00:00Oh, hello, I'm Jean Benet.
00:06It was a case that people couldn't stop talking about.
00:10Some people don't think it's ever going to be solved.
00:13Prior to Christmas Day of 1996, we were just a regular family.
00:17And of course, then that all changed.
00:23Someone killed this six-year-old child.
00:28Would you mind taking us through the day?
00:30It was just unbelievable.
00:34Explain to me what's going on, OK?
00:37We have a kidnap.
00:38There's a note left on our top of the door.
00:41It received national news attention right away.
00:45Jomany Ramsey was in child duty pageants.
00:48When you dress your child up, you might innocently
00:51attract a predator.
00:52Was there an intruder, or was the family involved?
00:55The press was going wild at birth of the killer.
00:57I thought, this is crazy, he didn't write that note.
00:59The amount was $118,000, which is really bizarre.
01:04The tabloids were crucial in pushing the narrative.
01:07They were untrue, unfounded, but that didn't matter.
01:10It was a good story.
01:11People hated the Ramseys.
01:13It's like, oh my god, how low can you go?
01:15And bam.
01:17I did not kill my daughter, Jean Benet.
01:20The Boulder Police Department made a lot of mistakes
01:23early on in this case.
01:25Was there a concern that some crucial evidence
01:27might have been lost?
01:29That lack of experience created a lot of problems
01:32in the crime scene.
01:33There is evidence of an intruder.
01:35I say this over and over and over again.
01:38If this case is ever going to be solved,
01:40we might be looking at the best chance right now.
01:42I love Benet.
01:46Die accidentally.
01:48We've been ruling people out for the wrong reasons.
01:51Everybody should be back on the table.
01:53We have to go deeper.
