You Can Cross This One Off The List.

Lindbergh Baby
Amelia Earhart
Hoffa's Body
JFK assassination facts
JonBenet's Killer

I have long grouped the Ramsey Mystery in the same bag as all the other stories the American Public has been consumed with.

We could never get enough about the little girl dressed up to look like a 30 year old, complete with the false eyelashes and massive hairpieces.

Well, you can just about close the history book on this one. A former teacher faces charges after authorities arrested him in Bangkok, Thailand after he confessed in the murder mystery that has gripped the nation for a decade.

American John Mark Karr says he's sorry for what happened, and that the girl's death was an accident, claiming she died in a botched kidnapping attempt.

Investigators are still unsure how this effin' bastard knew the Ramseys, though he apparently lived near them when they resided in an Atlanta suburb in the early 90s.

All I want to know is this:

How could this schmuck walk the earth for 10 years, even after the massive scrutiny cast a shadow of a doubt regarding JonBenet's parents' innocence? How could he live with himself, knowing he was a free man when Patsy Ramsey died in June of ovarian cancer, not knowing who killed her child? How could this a**hole live with himself, knowing he held the key to a major crime case that has baffled police for a decade?

Throw the book at 'em.

10:16 am update
In an exclusive interview with The Associated Press, John Mark Karr said that he contacted JonBenet's mother, Patsy, before she died of cancer in June to express his remorse for the killing.

If you've looked at my profile lately, you might have noticed the return of "The Waistline Chronicles."

I just breathed some life into that blog with a brand spankin' new post.

I'm starting to shrink again and I thought I'd talk about it.
