Excelsior/Regents - Ramsey/Karr Connection - ShotoJuku - 08-19-2006
[SIZE="3"][COLOR="Navy"]I saw something a little creepy this morning on CNN regarding the JonBenet Ramsey murder and currect suspect John Karr. During the report a former Secret Service agent was doing a handwriting analysis of an employment application that Karr had prepared in Thailand and the note found at the crime scene in the Ramsey house.
Here's the connection: The line that was shown from the employment application for analysis was "REGENTS COLLEGE, ALBANY, NY - BACHELOR OF SCIENCE."
Excelsior was formerly known as Regents up until just a few years ago. Kind of creepy to think that this wacko went down a similar (educational) path as many of us are today. Let's just hope that's where the similarities end!!![/COLOR][/SIZE]

I just confirmed it. I found his resume by doing a Google search. It used to be on Jobs4Teachers.com (they have removed it) but I could see the Google cache of that page and it had his picture.
Since there have been somewhere close to 100,000 graduates of Excelsior, (I think I read that somewhere) there is bound to be one or two morally despicable people as graduates.

I don't think anyone in their right mind would correlate this guy's behavior with the school he graduated from.
If that's the case, I can think of some Harvard graduates who have recently proven themselves to have questionable morals and ethics; and a complete lack of wisdom, common sense, and social grace.
In fact, there are MANY Ivy League graduates who now reside indefinitely in an 8x8 cell under the auspices of the U.S. Prison Service.
Criminal behavior reflects badly on the criminal, not on their Alma Mater.
Unless of course, they really did graduate with a degree in "Practical Corruption, Anti-social Behavior, and Crime Skills".
