Good day Monkeys
(I hope)
I'v been attempting to find a video / transcript from around June 9, 2005.
Seems like I heard of a clip showing when JVDS was arrested.
I'm just trying to figure out what time of day it was and IF they did any search of the property that day.. I know they did a search on the 15th and that is when the cars were impounded.
TIA
Three More Aruba Suspects ArrestedThursday, June 09, 2005

ORANJESTAD, Aruba — FOX News has learned that three more men have been arrested in Aruba in connection with the disappearance of American tourist Natalee Holloway — the same three young men who were previously questioned as witnesses in the case.
Carla Caccavale, a Holloway family spokesperson, told FOX that Aruban authorities had informed them of the arrests.
Aruban police confirmed the arrests, saying the three men had been picked up at about 5:30 a.m. and that their residences were being searched.One of the men, a Dutch citizen whose father is said to be a prominent official in the Aruban justice system, may have been romantically involved with the 18-year-old Alabaman the night she disappeared.
Chris Lejuez, court-appointed defense attorney for one of the two men previously arrested in the Holloway case, told FOX News that he and his colleague Noraina Pietersz had been given witness statements from only two of the three men — those of the Surinamese citizens, but not the Dutchman.
Lejuez said the two Surinamese told police that the Dutchman had become intimate with Holloway at the California Lighthouse beach before they dropped her off at her hotel.
According to the attorney, the two told police Holloway had been drinking heavily and was drunk, and then when she got out of their car in front of the Holiday Inn, she stumbled and fell to the ground.
When one tried to help her up, she pushed him away and said "I can stand on my own!"
They say she then headed towards the lobby, and a black man in black pants and a black t-shirt escorted her inside.
The tape from the Holiday Inn lobby camera was reportedly checked by police but no images of Natalee were found, and the attorney says the security guard on duty from midnight on told authorities he never saw Natalee enter the hotel that night.
On Wednesday, a judge ruled that authorities had enough evidence to hold two former security guards in connection with Holloway's disappearance.
At least one of the suspects, 28-year-old Abraham Jones, appeared in court in Aruba Wednesday morning. The other was identified as 30-year-old Mickey John.
Neither man has been charged with a crime, but both were being held on suspicion of first- and second-degree murder and capital kidnapping, the latter of which is invoked when a kidnapping victim is killed, according to their lawyers, Pietersz and Lejuez.
"They have told me that according to police they fit the description of the last two people who were seen with Natalee," Lejuez told FOX News.
Authorities may hold suspects John and Jones without filing formal charges for up to 116 days, lawyers said. The two men were arrested Sunday on the southwestern tip of Aruba in the May 30 disappearance of 18-year-old Holloway.
The two are Aruban citizens, though one is originally from Grenada, Lejuez said.
Judge J.S. Kuiperdal will review the case June 15 and every eight days after that if needed, officials said.
Both suspects have said they were nowhere near the blonde honors student's hotel on the Caribbean resort destination the night she vanished — so far without a trace. They deny any connection to Holloway.
In an interview after the hearing, Pietersz said prosecutors asked that the defendants be kept in jail at least until June 15, when they hope to conclude their investigation.
Vivian Van Der Biezan, spokeswoman for the attorney general's office, said investigators must come up with some evidence to hold the suspects beyond that date.
Der Biezan also said she would check into whether Dutch law allows a charge of murder if no body is found. Investigators "cannot exclude the possibility of a criminal act because of the days that have passed."
Under Aruban law, only serious suspicion from investigators — not solid evidence — is needed for a judge to rule that suspects can be held, Pietersz said.
"I do believe my client is innocent, that's all I can tell you," she added.
Jones' mother told FOX News outside the courtroom that her son was at home sick the night in question. She also said she thought her son and the other man in custody were being framed.
Cynthia Rosalie Jones, 64, added that the only way her son knew about Holloway was from seeing the news on television.
"They have my son there for something he knows nothing about," Jones said emphatically. "My son is innocent."
Jones' wife, Cynthia De Graaf, said she and her husband were together continuously on May 29 and May 30, the day Holloway was last seen.
"He was home. He was even sick," De Graaf said, breaking down in tears as she waited outside the courthouse for the hearing to start. "They ruined everything. My daughter has been asking for her father."
I believe this is when Deepak's car was impounded
