Jossy Mansur, the managing editor of Diario also provided us with the following:

“Justice has a strange way of correcting irregularities committed in its name. In this particular case, Paul had the necessary information we needed to solve the case, but decided to take it with him to his tomb. His version (the true one) we will never know. And we can never depend on Joran to come clean with what happened to Natalee.

Yes, Paul died playing tennis yesterday afternoon. God forgive him

Crucial Natalee Holloway witness dies

Thursday 11 February 2010

Paul van der Sloot, father of the chief suspect in the disappearance of US teenager Natalee Holloway, is reported to have died on the island of Aruba at the age of 57.

The father of Joran van der Sloot, the teenager who was with Holloway on the night she vanished, collapsed during a game of tennis.

He is considered a crucial witness in the mysterious vanishing of Holloway, who went missing on the last night of a graduation class school trip to the Caribbean island in May 2005.

Joran van der Sloot has admitted being with Holloway on the beach the night she died. He told an undercover tv reporter that a friend had dumped her body at sea.

TV crime reporter Peter R de Vries, who has followed the case closely, says on his website he is convinced Paul van der Sloot helped his son in covering up the crime.

'I am personally convinced he knew more [about the case] and helped his son that night,' De Vries wrote. 'But he has now taken that secret to his grave.'

THE KNOT HAS COME LOOSE!! WILL THE CORDS UNRAVEL!!

Loving Natalee - Beth Holloway


Page 149: My arms rest on top of the investigation notebook I carry with me all the time. Natalee’s reward poster with her picture on it is inside the front clear cover, in plain view. Paulus’ arms are on the table. Our knuckles are only inches apart. His arms are shaking. His fists are clenched.

“You’re responsible for Aruba being trapped in hell,” I tell him, still calm. “You can change that. But Aruba will stay in a perpetual state of hell until you come forward.” …

Page 150-151: Pulling a couple of prayer bracelets out of my pocket. I offer them to the van der Sloots. First I tie one on Anita’s arm, then ask Paulus if he would like one. He lifts his clench-fisted arm, shaking as if he has Parkinson’s disease, and tries very hard to hold it up. What a pathetic form of a man he is, I think — a very different person from the one who stood so brazenly in his front yard in the wee hours that first morning facing down Aruban police and our men from home. I take my time tying the bracelet, very, very slowly, and explain the meaning of the three cords of yarn.

“Paulus, this bracelet stands for a Bible verse. It’s Ecclesiasties 4:12. “Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” I finish the tying and gently pat the knot. “There you go.”

And right then the bracelet looks different to me. I see the three cords as the suspects, and the knot at the end holding them together as Paulus. It’s not just clear — it’s crystal clear.  There are potentially four people who know what happened to Natalee.  We need the knot to come loose and the three cords to unravel.

THERE WAS NO CHANGE OF HEART

 ::MonkeyNoNo::

'Scarborough Country' - August 1, 2005

JOE SCARBOROUGH, HOST:  You know, I don‘t want to sound naive here, Dave, but how does that make you feel?  I mean, I can‘t imagine me instructing my son, if he were involved in something like this, on how to cover up a disappearance and a possible murder.  Just on a personal level, as a father, how does it make you feel, looking into the eyes of another father, of another 17- or 18-year-old who‘s got the information on where your daughter is tonight, possibly, and yet it seems like he‘s doing everything he can to hide that truth?

DAVE HOLLOWAY, NATALEE HOLLOWAY'S FATHER:  It‘s hard.  And you‘ve got to obey the law.  And that‘s one of the reasons I brought him some spiritual books to look at.  And maybe he‘ll have a change of heart.  It all comes down to morals. 

And one of the statements that I really remember, and it sinks in, is, he can understand my position as a father, but, as the father of Joran, he‘ll do anything to protect his son.  And I believe that he will, unless he has a change of heart.

