JonBenet Ramsey Killer
The biggest irony present in the JonBenet case today is that people are now exonerating John Mark Karr of her murder as quickly as they convicted him when he was arrested.
This speedy "not guilty" verdict is all based on "contradictory statements" that he supposedly made to Thai police when he confessed. The problem with that proposition is that the Thai police are now backing off what they first reported Karr told them.
Two very important points that the Thai police now have told AP that Karr did not confess to: 1.) drugging the girl; or, 2.) that he picked her up from school on what would have been Christmas vacation. The Thai detective now remembers he had seen the Christmas story "fact" in a documentary.
Those two points are the main ones being used by the usual suspect "experts" on cable news, and by pundits throughout media land to exonerate this guy.
Once again rampant speculation is loose among the media, this time exonerating someone who has yet to undergo a professional examination of his confession. Let the DA do her job. She is already being ridiculed and she hasn't even had a chance to question the suspect.
One additional note. Assume Karr is only a stalker of JonBenet and not her killer. If he is proved to be a pedophile, though, do you want the creep out on the street again? I raised that issue in my post on 8/17.
Should we, as a society, really be letting untreatable pedophiles back into neighborhoods to prey again? I think not.
