PETALUMA (KRON) -- It now appears the only person ever arrested in connection with the murder of Jon Benet Ramsey once taught in Petaluma schools.
The Sonoma County district attorney's office is now confirming 42-year old John Mark Karr was charged with possession of child pornography in April, 2001. Other reports indicate Karr served as a substitute teacher in the Petaluma elementary school system.
Prosecutors say Karr failed to show in court in December, 2001. He's been a fugitive ever since.
Thai police arrested Karr Wednesday in connection with the Jon Benet Ramsey case. The little girl was found dead in her Boulder, Colorado home the day after Christmas, 1996.
The only thing I can think of is that the family made him their spokesperson(bad idea) or that he want his 15mins....
Gotta leave for a while.
PLEASE ping me to everything important or confirmed.
Thanks!
I'm sure he was "just trying to help". Famous last words ...
Now that is NOT the resume of a guy on the run.
Plus he only engaged in sex crimes in Thailand for a book.
HE'S A GREAT GUY!
One of the two and both bad ideas to comment until they have more details. I was shocked at the lack of what the brother knew about the whereabouts of his brother and what he was up to since he didn't know his brother was divorced.
Question: Can they get his DNA off of a cup, match it up and send it over the internet back to the US?

It was a mistake ... really ...
Great job Shermy! Where he mentions his private duty teaching in Europe and how he bathed the children gives me the willies.
Silence should have been the word of the day for the family until they have more details. Greta just read about his warrant on porn on the air so they are behind FR as usual!
Yeah, I think so.
I wonder about the rumors of a DNA match. Could they have goten a semen sample from his escapades in Thailand? Ugh!
It will be interesting to see what information comes out at the press conference in Boulder tomorrow
Oh, I missed the warrant!
Dr Henry Lee:
the underpants she was wearing, were made in Thailand?
Henry Lee talking about the source of the ligature.
According to what they said there are five warrants from CA based on child porno charges.

Okay!!!! I thought I was hallucinating!!!
That's a pretty good alibi.
Thanks for translating Dr Lee...I can't understand him...............that's it for Greta, she's off to the ME now.
I have no confidence in the one guy as he was convinced by the brother that he was never in Boulder when the brother didn't know he was divorced. Amazing people like that are the ones doing the investigation.
