Fox reported that Thailand officials have backed away from reports that Karr said he picked JonBenet up at school or that he drugged her.Lt. Gen. Suwat Tumrongsiskul of the Thai immigration police changed some details Friday of the account he had given of what Karr told investigators. In a telephone interview Thursday with The Associated Press, Suwat quoted Karr as saying he had sexually assaulted the girl and given her drugs. He also told reporters before a news conference Thursday that Karr had claimed to have picked up JonBenet at her school.

On Friday, Suwat confirmed to the AP his account of the sexual assault. But asked Friday if Karr gave the girl drugs, Suwat said the suspect described the encounter with JonBenet Ramsey as "a blur."

"It may have been drugs, or it may have been something else because (Karr said) it was a blur, blur," Suwat said.

Suwat also said Friday that his statement about the girl being picked from school was based on a documentary he had seen and not the interrogation.

IMHO, the sooner JMK is back in the United States and under our authority, the better. The truth will come out then. :banghead:

I highly suspect that the Boulder D.A. was very happy to have the chance to detain and question Karr in Thailand.

I cannot beleive this thread was bumped all the way to the 3rd page already!

Let's get him back and find out.

But this doesn't mean he did it. Let's all remember that.

One way or another, stay tuned, there's a lot more to this story! If he did it, I can't begin to imagine where his ramblings will take us next! If he didn't, we'll be right back on this case and going strong. Natalee who? Poor Beth will have a hissy if she hasn't already!:eek:

Well considering we haven't heard any details from any US investigator (that was in the room), I'm sure there will be a lot of backing away from the original "Thai tales" once this guy hits the US.

Documentary? That made me laugh. Now just whose documentary could he have seen...hmmmmmm?
