Here is his resume and I know I saw this back when I was hiring
teachers. Even made a comment then that I thought it was a bit odd:

We can see what he thinks of himself in his objectives.

And look at the litany of opportunities he's had around children on several continents. Shocked There could be a deadly trail.

I vividly remember this guy's resume when I was screening applicants for a position at a university because I commented on how he worded his teaching experience in Germany and the Netherlands. I am fairly certain the email he sent with his resume specifically requested that any offer should include a round trip ticket from Honduras and not the US. I even joked that maybe he couldn't go back to the US because he was wanted or something.

well don't jump the gun just yet, perhaps.
Drudge report has a number of links that make this guy look just as much like a liar. His wife swears she was with him whole time. In 2001 told his father he was in prison for JonBenet killings. And look at those photos! Looks quite looney. Maybe just out for fame?

In any event lets hope the foreigner bashers and the MBC cells on these websites don't use and abuse this (as I can see has already been done once up above).

Germany: Two girls - 5 and 8; boy 10: I taught English to the children through conversational and instructional
methods. I awoke the children in the morning and gave them breakfast. I helped the children get ready for school
and escorted them to the school bus. I helped the 8 year old girl with her homework each day. I took the children
outside for play. At days end, I made sure the children had their evening bath, then put them to bed and read to
them before they went to sleep.


JESUS CHRIST!
wonder how the mother of these children are feeling today?
and the other ones he cared for.. JESUS!!!

If only the families of young children he was hired to take care of had asked for a criminal record check......or anywhere he worked for that matter! He'd have taken off pretty quickly and maybe someone would have cottoned on while holding his resume and called the police.
It seems he still used his real name fer crissakes!


They must be freaking out now.

Yeah really. His exwife, who you'd think would have no reason to lie, says he was with her in Alabama. This article says it was his emails:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060817/ts_nm/crime_jonbenet_dc_29

He seemed to know too much about the case, details ostensibly not made public. However, who is to say someone who isn't really, really into the case can't find out these details, especially if he's corresponding with someone who knows the details. The Denver post article says he was researching a book and seems to have talked to people very close to the case.

I dunno. I think it might turn out this guy is just a sick fan and this is his way of getting closer to the case.

That's exactly what his brother also said in a news article...

"Karr's brother, Nate Karr, told Fox News his brother moved to Alabama to live with his grandparents when he was about 12 and lived there until moving to California in approximately 2001 with his wife and three sons.

To the best of his knowledge, Nate Karr said, his brother has never lived in or been to Boulder. He also said John Karr didn't know the Ramsey family.

Nate Karr suspects his brother raised suspicion among law enforcement because he was researching a book about men who commit sex crimes against young girls, including JonBenet."
