Breaking News: Ramseys Cleared?

MSNBC is reporting that a new DNA test called “Touch DNA” (that wasn’t available back in 1996) was recently run on JonBenet’s leggings, and the results, they say, clear the Ramsey family.

The discovery, from a new testing method, prompted the Boulder district attorney’s office to release a letter officially clearing the Ramsey family, including John, Patsy and their immediate relatives, of any involvement in the December 1996 death of 6-year-old JonBenet.

What I find odd is that apparently this DNA match is a match to a DNA test they ran in 1997. That’s what is written in the article. So with that, I have to ask what is new? Why the change of heart? Was the old DNA in question? Or is something else going on here? I’m rather perplexed to say the least.

You can read the DA’s statement here at the bottom of this article.

I have not trusted the Ramseys from day one (and still don’t), and I write about one of their interivews here.

What do you think?
