8 years of ON THE RECORD at 10pm!

We tried to get to the bottom of the disapperance of American teen Natalee Holloway (and yes, believe it or not, I am still working the story.)  ON THE RECORD at 10pm went to Aruba many times...as I look back at the 8 years of ON THE RECORD at 10pm, here are some pics from Aruba:

(UPDATE: I just removed the big smiling picture of Joran....I could not resize it and I don't see why he is smiling)

Good to hear you are still working on this case.

The Kalpoes just got outed for trying to scam their way out of coming to the US for their depositions. They turned in shoddy visa applications two times and then tried to tell the court that wanted to come but their visa's were denied. They obviously thought they would never have to go under oath and it would just be settled and they would get a big fat check. WRONG! What are those liars really afraid of? Afraid to go under oath and have to answer to what really happened to Natalee?

Some day we will get the answers to what happened to Natalee.

This story still disturbs me. You, out of all the journalist that covered this story, went the extra mile to try and find out the truth. I think that is when I really came to admire you, Greta. That poor monkey...he/she shouldn't be in a cage:-(

I am glad you have not given up on this case. I suspect you will be rewarded in your tenacity some day, but it is one that definitely still intrigues many of us. Thanks for your perseverance.

That monkey knows something. By the way, you're looking spiffy.

Debra-Reno
A couple weeks ago I saw Natalee's story on TLC. There were several shots of Greta. They also showed the van der Sloot home and I wondered if the monkey is still alive. I stopped watching Greta's show mid 2008 when it was obvious Fox had gone totally political. I feel she has let down the families of Natalee, Kathleen Schiavo, Stacy Peterson, and Caylee because their stories need to be kept in the news so that an answer to what really happened can be found. Greta & the legal panel used to ROCK.

January 31, 2010 at 11:35 am

Bruce D.
We appreciate your effort there Greta. It breaks your heart to to think of your daughter going to an island paradise on vacation and someone kills her and her body is never found.

Is there an update on the Kalpoe case against Dr. Phil? When are those Kalpoes coming to the US for their depositions?January 31, 2010 at 11:11 am

Concerned
I'm so glad to hear you are still working on this case, Greta. I think about Natalee often and know the answer is there somewhere. I hope we learn the truth some day.

Monkey Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2007 750ml

Monkey Bay Sauvignon Blanc is a charming, elegant wine, displaying intense varietal character. Ripe, zesty flavours of grapefruit, kiwi and pineapple are overlaid with fresh cut grass. Finishing crisp and refreshing, the palate balances intense fruit qual

I think that is a very apt description of the Monkeys!

A REMINDER


ARUBAN CHIEF OF POLICE - GEROLD DOMPIG

Gerold Dompig’s official position within the Natalee Holloway investigation dictates his words were not devried from a vacuum.  There had to have been a foundation of inside knowledge.
_________

'Rita Cosby Live & Direct'

GEROLD DOMPIG: I still believe that these boys have been lying, they're still lying, and everybody knows that by now. So there's no doubt in my mind that they know something, they're guilty of something.
 
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12187266/


'Rita Cosby Live & Direct'

RITA COSBY: Do you believe, Chief—you said to me even before this interview that you believe the boys are guilty as hell. Do you believe they‘re involved in her disappearance?
GEROLD DOMPIG: Yes.

http://msnbc.msn.com/id/9910586/from/RL.3/


'Rita Cosby Live & Direct'

GEROLD DOMPIG: Joran went back and forth with his statements, and he withdrew two statements which he had already given to us. So basically, none of his statements were really trustworthy.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9727957/


'Abrams Report'

GEROLD DOMPIG: Well, it would take me, I think, a little over two days to go over all the inconsistencies. None of the stories match up, let me put it that way. So when it comes to believing this individual, we know in which category to place him.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9676188


'The Abrams Report'

GEROLD DOMPIG: I go by the rule of thumb that, in the first 40 days -- as I said in a different program -- the first 40 days, law enforcement has probably also already spoken to the perpetrators. So we feel strongly that we have already spoken to them. And there's no one else outside this group that could be involved or responsible.
 
