Down Memory Lane...of a different city...


Colorado Springs private investigator who has worked on the JonBenet Ramsey case for almost a decade says he’s asking the district attorney and police to take another look at a one-time suspect who he thinks could be a threat to other girls. Ollie Gray, who initially was hired by the Ramseys and has worked independently on the case for years alongside retired Colorado Springs homicide detective Lou Smit, said Saturday that he believes John Mark Karr has sent a new e-mail indicating he has targeted other girls, that he has killed and will kill again.

Karr, 43, was arrested in Bangkok, Thailand, on Aug. 15, 2006, after he implicated himself in JonBenet’s death. Karr was released about two weeks later after Boulder County District Attorney Mary Lacy announced that his DNA didn’t match evidence from the crime scene. But Gray said he received an e-mail Friday — which marked 12 years since JonBenet’s body was found in the basement of her family’s University Hill home — that he believes was originally sent from Karr to an acquaintance that tells of his lurid plans. “I will kill again,” an excerpt from the message states. “It will not atone for her death but it will honor it.” The message, which Gray said he forwarded to the Boulder County District Attorney’s Office and the Boulder Police Department, was signed by the pseudonym “Daxis.” Police have said Karr used the name in a series of e-mails that led to his arrest two years ago.
