Boulder Police Patrol Officer Rick French stood outside the doorway of 755 Fifteenth Street. It was 5:56am. A woman in her late thirties opened the door, dressed in a red sweater and black slacks. She did not bother introducing herself to the patrolman; she probably didn’t need to. Once she began to explain that her six year old daughter JonBenét Ramsey was missing, Officer French would have known precisely who he was talking to. What he didn't know was that he was now the first responding officer to what would become one of the most famous and controversial homicide investigations of all time. This is part one of our coverage of the murder of JonBenét Ramsey. Welcome back to The Lore Lodge...

Detective Ron Gosage sat at his desk drinking coffee. It was just after noon on December 28th 1996, and the investigation into what happened to JonBenet Ramsey two days prior was finally beginning to resemble an organized police operation. Like his partner Detective Steve Thomas, Gosage came to Boulder from Wheat Ridge, spent some time on the SWAT team, and had since been assigned to crimes against persons. As Thomas walked up to his desk that morning, his long hair betraying his recent move from the undercover narcotics unit, Gosage greeted his old friend with something of an understatement: “we’ve got some problems with this thing.” Welcome back to The Lore Lodge...

On January 1st 1997, Boulder Police detectives Steve Thomas, Ron Gosage, Tom Trujllo, Jane Harmer, and their sergeant Larry Mason were on their way to Atlanta. It had been seven days since JonBenet Ramsey was found deceased in the basement of a sprawling, labyrinthian home in one of the city’s nicer neighborhoods, and the police had very little to go on even after a full week of ceaseless investigation. Though they were firing on all cylinders, interviewing neighbors, friends, employees, and even potential suspects, one very big question loomed over the whole case: who were John and Patsy Ramsey, and what did they actually know about the night in question? Despite multiple attempts to secure an interview with the grieving parents, something always came up to prevent that step from being taken. First the Ramseys were too shaken up, then Patsy was too medicated, and not long after that they left town to bury JonBenet in the same plot as her older sister. For that reason, it came as something of a surprise when John and Patsy appeared on CNN that New Year's Day. ☆YouTube Source Channel: https://youtube.com/@TheLoreLodge ☆Original Source Video: https://youtube.com/watch?v=n3IlU8taZu8
