He might not be a celebrity per se, but John Mark Karr certainly made headlines after his shocking confession to accidentally killing Jon Benet Ramsey ten years ago.

...Koreas and China and the Middle East - and was almost surely what provoked Sen. Hillary Clinton to step in Tuesday and counter-slap Rice. Sen. Clinton said her husband would not have sat on his hands if he had seen, as Bush did, an intelligence estimate in August 2001 suggesting that bin Laden might try to run some jetliners into skyscrapers...
