BANGKOK, Thailand - Thai police said Thursday that a 41-year-old American man has admitted to the killing a decade ago of 6-year-old beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey in the United States.
Lt. Gen. Suwat Tumrongsiskul, head of Thailand's immigration police, told The Associated Press that John Mark Karr confessed to the killing after his arrest Wednesday at a downtown Bangkok apartment.
"He told police while under arrest that he did kill the girl but so far he has not pleaded guilty in writing. This is needed as official evidence," Suwat said.

At least we know now it wasn't OJ.
There was sex assualt evidence in the autopsy. Here's the summary-

YUCK, I think this is the guy!
There is DNA evidence to back up the claims of the police in this case. Also, there is a lot of evidence the police ignored during the original investigation because they were fixed on the parents as guilty. They weren't, there was no evidence at all of the parents committing this crime regardless of years of police probling, lying and manufacturing evidence.
They also covered up evidence that would have led to the arrest of this guy years ago because they wanted to nail the parents. They were blinded to the real facts by their training that relatives are the perps in most murder cases.
All this is a matter of record, with the DA that was in charge at the time saying recently that he tried to get the police to investigate the other evidence to no avail. His statement is long and very damning to the police.
He reminds me of a young Gray Davis.
I always thought the brother did it. :-(
I'm sure many of us here thought parents or brother.
Glad they got the culprit. It is a SHAME her mother didn't live to see this day!
My God....he's apparently been all over the world teaching in those few years......or so it says.
Patsy died June 24 of this year. Not even two months ago.

I'm going to go out on a limb early here. I'm starting to believe this guy is not involved.
I want to know how much he emailed to Patsy if at all.
HUH? This is what probably started the investigation on him then.....
Working with high-profile families.....
Worked with large groups in school plays.
Perhaps this guy also operates under an alias??
He looks like a character right out of a David Lynch movie.
He couldn't remember the name of the college he attended???
He didn't know if he was still married or not???
And, he didn't even know his brother was in Thailand.
He DID say, however, that his brother was a "wonderful guy". LOL
Uh oh, I'm late for work!
Who is the man in the Blue Island Shirt hanging on to John Mark Karr in the video's?
"He looks like a character right out of a David Lynch movie."
You took the words right out of my mouth!
He is creepy looking....But HE'S A GREAT GUY!
The autopsy proves how she died.
I pray they have DNA or palm print, etc. to confirm his guilt, or he could just be a crackpot! Please God, don't let this be a false confession..