Attorney Paul van der Sloot

ORANGE CITY - Attorney Paul van der Sloot was last night at the age of 57 deceased to a cardiac arrest. He played a game of tennis in the area of Tierra del Sol when he suddenly became ill and collapsed. Paramedics tried to resuscitate the lawyer yet. He was rushed to hospital, but the attempts were not late.

Van der Sloot was internationally known as the father of Joran, the prime suspect in the case of the disappearance of American teenager Natalee Holloway. She disappeared in May 2005. Van der Sloot has always denied that his son just had to do with the disappearance.

At that time, Paul van der Sloot judge in training. He was then himself suspected of obstructing the investigation into the disappearance of Holloway. This is the lawyer a few days spent in jail. He then stretched a lawsuit against the government because he thought that the arrest was unlawful and demanded compensation. That he won. Appeal that verdict was destroyed.

Dutch crime reporter Peter R. de Vries has a comment posted on his website in connection with the death of Van der Sloot. He calls the death "a considerable loss" for the Holloway case.

"Over the dead nothing but good, but I can nevertheless not to say that I am convinced that Van der Sloot's father his son has been helpful in covering up his secret." De Vries also intact on the search for the family, then to the amazement of police Ben King - then head of the Attorney-General Support Division - the door opened. King was a friend of the family. Paul van der Sloot was thus distrusted by the police in Aruba, says Dutch journalist.

The then chief Jan van der Street was also friends with Van der Sloot, claimed the former Justice Minister Rudy Croes. The Public Prosecutor (OM) launched an investigation into the role of Van der Straten in the Holloway case and which was recently completed.

About the impact of the death of Van der Sloot is still ongoing for the missing research, wild Peter Blanken Chief Prosecutor this morning nothing lost. "The investigation is ongoing, but I think it inappropriate to start now to begin." Initially he had the Amigoe know that Paul the OM is still seen as suspect. For further inquiries revealed that a note in the file on the head was seen. "I now expect the case for Paul was finished," said Whites.

Judas: “I have sinned in that I betrayed innocent blood.” then … Matt.27:3-5,”and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out”……..Paulus is now where he needed to be,,,in Hell with his brother Judas. He split Hell wide open before Joran got the word. A part of the van der Sloot debt is paid. Evil ends as evil does. I hope someone will now come forth with the truth…..and I do hear the sound of…tic,toc,tic,toc.

Paulus van der Sloot:  

Fox News  - June 24, 2005

Joran van der Sloot (search) and his friends Deepak and Satish Kalpoe are being held under suspicion of murder and kidnapping as well as being an accessory to murder.

A fourth man, party boat DJ Steve Croes, is being held under the same conditions.

The fifth man, Paul van der Sloot (search) — the father of 17-year-old Joran — was being held on suspicion of complicity to pre-meditated murder, complicity to kidnapping and murder and kidnapping.  Under the Aruban system, complicity is a lesser charge.

BETH HOLLOWAY TWITTY, MOTHER OF NATALEE HOLLOWAY: ... And, you know, what Jug and I had discussed last night was that, you know, we go back to the very beginning. And that‘s the reason why Paulus Van Der Sloot was arrested in connection with Natalee‘s disappearance, because he had lied to the authorities by saying that he had changed his pickup time.

Dutch Teen's Dad Arrested In Aruba


Joran, 17, and friends Deepak Kalpoe, 21, and Satish Kalpoe, 18, told police initially that they dropped off Natalee Holloway at the Holiday Inn where she was staying.

His mother insisted her husband had done nothing wrong and said Aruban authorities had arrested him because they were under pressure from the U.S. government and the news media to produce results.

"My husband is a man of integrity who has been working in the justice system 15 years and was taken without evidence," Anita van der Sloot said. "How can this happen? This is not about Natalee anymore. It's about enormous pressure from the [United] States and the media."

Interview immediately following Paulus van der Sloots release from detention.

++++++

Nova - June 28, 2005

Reporter (Twan Huys): On the day you were arrested, this past Thursday, with which communication were you told?  What was told to you as to why you were taken into custody?
 
