KUSA - 9NEWS has confirmed from two sources that the DNA taken from John Mark Karr does not match the DNA samples taken from the crime scene in the JonBenet Ramsey murder case.
JonBenet suspect scheduled to appear in court Monday
New Hampshire man claims to have seen Karr in Boulder
9NEWS Investigative Reporter Paula Woodward breaks the news that the DNA of John Mark Karr does not match the samples taken at the JonBenet Ramsey crime scene. August 28, 2006.
9NEWS has also confirmed from different sources that no charges will be filed against Karr in connection with the Ramsey case by the Boulder County District Attorney's office.
Samples of Karr's saliva and hair were taken in Boulder after his arrival on Thursday. Those samples were tested over the weekend inside the Denver Police Department's Crime lab.
9NEWS has confirmed that Karr's DNA is ruled out as the foreign DNA left on JonBenet Ramsey's body when she was murdered in December 1996.
JonBenet was covered in a blanket when her body was found. Foreign hair fibers were found on that blanket and they did not match any of the Ramsey family or approximately 100 people that were tested.
Karr was taken into custody in Bangkok, Thailand earlier this month in connection with the murder. He arrived in Boulder Thursday afternoon on a probable cause warrant for charges of first-degree murder, kidnapping and sexual assault on a child.
Karr said at a press conference in Thailand he was with JonBenet when she died.
Karr is scheduled to be in court Monday afternoon for an advisement hearing.
He still faces charges of child pornography in California.
