CNN is waiting for confirmation.

I thought this would never be solved after her mother died a few months ago - I was pretty sure she had a hand in it. If she wasn't involved, I'm sorry that she had to die and people still thought she killed her daughter.

what the heck was this person doing in thailand? did they think if they went there and admitted something, they wouldn't get caught? maybe they moved there a long time ago right after the murder so they wouldn't get in trouble...

he didnt do it, he is a fuckin nut.....he was with the ex wife then....the ex said he was infacuated with the case and the other case of the murdered child....Polly Clase(or something like that?) I think he just wanted them to have closure by confessing.....and it will turn out he didnt do it, especially when they compare DNA.....egg on face for prosecutors....

[Just read the bolded parts and around them]

Report: Karr says Patsy Ramsey read his letters

Quote :

"BANGKOK, Thailand (AP) -- The suspect in the slaying of JonBenet Ramsey said he loved the 6-year-old beauty queen "very much" and is "very sorry for what happened." In an exclusive interview with The Associated Press, John Mark Karr said that he contacted JonBenet's mother, Patsy, before she died of cancer in June to express his remorse for the killing. "I conveyed to her many things, among them that I am so very sorry for what happened to JonBenet," Karr said as U.S. and Thai authorities escorted him from his Bangkok hotel, where he spent over an hour packing his belongings. Karr said it was his understanding that Patsy Ramsey read letters that he sent to her. He said JonBenet's death was "an accident." "It's very important for me that everyone knows that I love her very much and that her death was unintentional," said Karr, who sweated and stuttered occasionally as he spoke in a quiet voice. Karr, 41, was arrested Wednesday,far from Boulder, Colorado, where JonBenet's body was found beaten and strangled in her parent's basement on December 26, 1996. He declined to disclose the nature of his supposed relationship to the Ramsey family or how he may have known JonBenet. Asked for details of how she died, Karr replied: "It would take several hours to describe -- to describe that." "There's no way I could be brief about it. It's a very involved series of events," said Karr, who speaks with a Southern accent. "It's very painful for me to talk about." Earlier in the day, Karr spoke briefly to reporters after a news conference by American and Thai authorities. "I was with JonBenet when she died," he told reporters. Asked if he was innocent, he said: "No." Karr will be taken within the week to Colorado, where he will face charges of first-degree murder, kidnapping and child sexual assault, said Ann Hurst of the Department of Homeland Security, one of several officials who accompanied the suspect back to his hotel. In the run-up to Karr's arrest, U.S. authorities had rented rooms at The Blooms, the budget hotel where Karr was staying in a central Bangkok neighborhood of massage parlors and travel agencies catering to expatriates and sex tourists. The hotel offers rooms for as little as three hours -- for $8 -- and monthly stays starting at $170. Karr was staying on the top floor of the nine-story hotel in a small single room. U.S. and Thai authorities wearing plastic gloves sorted through his possessions, which were wheeled away on a luggage rack, and included a laptop computer and two suitcases. Dressed in a baggy turquoise polo shirt and khaki pants, Karr said that JonBenet's death was "not what it seems to be," though he declined to elaborate. "In every way," he added, as authorities bundled him into a waiting vehicle. "It's not at all what it seems to be.""

WHAT SHOULD ONE MAKE OF THIS???

Those bolded statements by him make it sound completely bizarre.

8/17/2006 8:01:26 PM

my guess is he didn't do it, he wants to take credit for it, but hasn't figured out a good story yet

8/17/2006 8:03:59 PM

This sick motherfucker did not kill her. I think he wishes he did though.

8/17/2006 8:10:43 PM

^and^^ here is something that lends to credence to the idea that he didn't do it:

Quote :

"Around 2001, John Karr and his family moved to California. Around that same time, Karr also began doing research for a book he wanted to write about men who commit crimes against girls, Nate Karr said. He believes the research, which included reviewing police and coroner reports about the JonBenet murder, may have been what landed his brother in trouble. "He was trying to get in as in-depth as he could, to not only this case but to other cases as well. It wasn't . . . something that he was like obsessed with the JonBenet Ramsey case. He was researching multiple incidences," Nate Karr said. "That is the only possible way that we think that he could have been brought into this, because, of course, there is going to be no physical evidence. If they do in fact have DNA at the scene, please test him immediately so he can be vindicated." "

I am glad I am not the only person skeptical of nearly automatic self incriminations an entire decade after a high profile crime.

8/18/2006 2:39:37 AM

maybe he was in on it with the parents

or MAYBE he's just that psycho like serial killers and he enjoys toying with the police...ya know, lingering close to the crime cause its his "baby"...he's doing a book b/c HE wants to profit off of sales not some other twit that doesn't really know the inside details and would appreciate his "handy work"

and THAT'S why he was sending the emails tot he professor/journalist who was writing a book on the murder--he wanted to make sure if homeslice was gonna tell the story he would at least tell it RIGHT

or MAYBE i've watched too many crime movies and i need to shut up

case over

his dna didn't match that on the girl's body. charges have been dropped.

but, he is to be brought up on charges of child pornography from 2001 which he evaded at that time by leaving the country.

still, i don't get why he said he did it. some people are saying to get out of potential jailing in thailand, but i don't remember reading anywhere that he was in trouble in thailand.

also, you can see the main story on cnn, bbc, etc, but they don't say one thing: did HE say anything after the dna didn't match, like "got you suckers" or "thanks for the free plane ride", or "i am my own twin, that's why the dna didn't match"*** etc. shouldn't he be charged with making false statements?

*** what IF it really IS that possibility? (see http://abcnews.go.com/Primetime/story?id=2315693 )
