The father of murdered six-year-old beauty queen JonBenét Ramsey claims daughter’s killer was a hired hitman.
RadarOnline.com can reveal John Ramsey, 80, was told the suspect, known under the alias David Cooper, was a professional killer hired by a disgruntled ex-employee of business.
Cooper contacted Ramsey with a series of phone calls over 20 years ago confessing his crime, providing chilling details of the murder of JonBenét, whose body was found in the basement of the family home in Boulder, Colorado, that were never made public.
He even described specific items in the house, including a red model aeroplane on Ramsey’s desk.
However, Ramsey, who featured on Netflix documentary Cold Case: Who Killed JonBenét Ramsey, hit out at bungling cops for failing to properly investigate Cooper’s link.
Ramsey said: “My main objective in talking to him was trying to figure out if he was the killer who was in our house.
“I said ‘is there a model aeroplane on my desk, what color is it? And he said, ‘red’. And I said OK, the colour is red.
“So, I was thinking this guy is legit, and I called the police but they weren’t interested in following up on it.”
Ramsey added Cooper told him he snuck into his home on December 25, 1996, through an unlocked sidedoor and hid in the basement closet until the family went to sleep.
