Exactly... Who did that investigating? Surely whoever did it, if they were being responsible, asked Lara (his wife at the time) where JMK was on 25th/26th December. At the time of his "so-called" confessions to Wendy Hutchens (and the tape recordings), i.e. in April 2001, Lara and JMK were still married. Certainly, a memory of only 5 years before (2001 minus 1996) would not have been so hard to dredge up at that time. The critical question per whether the confession could be true HAD to be, "Is it possible that he could have been in Boulder on 25th/26th of Dec. in 1996. Where is the file, who has the file on that investigation? Over what length of time did that investigation last? Per Wendy, I believe, the FBI was called in at the time.
They held JMK in jail from April to October 2001 (with a bail of 100K that they would not lower to 50K when asked) and my thinking is that the reason why they did that had far more to do with buying time to investigate JMK's "so-called" confession per JBR. I am even a bit suspicious of the allegation about





found on his machine. IF JMK was researching for the book he said he was writing, did those pictures have to do with his research, something needed for the book? One of the news articles pointed out that in one of the court hearings after his arrest in 2001, JMK offered for LE to view the book on his computer. They had, however, already confiscated his computer and found the photos.
IF it is true that the guy offered LE to go to his computer and view the book, what was his point? Did those photos have anything to do with the research?
On the news the other night, there was a gent who was doing some research and came across some child





on the web. He went to authorities. Had he not done so while he was doing his research and had someone found that





, would he have been arrested? If someone were to look on my machine at this time, they would find some very interesting things just based on research I am doing. Am I a sick puppy because I wanted to review injuries to little JBRs body? Am I because I was trying to figure out the extent of her sexual injuries and have thus looked up related information? See what I mean?
I'm not defending this guy, I'm just trying to figure out the truth about a number of things. Honestly, I would like to know the truth of that which they found on JMKs machine. One of his former lawyers, I believe, said that the children in the photos were dressed normally (i.e. "not dressed up.") I have read mixed info on those photos.
Lighthouselover, I want to know about the 2001 investigation too. I would like to know the truth of things...how can it be judged reasonably without knowing the facts, not just the allegations.
