The convicted pedophile who claims he accidentally killed JonBenét Ramsey has gone “missing” … TMZ has confirmed.
Gary Oliva has said for years … he was in the Ramsey home in December 1996, when “I let her slip and her head bashed in half and I watched her die.” Oliva wrote that to a high school friend in 2019.
When authorities were investigating the case, his name came up and they found hundreds of pictures of JonBenét.
Oliva had also confessed to other killings, but was never charged. He served an 8-year sentence for child pornography. He’s out, but on parole until February 2027.
Denver police tell TMZ … Oliva is required to check in with the P.D. every month … and it’s his responsibility to check in with them. According to records from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, Oliva has not checked in since February 2024.
The Daily Mail has a police source who says Oliva checked up early this month, but State records do not reflect that. DM also reports — he’d been living in a hotel in the Denver area, but has not been seen there in months.
According to public records … Oliva has a history of failing to report as a sex offender.
During a 2019 investigation into JonBenét’s murder, Oliva was already locked up but eliminated as a suspect because his DNA did not match the evidence at the murder scene. But, recently, there have been significant questions about the DNA testing back then.
The timing here is interesting, in the wake of the new Netflix doc, “Cold Case: Who Killed JonBenét Ramsey?” The doc raises the question as to why Oliva has been eliminated as a suspect, because of unreliable DNA evidence.
