Boulder Police have given up on Jonbenet murder
Nov 29th
Boulder December 1, 2025 Jonbenet murder case deader than she is Even though this cold case is 28 years old and even though Boulder PD put out a statement a month ago the police have totally given up. There was a cold case review that the D.A led. That went nowhere.
John Ramsey met with the police this year. They didn’t arrest him even though all the evidence and a Grand Jury indictment points to him. 
In fact the police fired lead detective Ron Gosage and replaced him with a new team of rookie detectives who know zero about the case. They made Gosage an assistant chief to keep him happy.

But talk to any long time Boulder detective involved with the case and they will tell you that the Ramseys did it. Commander Eller who first led the investigation and quit over a no arrest wanted the Ramseys arrested on day 1. Detective Steve Thomas confronted Patsey Ramsey on Larry King Live. He wanted to arrest her that night on set of the show. Thomas wrote a book about the case Detective Gossage saw all the signals that let to RDI. 
Police Chief Mark Beckner was the lead detective in the Ramsey case. Probably the smartest cop on the case laid out RDI in the Redditt AMA
The Ramseys to this day absolutely insist they had nothing to do with JonBenet’s murder . John Ramsey regular appears on TV shows, murder festivals and he’s sued everybody under the sun who accuse him or his family. Settlements have been in the millions of dollars. And we certainly are not accusing him here. The case continues to swirl on murder sites of the web. This one reviews the case daily on Redditt
There’s so much more we can write, but like the Sand Creek Massacre, this unsolved murder case leaves a blight on Boulder every Christmas day..
Boulder will not appeal recent airport ruling

City will continue to prioritize safe airport operations as court appeal deadline passes
BOULDER, Colo. – The City of Boulder has made a decision not to appeal a recent court ruling in a case it filed last fall related to the Boulder Municipal Airport. The deadline for this decision was today, Friday, Nov. 14.
Last year, the city challenged the federal government’s position that a 1991 grant of $5,800 obligates the city to operate the Boulder Municipal Airport forever. The United States District Court granted the federal government’s motion to dismiss the lawsuit, finding that a determination about the city’s obligation was premature. The court dismissed the case without prejudice.
After evaluating the ruling, the city has decided not to file an appeal. The city’s policy question around land use remains on hold at this time.
As there was no judicial answer to the city’s question of whether the United States can obligate the city to run the airport in perpetuity, the city continues to maintain that it is only obligated to operate the airport until May 2040, when the 20-year duration of its most recent federal grant will expire.
In the meantime, the city will continue to prioritize funding critical safety measures, such as pavement remediation, to operate the airport in compliance with all federal requirements. The 
city is exploring options to support aging infrastructure needs, as well as innovations such as exploring unleaded fuel options, with the airport fund and alternative grants that do not require city obligations for an extended time into the future.
Boulder Municipal Airport is a general aviation airport, providing business, private and recreational aviation services to the city and surrounding communities. Learn more on the airport webpage.
Dan Caruso drops hammer on Boulders housing policies, Cities failure to address crime.

Dan Caruso drops hammer on Boulders housing policies, Cities failure to address crime. In Boulder Caruso said today: ” Since 2020, serious crimes—“crimes against society” and “crimes against persons”—have risen significantly. Safety is not a side issue; it is the foundation on which everything else depends. ”
Caruso also said in his newsletter: “The City’s strained budget is directly tied to its failure to keep Boulder safe, secure, and clean. Half-empty business parks east of 28th Street and vacant storefronts on Pearl Street are lost opportunities. When good businesses stay away and working families can’t afford to live here, Boulder forfeits not only tax revenue but also the vitality that comes from a strong cluster of local employers.
Boulder’s culture and economy both suffer. Council’s housing policies make matters worse. Instead of enabling new housing for working families, bureaucracy delays projects, adds costs, and drives up prices. The result is a vicious cycle: fewer businesses and residents, more vacancies, declining revenues, and an even weaker ability to maintain safety and services. ” Caruso went on to tell this story cited in local news: “An owner of a 32 year downtown local restaurant echoed this frustration in an email to City Council: Yesterday at 5 PM, I biked through Central Park, past the Farmers Market, and by Penfield Tate/City Council Chambers.
What I encountered was deeply concerning. In addition to the presence of drug add
icts sprawled throughout the park, the area was covered in dirty laundry, feces, vomit, and urine. This is not just a matter of homelessness; it is a matter of neglect and public safety. This is unacceptable, especially considering the recent opening of a $150 million hotel downtown.
Visitors walking past this filth will be deterred from returning. Boulder has the resources and the responsibility to do better. Our parks and public spaces deserve consistent, professional maintenance to ensure safety and dignity for all residents and visitors. “
