...Karr's past does raise suspicions. When he was arrested in Bangkok, he was living in a dormitory-like guesthouse in a neighborhood frequented by sex tourists. Before that, in 2001, soon after he moved to California, the Sonoma county district attorney issued an arrest warrant for one John Mark Karr on five counts of child pornography, after the suspect failed to appear in court. (It isn't yet certain that warrant was for the same John Mark Karr, but it seems likely.) The name John Karr is also associated with the online domain PowerWurks.com, apparently launched in 1996, whose...
...judge ruled that the surveillance program violates the Constitution's Fourth Amendment because it allows officials to "search" people's phone calls unreasonably and without a warrant. But she didn't say how the searches are unreasonable. If they tap into an old-fashioned call between a couple in Peoria who rightly assume their conversation is private, that's one thing. It's quite another if the couple uses a cordless phone (because they shouldn't expect privacy) or if one person receives the call overseas (because he may not be covered by the Fourth Amendment). And some searches...
...world into some of his secrets. On Wednesday evening, the wan, sandy-haired one-time grade school teacher arrived at Bangkok's Suan Phlu immigration pen, to spend the night in a solitary cell. The day before, a judge in Boulder, Colorado, had issued an arrest warrant for Karr in the nearly decade-old murder of JonBenet Ramsey, the six-year-old child beauty pageant contestant. Soon after, a small group of plainclothes Thai and U.S. officers arrived at his shabby apartment, where Karr had stayed since arriving from Malaysia in June, on the latest of several trips in recent...
...Ross was a Warrant Machinist on the U.S.S. Nevada in Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, the day the Japanese bombed the American fleet and triggered World War II. Ross' valor, commemorated on homeofheroes.com, is the stuff of movie legend. (He did survive, regain his sight and marry his girlfriend.) But Hollywood didn't rush to make a stirring drama from his story, or from any aspect of that awful day in Hawaii (though the following year John Ford did direct a documentary, December 7th, that got limited release in theaters). Dec. 7, 1941, was a day that would live...
...With the road cut by the Israelis, Warrant Officer Martin Lionel, the convoy commander, studies his military map, seeking an alternative route to Teir Harfa. Many of the roads marked on his map show hand-drawn red crosses. He explains that they represent bomb craters where Israeli jets have rendered the road impassable. "Every day we add new crosses," he says...
