With the arrest of Karr and everything that has come out, some previously puzzling things could be explained. These are details that people say are "impossible", such as the intruder spending hours in the house writing the note. I don't think these are at all impossible but certain other things are way more puzzling.
- if he attended the party at the Ramsey's on the 23rd, with his brother (this is the story he told the woman in Calif. in 2001), he would have not only met JBR, spent time with her so she would not fear him when he appeared in her house on Xmas night; he would have chatted with the guests and found out the Ramseys would be at the Whites' house for a party on the 25th, and thus he would know he had a certain number of hours to explore the house, write a practice note and a note, before they returned home. All this hinges on his being at that party. Is there a list of guests? The Ramsey family all have said they don't remember Karr. If Karr's brother worked for Ramsey, and Karr was tagging along at the party, it's possible no one would notice him. In fact this intruder theory was talked about on forums 8 years ago, the young man who was a pedophile who went and waited in the house, exploring it, for hours while they were at the party.
There are two parties - the Ramsey party on the 23rd where he would have attended, circulated, met and played with JBR, at some time unlocking the basement window to let himself in at a later time; and the White party on the 25th where he knew they would be going for several hours and which gave him time to enter the Ramsey house thru the window, explore it, write the note, and wait until they came home. All this hinges on him being in Colorado and attending that party with his brother. His wife says he was with her at Xmas 1996. If it is proven that he was really with his wife in Alabama, then all the rest of his stories fall apart and he is just a wacko.
- knowing what we know now about his obsession with little girls and even his desire to become female now, the odd things done in redressing her and staging the body would fit with his personality. (the evil side of him did the crime; the gentle side of him redressed her and arranged the body, etc.) What doesn't fit is the violent crime. In his own words now he says it was an accident and he is sorry she died. He has never confessed to killing her, only to being there and not being innocent. I think this points to multiple personality (he disapproves of his violent side and doesn't feel it was his "real" self). Either that or he had a partner, which seems improbable since he is such a loner type.
These are just some of the many points of discussion based on what has unfolded so far - certain things could already be explainable if he is the one. To my eye the handwriting on the note could be his. It is very similar to the yearbook, in parts, especially the d's and a's. But other things have to be explained.
What is the most puzzling is why an effeminate man like this would be attracted to little girls. Why if he loved them and loved JBR he would commit a brutal crime, and use such overkill, and call it an accident.
We now know he went to a sex change clinic. I noted in photos he looks like he already had surgery to remove his adam's apple. He already had the facial hair removed and has the white skin and slight frame that make him look so feminine. He appears to be wearing mascara and eyeliner all the time. What is the story here? There is no evidence he molested or killed anyone else, but a lot of proof he was a pedophile. This is one reason he is seen as just a wacko by so many.
If he was attracted to girls he was a heterosexual pedophile. So why would he become a woman now, ten years later? Do men become lesbian pedophile transsexuals (I have never heard of such a thing), or is he trying to make amends now by getting rid of that part of himself that did the crime, or what?For me this is much more puzzling than figuring out how and why he wrote the ransom note, or other details. I feel he has been wracked with guilt for ten years and that is the only reason he was caught - he never would have been caught, if he had not talked to people about it, especially the long emails to the professor. This too indicates a split personality.
He said something like, It was not the way it seems. This could mean anything - it could even mean he took the fall for someone else. We do not know, we just have pieces of information, some may be true, some may be made up; but some are actual fact: evidence found; known actions of his, etc.
Many theories have been proposed, including that he was in a child
ring; that there was a group molesting her, either including the parents or not; that he didn't know the family or JBR at all but learned about it all thru studying the case and is fantasizing that he was involved; only one theory can be true and I don't think we have all the pieces of the puzzle yet.