Paul van der Sloot: That was not told to me when I was apprehended.  During the apprehension I was told that I was suspected of complicity to murder manslaughter and usurpatory freedom spoliation (kidnapping).  During the session with the judge [5], it was told that the suspicion originated, because that Monday night, when so many people were standing there in front of the door, I allegedly declared that at four o'clock, I picked up Joran.  And someone else, allegedly declared that I picked up Joran and Natalee, while my own declaration was, directed at police officers, that I picked up Joran at eleven o'clock at the McDonald's. That is, of course remarkable that the public prosecutor's office adds two witness statements of people who were standing somewhere in the back, and not the witness declaration from the police officers, where I direct myself to, and directed myself to, as much as possible.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST?

Nova - June 28, 2005

Reporter (Twan Huys):  Which function do you have here at the island?  Because many stories go around about that. What is your function?

Paul van der Sloot: I am a replacing member of the joint court of justice of the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba [1] and I am appointed for a period of three years, from January the first, 2003, until January the first, 2006.
 
Reporter (Twan Huys):  So, you are replacement judge?
 
Paul van der Sloot: Yes.
 
Reporter (Twan Huys): Do you know the people very well, for example, the people here from the public prosecutors' office that ordered your detention?

Paul van der Sloot: Yes, for sure, because, before that, I have worked for eight years as chief of the cabinet of the prosecutor general [2].

Reporter (Twan Huys): So, you also know the current prosecutor general?
 
Paul van der Sloot: Yes.
 
Reporter (Twan Huys):  Mrs. Croes.
 
Paul van der Sloot: Yes.
 
Reporter (Twan Huys):  Yes, and what does that mean when your colleagues stop by to arrest you?

Paul van der Sloot: That gives a feeling of absurdity.  It is indeed almost unimaginable that by someone you actually know very well, where you worked together with for a long time, that that one comes to tell you that you are suspected of complicity to murder.
 
Reporter (Twan Huys): Who was that in your case?
 
Paul van der Sloot: That was, in this case, that was the leader of the team of police commissioners.

Reporter (Twan Huys):  Jan van der Straaten.
 
Paul van der Sloot: That was Jan van der Straaten, yes.
 
Reporter (Twan Huys): And you know each other very well?
 
Paul van der Sloot: Yes.

NANCY GRACE, HOST:  Jossy, regarding the connection, what I perceived to be a close connection between the judge, Paulus Van Der Sloot and the retired chief of police who initially handled Natalee`s case, Van Der Stratten, were they friends?
 
JOSSY MANSUR: Of course, they were friends. It stands to reason they were friends because Paul Van Der Sloot had many friends within the police department; he had many friends within the Department of Justice. And he had many friends with -- and he was friendly with all the judges in Aruba. He worked out of the same office as they did and did the same work.

A FREE PASS TO OBSTRUCT THE NATALEE HOLLOWAY INVESTIGATION?


'The Abrams Report' - June 30, 2005

CAREN JANSSEN, CHIEF PROSECUTOR IN ARUBA: The father has spoken with those three suspects and he said he gave them some legal advice, but I think the advices was going further than that. They spoke about the situation that when there is no body, you don‘t have a case and that was already in the first day after the disappearance. And secondly, the father and the mother have asked a friend of Joran, the suspect, the minor suspect, to come to their home to tell them what he has explained to the police. That is, well, I can say, was an obstruction of the investigation.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8416795/


‘The Abrams Report’ - July 1, 2005.

ARLENE ELLIS-SCHIPPER, ARUBAN ATTORNEY: Well basically obstruction of justice is a criminal offense in our criminal code. However, there is an exoneration for family members in the first degree. So in the case of Mr. Van der Sloot it would not apply.

According to Deepak Kalpoe's own words to Mickey John while their detainment overlapped ... the Holiday Inn account was fabricated prior to Beth and Jug's arrival at the van der Sloots residence at 3:00 AM on the morning of May 31, 2005.

