Ramseys post vision of killer
By Jeffrey Leib
Denver Post Staff Writer
June 4 - John and Patsy Ramsey have posted on their Web site a composite sketch based on a psychic's vision of their daughter's killer.
"Have you seen this man? This man may have been in the Boulder area in December 1996," reads a statement under the sketch at
www.ramseyfamily.com.
The drawing shows a man with high cheekbones, tight lips and a receding hairline.
"We firmly believe that this most horrible of killers will be caught based on information provided by people who care about right and wrong," the Web site says.
"Please help, so another innocent child will not be a victim and another family will not suffer unbearable grief."
Their 6-year-old daughter, JonBeneÚt, was found beaten and strangled in the basement of her parents' Boulder home Dec. 26, 1996.
On Saturday, Boulder police chief Mark Beckner declined to comment on the composite sketch.
Psychic Dorothy Allison reportedly came up with her vision of a suspect in the Ramsey murder during a television appearance about two years ago.
For decades, she had offered her services to police departments around the country. Allison, who lived in New Jersey, died in December. She was 74.
In early 1992, Allison was contacted to assist in the search for Heather Dawn Church, a 13year-old who had been abducted from her home in Black Forest, near Colorado Springs, and murdered.
Even before Church's body was found, Allison called in with information that later proved to be accurate about the suspect who eventually was charged with the girl's murder, according to police investigators. But they said Allison's information was not used during the investigation.
"In 30 years, I've never had accurate information from a psychic," a veteran law enforcement officer told The Denver Post in 1995. "But the information by Dorothy Allison was right on the money." Neither the Ramseys nor their publicists could be reached for comment. Ironically, lawyers for the couple criticized former Boulder police detective Linda Arndt last year for substituting her "psychic impressions" for solid evidence during an appearance on a network television show, after Arndt had left the police force.
Arndt was the first Boulder detective at the Ramsey house on Dec. 26, 1996.
That day, Arndt told John Ramsey and a family friend to search the house. In her television interview last September, Arndt said when she saw Ramsey carrying the body of his daughter up from the basement, "my mind exploded . . . I saw black with thousands of lights and everything I noted that morning that stuck out instantly made sense."
Attorneys for the Ramseys reacted quickly to Arndt's comments. "Her psychic impressions and "thousands of lights' are no substitute for evidence and do nothing to advance the search for JonBeneÚt Ramsey's killer," they said.
