Here is the interview (sic) with the guy. He should go to prison for just being a sorry bast**d!

why does this guy remind me of john mark karr? (the nutjob who said he killed jonbenet ramsey).

Me too! Unless they have something concrete on him, like dna, then I think they have the wrong guy. Most of the girls werent sexually assaulted. Maybe they were killed because he couldnt get it up? Something just smells 'hinky' about this one.

Well let's all hope that this guy is the right person, and if not that this scumbag is captured ASAP!!

Creep for sure, he could be the killer he may have dual personalitites they just need to question him till #2 shows up. There could be 2 people involved in this.

He is way to familiar with the girls not to know what happened and if not him he should be able to tell who might have done it. My gut says he maybe the one and is just a flippin psycho.

They have a few suspects! Any one of them would be capable. Heres a quick run down!

He'll get what's coming to him in prison, that's for sure.

Given that he's known to several of the working girls in the area and several of them have said it cannot be him - he wouldn't be capable of murder, it sounds as though you might well be right.

Tom Stephens claims to have been acquainted, as I understand it, with two of the victims. I assume that each had acquaintances and that some would be common to both. It seems quite possible that he did in fact know them.

Your John Karr didn't, as far as I know, know the person he claimed to kill at all. Tom Stephens hasn't suggested to anyone that he's a murderer. So why does "this guy" remind you of John Karr? Where are the similarities?

Second arrest in murders inquiry

Detectives investigating the murders of five prostitutes in Suffolk arrest a second suspect. .................to answer you spot, my feeling derives from his apparent attention-seeking demeanor......... note, to date he has been detained, but not charged.

lady cop;490911 wrote: to answer you spot, my feeling derives from his apparent attention-seeking demeanor......... note, to date he has been detained, but not charged.If two acquaintances of anyone were murdered, it seems natural to me that commenting on it when asked to would be a natural response. I don't see that he's displayed any undue "attention-seeking demeanor" or that it's "apparent" that he has. He was approached by reporters and he told them what he knew, he's not revelled in notorious self-publicity.

The press eats people alive, especially people with no prior exposure to their ways. Blackening Tom Stephens by comparing his behaviour with that of John Karr is underhand and shoddy, given that there's no aspect of the one which corresponds with that of the other. Tom Stephens hasn't suggested to anyone that he's a murderer. Neither has he sought out publicity.

He's going to have enough of a rough time when he's released as it is, without hobbyists unloading unfounded prejudicial speculation on his shoulders.

Just my opinion.Amen!

Suffolk killer - second man arrested Times online this morning.

It comes with the terratory - and not just over the net.

Anyone you talk to, on-line or in real life, could be a psyco. Getting to know them over a period of time is the only defense and even that is no certanty.

The up-side is that they are few and far between.

SnoozeControl;490943 wrote: I didn't actually say that, did I? I think it was more a comment on my neurotic fear that someone I've chatted casually with online could be a very disturbed person.

But as BM said, that's true in a face to face encounter too.


I didn't say you said it, I asked whether you thought it. You might be taken to have at least implied it by associating his having a Myspace account with your expressed fear.

Let's hope that one of the two in police custody is in fact the murderer.

My interest in this is that part of my family lived just out of Ispwich and I've spent time there. And Pinky's there. Too close to home.

The first guy arrested has been released on Police bail. The second has been charged with all 5 murders

I know you have been in law enforcement for a long time, and would certainly out-qualify me in knowing about crime, so I ask with all sincerity, doesn't that contradict the theory that alot of deranged sociopathic killers have originated from quiet unpredictable lifestyles?

I just read the new about this arrest have they said why they think he is there guy??? No mention of it in the article I read..:-3

Man charged with Suffolk murders

I think that in such instances, basic human instinct is not given the credit it deserves...It's easy to assume someone is not crazy, but you can't help but to be ever so cautious when it comes to someone you feel is just plain weird coming from a feeling you have deep down inside that you just cannot deny. At least that's the way I am...I am a very keen person...

Man remanded over Suffolk murders

A 48-year-old man appears in court charged with murdering five women found dead near Ipswich.

Unlike John Carr, he was approached by reporters and he told them what he knew, he's not revelled in notorious self-publicity. I'm still not sure whether you think he deserves to have his life turned upside down by these events, or whether your comparison with John Carr was warranted.

lady cop;493340 wrote: my opinion is this....nobody escalates to murder until they have done other crimes. this will be a guy known to police for other stuff.You'll remember that we discussed Thomas Ashby earlier this month after he killed five people within a week. Did he have a history of other crimes? Was he "known to police"? The Jacksonville Metro says, for example:His boss, Mike Maynard, said Tuesday that no problems came up on a criminal background check and he said when he was hired through an employment agency that he had Air Force experience. Maynard said Ashby was a quiet guy who kept a low profile and worked loading and unloading bulk cargo, but he never showed up for work Sept. 21.

your agenda to discredit me is sooooooo obvious. :wah:

How on earth could you be discredited? You're the forum expert on these matters. I disagree with you viscerally on many issues but I'm not out to discredit you. Are you at all discreditable?

Meanwhile, for no good reason that I can see, you're ignoring what I consider to be reasonable questions about what you've said here.

So this guy who's been released on Police bail......what exactly does that mean? Could he have been involved in some way but still be released?...or is he probably innocent?

Being arrested or being released counts neither way. Being charged is the only indication that the police think they have their man. Being convicted is the only test of whether they're right or not, that's the difference between innocent or guilty.

No more girls have been killed as of yet. I think they must have something concrete like dna or they wouldnt have charged him. This is too high profile of a case. The one girl was 3 months pregnant. I think they should have charged him with 6 murders instead of 5.

I hope this is the guy before another girl gets killed. I'm eager to hear the evidence against him.

Yeah, me too Carla! But they are very careful here to protect the accuseds right to a fair trial. So we wont hear much until there is a conviction or aquittal.

Dang I hope there would be some leaks to the press, that's how we get all our details over hear..

LOL! Yeah but you must remember this place is about the size of your average state. They cant change venues as easily. And this is already big national press over here.

Bummer I want to know why they are so sure this is their man...:-5

As always seems to be the case, those interviewed who knows him say "he was a quiet guy, kept to himself" LOL!

Exactly. I heard that as well. And if the guy did it, we want him put away. Cant have the scum get out on a technicality.

And if he's found innocent by considering the evidence, the scum will get out on the basis of fairly applied justice?
