Jon Benet Died Of A Chloroform Overdose.. Per Karr, Allegedly

[PolkSaladAnnie]

...If he knows so much about the case as to have raised red flags why he making up details that are flat out wrong in this case? doesnt make sense

Yep, psychpathic manipulators do just that, Charlie ... they get their kicks from deliberate acts of confusion, control and concealment. Then they sit back and laugh as crowds scatter to work it all out. (He who laughs loudest, laughs last type-scenario).

Whatever he is or isnt, did or didn't do: he's not good news...

A report has Karr saying that Jon Benet died of a chloroform overdose.

This forum has had a hard time handling the strangeness of both a deadly head bash and a so called garrote, now we have a perp throwing in chloroform into the pie.

And I only see two arms on this guy :waitasec:

Karr said her death is "second-degree" murder, because her death was accidental.

It would be hard to portray a brutal garroting as being "accidental". Death from a chloroform overdose, however, would be more believable; i.e., if chloroform was actually used.

If the evidence does not support the use of chloroform, the prosecutor will portray the alleged chloroform overdose as a ruse in an attempt to avoid a capital murder verdict. It is not uncommon for a confession to include a softened-down storyline in an attempt to lessen a capital murder charge.

The key point of evidence remains: Can the State place Karr in Boulder during Xmas 1996. If so, Karr's confession will likely carry the day for the State. Should the family have pictures that prove Karr was with them during Xmas 1996, they would be well advised to immediately produce them.

The Thai investigator has said that Karr didn't say he picked her up at school , nor did he say he drugged her.
Conjecture on the investiagtaors part.

Reports containing falsehoods are a big part of every high-profile case. Back in the early days of the case, reports containing egregious falsehoods went against the Ramseys.

Everyone needs to stop believing so quickly everytime there is a report "he said this, he said that". IMO. Why not go with what you have actually heard come from his mouth? So much rumor, it's terrible! It's just confusing it all more.

I know the thread title says 'allegedly', when reading however, seems everyone has already taken this statement as if it were true. We don't know crap right now.

I was listening to the profiler Douglas on the radio yesterday morning and he was saying that very thing about the falsehoods against the Ramseys.

I would think that chloroform, used as an anesthestic, would not be detectable in the blood after a certain amount of time. However, were someone to use it over a prolonged period of time or die from an over exposure to it, I would think that there would definitely be tissue (liver, kidneys, heart) damage noted at autopsy.

Now my question is, in case of JBR or any other murder victim - when an autopsy is performed - wouldn't they retain the internal organs and not bury and/or cremate them with the body - I'd think so and I'd think it would be fairly easy to go back and check. I could be way off base here, but just a thought.

Any toxicologist's in the audience?
