DENVER (AP) — Amid renewed interest in the killing of JonBenet Ramsey triggered in part by a new Netflix documentary, police in Boulder, Colorado, refuted assertions this week that there is viable evidence and leads about the 1996 killing of the 6-year-old girl that they are not pursuing. JonBenet Ramsey, who competed in beauty pageants, was found dead in the basement of her family’s home in the college town of Boulder the day after Christmas in 1996. Her body was found several hours after her mother called 911 to say her daughter was missing and a ransom note had been left behind. The details of the crime and video footage of JonBenet competing in pageants propelled the case into one of the highest-profile mysteries in the United States. The police comments came as part of their annual update on the investigation, a month before the 28th anniversary of JonBenet’s killing. Police said they released it a little earlier due to the increased attention on the case, apparently referring to the three-part Netflix series “Cold Case: Who Killed JonBenet Ramsey.” In a video statement, Boulder Police Chief Steve Redfearn said the department welcomes news coverage and documentaries about the killing of JonBenet, who would have been 34 this year, as a way to generate possible new leads. He said the department is committed to solving the case but needs to be careful about what it shares about the investigation to protect a possible future prosecution. “What I can tell you though, is we have thoroughly investigated multiple people as suspects throughout the years and we continue to be open-minded about what occurred as we investigate the tips that come into detectives," he said. The Netflix documentary focuses on the mistakes made by police and the “media circus” surrounding the case. JonBenet was bludgeoned and strangled. Her death was ruled a homicide, but nobody was ever prosecuted. Police were widely criticized for mishandling the early investigation into her death amid speculation that her family was responsible. However, a prosecutor cleared her parents, John and Patsy Ramsey, and brother Burke in 2008 based on new DNA evidence from JonBenet's clothing that pointed to the involvement of an “unexplained third party” in her slaying. The announcement by former district attorney Mary Lacy came two years after Patsy Ramsey died of cancer. Lacy called the Ramseys “victims of this crime.” John Ramsey has continued to speak out for the case to be solved. In 2022, he supported an online petition asking Colorado’s governor to intervene in the investigation by putting an outside agency in charge of DNA testing in the case. In the Netflix documentary, he said he has been advocating for several items that have not been prepared for DNA testing to be tested and for other items to be retested. He said the results should be put through a genealogy database. 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 2021, police said in their annual update that DNA hadn’t been ruled out to help solve the case, and in 2022 noted that some evidence could be “consumed” if DNA testing is done on it. Last year, police said they convened a panel of outside experts to review the investigation to give recommendations and determine if updated technologies or forensic testing might produce new leads. In the latest update, Redfearn said that review had ended but that police continue to work through and evaluate a “lengthy list of recommendations” from the panel.

An intense bombing campaign by Israel has killed more than 3,700 people, many of them civilians, Lebanese officials say. But while the deal, set to take effect early Wednesday, could significantly calm the tensions that have inflamed the region, it does little directly to resolve the much deadlier war that has raged in Gaza since the Hamas attack on southern Israel in October 2023 that killed 1,200 people. Hezbollah, which began firing scores of rockets into Israel the following day in support of Hamas, has previously said it would keep fighting until there was a stop to the fighting in Gaza. Here’s what to know about the tentative ceasefire agreement and its potential implications: – The terms of the deal The agreement reportedly calls for a 60-day halt in fighting that would see Israeli troops retreat to their side of the border while requiring Hezbollah to end its armed presence in a broad swathe of southern Lebanon. Us President Joe Biden said on Tuesday that the deal is set to take effect at 4am local time on Wednesday. Under the deal, thousands of Lebanese troops and UN peacekeepers are to deploy to the region south of the Litani River. An international panel lead by the US would monitor compliance by all sides. Mr Biden said the deal “was designed to be a permanent cessation of hostilities.” Israel has demanded the right to act should Hezbollah violate its obligations. Lebanese officials have rejected writing that into the proposal. Israel’s defence minister, Israel Katz, insisted on Tuesday that the military would strike Hezbollah if the UN peacekeeping force, known as Unifil, does not provide “effective enforcement” of the deal. – Lingering uncertainty A Hezbollah leader said the group’s support for the deal hinged on clarity that Israel would not renew its attacks. “After reviewing the agreement signed by the enemy government, we will see if there is a match between what we stated and what was agreed upon by the Lebanese