A picture of light- JonBenet Ramsey

(BANGKOK, Thailand) - The Associated Press and other wire services are reporting that an American has been arrested in Thailand in the 6-year old JonBenet Ramsey case. 41-year old John Mark Karr has confessed to authorities in Thailand.

The arrest is regarded as a surprise breakthrough in the decade-old murder case in Boulder, Colorado. The case has never gotten far from the public eye, managing to stay on the covers of grocery aisle papers like the Enquirer for years.

The information on the arrest comes from a spokesman with the immigration police in Thailand immigration police. It is a serious note for a society that has largely condemned the parents of the child, though their possible involvement was thouroughly investigated and they were cleared.

Lt. Gen. Suwat Tumrongsiskul told The Associated Press that John Mark Karr admitted to the killing after he was arrested at his downtown Bangkok apartment Wednesday night,

He said Karr's June 6th arrival in Bangkok from Malaysia was a trip to look for a teaching job. Suwat was not clear whether Karr received the teaching position, the police officer said.

Karr's visa has been revoked when he was declared an "undesirable person" with respect to the current allegations against him, and U.S. authorities were expected to take him to the United States in the next few days.

I have read all that as been reported on this case and I still believe it was the parents the mother killed the little girl

this is one of the most saddest thing I have ever seen cause John Mark Karr is supposed to be punnished! JonBenet was such a pretty girl....pretty girl....

this is really a tragedy all in all but if this is the guy who did it may he burn in hell for hurting a little girl

The public should be ashamed if they judged the parents of this girl. They sit behind that God awful tube and and make snap moronic judgements. They are all such experts in the comfort of their livingrooms while they are stuffing their friggin pig faces.