It appears that Deepak and Paulus were both participants in that fabrication at some period of time on Monday, May 30, 2005 following the happenings encompassing the disappearance of Natalee Holloway.

MICKEY JOHN, FORMER SUSPECT: He (Deepak) said a story being made up about dropping the girl of at a Holiday Inn, was all something being made up. He, and the Dutch guy, and the Dutch guy's father, they sit and made up the story.

GRETA VAN SUSTEREN, HOST: The father, too?

JOHN: All of them. They made up...

VAN SUSTEREN: Did he specifically say — Deepak specifically say to you the father was part of that?

JOHN: Deepak told me that he and the family sit down and they made up the story.

VAN SUSTEREN: So family and not father?

JOHN: Well, I don't know who the family consists of. But I know the father was involved, according to him (Deepak).

Paulus van der Sloot's compensation that was awarded by the lower court for wrongful detainment was overturned by the Superior Court.  It was determined that Paulus' arrest was justified.

+++++++

Superior Court - January, 2007
 
The possible involvement of Paulus that could then be deducted from the file with the official reports of witnesses, amongst which two people suggested a contact existed between Paulus and Natalee Holloway the night of her disappearance, and a taped report (that was given by the Prosecutor in her final note 1 to the Court). The taped information and his declaration that he picked up Joran and Natalee by the McDonalds Palm Beach and brought them to the Holiday Inn, are clearly understood by the Dept. of Justice, and could in the judgement of this Superior Court, be considered as an indication of the involvement of Paulus in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway.


Nancy Grace - August 12, 2005
 
BETH HOLLOWAY TWITTY, NATALEE`S MOTHER: ... Paulus Van Der Sloot stated that he picked up at 4:00 AM on May the 30th. Then -- we don`t know who they were, but then even as far as June 16 and June 17, Mr. Van Der Sloot was still stating this 4:00 AM pickup. Only until around -- maybe it was when he was picked up or arrested did he change it to 11:00 PM that I had knowledge of.

THE CASINO RECORDING

Paulus claimed he left the casino during the Poker game prior to Natalee entering the establishment.  Why would he lie?  If there was nothing to hide ... why not admit that he had a short encounter with Natalee at the Black Jack table?  Why did Paulus attempt to distance himself from any connection to Natalee?

Witness Statement - Paulus van der Sloot - June 18, 2005

On May 29th 2005, at approximately 16.00 hours, I went with Joran to the “Free Carribean Stud Tournament” in the Holiday Inn. During the break, at approximately 18.30 hours, I went back home. My youngest son Sebastian who was playing at a friends house was due to be dropped off at home around that time. Joran, with my permission, took over my seat because he had been eliminated earlier.

BOTTOM LINE - ACCORDING TO JOHN Q. KELLY  

'Rita Cosby Live & Direct' - April 11, 2006

JOHN Q. KELLY, HOLLOWAY FAMILY ATTORNEY: ... And it’s sort of ironic that it’s his father who brought his underage son to a casino and left him there after he left, with access to his line of credit, to put this unfortunate chain of events in process.
 
You know, if Joran had never been there, not been allowed in there, because he’s underage and wasn’t accompanied by his father, the whole rest of the night wouldn’t have happened.

RITA COSBY, HOST: You know, and, John, also, why would that be a significant—why is that in conflict to something else we’ve heard maybe from Paulus before?

KELLY: Well, he’s just claiming that, you know, he’s kept an eye on his son, you know, he’s kept him on a short leash, and, you know, his son is very well-behaved. And it turns out that he’s, you know, got him at casinos. If you’re under 18, you’re not legally even allowed in casinos, so his son was breaking the law with him enabling it.

Natalee Holloway Suspect`s Father Dies Suddenly in Aruba
Aired February 11, 2010 - 20:00:00   ET


NANCY GRACE, HOST:  Joining me right now, a very special guest, managing director and publisher of "Diario" magazine, Jossy Mansur, joining us.

JWhat can you tell us about the death of Paulus Van Der Sloot?

