No. He seems like a loon who made a false confession. |

I'm not gonna post an article because by now we all know about it, but what do you all think about this case? I really don't know. I'm leaning towards him being a loon who made a false confession, but what do you all think?

I believe the police said that he knew details about the condition of the body that weren't made available to the public.

From what I do know (which probably isn't truly enough to draw a conclusion) I am leaning towards he is guilty. Hopefully more information will be released sometime soon though.

JonBenet Slay Suspect Waives Extradition Rights; Bound for Boulder
So the JonBenet Ramsey suspect will soon be in my state and 45 minutes away from me. I'm so excited! (Not really.)

JonBenet Murder Suspect's Relatives Offer Book, Movie Rights to Agent
Heh.
One thing I noticed of great intrigue in the novel right now is this:
Quote: | On Wednesday, Quientana Ray, who married Karr when she was 13, told ABC's "Good Morning America" in a pre-recorded interview that Karr was controlling and used to tell her about fantasies he had about little girls.
"I was drugged and things were done to me without me having any idea," said Ray, who is now married with a 4-month old child.
Her parents, Melissa and Larry Shotts of Hamilton, Ala., said they also discovered letters Karr wrote to their daughter that were signed "S.B.T.C." � the same initials found on a ransom note left in the Ramseys' home. They did not show the letters during the interview and it wasn't clear if they still had them.
In addition to first-degree murder, the counts against Karr in a sealed probable-cause arrest warrant include felony murder, first-degree kidnapping, second-degree kidnapping and sexual assault on a child. |
If that's true, then I'm inclined to believe Karr guilty.

The charges were dropped? Why? Did he not actually do it after all? I know there's no satue of limiations on Murder, so that wasn't it.

The DNA found on Ramsey's body didn't match his.

I've been hearing lots of stuff that it wasn't all about the DNA. I guess those analysts were wrong.

The only thing CNN mentions is the lack of DNA evidence.

Oh, no, I know about that, that the judge decided that it hindered on DNA, but leading up to today's events people were saying that it didn't hinder on it, and I happen to, personally, still subscribe to that idea. It's entirely true that DNA's the reason why he wasn't charged.

This just in on the Fox News Breaking News bar: John Mark Karr Held in Jail Pending Charges in California. Thank God. I wonder what this is about?

Little interesting tid-bits related to this story I wanted to share with you all.
First of all, we drove through Boulder today on our way to Rocky Mountain National Park. Fine time at the Park.
Secondly, my dad said that last week when he went to Boulder to meet representatives of GE Access, the company he was meeting with (GE Access, as I said) was started by John Ramsey and bought out by GE.
Just a little info worth sharing

I still think the parents are at fault. They paraded their daughter around at events known to be loaded with sexual predators. The may not have committed the act of murder, but they made it inevitable. There is blood on their hands.