officials,” Mahmoud Qamati, deputy chair of Hezbollah’s political council, told the Qatari satellite news network Al Jazeera. “We want an end to the aggression, of course, but not at the expense of the sovereignty of the state” of Lebanon, he said. The European Union’s top diplomat, Josep Borrell, said on Tuesday that Israel’s security concerns had been addressed in the deal also brokered by France. – Where the fighting has left both sides After months of cross-border bombings, Israel can claim major victories, including the killing of Hezbollah’s top leader, Hassan Nasrallah, most of his senior commanders and the destruction of extensive militant infrastructure. A complex attack in September involving the explosion of hundreds of walkie-talkies and pagers used by Hezbollah was widely attributed to Israel, signalling a remarkable penetration of the militant group. The damage inflicted on Hezbollah has come not only in its ranks, but to the reputation it built by fighting Israel to a stalemate in the 2006 war. Still, its fighters managed to put up heavy resistance on the ground, slowing Israel’s advance while continuing to fire scores of rockets, missiles and drones across the border each day. The ceasefire offers relief to both sides, giving Israel’s overstretched army a break and allowing Hezbollah leaders to tout the group’s effectiveness in holding their ground despite Israel’s massive advantage in weaponry. But the group is likely to face a reckoning, with many Lebanese accusing it of tying their country’s fate to Gaza’s at the service of key ally Iran, inflicting great damage on a Lebanese economy that was already in a grave condition. – No answers for Gaza Until now, Hezbollah has insisted that it would only halt its attacks on Israel when it agreed to stop fighting in Gaza. Some in the region are likely to view a deal between the Lebanon-based group and Israel as a capitulation. In Gaza, where officials say the war has killed more than 44,000 Palestinians, Israel’s attacks have inflicted a heavy toll on Hamas, including the killing of the group’s top leaders. But Hamas fighters continue to hold scores of Israeli hostages, giving the militant group a bargaining chip if indirect ceasefire negotiations resume. Hamas is likely to continue to demand a lasting truce and a full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza in any such deal. Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas offered a pointed reminder on Tuesday of the intractability of the war, demanding urgent international intervention. “The only way to halt the dangerous escalation we are witnessing in the region, and maintain regional and international stability, security and peace, is to resolve the question of Palestine,” he said in a speech to the UN read by his ambassador.

As the lawsuit unfolds, both , with Jay-Z accusing attorney Tony Buzbee of attempting to blackmail him. He stated, " " Meanwhile, Combs' legal team has labeled the allegations a " ."Franz Wagner has never been the main star. In his two years at Michigan, he didn’t lead the Wolverines in scoring and as a sophomore played alongside All-American center Hunter Dickinson. Coming out of the NBA draft, he was perhaps overshadowed by other more well-known prospects at the time. Even when Orlando drafted him No. 8 overall in 2021, there was Jalen Suggs, whom the Magic selected three spots sooner. A year later came No. 1 pick Paolo Banchero , who instantly became the face of a franchise that had been searching for one in the years since the departure of Dwight Howard. But Wagner likes it that way. He doesn’t mind playing second fiddle to the Rookie of the Year and first-time All-Star in Banchero. “I knew I wasn’t going to have the same notoriety as some of the top draft picks,” Wagner said. “It’s just the way it goes when you’re from a different country. “I really don’t have a problem with that at all,” he added. But Thursday night in Los Angeles, and for the last three weeks without Banchero (torn right abdominal muscle), Wagner showed he too can shine just as bright as his higher-drafted teammates and perhaps anyone else in the league. In a town known for its stars, Wagner was the biggest when he sank a game-winning 3-point basket with 3.1 seconds left to hand the Lakers their first home loss of the season while snapping a Los Angeles 6-game win streak despite 39 points from Anthony Davis and 31 from LeBron James. “That’s crazy. That’s like a movie moment,” Suggs said. With 37 points and 11 assists, the 23-year-old Wagner became the youngest player in Magic history to record 35-plus points and 10-plus assists in a game and just the third player in franchise history to record such a statline, joining Penny Hardaway and Tracy McGrady. Fittingly, it was McGrady (37 points, 10 assists) who did it last for the Magic on March 15, 2004, on the road against the... Lakers. When McGrady did it, however, Orlando lost in overtime to a young Kobe Bryant, who totaled 38 points that night. Led by Wagner this time, the road victory for the Magic (10-7) was just the franchise’s eighth all-time in 35 games away from home against the Lakers (10-5) in the regular season. “He’s not afraid of big moments,” coach Jamahl Mosley said. “And that’s what we’ve asked him to do. I could not be happier for this team and for him, who puts in such an amazing amount of work. To see that fall ... this group, they battle. They battled this entire game. “I just can’t say enough about this group, can’t say enough about Franz and his work ethic, and this group’s grit that they continue to show,” he added. Franz Wagner lifts Magic past Lakers with game-winner, 37 points Wagner could get some help back Saturday against the Pistons (7-10) when Orlando returns to Kia Center after going 2-1 out West. