Thai officials and placed in a holding cell before being loaded on a jet for a 15 1/2-hour flight to Los Angeles. He said nothing as he was paraded before reporters.
The Thai Airways flight then departed about 30 minutes late, and is expected to arrive in Los Angeles about 10 p.m. Mountain time tonight.
It's unclear what will happen then. But U.S. immigration officials speculated that Karr will immediately be served with an arrest warrant by Boulder authorities as soon as he is on U.S. soil. At that point, he may be turned over to Los Angeles authorities, and proceedings will begin to extradite him to Colorado.
Earlier on Sunday in Asia, Karr's day began in a holding cell in the Thailand Immigration Detention Center, where he was served a traditional breakfast of rice and eggs.
