Colorado governor decides against
special prosecutor in Ramsey slaying
DENVER (AP) — Gov. Bill
Owens said yesterday he has de
cided not to appoint a special pros
ecutor to look into the JonBenet
Ramsey slaying, saying police are
working with new evidence and
headed in the right direction.
Owens also had strong words for
the little girl’s parents, John and
Patsy Ramsey, asking them to “stop
hiding behind their attorneys” and
return to Colorado to help authori
ties solve the case.
“To the killers, let me say this:
You only think you have gotten
away with murder,” Owens said.
“There is strong evidence to suggest
who you are.
“I think investigators are moving
closer to proving their case. They
will keep pursuing you. You will
reap what you have sown.”
The Ramseys, who moved to the
Atlanta area after the killing, have
insisted they are innocent.
Denver legal analyst Andrew Co
hen said the governor’s references
to the killers was the strongest ac
cusation yet against the Ramseys.
He called it a “cheap shot.”
“1 don’t think anyone, even a
governor, should be allowed to ac
cuse people of doing something,
which they have a constitutional
right to do, which is hide behind
their lawyers,” Cohen said.
Two weeks ago, a Boulder Coun
ty grand jury completed a 13-
month investigation of the 1996
slaying without issuing any indict
ments.
District Attorney Alex Hunter
said there was not enough evidence
to charge anyone, although he and
police said the Ramseys remain un
der suspicion.
'7 think investigators
are moving closer to
proving their case/'
— Bill Owens
Colorado governor
Owens also asked a seven-mem
ber task force to recommend
whether a special prosecutor should
be appointed.
The group was made up of a for
mer Colorado Supreme Court chief
justice; Owens’ chief legal counsel;
a deputy attorney general and four
district attorneys.
Owens said Tuesday he had de
cided investigators were on the
right track and were analyzing
“substantial new evidence.”
Owens acknowledged initial
mistakes harmed the probe. Critics
have claimed the investigation was
compromised when detectives al
lowed the Ramseys and friends to
roam through their mansion in
Boulder.
“The conduct of the initial Ram
sey investigation was far from per
fect,” Owens said. “There can be lit
tle doubt that the Ramsey case will
be harder to prove in court because
of the initial mistakes.”
He added: “The killers in the
case made some very serious mis
takes, but they’re also very smart.
They have stonewalled very effec
tively, and they have covered their
tracks well.”
Early on Dec. 26, 1996, Patsy
Ramsey told police she found a ran
som note demanding $118,000 for
her daughter’s safe return. Eight
hours later, JonBenet’s father said
he found his daughter’s body in the
basement.
The governor declined comment
on whether the Ramseys had a role
in their daughter’s death.
“If I could speak to John and Pat
sy Ramsey," he said, “I would tell
them to quit hiding behind their at
torneys, come back to Colorado and
work with investigators in this case,
no matter where that trail will
lead. ”
Hal Haddon, the Ramseys’
Boulder-based attorney, was in a
conference and not available for
comment.
2 stockbrokers found shot to death in New Jersey
COLTS NECK, N.J. (AP) — Two stockbrokers were
found shot to death at the estate where one lived with
his girlfriend, and authorities have few leads in what
they consider an execution.
“This is a definite ‘whodunit,’” Monmouth Coun
ty Prosecutor John Kaye said. “In the majority of homi
cides we have a pretty clear-cut idea, even if we can’t
prove who did it right away, we at least have a pretty
good idea who did it. This is very different.”
Police called to the house early Thesday found
Alan Chalem, 41, and Mayir Lehmann, 37, shot to
death in the foyer, their cellular telephones inches
from their hands.
Chalem lived on the 16-acre property with his girl
friend, Kimberly Scarola, and her 13-year-old son.
Lehmann lived in Woodmere, N.Y.
Both were stockbrokers who sold penny stocks
through a Website called www.stockinvestor.com, but
Kaye did not know whether their profession had any
thing to do with their deaths.
“I don’t know, but there was no burglary involved,”
Kaye said. “That was never a thought. This was an ex
ecution. Reasons, we’re not certain yet.”
Kaye said two workmen who were friends with
Chalem called police at about 1 a.m. Tliesday after ar
riving to spend the night. The men had been calling
the house, where Chalem and Lehmann operated their
business, since Monday evening, but no one had an
swered, Kaye said.
Lehmann had been shot once in the back of the head,
while Chalem had been shot repeatedly, Kaye said.
Cellphones were found inches from both victims’
hands, Kaye said. Investigators have checked what
calls were made from the phones, but Kaye would not
release that information.
The home in this community of 8,500, about 10
miles northwest of Asbury Park belongs to Russell
Candela of Brooklyn and Easthampton, N.Y., the fa
ther of Chalem’s girlfriend.
Scarola had gone to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., several
days before the bodies were bund. Her son, Jeffrey,
was with her ex-husband, Kaye said.
Chalem had been living in the home for seven or
eight months, Kaye said.
Chalem formerly was a trader in Chicago and was
named one of the city’s top 25 commodities brokers
in 1990 by Crain’s, a business journal.

Harvard scientists receive
booby-trapped letters
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) — Six Harvard Uni
versity scientists have received threatening let
ters booby-trapped with razor blades and were
allegedly sent by a group of animal-rights ex
tremists. Scientists working elsewhere across
the country also have been targeted.
A communique posted on a Website belong
ing to an organization calling itself the “Justice
Department” was forwarded during the week
end by a group that monitors such extremists,
police said.
It contained a list of about 80 researchers
scattered across the country who do work with
primates, police said. The targeted scientists
work at such schools as Emory University in At
lanta, the University of California, the Universi
ty of Washington and Tulane University in New
Orleans.
At Emory University, researchers have re
ceived “several packages” similar to those re
ceived at Harvard, Kate Egan, spokesperson for
the Yerkes Primate Research Center, said. She
would not give a specific number.
The letters refer to the use of primates for
laboratory tests and disease research.
The “Justice Department” organization has
carried out similar mail attacks in Britain and
Canada.
