25 years after JonBenet Ramsey was found dead in the basement of her family home, police say DNA hasn't been ruled out to help solve the case. 9News

Twenty-five years after JonBenet Ramsey was killed, police say DNA hasn't been ruled out to help solve the case.

In recent years, investigators have identified suspects in unsolved cases by comparing DNA profiles from crime scenes and to DNA testing results shared online by people researching their family trees,In Oregon earlier this year, a man was accused of killing two people who disappeared 20 years apart after forensic genealogy linked him to the 1999 disappearance and presumed death of one of them.It's unclear if this is the method investigators plan to apply to the JonBenet case.

Investigators have analysed nearly 1,000 DNA samples during the course of the Ramsey investigation, police said in the statement, along with receiving, reviewing or investigating more than 21,016 tips, letters and emails. Tests in 2008 on newly discovered DNA on JonBenet's clothing pointed to the involvement of an "unexplained third party" in her slaying, and not her parents, John and Patsy Ramsey, or their son, Burke.
