Michael Clark, facing a retrial for a 1994 murder, seeks to link his case to the infamous 1996 JonBenét Ramsey investigation, citing alleged mistakes by Boulder police.
Clark's defense team has filed 12 subpoenas to Boulder authorities, seeking documents and information connected to his case, ahead of his scheduled 2026 retrial for the killing of Marty Grisham.
Clark was convicted in 2012 and sentenced to life without parole, but has maintained his innocence for over 30 years. The case was initially unsolved for 17 years, until it was reopened based on DNA analysis and testimony from forensic scientist Yvonne Woods, whose credibility has since been discredited.
Clark's defense seeks to highlight alleged missteps by Boulder police in both his case and the JonBenét Ramsey investigation.
The unusual claim aims to raise questions about the reliability of the evidence against Clark and potentially undermine the prosecution's case.
