The convicted pedophile who allegedly confessed to “accidentally” killing 6-year-old JonBenét Ramsey has apparently gone missing in Colorado, according to reports.
Gary Oliva, who for years has claimed he was involved in the 1996 slaying of the child beauty queen but has never been charged, has to check in with Denver Police every month after being released on parole earlier this year on child porn charges.
Police, however, don’t know where he has been staying and consider him a “transient,” TMZ reported.
Colorado Bureau of Investigation records show he hasn’t checked in with cops since February, according to the outlet.
But a police source told DailyMail.com that Oliva did check in this month, as required, but there’s no way of knowing where he has been staying.
“Gary must physically come into the police department every month and sign a document stating that he is a transient and listing the area or shelter where he stays,” the police source said.
“But there is no way to be certain that he spends time or nights at the shelter,” the source added.
“He very well could be lying to us; it’s happened in the past with other sex offenders.”
Residents of the seedy Silver Spur motel — the halfway house in Denver where Oliva was meant to be residing — told the outlet that he hasn’t been seen there in months.
“He was strange even by the standards of the tenants at the motel. He talked to himself a lot,” one resident told the outlet.
“Then one day we all realized he was gone, and we have not seen him since. It’s like he disappeared off the face of the earth.”
Oliva was released from the Arkansas Valley Correction Facility in Ordway, Colo. back in January after eight years behind bars.
He was busted in 2016 with 695 images depicting child pornography, including 335 of or relating to JonBenét.
Oliva claimed in a handful of letters sent to a friend while in prison that he murdered the beauty queen.
“I never loved anyone like I did JonBenét and yet I let her slip and her head bashed in half and I watched her die,” he wrote to his high school friend Michael Vail in 2019.
“It was an accident. Please believe me. She was not like the other kids.”
DNA evidence, however, never linked him to the crime.
JonBenét was found beaten and strangled in the basement of her family’s home in Boulder Dec. 26, 1996.
The Post has reached out to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation but didn’t hear back immediately.
