Boulder news are reporting the DNA is a match.

News also reported yesterday that the suspect was in jail in Thailand. That seems to not be true. I'm skeptical on the DNA thing.

I'm not sure I believe that after 10 years and all the new people looking at evidence to reinvestigate the crime and write books and so forth that there were any facts that were truly secret. It could happen, but people don't seem to keep secrets well these days.

Just heard a former FBI profiler suggest that this guy's story doesn't wash.

I can't think of even one case where an FBI profiler turned out to be right.

Not only a prior but he skipped charges in 2001. That was when an arrest warrant was issued.

The just found him. In Tahiland.

Just because they did not do the actual deed does not mean they were not involved. They are pretty sleasy people if you ask me. They treated their daughter like a mini adult which is not normal. They at the very least commited child abuse.

Here is an artist's rendition of the killer - as described by a psychic in the case:

A side by side for ease of comparison:

Pretty close, IMHO...

What is this story that keeps coming up in threads about him writing a term paper in college about this murder? He is 41 (or 42). What was he doing in college at 31? Plus he has been "teaching" (I shudder to think what!)for many years including when she was murdered.

My mistake. But he didn't pick her up at school on Christmas day, either.

Seems mighty quick, though. DNA sent from Thailand, tested, and matched, only after he confessed yesterday morning?

A spokesman from the Boulder Valley School District was on KOA radio yesterday afternoon. He said they had immediately done a search (even using different spellings of the name) to see if this man had ever worked or even substituted in any of their schools. He said they had no record of him at all (much to his and the district's relief!).

The article I read said it never went past putting in a profile.

At some point this piece of garbage developed a long-absent sense of conscience and began to communicate with the network of followers of this mystery and the police are now taking credit for "solving" the crime?

This doesn't absolve the parents of guilt the way I see it; they prostituted that child just as surely as they had undressed her and offered her up as a sacrificial gift to the great god of money and fame.

Shame! Shame on them, both.

he would have had to sneak into the house, and planned it to be a kidnapping. he writes the note first with material he finds in the house, it takes him a long time, even writing a practice note. writing a ransom note after he had killed her, makes no sense, so the note had to be written first. where did he get the information about the $118 sum? then, what happens? he abducts her from her bedroom, but doesn't leave the house right away, instead taking her into the storage room in the basement first where the murder occurs. then he leaves the house.

there are many loose ends here.

It sure makes you wonder so close to Patsy Ramsey death in June, one might think that the Mom might have been involved too

I've heard the the theory advanced that John Ramsey was molesting the little girl, that the mother, Patsy killed the girl but John couldnt tell without admitting his own guilt. I always thought that was a little out there and complicated.
The Ramseys' behavior did irk me though as they pretty well controlled the ways and whens of their interviews with the police. Try telling the police, as they did, that you will come in when you want, you're not ready yet, you refuse. Unless you have some wealth and influcence I dont think you'll get far with that tactic. Still,being less than likeable does not equate to being a murderer.

The "wife" was his ex-wife. She divorced him after an arrest in California....don't know who to believe...

..BUT, the SINGLE thing I alwasy come back to is the AMOUNT on the ransom note...EXACTLY the amount that Mr. Ramsay received in bonus weeks earlier....HOW could this guy know that?

The Boulder DA's office has nothing to do with the Calif case.
