BOULDER, Colorado (AP) -- The Boulder District Attorney's office on Thursday said it spent $23,656 investigating John Mark Karr. The tab included nearly $6,000 for business class tickets to fly the former suspect in the JonBenet Ramsey case and an investigator back from Bangkok, Thailand.
An outline of expenses shows the 15-hour flight from Thailand, on which Karr sipped champagne, dined on fried king prawns and roast duck, cost the county $5,925.
A message left at District Attorney Mary Lacy's office was not immediately returned.
The second largest expense in the DA's investigation was $10,010 in hourly wages paid to investigator Mark Spray.
Karr was cleared last week in the 1996 murder of 6-year-old JonBenet Ramsey and remained jailed in Boulder, Colorado\, awaiting extradition to California to face child porn charges. A Boulder judge ruled last week that authorities had until Wednesday to return Karr to Sonoma County.
The prosecutor's office said it has spent $40,755 on the unsolved slaying since taking the case from Boulder police and reopening the investigation in December 2002.
The figure includes more than $16,000 spent in 2003, when Lacy endorsed a federal judge's declaration that an intruder, not JonBenet's parents, killed the child.
