CA - Child porn charges against John Mark Karr dismissed

[panthera]

Thanks Buzz as you have indeed resolved that issue of his newest computer.

10 feathers in your hat :hand: Scandi

Buzz is really on top of it! Thanks for all the research!

 

[Buzz Mills]

Yes, I am aware of the rumors about his interest in a young girl in Thailand. I kinda liked General Suwat myself, but I know he got a little carried away with some of the things he said.
I guess my point is is that, there is no credible information that the Thais had him under investigation for anything.

By the way Buzz, how many comments did YOU leave at the Press-Democrat? Hmmmm?

Speaking of General Suwat, I wonder if he made it through the revolution. Karr's lucky they deported him when they did.

But can we really believe anything that coems out of Sonoma County scandi?? LOL. They have been known to lie.

 

[scandi]

Bely the thought my dear! My God, we need to trust them. I don't always trust that whatever goes into an article though is always the verbatim truth!

Buzz, do we need to have Chief Corona go to Sonoma County and make an assessment? Baa Haa Haa Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Boy, wasn't he top notch? I've seen a few others of his ILK lately too, and it is always gratifying to see.

ETA: Wasn't it wonderful to see Karma at work with Harmon? :slap: Ha Ha

On another note, what dear Buzzml, have WE heard of Karrs brother coming to California to HEP him?

Did he fly, take the Super Chief, er having some car problems?

IS he hanging in Sonoma County waiting for the verdict? Where are our illustrious media people in digging him up for an interview. Could it be this is becoming OLDE news?

IF IF Karr walks out, will his family lock him up to keep him outta future problems. This guy needs LONG time therapy, and his food slid under the door to him.

I would not be sure that IF IF I were his brother that I would take him into my household.

ALSO HOW did this guy run such a detailed trip schedule around the world with NO FUNDS?

The female attorneys Patience and whatshername Harmon, were something to behold, like sharks with a fresh food supply.

Do you suppose that Patience is related to our loved Clint VanZandt?

Get your shovel out again Buzzml. WE need to know this stuff.

--->>>Scandi, IT has happened, I can see Chief Corona in my minds eye, wonderful figure of a man, BUT BUT I cannot remember which case, was it Danielle?

Also who is Karma, what PD does he work for?

Humor, sorry, Bumper Sticker I saw years ago, "Your Karma Ran Over My Dogma""

lhl, from that article:

Edmonds said detectives haven't found evidence on Karr's other computers.

A laptop returned with Karr from Thailand is in the hands of federal authorities, and Sonoma County detectives are working with them to determine whether there may be any evidentiary value in it, Edmonds said.

Thanks for the link, but that's not the same article that I was referring to. This was an earlier article. It was shortly after the Boulder extradition hearing and before Sonoma said they had never received any laptop from Boulder, which was last week IIRC.

First I am sorry if this is posted somewhere else....I just came across it, and quite frankly....I am pi$$ed to say the least!!!

Who in their RIGHT MIND would offer this pervert a plea agreement on "pornography charges"...that would free him on probation??? :furious:
:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

The World has gone to He11 in a Hand Basket!!!!!

Perhaps DA Joann Risse would like Karr to babysit her children (especially little girls, if she has any) while he is out on free on probation!!!


SANTA ROSA, California (AP) -- One-time JonBenet Ramsey murder suspect John Mark Karr was offered a plea deal Tuesday on child pornography charges that would free him on probation.
Assistant District Attorney Joann Risse said prosecutors would waive three of the five child pornography possession charges against him if he pleaded guilty on two remaining charges.

Karr, 41, would get credit for time served and would be placed on probation for three years. He also would be required to register as a sex offender.

More at like...excuse me while I :sick:

What a sick way to start the day!!!!!!

Jimminy Crickets! This guy needs to be locked away from our children!


I say we track this [link removed], find out where he goes (where he is living/traveling) and keep tabs on this guy, warning all around that they need to protect their children!

 

[sabego]

Agree!

I will say once again (outside the box I know) they need to lose their eyesight! Can't see them, can't get them! JMHO

[Paladin]

I really can't believe they're giving this guy anything after the runaround he gave LE in Boulder, CO.

