JonBenet Ramsey DNA fingernails and from a spot of blood

John Ramsey, 79, told The U.S. Sun that Boulder PD investigators were fixated on the idea that either he or his wife Patsy had killed their daughter from almost the second she was found dead inside their basement on Dec. 26, 1997.

Police later would recover DNA evidence - believed to belong to a Caucasian male - from beneath the slain six-year-old's fingernails and from a spot of blood found on her clothing.

That DNA was not a match for any members of the Ramsey family nor anyone else closely associated with the case, though investigators wouldn't disclose the discovery for several weeks.

It would take more than a decade before the Ramseys were officially cleared of any wrongdoing, following an investigation by the District Attorney's office in 2008.

Their clearance came thanks to developments in touch DNA. A letter of apology was sent to the Ramseys, but it came two years too late for Patsy, who passed away in 2006 from ovarian cancer.

"And they were told to just bring this intense pressure, 'we know it was the parents, we just don't know which one because they were both at the house.'

"They were told: 'Forget about the unidentified male DNA, that's not important in this case,' and then they used the media to increase that pressure on us.
