I honestly agree with you that the failure to match DNA shouldn't exonerate Karr on its own but the failure to come up with *anything else* other than his own bizarre statements means they could never win a conviction.

This actually happens in police work all the time - they have somebody who "looks" guilty but they just have nothing solid to pin the case on him. The cops usually just bide their time until they can find something that breaks the case open.

FWIW, I don't think Karr was anywhere near the murder site and I still believe, as I have going on nine years, that the Ramseys *know* the killer and have covered up for him/her. I can't tell you who that person is - it might not even be the immediate family - but the Ramseys have from the beginning been a family that doesn't act like they want the truth known.

The fact that Lin Wood was prancing before microphones even while the news first broke that Karr was in custody was partly what fueled my suspicion. If he had shut up and waited for an appropriate time to speak, the arrest would not have seemed like a PR move.

From what I read about Karr, he's definitely a pedophile and I don't doubt that his DNA sample will wind up matching some poor child's assault somewhere but, in my opinion, most people who become obsessed with a particular crime do so because they want to learn who did it - not because they themselves did it. A person who did the crime is trying to find out what law enforcement knows so they can avoid detection but their questions are going to be different than the ones of somebody who is trying to "get close" to the crime as Karr clearly did.

I hope that continued digging by both the media and BPD will eventually turn up iron clad physical proof that he couldn't have done it and then ignore him.

But letting him get away with this stunt and leaving the matter hanging as possible but unprovable is just begging for continued posturing on the part of JMK.
