BOULDER, Colorado (CNN) -- Prosecutors have agreed to release most of
the search warrant information in the JonBenet Ramsey murder case, but
want to keep some portions secret to protect the investigation and
reputations of people named in the documents.
An edited version of the warrants has been submitted to the Boulder
District Court. A court-ordered seal on the four Ramsey home search
warrants is set to expire Saturday. District Judge Diane McDonald will
rule Monday on the prosecution motion to keep portions secret.
JonBenet, 6, was found strangled and beaten in her family's basement
on December 26, nearly eight hours after her mother reported finding a
ransom note demanding $118,000 for the girl's safe return.
