Guandeque fled the scene of the crime, leaving the radio beside his victim.
On July 1, 2001, he attacked another female jogger at approximately 7:30 p.m., running up behind her as she reached the crest of a hill and grabbing her from behind.
The woman struggled, and when Guandeque loosened his grip on her she managed to get away and report the incident to the U.S. Park Police, who located Guandeque and arrested him.
Guandeque denied many of the details provided by the victim, but admitted to grabbing the victim in an effort to steal her Sony Walkman.
At Guandeque's sentencing, D.C. Superior Court Judge Noel Kramer called the matter an "odd case" and said Guandeque's crimes did not resemble merely simple robberies, according to the press release.
The judge called Guandeque's behavior "predatory" and noted that he had sought out physical confrontations with his victims, spent a good deal of time following them through the park and never took any property, suggesting he was extremely dangerous.

Washington, D.C. - United States Attorney Roscoe C. Howard, Jr. announced that Ingmar Guandeque, 20, of the 1400 block of Somerset Place, N.W., was sentenced today before Superior Court Judge Noel A. Kramer to two concurrent terms of ten years' imprisonment for two separate assaults against female joggers in Rock Creek Park. Guandeque pled guilty in September of last year to two counts of Assault with Intent to Commit Robbery.
The sentences arose from two incidents in which Guandeque attacked two women in Rock Creek Park. On May 14, 2001, at approximately 6:30 pm, a female was jogging in Rock Creek Park in the District of Columbia. Guandeque began running behind her and grabbed her in an effort to steal her yellow Sony walk-man with headphones. The victim reported that he brandished a silver knife with a black handle, that he grabbed her around the neck, and that eventually he pulled her to the ground where her walk-man and headphones fell off. The victim also reported that Guandeque bit her when she pushed his face with her hand. Guandeque denied many of these details, but acknowledged grabbing and restraining the victim in an effort to obtain the walk-man. Guandeque fled the scene due to his fear of being detected, and the walkman was left behind along side the victim.
On July 1, 2001, at approximately 7:30 pm, a female was jogging in Rock Creek park in the District of Columbia. Guandeque began running behind her and as she reached the crest of a hill, he grabbed her from behind. This victim reported that he pulled her off the trail and the two rolled down the hill into a ravine. She also reported that he held a knife to her chin, covered her mouth because she was screaming, and told her to be quiet. She reported that she continued to struggle and ran from Guandeque when she felt him begin to relax his grip. Guandeque denied many of these details although he acknowledged that he grabbed the victim in an effort to steal her Sony Walk-man and that they both fell into the ravine. The victim immediately reported the incident to the U.S.Park Police who were able to locate Guandeque and arrest him after he was identified by a witness.
In pronouncing sentence, Judge Kramer characterized this as an "odd case." She remarked that she had presided over numerous robbery trials and that this case did not resemble simple robberies. Instead, Judge Kramer characterized Guandeque's behavior as "predatory." She stated that the fact that he sought out physical confrontations with his victims, spent a good deal of time following them through the park, and never took any property suggested that he was extremely dangerous.
In announcing the result of this prosecution, United States Attorney Howard praised the efforts of the United States Park Police Detective Joseph Greene. United States Attorney Howard also praised the efforts of Assistant United States Attorney Kristina L. Ament, who prosecuted the case, and paralegal Christopher A. Angell and Robyn E. Cantor who assisted throughout the investigation.
A word to the wise.
She got on the website because she was going to meet someone there. She went there with a purpose.
Then one could expect to see knife markings on the bones if Chandra were stabbed to death. If her throat has been slit, one would expect a lot of blood. Actually, either way, there should be blood on her clothing and I thought Ramsey said that there was NO BLOOD on the clothing.
Somebody PLEASE find a Condit/Levy death timeline...I did a FreepSearch and turned up nothing.
I think it is critical that this come up again into the public eye. FreeRepublic is HIGHLY influential among talk show hosts who, at the moment, have the ear of a substantial part of influential Americans.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!

2. However, using Occam's Razor the most likely explanation is Chandra Levy was the victim of a deranged predator. Perhaps she put up a tremendous struggle and he either stabbed her or strangled her to stop her from struggling or screaming. During his later attacks he may have purposely refrained from killing in an attempt to divorce himself from the Levy killing since he knew that should he be caught the body was close by.
3. I'd love to see this moron (Condit) hang, but I'm afraid it's only wishful thinking at this point.
Did this "predator" use a car in the two assaults or did he walk to the park from his home? He lived about one block east of the park.
I question this because the body site location is not near a "jogging trail" and would appear to me to be just a drop site, after killing her somewhere else.
From the description of the body site, it was uphill from the road and was some distance from a "jogging trail". How far up the hill was it? Could a single person have dragged a body up the hill without leaving lots of evidence - crushed bushes and grass/weeds?
