In the early morning hours of December 26, 1996, a 39 year old stay-at-home mom in an upscale neighbourhood of Boulder, Colorado made a shocking discovery. Her 6-year-old daughter had been kidnapped while the family slept and a mysterious ransom note had been left in her place.
The handwritten 2-and-half page letter demanded $118,000 and instructed the family to wait for a call later that morning from the kidnappers. They warned that any contact with police would lead to their daughter’s murder.
It was the beginning of one of the longest and most baffling true crime whodunnits of all time that continues to raise questions 25 years later.
On this episode of History of the 90s host Kathy Kenzora looks back at back at the mysterious case of JonBenet Ramsey.