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9676188/page/2/


'The Abrams Report'

GEROLD DOMPIG: So sometimes people will ask us that, "Are you not tunnel-visioned? Maybe you should look at other possibilities." Of course. We did that. But we still feel that, every time you go on a path, a different path, that path leads back, comes back to these three boys.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9676188/page/2/


48 Hours Mystery

Dompig says he believes Paulus Van der Sloot does know more than he has been telling about the circumstances surrounding Holloway's disappearance.

OFFICIAL SPOKESPERSON - STEVE COHEN

Steve Cohen's official position within the Natalee Holloway investigation dictates his words were not devried from a vacuum.  There had to have been a foundation of inside knowledge.

++++++++++

ARUBA TRUTH - December 7, 2005

A coalition of groups announced Friday the appointment of Steve Cohen to act as spokesperson to North American media, in regards to the Natalee Holloway disappearance case.

Mr. Cohen has been part of the Strategic Communications Task Force since its creation in June. He has a full knowledge of the case ....


CARIBBEAN VOICE - January 18, 2006

If current findings are true, Cohen said they are going to accelerate their efforts. Extensive search for forensic evidence continues. Yesterday, 50 members of the Aruban police department searched extensively through the dune by the lighthouse in search for clues. "Anything DNA that is identified to be of Natalee's will allow us to bring a strong case forward against the three boys. We are also getting to finally talk to some of the Alabama teens who left on that plane and did not wait around for interrogation," said Cohen.

Aruba believes it is most important to get a hold of her mental state and most importantly, Natalee's physical state at the time of disappearance.  "Two of the boys said they had consensual sex with her. Whether consensual or not, depends on her ability to be conscious and make a choice," said Cohen …


DR. PHIL SHOW - January 29, 2006

"Did you say to them these boys were going to be brought in within 10 days and re-interrogated?" Dr. Phil asks.

"Yes, I did," he (Steve Cohen) replies. "But I also knew that the prosecutor had a choice to make." He says the choice was whether or not to reveal new evidence right away, if waiting meant a better chance of getting a conviction later. ...

Steve explains, "Forensic materials continue to be collected. I think we've got our hands on some forensic material now that may actually open up the doors to the final results of this case."  ...

Not sure if this is any better, but here's the Google Spanish translation:

persistent rumor:

Owing to government withdraws sra. Owing to Eckmeyer and named after Jan van der Straten at his place

Jan van der Straten kico know of Culture of aruba?

sta. cross - Government of dicidi for avp Owing to remove the director of culture, Mrs. Eckmeyer. hour cu much Owing to think maybe this have of having ea sra. Owing to work much Eckmeyer year at the corsou and maybe cu can not directed the department of culture, now is it cu Owing to government named after Jan van der Straten because; director of department of culture. instant at first seems this is one of is 1 April joke, however month of April is far enough. Owing to eat it then cu do not one joke, but one particular mature. sr. v / d Straten will apparently named after Owing to stay for bay directed culture of Aruba. the decisionnan here do not seems of is will normally, but we is wait for another week cu Admit government can or will belied.

(My interpretation)   

The rumor is that Eckmeyer is retiring as Director of the Department of Culture in Aruba and Jan Van der Straaten will take her place.

I think the author is also questioning how much Van der Straaten knows about the Culture of Aruba...and says it seems like an April Fool's joke.

Minister Mike Eman and his messenger arrives at the Government Office for the press conference on the first one hundred days of his cabinet. Further on is State Secretary Ank Bijleveld the office of the Governor, which she had a conversation.


ORANGE CITY - The government Mike Eman I celebrates the first one hundred days in government. During a press conference at the entrance of the Government Office, Prime Minister Mike Eman (AVP), with members of his cabinet behind him, he is proud of what the first one hundred days is reached.