I have to hand it to the guy though...he avoided jail time overseas in a foreign country and did it in style: first class flight with champaign.

 

[2sisters]

Enough people were angerd by his recent actions so i have no doubt a citizen on the outside will try to take care of him. i am quite sure he will continue being a pedophile

 

[JBean]

They offered this deal because they lost all the evidence. . They are trying to get him on something. At least on probation he will be monitored to a certain degree and LE can search him at any time without probable cause. It's worth a try.

Original evidence missing in John Mark Karr child porn case

Associated Press

SANTA ROSA, Calif. - Sonoma County authorities say they've lost the computer that belonged to one-time JonBenet Ramsey murder suspect John Mark Karr and allegedly held the child pornography images that he's charged with possessing.

But the missing computer, seized from Karr's home in 2001, was not expected to jeopardize the case against him because authorities had copied the entire hard drive contents and printed out the five illicit images, Sheriff's Department Lt. Dave Edmonds told The Press-Democrat of Santa Rosa on Tuesday

Child porn case against Karr hits a snag
Prosecutors can’t find computer that allegedly contained illegal images


SANTA ROSA, Calif. - Efforts to prosecute one-time JonBenet Ramsey murder suspect John Mark Karr on child pornography charges should not be jeopardized even though his computer that allegedly contained the images was lost, Sonoma County authorities said Wednesday.

Authorities seized the computer from Karr’s home in 2001 and copied the entire hard drive onto paper, including the five illicit images, said Sheriff’s Department Lt. Dave Edmonds. He said authorities looked for the computer for the past two weeks, but have had no luck.

“We did an exhaustive search. We have probably hundreds of thousands of evidence items and we’re certain at this point, through a couple of weeks of effort, that it’s not misplaced inside of our property unit,” he said.

They offered this deal because they lost all the evidence. he will probably reject it and walk. They are trying to get him on something. At least on probation he would have been monitored to a certain degree and would not have search and seizure rights.

WHAT?!?! Thanks to their incompentence, another child will be victimized by KArr. Way to go!

I am sure we haven't heard the last of him. There is no cure for these freaks.

Karr's first court appearance today
Former substitute teacher skipped court date in 2001 on charges of possessing child pornography

By JEREMY HAY
THE PRESS DEMOCRAT

"John Mark Karr, his international infamy fading into the realm of bizarre trivia since DNA evidence undid his claim that he killed JonBenet Ramsey, is to appear in Sonoma County court today in relation to old charges of possessing child pornography."

"Today in Superior Court Judge Cerena Wong's courtroom, the arrest warrant issued after Karr skipped a 2001 court date is to be recalled. The process of setting a trial date will then go forward, said Assistant District Attorney Larry Scoufos.

"We're going to pick up where we left off," Scoufos said."

"Sheriff's detectives have reopened the investigation to determine if more evidence may be recoverable from Karr's computers seized five years ago, but in a statement issued Wednesday, Passalacqua said Karr faces only the original five counts.

Asked if the reopened investigation has produced additional evidence that may be used against Karr, Scoufos said only that: "We're starting to look again at the evidence we have, and it's conceivable we could find new evidence up to the time the case is resolved."

He said the District Attorney's Office does not have a laptop computer seized from Karr in Thailand, a computer Boulder authorities said was given to Sonoma County authorities as evidence in their case."

A good article, there is more.

Lighthouse, I am quoting this post I made. I think it is the information you are referring to.
The article was published on Thursday, Sep 14, 2006
Unfortunately, in order to read the article now, you have to register for an account at the Press Democrat site.

Eventually Karr might act out his fantasy of being there when JBR was murdered by copying the murder with another little girl. This creep should be locked up.

That's my fear too. He got so much attention and was so "in" to his make believe story about the murder, I think he's very likely to make his fantasy come true.

 

[Maral]

Child Molester Karr offered a plea deal!!!

While I believe Karr is a very sick and perverted man and should probably be institutionalized, he has never been accused of child molesting as the thread title states.