JOSSY MANSUR, MANAGING DIRECTOR AND PUBLISHER, DIARIO: Well, I think that it will open the case again. I think that it combines with a new government that we have. A new minister of justice. And everything seems to be pointing into the direction of the case will move forward from here on. Yes.

GRACE: But how will Paulus -- Judge Paulus Van Der Sloot`s death affect the case moving forward?

MANSUR: Well, not only the fact that it`s moving forward but he will have absolutely no more influence to guide whatever the investigation -- whatever the investigators are busy with. He has absolutely no contacts anymore with the judges that may again in the future with Joran`s family and before them in the tribunal.

And many things will change now with his death. ....

GRACE:  Jossy, what more do you know about his actual death? Where did he die?

MANSUR: He died on a tennis court in Piera del Sol (ph). That`s a very lush and exclusive section of the island where you have $1 million homes. The retired people -- I mean foreigners that own huge mansions there.

He was playing tennis there and apparently his heart gave up. He collapsed. They brought the ambulance. They rushed him to the hospital. They worked on him for quite a while, but there was nothing they could do anymore. He was dead.

NANCY GRACE
Natalee Holloway Suspect`s Father Dies Suddenly in Aruba
Aired February 11, 2010 - 20:00:00   ET


DAVE HOLLOWAY, NATALEE HOLLOWAY'S FATHER: (via telephone): Good evening, Nancy.

NANCE GRACE, HOST: What`s your reaction to the news that daddy Van Der Sloot is dead, collapsing on a resort`s tennis court?

HOLLOWAY: You know, I really didn`t have any initial reaction, Nancy, other than the fact that, you know, it`s -- two sides of it. You know, you`ve got to feel for some of the innocent people that he has affected, you know, certainly, his immediate family, but a bunch of the other people on the island, as well as us. And you know, secondly, now that he`s not controlling the police investigation, leniency towards what the judges write (ph) and then his own son, you know, maybe there`s hope that someone will talk.

GRACE: With me is Natalee`s father, Dave Holloway, who did everything in his power to try to find his daughter. Can you imagine your child going away on a senior trip, well chaperoned, a great bunch of kids, great chaperones, monitored, and then you get the word everybody came back but your daughter?

Dave Holloway, what do you believe judge Paulus Van Der Sloot`s involvement was in covering up for his son?

DAVE HOLLOWAY: My thought (INAUDIBLE) is that once Joran was taken into custody and gave his initial deposition, I think that`s where Paul Van Der Sloot came into action as far as changing up the statements and then doing what he had to do to get his son off.

Chief Suspect Van der Sloot's Dad Dies: Did Holloway Secrets Go to the Grave?
Friday, February 12, 2010


JULIA RENFRO, EDITOR, "ARUBA TODAY" (Via Telephone): Good evening, Greta. It was very shocking for the van der Sloot family and the entire community of Aruba. Paul was playing tennis yesterday and he collapsed. And the ambulance was unfortunately unable to resuscitate him.

VAN SUSTEREN: What has been going on for the family? Is everything sort of "back to normal," of is the family shunned at all? What has been the relationship of the van der Sloots on the island?

RENFRO: You have to understand that the island of Aruba, the people of Aruba respect the judicial system here. And to this very date, there have been no charges in this case. And Paul has been completely exonerated.

He, according to the authorities, has no participation in the event at all, and, sorry to say that, but in this case. It has just been devastating for everybody.

Natalee Holloway:Paulus van der Sloot, father of Joran van der Sloot, dead of cardiac arrest

Posted February 11, 2010 by Klaasend

102.Steve Holloway on February 12th, 2010 10:38 am

I have mixed emotions about Paulus death. It reminds me of the nightmare this man caused our family, my brother Dave his wife Robin and Jug and Beth, to impede justice to protect his son.

Paulus had to have a great deal of grief to carry around all these’s years. I don’t believe he could have been a happy man, I mean truly happy. The kind of happiness that you get from someone telling you that you have a wonderful child and they are a blessing to have in their class room or the kind of happiness you get after helping a person in need, whether its big or small making a different in their life.

