Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show, your home for open, honest, and provocative conversations.

Hey everyone on Megan Kelly, welcome to the Megan Kelly Show.

Today on the program we are speaking with John Ramsey, the father of little John Bene Ramsey.

John Bene's murder remains one of the most covered stories of the 20th and 21st centuries,

yet despite decades of intense media attention, police investigations, and over 20,000 tips in this case,

we still don't know the person or person's responsible for her death.

But there are several new developments in the case, and John is here to walk us through what they are

and whether he believes they could lead to finding his daughter's killer after all these years.

First a reminder of how this story began. It was Christmas night, 1996, Boulder, Colorado.

The Ramsey home was decorated with holiday wreaths tied with bows.

John and his now late wife, Patsy Ramsey, had put six-year-old John Bene to bed after returning home

from a Christmas dinner with friends.

When Patsy woke up early the next morning and went downstairs, she found a ransom note at the bottom of the steps.

At red in part, we have your daughter in our possession.

Patsy ran to John Bene's room, she would later tell authorities, but she was nowhere to be found.

Patsy called 911. Her voice was hysterical, begging for police to come as soon as possible.

At the end of the call you can hear, Patsy, praying and pleading, help me, Jesus. Help me.

There's a ransom note here at the ransom note. It says, it'll pay to you, say, victory.

Please, okay, what's your name? Are you actually in there in the mother? Oh my God!

Please, I'm okay, I'm sending a not-so-some, okay? Do you know how long she's been gone?

Oh my God! Please, we just got out of here, you're right here. Oh my God, please.

Okay, I am hunting. Take the big bread, put it up here.
