Resolving for the Murder of a Child Beauty Queen and a Botched InvestigationThe killing of six-year-old beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey - found in the basement of her family home in Boulder, Colorado, with a smashed skull and a garrote placed around her neck - remains one of America' s most shameful unsolved crimes. A flawed investigation, fraught with police and prosecutorial misconduct and widespread evidence tampering, means that the little girl' s killer remains at large after more than two decades. Now, as told in Killing JonBenet Ramsey an unflinching new investigation into the crime will seek to finally secure justice for JonBenet. Investigative journalist Dylan Howard has assembled a crack team of internationally renowned criminal investigators, experts, and lawyers with the express aim of finding her killer. They have sifted through scores of new tips and leads, pored over never-before-seen crime scene evidence, searched through hundreds of pages of coroners' reports, police statements, and private journals, and conducted many exclusive new interviews. They have petitioned courts and law enforcement agencies, gathered archival material, and utilized new scientific advances. This is not a retelling of JonBenet' s story - it is an active investigation of her murder.

As a former detective, I know firsthand the skills that make an exceptional investigator and Dylan has them in spades.

" - Los Angeles Press Club
As a man with unprecedented access to the facts and a reporter who is one of the most feared journalists in Hollywood, investigative reporter Dylan Howard has cracked open scandals that have brought down the careers of Mel Gibson, Charlie Sheen, Hulk Hogan, and Paula Dean and others. Howard' s sense for news saw him rise to become the undisputed most powerful gossip editor in the world-publishing dozens of salacious tabloid magazines each week, including Us Weekly, The National Enquirer, Star, In Touch, Life & Style, RadarOnline. com, and more. Described by TheNew Yorker magazine' s Jeffrey Toobin as "a tabloid prodigy" and AdWeek as "the king of Hollywood scoops," Dylan also brought to light the hate-fueled audiotapes of Oscar-winning actor/director Gibson blasting former girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva; the scandal-plagued death of screen darling Farrah Fawcett; the naming of the mother of Arnold Schwarzenegger' s love child; the demise of star-on-the-rise politician Anthony Weiner; and the Tiger Woods sex scandal. He also broke the story of the A-list high-stakes poker scam that was later made into the Oscar-nominated film Molly' s Game. Most recently, Howard made a name for himself with a stunning expose of Sheen that revealed Hollywood' s most unapologetic hedonist was HIV positive. It also was a story of extraordinary corruption, violence, lies, intimidation, death threats, and millions of dollars paid out in hush money-a story that he chronicled in a first-person essay for The Hollywood Reporter that AdWeek called "jaw dropping. " In 2011, Howard was named Entertainment Journalist of the Year at the National Entertainment Journalism Awards, where the judges labelled him the "go-to guy for authoritative showbiz news and analysis on cable and over-the air television. " Howard lives in New York City.
