sees ANGELES -- Wining and dining at 35000 feet gave way Monday to a cramped jail solitary abode; squalid a metal cot and bologna sandwiches as John Mark Karr awaited a hearing to determine when he will be sent to Colorado to face charges in the slaying of 6-year-old JonBenet Ramsey.

Karr, who was brought back to the United States late Sunday night in succession a 15-hour business-class flight from Thailand, was immediately grappleed up in a high-security jail solitary abode; squalid to await an extradition hearing this morning.

Karr may waive extradition and agree to journey immediately to Colorado, but if he decides to fight the put in motion prosecutors say it could take a hardly any days before he is cleared to go on

"What we're really focusing forward is getting him back to Colorado and getting [i]or[/i] part of to the other that first appearance and going from there," said Boulder shire district attorney's spokeswoman Carolyn French

Colorado's warrant has remained sealed, and little is publicly known about what evidence Boulder officials may have upon Karr.

The 41-year-old teacher has told reporters he was with JonBenet when she died in the basement of her Boulder to one's home on Dec. 26, 1996, and it was an accident.

French would not make notes on whether Karr gave up any more information about the case during the protracted flight from Bangkok, on which he was serv courses of fried king prawns, roast dive champagne, beer and wine.
