If I remember correctly, that movie was really, really slanted AGAINST the parents (?)

The Tabloids and cable nets are going to have a heck of a time figuring out whether to lead with Jon Benet or 9/11 for the next couple of weeks.

Maybe we need a good Hurricane for FEMA to screw up...

I heard on the local news this morning that the guy got Champagne and Prawns in business class on his way back to the US from Thailand.

That's sad. I wonder what they serve in the cargo hold.

Yeah,

Plus he wasn't handcuffed. I mean we already know he's a flight risk, so why shouldn't he be treated like any other prisioner who is being transferred?

He's a flight risk? I thought he gave himself up?

Didn't his wife say he was in Alabama, and John Ramesy doesn't know him, and since he's from Thailand, and avoiding jail there, I have one question:

What did he do in Thailand that is so bad that Thailand says you have to go to prison? That must have been twisted.

I'd suspect he was caught in a sex raid.

But he was technically extradited (sp?) for immigration violations, not whatever he did in Thailand. The US can't arrest him until he enters the country. I don't know if they did, but they were talking about flying him to N. California where he already had a warrent for child pornography.

Easier to arrest him for old charges than prove the new ones. A confession alone is not enough to convict.

If it was some conspiracy, I'm pretty sure John Ramsey would still be denying that he knew the guy. I have no idea.

He fled the country the last time that he was arrested. I think you only get one chance with that sort of thing.

Looks like his DNA was not a match and charges won't be filed.

They might actually lead with Katrina too, since the 1yr anniversary is approaching.
