Come on, the guy just needed a free ride home from Thailand. He was there, taught school like a day, realized what horrible trolls most children are, and figured out a way to get a first class ticket home. 15 minutes of fame while he was at it, too. Talk about VIP treatment.
I think from the first 5 minutes of news coverage, some time before Hezbollah and Israel agreed to monumental peace, some time while we’re still fighting in Iraq and that place we never hear about called Afghanistan, some time when there are about a million more newsworthy things going on, he had a pretty airtight alibi, being in a completely different state with JonBenet was killed.
Maybe he is delusional, but I think the guy just wanted a get-out-of-Asia-and-out-of-teaching-free card. I know lots of teachers who only work a few miles away from home and they’d take the Karr option just to never have to see a chalkboard again. Maybe he got a cash enticement from the Ramseys to boot. Pay off his student loans or something. In the end, no harm, no foul, and the press got like two weeks STRAIGHT of an orgy. Shoot, maybe the media moguls paid him, not the Ramsey family.
