Synopsis

Based on the true story of JonBenét Ramsey (August 6, 1990 – December 25, 1996), an American child beauty pageant contestant who was murdered in her home in Boulder, Colorado, in 1996. The six-years-old girl’s body was found in the basement of the family home nearly eight hours after she was reported missing. She had been struck on the head and strangled. Colorado law enforcement agencies initially suspected JonBenét’s parents and her brother. However, the family was partially exonerated in 2003 when DNA taken from the victim’s clothes suggested they were not involved. Media coverage of the case has often focused on JonBenét’s participation on child beauty pageants, her parent’s affluence and the unusual evidence in the case. Reports have also questioned the police’s overall handling of the case. This movie is based on Lawrence Schiller’s book, a thorough account on the facts. The case remains unsolved (May 4, 2012).