"The past 100 days we have proved we can shift the focus of a small group of people and political appointments for maximum attention to people who have less to do in our country." Eman pointed to the halving of the PDO, the increase under the state with 25 percent supplement for school children within families stand to 100 florin per child is increased, the reopening of the Government Office, the closing reception and help the addicts, the renovation plans for downtown Oranjestad and San Nicolas and the return of strategic KLM and partners such as Carnival Cruises. Relationships with partners within the Kingdom have significantly improved, says Eman. "We work together with Dutch and Dutch Prime Ministers give consideration to situations in the Aruba, the refinery up to the airline."

Purchasing power
The Prime Minister during the press conference was the criticism that, despite the halving of the PDO, there is little to note of lower prices for consumers. "There are definitely some price reductions on products including gasoline," said the premier. He points out that once the government "one million hungry" measures of the previous government has reversed, there will be more room for the people, especially people with lower incomes, to be able to stand. The Minister of Economic Affairs, Social Affairs and Culture Michelle Winklaar (AVP) added to that currently being prepared for the responsibilities of auditors and Finance Foundation Board to impose fines for CAS during checks on prices in shops and supermarkets. Party members of the ruling party have two weeks ago, commissioned by the government at various supermarkets and mini markets purchases made with a specific shopping list for a four-headed families. Purpose of the purchases was to determine whether there is competition between the supermarkets.

Bijleveld
State Secretary of Kingdom Relations Ank Bijleveld-Schouten (CDA) is currently working visit to Aruba. "We have in the past one hundred days a lot of talk about cooperation," said the premier. This morning was Bijleveld-Schouten audience with Governor Refunjol, and together with the Representative of the Netherlands, Rob Vermaes, in the Board office spoke with Prime Minister Eman. Today between the two sides discussed the funding of the training project for disadvantaged young people in the marinierskazene Savaneta. It also discussed the development of a contingency plan for Aruba, in cooperation with the Netherlands. Tomorrow, the Minister for Infrastructure, Environment and Integration Benny Sevinger (AVP) a presentation on the renovation of the inner city of Oranjestad and San Nicolas. Aruba is also a confirmation on technical assistance in completing this project.

ARUBA

Quiet lights parade

February 8, 2010, 12:37 (GMT -04:00)



Participants of Dushi Carnival Group look beautiful with their bright and cheerful attire in the jungle theme.

ORANGE CITY - Despite the significantly lower turnout was the 56th Tivoli Lights Parade last Saturday night of a big party. The atmosphere there was good. Ten carnival groups and slightly more than two thousand participants were dancing, jumping and singing through the streets of Oranjestad. The parade began around eight hours in the Vondellaan Kooiman and walked towards the roundabout at Havana and via the LG Smith Boulevard to end after the bus station.

This year it also appeared along the lower side pressure than in previous years. It was fun but not print. From noon people were already there with their trailer for a drink while enjoying the carnival atmosphere and music down to taste. Around the clock six police closed off the parade route for traffic. Then began the "geparadeer. Hundreds if not thousands of people walked the route back and forth. The greetings of acquaintances, enjoying music, drinks, dinner or just watching and being watched, is one of the traditions of the carnival.

A little after nine, the first group, Los Laga Bai with the theme 'Ole Ole', near the gymnasium of Colegio Arubano. For unknown reasons, the parade stopped there and the revelers were still nearly one hours. A welcome break for some, but most participants was dying to go to parties and partying. After the unscheduled break, the parade continued. The delay was the parade behind schedule, allowing police officers by the end of the route groups for months to walk faster. Moreover agents were much easier this year by the public during the parade route jumped to take pictures or greet acquaintances.

Malicious
The police were clear and present in large numbers. Employees of Cuerpo Especial Arubano were present to assist the police. Unfortunately, the authorities could not prevent the party seized some people to do evil. The police reported that there were three stabbings Saturday night and some fights have occurred. A relatively large amount of weapons was seized, including knives, brass knuckles and scissors. For some people marijuana was also found and confiscated.
