Arrest Made in JB Murder - Aug 16th, 2006

[PrayersForMaura]

Holy cow. I knew all of you would be posting quickly on this!!

I just heard the news. I always believed it was someone in the immediate family. Egg on my face.

Justice for Jon Benet!

 

[Paladin]

I hope we don't have to wait until they get this suspect back in the states before we hear any more about this. That could take days/weeks.

If this turns out true Maura, dont worry there will be Egg on many peoples faces. I think 90% of people thought they had something to do with it. I was on the fence all the time but I never really thought patsy or john did it but maybe covered for burke.

Make some coffee AND a martini!! You'll be awake and in a good mood!! I hope and pray that this arrest turns out to be something.

Now there's a thought - there's two bottles of champagne in the fridge, so you think "him indoors" would notice?

I'm almost afraid to get off the forum because it might crash an I won' be able to get back in!

I really really hope and pray they caught the killer. If true ... how unfortunate Patsy couldn't be with her family to see this day!

I Googled NEWS about this announcement, of which there was none yet, but the article I pulled up was about the Apple Dumpling Gang who are a team of retired LE investigators who are working on solving 3 or 4 cases in Boulder. I just skimmed it as it was not what I wanted, but I'll go pull it up. I recognized one name of a guy that I think I saw do a special about the case.

Scandi

ETA: Lou Smit is a member of this ADG

It was in connection with the solved case of Heather Church that Smit was quoted as saying that the parents were not involved in JonBenet's murder. I think I read it either in this link or in the related links: http://huffcrimeblog.com/?cat=15

Go for it! You only live once!!! :blowkiss:

 

[Mabel]

I expect that it will turn out to be someone who knew the family or perhaps who worked with John.

Greetings! I have not been to the forums in YEARS but I came right over when I heard the news. I hope this is for real and this is the guy. Here is the Washington Post's story.

Federal Authorities on their way to Bangcok.

JOHN KARR---name of suspect


Used to live in COLORADO--He is an American citizen

 

[bakerprune64]

Julianne, if the parents had just sat down with police in the first place, an arrest might have been made a LOT sooner and they wouldn't have suffered at the hands of the media for "not co-operating". We can't re-write history - facts is facts.

BRAVO, I was just thinking of a way to write that.

JOHN KARR---name of suspect


Used to live in COLORADO

Really, they just said on my news they wont release his name.

 

[julianne]

Name came from FOX news just a minute ago that JOHN KARR is an american citizen. They said he was interviewed early on in the investigation

Possibly had connections with the University of CO, not confirmed. Possibly a scientist with molecular biology background. per C McKinley via Fox News.
