John Ramsey, father of JonBenét, finds grace in grief in 'The Other Side of Suffering'

It was 16 years ago that the image of a young 6-year-old beauty queen was splashed across just about every supermarket tabloid.

JonBenét Ramsey's murder was a mystery that no one seemed to be able to solve. Her parents John and Patricia would be under an "umbrella of suspicion" for a decade and a half.

It's hard to believe, but today JonBenét would have been 21 years old. Although her family has been cleared of any suspicion, the killer may still be out there.

Ashleigh Banfield sat down with JonBenét's father, John, to talk about his new book, "The Other Side of Suffering." He talks about his remarkable journey back from tragedy and his new outlook on life.
