I can hardly wait to see what (mis-)diagnosis he gets!

I could be wrong... but I think one trait of Borderline Personality Disorder is obsessions with famous people and hollywood stars.

That would be pretty creepy having someone write like that to you at only six years old. I don't think a six-year-old could understand love to that level at only that age quite yet anyways. If that guy actually loved her, why did he strangle her and rape her anyways? There must have been something seriously wrong with him. Anyways, it's creepy indeed.

En Una Isla brought up a good point. Lots of little girls get murdered by horrible people in horrible ways and the media seems to focus only on the white ones.

Sad but true, Lae, sad but true.

This sort of stuff probably happens all the time in many countries. It is only of note because her parents were fairly rich, it was a "normal" town, and she was being paraded and degraded in bloody pageants.

Whoever kill Jon Benet if ever truly found if possible for all the heartache that it still causes today should be shot, hung, and shot again. But in the end will the real murder come forward most likely not unless there is some real breaks in the case.

Well hopefully he is the real killer. What I have learned about from him he sounds like a lifetime pedophile so it makes sense he is the guy.

Those child beauty pageants are dangerous. As GWAR said Jonbenet was a "preschool prostitute".

I bet none of you knew there was a black girl the same age raped and strangled in the stairwell of a chicago housing project the same WEEK of the jon benet murder. But no one gives a crap because she was black and poor.


Well, to be fair, I don't give a crap about JonBenet Ramsey, either. I also didn't care about Elizabeth Smart, or O.J. Simpson, or any of the other crap the national media shoves down our throat to sell newspapers or get ratings.

I just read this now:

He couldn't have done it. Good news/bad news.
I do feel sorry for the father though. After all this time, it's still not over. I'm sure it's only bound to get worse now.

The way I'd been reading the news they were already in the process of extraditing John Mark Karr from Thailand for child sex offenses including making child pornography when he fessed up to killing JB.

And now his legal team are arguing that he shouldn't have been extradited. Thailand is working reasonably hard to get rid of the child sex trade - at least they are quite happy to co-operate if another country like the USA wants to prosecute an alledged paedophile.

The man is going to jail one way or another. It's really hard to believe he's innocent until proven guilty. Irony - here they showed a movie about the JB case, and one of the investigating cop characters looked like JMK. Weird.

And we still don't know who killed the kiddie beauty queen. I guess these child beauty pageants are still happening? I find them really creepy all by themselves.

Unfortunately, it seems that John Karr did not kill JonBenet. His DNA didn't match up with that taken from JonBenet.

My condolences go out to JonBenet's father.

wow the police are idiots but that isn't news. why did they jump on this guy in the first place? don't they know how to do police work? this guy is obviously crazy and a freak and loved the attention. didn't they know that? i mean im no police officer and even i knew that. and why did they have to bring him all the way over here???? couldn't they have ruled him out as a suspect overseas?

The police were after John Mark Karr for alledged paedophilia type offenses - BEFORE his fake confession. They would have brought him back to the USA for trial even if he'd never said anything about JonBenet.

well ok, if thats the case why didn't they bring him in for those charges instead? they acted like He was the killer. and btw those charges in california are misdominer so more than likely he'll just get a slap on the wrist or something. the cops have f****d up this investigation from day one. they are totally incompitant, and don't know how to do there jobs. they could have ruled him out as a suspect overseas, but they jumped the gun. and the media only made it worse. if they were bringing him on charges in california fine, bring him in on those charges. not charges of him of crimes in colorado.

look im not trying to defend this guy or anything and i think hes a complete fa***t but common, the cops should have known that all kinds of wierdos were gonna come out of the woodwork, especially in a high profile case. its very unprofessional and sloppy on there part, i expect the media to be unprofessional not law enforcement.

Hmm I had a completely different read on the whole thing from over here.

We heard nothing about him until he fessed up to killing JonBenet - and then the media went to town because the whole JonBenet pageant thing is so unnatural. It's a wonder they haven't gone after other kids that do those pageants. Hey look - freak show - over here.

But we heard that he fessed up to killing JB AFTER he was picked up in Thailand as part of the Extradition process for some other crime which seemed a lot more serious than misdemeanor.

And because he confessed - that made extraditing him a lot easer for law enforcement so they probably went a long with that, the Thai courts would have rubber stamped the extradition and it would not be in John Mark Karr's interests to face charges in Thailand. The police knew early on that the confession was probably a pile of crap - even before they got the DNA back there was good evidence that he was too far away at the time to have done the murder where it was and he didn't know crucial crime scene details either. It was just convenient for the Thai courts maybe. I don't even know if they did use the confession.

I never heard that crimes related to paedophilia could result in a slap on the wrist. And the media loves this story because everyone finds the details so bizzare and fascinating.
