Karr's family offers book, movie rights

Uodate 8/29/06

OK, Karr is not going to be charged. It seems that he is just a disturbed individual. Although he is still wanted on child pornographt charges. So the premise of the below is still relevant with regards to profit from the deed.

When is enough, enough. Here we have family members ready to auction off movie and book rights which, first of all they do not have , nor own. The first thing that the assigned judge should do is strip any participant in this case from profitting from this unholy disgusting senseless murder. If family members were truly concerned about Karr getting expert needed counsel they would be mortgaging their homes, or maybe they don't have faith in the fact that Karr is innocent. I use the term innocent extremely loosely. I am a true believer that everyone should have there day in court. If they cannot afford an attorney one will be appointed by the preciding judge.

This is nothing more than just a grab for publicity and possibly some profit on the side. I would be ashamed just to acknowledge that I was a family member. Even overlooking the fact that he has not been proven quilty of JonBenet's murder look at what he was caught with and where he was. This guy is a pervert and deserves all that he gets.

I would be extremely surprised if the defense does not try to plead insanity. Whether temporary or not defense attorney's love to throw a shadow of doubt on these types of crimes, because how could a sane person do such a thing. So they play on our sense of fairness, or lack thereof on how a mentally ill person is not responsible for their acts.

If I was able to change 2 elements of our penal code or defense tactics they would be that the mental condition at the time of the alledged crime is irrelevent and your upbringing in life and life surroundings were also immaterial. Hardnosed, possibly. Fair, definitely. Everyone has choices in life and we can all find a way to walk away from a bad situation if we try hard enough. Mental illness is to convenient of an excuse. Defense phychiatrists always find the clients disturbed and and the other side finds them without any mental illness, or at least they know what they have done and right from wrong.

So find Karr guiltyand give him life in prison. I would normally state that he be excuted but this would be worse, a child sex killer who wishes he was a female. "Oh he will be fine" Finally the Karr family does not profit from the circus this is about to become.
