet Ramsey, the American child murder victim, did not match her family, it has been disclosed, despite police leaving her parents "under suspicion."
The mini beauty pageant star was aged just six when she was found dead, hours after a ransom note had been left at the family home in Boulder, Colorado, on Christmas Day in 1996. It became a cause célèbre, with many theories, books and documentaries being released into the public domain in the wake of the killing.
And more than 25 years on, no one has ever been convicted of her murder, despite DNA being found at the scene that did not belong to anyone in the family. Now, according to an article in The Mirror, a new book by former Texas sheriff and author John W. Anderson, has shone a light on the circumstances under which police appeared to have kept the girl's parents under suspicion.
