Michael Clark Murder Defense Seeks to Link Case to JonBenét Investigation 'Mistakes'
Michael Clark, facing a retrial for a 1994 murder, seeks documents that link his case with the infamous 1996 JonBenét Ramsey investigation.
In new legal filings, Clark's defense team claims that alleged Boulder police missteps in his case are similar to those in the JonBenét Ramsey case.
- Clark is facing a second trial for the 1994 murder of Marty Grisham, a crime he has maintained he did not commit for over 30 years.
- He was convicted in 2012 and sentenced to life without parole, but the case was largely based on later DNA analysis and testimony from a now-discredited forensic scientist, Yvonne Woods.
- The case went unsolved for 17 years before being resurrected.
The defense team has filed 12 subpoenas to Boulder authorities seeking documents and information connected to the Clark case in advance of his scheduled 2026 retrial.