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, who missed Thursday’s game due to personal reasons (the birth of his family’s fifth child), isn’t listed on the injury report. Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (left foot plantar fasciitis) is listed as questionable after missing 10 consecutive contests. Regardless of who’s available, the Magic’s offense will run through Wagner once again. Although it was his final shot that rightfully deserves the attention, his 37-point performance is just the latest example of why he’s earning himself a spot in the league’s All-Star game come February. Orlando has gone 7-1 in its last eight games while Wagner has averaged 28.1 points, 6.9 assists, 6.0 rebounds and 2.1 steals in that stretch. Banchero took to Instagram to back his star counterpart, writing, “West Coast Walk Down! ALL STAR.” “This is one of those games where when we are done, 10 to 15 years later, we can hold onto this and talk about,” Suggs said. Wagner relied on his craftiness to drive in the paint and found his spots from distance to attack despite the Lakers’ best effort to contain him. When Los Angeles threw double teams or blitzed him, Wagner found open teammates such as Suggs (23 points) on the perimeter for a first-quarter 3 or a soaring Goga Bitadze (7 points, 15 rebounds) for a third-quarter alley-oop. Wagner quietly recorded his career-high 11 assists on a night where it was his scoring and, more importantly, his final shot that made the most noise. But he’s not one to make much noise like that. Never has been. And he revels in the calmness waiting to strike. Generally soft-spoken with the media, he instead lets his play speak for itself. “That’s not why I play basketball,” Wagner said of the individual attention. “Those moments, like when my teammates are super happy for me, those types of things — that’s what every player wishes for, and not all of the fame.” Jason Beede can be reached at jbeede@orlandosentinel.com Up next ...

FBI Director Wray says he intends to resign at the end of Biden's term in JanuaryDonna T. from Bismarck, North Dakota, writes: “When the variety of fresh veggies is limited, I buy frozen. I do, however, like to keep store-purchased canned veggies in my pantry and use them in tight squeezes. I am confused by statements that canned veggies are highly nutritious and comparable to frozen. Comparing nutrition labels does not seem to support this statement. I would so appreciate your input.” Fresh veggies certainly are best if available — and if they don’t lose precious nutrients by overcooking or languishing too long in the fridge. But don’t feel bad about using frozen and canned varieties, too. They are picked at the peak of ripeness and generally processed right away, which helps maintain nutrients. In fact, the current 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans encourage us to eat a variety of vegetables including “fresh, frozen and canned.” While frozen and canned veggies both have their place, some facts about canned goods may surprise you. For one, they may literally save your life in an emergency when refrigerated food is not available. What about sodium? According to the Canned Food Alliance (mealtime.org), salt or sodium is not used to preserve canned food. That’s done with heat and cooling. So it’s OK to look for lower-sodium versions if needed. Or you can simply drain and rinse beans and other canned vegetables to get rid of 40% or more of the added sodium. Interestingly, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the major sources of sodium in our food are pizza, cold cuts, cured meat, bread, rolls, burgers and sandwiches. Canned food is not even in the top 10. What about nutrients and other beneficial substances? Some, such as lycopene (the healthful red pigment in tomatoes) and beta carotene (which converts to vitamin A in the body), are actually enhanced in heat-processed canned vegetables. Vitamin C is another story. It is the least stable of all vitamins and is easily destroyed by heat and exposure to air. However, according to a 2021 review in the journal Antioxidants, new technologies can now preserve the vitamin C content in many canned foods. I have a can of 100% vegetable juice in my cupboard, and it contains more vitamin C than a medium orange. “The general conclusion of this review,” say these authors, “was that while canned foods are often perceived as less nutritious than fresh or frozen products, the research reveals that this is not always true.” Susan C. from Lynchburg, Virginia, responded to a recent column about feeding picky grandkids: “You said you always want to throw in a vegetable and that you saw a tomato on your counter. I was always told that a tomato is really a fruit. Isn’t that true?” It is true. Tomatoes are biologically fruits but nutritionally vegetables. In fact, tomatoes were officially classified as vegetables by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1893. It’s a great trivia question for grandkids. Barbara Intermill is a registered dietitian.
