A Colorado judge has ordered the release of the 1999 grand jury indictment in the killing of 6-year-old JonBenet Ramsey.
The order was issued Wednesday by Senior District Court Judge J. Robert Lowenbach. He ruled that the indictment signed by the grand jury foreman constituted an official action and must be released under state law.
The Daily Camera reports the indictment will be released Friday in response to a lawsuit filed by a Daily Camera reporter and the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press.
The indictment has remained sealed for 14 years because the former district attorney decided against pursuing charges. But questions still surround the little girl's unsolved death.
John Ramsey, father of JonBenet, said earlier this week he was opposed to the release of an indictment that wasn't prosecuted.

After all of this time, I'm anxious to read the document and find out what info/evidence against the Ramseys caused the grand jury to indict them.
