Welcome back to another episode of Postmortem. I'm your host, Anne-Marie Green, and today we're discussing the unsolved case of JonBenet Ramsey. Joining me now is 48 Hours correspondent, Erin Moriarty. Erin, you have been covering this for over 20 years. and of course, producer Mary Murphy.
We have a lot to discuss, including a new interview that Aaron did with John Ramsey, JonBenet's father, and the latest developments on the investigation.
So let's get going. Welcome. And I'm so happy to be here to talk about this. I really care about this case. Thanks so much for having us.
But first, I want to remind you guys, if you have not listened to the 48 Hours episode yet, you can find the full audio version just below this episode on your podcast feed. So go and take a listen and then come on back so you can join our discussion. All right. Erin, like I said, you've been covering this case for over two decades.
You first spoke to JonBenet's parents, Jon and Patsy Ramsey, back in 2002. That was just six years after JonBenet was murdered. And it was a really interesting time. The murder was rife with speculation and conspiracy theories and the Ramseys were right in the middle of that. Why do you think they were so willing to talk to 48 Hours?
Well, in a way, in 2002, 48 Hours and the team that I worked with, we were a bit of outliers because they actually did polls back then and showed that most people in America thought that John and Patsy Ramsey had something to do with it. But we had really been looking at the real facts, not the rumors, not the things that appeared in the tabloids. And we were really open to the idea.
There was a lot of evidence pointing to the fact that an intruder could have come in the home. And so they opened their doors to us and we got incredible access. You know, at that time, Patsy was undergoing chemotherapy again, you know, her cancer had come back. And she took us and showed us her paintings that showed great pain.
