MICHAEL HELGOTH & JOHN STEVEN GIGAX & JOHN KENADY

- Michael Helgoth was the owner of a junkyard in Boulder. He had been involved in a minor property dispute with John Ramsey. His junkyard was in the process of being condemned for pollution.
- Helgoth owned a stun gun and a pair of booths consistent with an unidentified boot print found at the scene of JBR's murder.
- Helgoth committed suicide one day after DA Alex Hunter publicly announced they were narrowing in on a suspect.
- There is suspicion that Helgoth's death was a murder staged as a suicide. He was shot in the head through a pillow (can be done to reduce to noise of a gunshot, extremely unusual in a suicide). As well his stun gun, which he normally kept in a locked cabinet, was found beside him.
- A documentary insinuates that Helgoth committed the murder with an accomplice, John Steven Gigax, who then killed Helgoth.
- Gigax has a conviction for child sex crimes and other violent offences, however, he was later proven to be in Indiana on the night of JonBenet's murder.
- John Kenady, another man with a conviction for child sex crimes, is the person who went to the documentary makers accusing Gigax of killing both JonBenet and Helgoth.
- Kenady was convicted of trespassing in Helgoth's home, which he says was to preserve evidence.
