John Ramsey, the father of the slain six-year-old JonBenét Ramsey, says police are waiting for him to die so they can forget about his daughter’s murder case.
In 1996, JonBenét was found dead with a garrote around her neck in the basement of her family’s home. An autopsy by the Boulder City Medical Examiner determined that the girl had been beaten and strangled to death and had an eight 1/2-inch (22 cm) fracture on her skull.
Ramsey and his late wife, Patsy, were initially named suspects of the crime based on probable cause, but they were ultimately found innocent.
