Karr family says photo casts doubt on his guilt (No date, Karr not in photo though)

This whole thing was Twilight Zone material when it happened... ten years later, it just keeps getting weirder and weirder.

I can't tell you for sure where I was Christmas 1996, and probably don't have a dated photo, either. But I know exactly who I was with, my wife and kids, because we haven't spent a Christmas apart since we were married. Sounds like that was Karr's situation until he screwed up his life, went on the lam, and his wife divorced him.

The Boulder D.A. had better have had more solid evidence to arrest this guy on other than his "confession."

[quark]

Definitely.

I have a photo of my dog eating from his dish. Proof positive that Ann Coulter wants my body!

LOL!!

BTW, Ann's sitting on my lap and she thinks it's funny, too....;^)

[wildwood]

have no recollection of him missing a Christmas

....HAVE NO RECOLLECTION OF is NOT a defense...it's a hillary clinton line.

[dubie]

is this your dog??

[mad puppy]

I don't think this clown killed her. The guy is a freak, no doubt, but I think he is playing a role and wants to be seen a some notorious bad guy. The guy was a suspect years ago and somehow they weren't able to pin it on him then. Something just doesn't smell right.

Sick s-o-b? Obviously.
Kill of JonBenet? I have my doubts at this point.

Why are we all guessing? Just wait until the DNA comes back. If it's a match, all of us (but one) can go home.

There has not been any indication I know of that any family member is inclined to falsely alibi for this measley pervert.

I believe I read elsewhere that his wife has said she "loathes" him.

HAVE NO RECOLLECTION OF is NOT a defense...it's a hillary clinton line.

Exactly. The proof thing works both ways, which is why I am playing Devil's Advocate on this thread.

Just as the Boulder DA has to show Motive AND Opportunity -- IE Prove Karr was in Boulder, the defense must prove he is not there if there is evidence he was.

In a court of law this photo means nothing and proves nothing.

It's only use would be to raise reasonable doubt if all the DA can present is circumstantial evidence, but it is in no way exculpatory at all.

I think we better keep an eye on you.

FOTFLOL!

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The guy is a perverted nut who fantasized so much about child killings that he has convinced himself that he committed the most infamous child killing in the recent past.

His family is just trying to make sense of things, given what they know.

If he really did it and he really wants everyone to know, why didn't he turn himself in on Day 1?

LOL --- could be my Pug, Jack.

[colorado tanker]

It's very strange, the leaks and rumors have started, but so far no one has come forward who can put this fruitcake in Colorado at the time of the crime, nor has any document surfaced to do the same. I hope I'm wrong, but people are starting to get nervous that Boulder has screwed up again.

[BigSkyFreeper]

LOL! I think that photo is funny.

[PeteB570]

As with me. I've spent every Christmas with my family since we've been married. Except for a few were I was OCONUS and have travel vouchers to prove it. Most X'mas' with her family but a few with mine. I'd have to sit down and think real hard on where I was in what year. 1996 was in Fayetteville, first Christmas as a retired fart. I am in very, very few pictures.

My understanding is the confession came after the arrest so yes they have to have something else..

[onyx]

It's perfect!

Hillary gave my neighbor crabs. She's never met him, but we're confident she wouldn't miss the opportunity to give crabs.
