Geraldo Rivera’s Apology to JonBenét Ramsey’s Father: A Reflection on Past Mistakes
Geraldo Rivera recently issued a heartfelt apology to John Ramsey, the father of JonBenét Ramsey, a young girl whose tragic murder in the late ’90s remains unsolved. The apology came during Tuesday’s episode of “CUOMO,” where Rivera expressed deep regret for staging a mock murder trial on his show, which had caused further pain to the grieving Ramsey family.
In his apology, Rivera acknowledged the suffering endured by the Ramseys and expressed his remorse for contributing to their pain. While he defended the concept of holding mock trials and his reporting in general, Rivera emphasized that his intention was never to add to the anguish of a grieving family.

John Ramsey, in a gracious gesture, accepted Rivera’s apology and shared his frustrations with the police investigation into his daughter’s murder. He believes that the case could have been solved long ago and continues to advocate for further DNA testing on evidence to seek justice for JonBenét.
