Do you know what his mother died from?
John Z. Delorean. Sufferer of the World's Worst mid-life crisis.
Have no idea what his mother died from.
They were cheaper about 10 years ago...
Why would the Ramseys write that?
The above story makes a lot more sense.

Before everyone gets into a tizzy about one interpretation over another, ie saved by the cross of shall be the conquerer. It is not a stretch that the man took a common phrase and created his own private meaning for it.
Perhaps Walsh came close to catching Karr in another Cold Case. The letter is a taunt in many ways. Perhaps the part that says "Don't try to grow a brain, John" is really directed to Walsh? (Now that sounds a bit far fetched but a twisted mind does funny things.)
Where was Walsh from?
What is a scaft?
They were living in Florida when the crime happened.

Could be she had cancer or died of some other natural cause. But we don't seem to know at this point.
What if it was accidental overdose, or self-inflicted or some harm was done to her? Might, and I say might, give us some insight into this case. In addition to other possible insights...Karr himself claims she raised him like a girl. Hmmmmm.
I'm not saying it was from any of those causes...I don't know.
I do know that a lot of times in a story it will be included WHAT the person who died "out of phase", so to speak, died from.
Makes me wonder, that's all, if there's something there of significance that hasn't been told.
It looks like they're taking him to California first.

Who's in a tizzy?
Some are noting the strangeness of Karr making such a point of predicting in A HS yearbook that one day maybe I (S)HALL (B)E (T)HE (C)ONQUEROR, then years later confessing to a heinous crime that had the letters signed like this at the end of a "ransom note" in which he taunted the Ramseys...
Victory
S.B.T.C.
No one I know is saying those letters couldn't stand for any number of things, taken in isolation from these particular facts that include the yearbook signing and the ransom note signing and the confession by Karr.
New York.
At least he was when his son was abducted and murdered.
I'm not sure where he was born but I can google.
I think a key to the SBTC notation might well be--is this a phrase he's used fairly often? Did he make similar comments when signing other yearbooks?
I googled and found in Wikipedia that he was born in Auburn, New York (whereever Auburn NY is...).
Now when I had my accident in it, I was driving along at 55 and some gal with a MADD sticker on her car was arguing with her kid and pulled out right in front of me. That almost totalled it but I got the parts myself and made out great on the insurance again. I think I had about 10G left over after getting the parts and having the whole car repainted. I didn't see any markings as to what color it was painted but it was done locally in Bend at Dudes Body Shop who knew just how to paint it and it came out great. I originally traded a 928 Porsche I had just bought for 15G for this DeLorean that had a window sticker of 34G because they weren't able to sell it.
That would be interesting to know if he did it more than once. But if he only did it ONCE, to me that's very odd to put on a HS yearbook signing page (SHALL BE THE CONQUEROR), and then to have those exact letters show up as the signature (S.B.T.C.) on the "ransom note" in a murder case to which he later confesses...
My bad...he was indeed living in FL not NY when his son disappeared. But I am correct that he was originally from NY. But in the mind of someone who tries to make something out of the fact that a person has a southern heritage, the fact is FL is a southern state.
