Un-Marked Karr

John Mark Karr is now a free man.

Karr, 41, is the delusional pervy nutcase who won international notoriety when he claimed to be responsible for the death of JonBenet Ramsey ten years ago. This bought him a ticket from Thailand, where he lived at the time and was arrested, to the States, but ultimately he was cleared of the charges.

He was then sent to California to face child pornography charges, but Judge Rene Chouteau ordered him released after prosecutors, according to media reports, acknowledged that they didn't have enough evidence to make their case.

What I want to know is: what the hell does this guy do now?

He has international fame as one of the ickiest guys on the planet -- how is he going to get a job? Who would hire him? Would you?

I mean, former GOP Congressman Mark Foley could always make a living in gay porn once he gets out of rehab, but an accused pedophile who falsely confessed to an infamous child murder would seem to be beyond the pale entirely. Returning to the teaching profession would seem to be a non-starter, and what else can he do? Would you buy a triple latte from this man?

I hope the media keeps up with this guy's story, because I think that what happens to him from now on might be as interesting if not more so than what has gone before.
