All Ramsey Case, All the Time

Was it just me or were some of you both horrified and sickly amused that - thanks to an intrepid Fox photographer willing to "rough it" by traveling expensive business class on Thai Airlines - the media spent all day yesterday and part of today detailing what allegedly JonBenet Ramsey killer, John Mark Karr, had to eat (yumm.. jumbo fried prawns and champagne!) and that he chose to watch a Tom Cruise movie during his flight home?

Then we heard that Karr told a reporter she would have to spend "many, many hours" with him to be able to do his story of killing the six-year-old justice. Attention seeking behavior? Nahhh.

The highlight today was having his attorney appear on camera to tell us that he is not a nut and that he really DID kill the little beauty queen. Boy, you want a lawyer like that when you're up against a serious crime. Then there are all the trailer types who have come out to say he "likes to rub on children" but he was nice otherwise. Plus his two wives - the one he married when she was 13 and the one he married the day after she turned 15.

Plus there is "Solved or Suckered: The Mystery of John Mark Karr" at Newsweek.
