I think if they could prove the brown Santa bear which PR called "shabby", resembling so strongly a picture of Karr's childhood one, actually was his, which appeared that night in JonBenet's bedroom, it would be concrete evidence to connect him, as either there or in cahoots with someone who was, who could have delibered the bear for him as a present for JonBenet.
The bear JonBenet was given at a pageant was new, WHITE, and had some kind of banner on it.
Remember the brown one appeared that night, on the other bed in JonBenet's room. It's got to be important, and surely authorities know it but just don't want to tip their hand by talking about it.

Boulder District Attorney Alex Hunter released a one-page statement and a photograph of the toy, saying he needed help in determining where the stuffed animal came from.
The white bear dressed in a Santa suit puzzles authorities. Its whereabouts apparently are a mystery, adding a twist to the tangled 2-year-old case.
...The color photograph, apparently from the dozens of rolls of pictures shot by crime-scene technicians, depicts a fuzzy white bear, about a foot long, lounging in a red, long-sleeved bolero jacket. The bear is sporting a black belt with a small pouch for presents dangling from it. In the picture, the bear appears to be on the comforter of a bed.

In 1999, investigators released a photograph and asked for the public's help in identifying a small stuffed bear dressed in a Santa Claus suit. It was found in the Ramsey home, and the girl's parents didn't recognize it.
Investigators later learned the bear had been a prize in a beauty contest won by JonBenet a couple of weeks before she was killed... The source said investigators' "proof-positive" about the source of the bear included a statement from the pageant organizer who saw the bear presented to JonBenet, as well as video footage from the pageant showing the bear on a table, among a group of prizes, before it had even been presented to JonBenet.
In February 1999, Boulder police investigators acknowledged that they had never seized it as evidence, and the Ramseys said that they didn't have it.
...One of the e-mails Karr sent to Tracey contained a photograph of a young boy holding a white Santa Claus teddy bear purportedly taken on Christmas morning.
