Karr Won't Be Charged In JonBenet Case
CBS ^ | 8/28/2006 | Rick Sallenger

Posted on 08/28/2006 1:09:51 PM PDT by Neville72

(CBS4) BOULDER, Colo. A CBS4 source close to the JonBenet Ramsey investigation has confirmed that the DNA of John Mark Karr doesn't match that of the foreign DNA found on JonBenet Ramsey's body when she was killed.

There will be no charges filed against Karr, CBS4's Rick Sallinger reports.

It wasn't immediately clear whether Karr would be released by authorities later on Monday.

Karr was given a mouth-swab DNA test while he was in Thailand, a law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the ongoing investigation has told The Associated Press. The results of that test were not known.

Boulder County District Attorney's Office spokeswoman Carolyn French said Saturday that professional conduct rules and a judge's gag order prohibited her office from commenting on evidence.

JonBenet was found strangled with a skull fracture. Authorities once said her parents were under "an umbrella of suspicion," but prosecutors never charged anyone in the case.

He better not be released, he was a fugitive anyway.

Well, I'm not normally a big fan of "making false statements to police" charges but in this case it seems like a good idea.

Looks like he tricked the city of Boulder to pay for free airfare back to the US.

He must know the killer because from what I understand he knows details about he case that have never been released to the public.

It's sad but the mystery continues. This creep is a sicko and needs to be boxed up. Not sure what will happen now but his charges in California are still there. Bend over boy.

So, why did he say he was with JonBenet when she died, and that her death "was an accident"? Maybe he was in cahoots with another pervert, yet to be named! The plot thickens!!!
