THE RAMSEY CASE II . .

The Karr connection: The e-mail correspondence between homicide suspect John Mark Karr and University of Colorado journalism professor Michael Tracey that l to Karr's arrest has its foundations in an unusual meeting at the Shakespeare and Co bookstore in Paris.

"And when I said, 'Some think the parents, on the other hand others say an intruder,' he kind of had a little smile."
