BOULDER, Colorado (CNN) -- A
grand jury is to be seated on
Wednesday to sort through evidence in
the still unresolved case of 6-year-old
JonBenet Ramsey, the child beauty
queen who was found dead in the
basement of her parent's home on
December 26, 1996. 

The grand jury procedure was requested last month by Boulder
District Attorney Alex Hunter, and lead investigator Mark Beckner
said the panel was needed to complete the police investigation. 

Hunter has requested a formal written and oral presentation of the
Ramsey case from the Boulder police department. Despite 16
months of investigation, there have been no arrests. 

John and Patricia Ramsey, once described as "a focus of the
investigation," strongly deny any involvement in the death of their
daughter. They refused to be interviewed by police for four months
and now decline a second interview. Police also have never been
able to interview JonBenet Ramsey's brother, Burke. 

The grand jury can summon witnesses who will then be required to
answer all questions -- except in those cases where there is a
constitutional right not to do so.
