The CO end of everything didn't know Karr's name until August 11th. They only knew it five days before he was arrested.
Tracey had an email or letter with a vague street address on it that wasn't exact, just an area of Bangkok. Cops traced the email to that Internet cafe that is next door to the fleabag hotel where he stayed.
They asked Thai cops to assist. Thai cops kept all the Americans in that hotel under surveillance for several weeks. A BDA investigator was there for 3 weeks, but didn't know Karr's name or that he was that specific American among those they were watching.
Then Tracey sent something to a PO Box Karr gave him. Karr had previously told Tracey he was getting around on a 21-speed bicycle. When someone on a 21-speed bicycle came to get the package at the PO Box, they nailed him as "Daxis." That's when they found out his name was John Mark Karr.
Thank you... all the catching up they (LE) have to do makes since to me. I wondering if Karr sent something to Patsy (well LE) and if that something had proof needed in it?
If Karr is the one... then Patsy dying may have played a huge role in this. Karr just didn't think he would be caught but his desire to communicate with Patsy before she passed on is what gave him up to LE.
Now I just listen to one lawyer on MSNBC (he's a popular Jewish lawyer who worked on the OJ case) said a DNA match from her panties may not be needed because he said there is some question as to if that DNA was already in her panties. (most likely the Lee theory that DNA may come from someone who sneezed on the panties when they were being sewn together at a sewing machine in the factory and the panties were brand new out of package when she or someone put on her.)
