My previous questions were based on what I knew he had said so far.
I listened to more of the taped confessions last night. He spends hours talking about the attack and the escape, including many details. The way he describes it, he never mentions washing the body. And there would be tons of dna all over her and her clothes. He wouldn't have had time to wash her. In his detailed scenario, he panicked when he killed her and was racing around trying to deliver the ransom note to her pillow, then heard a voice and dropped it on the stairs. He planned to go back and get the body and clean it up but instead he feared he'd be caught so he left. So he HADN'T cleaned the body yet, and never did. So there would have to be lots of his dna.
His made up story is long and takes hours to tell. Why did he bother making it up? Because he's insane. Why is no one giving him some psychological help? This man needs drugs and counselling desperately now, and for the rest of his life, and to be watched closely at all times.
The thing that bothers me is that he is a desperately sick individual and now that he is known to be a liar, I don't see anything in the news about him being given any help. I don't see anything about whether the other children he mentions molesting are being tracked down. He suffers from severe paranoia and delusions. He thought of Michael Tracey as his best friend. When you listen to the tapes, anyone would realize Michael Tracey was a sleazy amoral opportunist, and stop talking to him. But Karr was so desperate for a friend (or for notoriety and exposure) that even when he suspects the phone is tapped he keeps on blabbing.
Even a homicidal maniac could have figured out that Tracey was not believable in his non-judgmental attitude toward the accounts of the murder. And constantly urging him to give more details "So John, did you escape on a car or a bicycle??" "I'm not going to tell you that." I just can't believe Karr is that stupid. His mind is working all the time, he notices every little thing Tracey does or doesn't say. He's desperate for acceptance and understanding and Tracey is his one link to the Ramseys and the world. OR: He is playing a game believing he is this Daxis character, the dark prince. Someone please give this man a diagnosis now.
This is a psychological problem.
Why did he say both in Thailand to the police, and in the phone calls to Tracey that he thinks he didn't leave any dna? Because he wasn't there. If we believe any parts of his story, he would have left the dna on the body. He gave no evidence of cleaning or wiping away his saliva. It's just not there in his otherwise detailed account. Sadly I have to admit he couldn't have done it. He's just not living in reality. He was so messed up by his childhood and somehow slipped through the cracks of our mental health system.
This leaves the Ramsey case as an unsolved mystery. Did the Ramseys or another intruder do it? I don't know anymore. I hoped they had solved it but no. This individual has used up his 15 minutes of fame with his fake confessions. Let him get help now, that's all I ask and keep him away from children for the rest of his life.
