Lesley Stahl kicks off her new role tonight as anchor of '48 Hours' with a fresh look at the Jon Benet Ramsey case.

She has the first interview with Patsy Ramsey since the latter was diagnosed with a recurrence of ovarian cancer..

Shows never before seen tapes of police interrogations..

Boasts an exclusive with Lou Smit, one of the original investigators of the Boulder, Colorado case.. (he thinks the Ramseys are innocent)

And there is new evidence, including fiber presence linked to one of the parents.

The local police department offers its relevations and private views of the Ramseys as potential suspects.

Is the case still 'Hot' in terms of an investigative standpoint?

[b4its2late]

Interesting development, but time will tell, I hope.

[mhking]

It's about damn time!

[Space Wrangler]

Well, if the local police dept. is offering it's relevations, I don't hold out too much hope for them breaking the case ;>))

I always had a gut feeling that this was some kind of an accident and then Mom and Dad covered it up.

The hangup 'trial' 911 call at 5AM and the note with the amount being the dad's annual salary were too suspicious.

I bet its nothing, they'll put the hype out there to try and lure in new viewers.

If they had anything real there'd be a press conference and charges brought.

What exactly is 'fiber presence'?

If they are referring to clothing, I don't see how the police could get any correct information about 'fibers' since it took them over eight months to ask the Ramsey's for the clothes they wore that night.

Can you tell me what clothes you were wearing at the end of last year? Do you still have them? Have they been washed or dry cleaned?

OJ DID IT!!!

One of the book authors was on with Geraldo and said there was a stun gun with enough voltage to kill a young child out in the open the night of Jon Benet's death.

My guess is that both sister and brother snuck up late playing around with the weapon and an accident happened.

Then Mom and Dad Ramsey, fearing the charges of neglect and/or jail time covered the scene up

South Park recently revealed the real killers.

[RAT Patrol]

I do not believe the parents did it. Period. And as for "fiber evidence," she was seven (or six?) and they were her parents. Of course there is fiber "evidence."

I don't know why the liberals hate the Ramsey's so much. Are they political conservatives or something?

[tip of the sword]

Perhaps they are describing Patsy's clothes fibers found at the body scene/wine cellar..where she said she never goes and where Jon Benet's body was found!

[RAT Patrol]

I bet its nothing, they'll put the hype out there to try and lure in new viewers. If they had anything real there'd be a press conference and charges brought. Bingo! Good work, Sherlock. I couldn't agree more and it's SHAMEFUL. I hope they get horrible ratings.

[ravingnutter]

I always thought the brother did it and mom/dad are covering for him.

[tip of the sword]

I don't hate the Ramseys we just don't really know what happened the night of the murder.

And Patsy said she had never been down in the wine cellar where the body was found..

[RAT Patrol]

Oh, I know. You just want justice for JonBennet. So do I. I never thought those parents did it. They don't look guilty. If they did it I hope they pay but I'll be SHOCKECD if they did and I have always wondered why the media was gunning for them. Maybe ratings is the simple answer.

in other news...CBS reports the sky is blue, most birds fly, and bears poop in the woods.

[goodieD]

No, but you're close... it was actually Gary Condit.

[i_dont_chat]

I have always thought that brother Burke did it. An accident of some sort, involving a stun gun and choking to keep sister from screaming out and waking their parents.

And the parents did what they could to protect Burke, being as they couldn't bring back their daughter. My intuition, from Day One.

Bad decision, on their part. Better to face the music than heap all of this suspicion and distrust upon themselves -- and for what purpose?

It could backfire and have a terrible effect on Burke in the long run. Yes, time will tell.

[tip of the sword]

Yeah, I think See-BS does have issues with the Ramseys i.e. (rich, white privileged parents, child beauty pageants etc.) but I still want to see the new evidence