God wants us to serve others.

Paulus needed help but chose blindly to help his son hide behind his influence with Judges and knowledge of the law. With such a burden to carry is it possible that Paulus made a video confessing the true events that happen, to lighten his conscience? I will not hold my breath.

Paulus right now is in one of two places, Heaven or hell. It was his choice, no one else’s. If he’s in Hell its not anybody’s fault but his, not our family and certainly not anything Natalee did.

The only good from his death is to show the rest of his family what its like to lose a loved one. Now we have something in common. I pray he made peace with God before he passed away.

Now the last commit on his death. You may ask yourself do I believe what I preach about “GOD” and JESUS CHRIST saving us from our sins and forgiving others of the wrong they do against us. The answer is YES. I don’t cause the burden around with me twenty four seven of hate, or murder in my heart, or vengeance which is God’s and unforgiveness. I give it to GOD and live my life the best I can for HIM. Now I make this choice.

I forgive Paulus.

What if someone poisoned Paulus. There are some choline type drugs that produce death just like a heart attack. Maybe some of his pals think it is time to cover up the story forever. Or maybe one of his gangster friends is collecting an old debt. Joran could be next or even Anita. That Aruba is a strange place, best all tourists stay away….like forever. The boycott goes on. Never go to the Island of Death.

Of the dead nothing but good, it is the cliché, and it is indeed that we use in the writing an obituary, especially when the positive qualities of the person stop.

Still, I honestly do not in any negative traits or qualities of Paul can remember and that is to my knowledge, to all our colleagues and confrères noble profession in Aruba.

Paul for the first time I learned to know he was a member of the Public Ministry. From the introduction struck me as a civilized, kind, helpful and friendly man Paul.

Paul was in all respects a gentleman of the old school. Always willing to members of the legal profession to assist if they had questions or needed help with something, and in the always very amiable relationship.

Also I remember how Paul shortly after the introduction of the National Ordinance on Administrative Jurisprudence (LAR) us one PAO course during the secrets and mysteries of the LAR. Paul did that with patience and clear manner. His great gifts were teaching this clearly.

Even when Paul had joined the legal profession, he remained in the handling and vakbroeders
Sisters-even civilized, amiable and helpful.

Another cliché is that a good lawyer always, at all and everybody wants to win and if necessary will appear. Especially American clients are often impressed by this vision what a good lawyer should pursue. The ideealbeeld of the lawyer as "hired Gun "and" streetfighter ".

In this vision, the lawyer, who sports an advocate against congratulates with his victory in a lawsuit, of course, a "loser". As a famous lawyer an older generation than mine, which are no longer active, once remarked to me: "Ha, show me a good loser, and I'll show you a bad lawyer ".

I do not agree with this view of our profession and have always admired and more appreciation affected the lawyer, who in "the heat of the battle" remains a gentleman opposite against the other party and counsel, and that even if he loses, sports remains compared against the lawyer and not willing to congratulate him or her.

Well, Paul lost a lawyer, even if he fought for his clients with passion, never his control and was always the perfect gentleman. I've never seen Paul necessary found to be committing character assassination on the other party or to hurl mud against an advocate. We can all learn much of the civilized and controlled way Paul practiced.

It is for these reasons that we all had much to do with Paul and his family when Natalee
Holloway affair and its aftermath occurred. For Paul's wife Anita and their sons Joran,
Valentijn and Sebastian, his unexpected and sudden departure under these circumstances
extra hard to take. The Bar Association wishes them so much strength.

Lastly, I am special to Joran, Valentine and Sebastian to focus. The most valuable that older children may result in this life are not material things. The most valuable is the moral and spiritual legacy, embodied in the way a father led his life and the example he leaves for the remaining generation.

On behalf of the Order, I hope that Joran, Valentine and Sebastian comfort, strength and inspiration will be able to draw on the exemplary manner in which Paul has pursued his profession, hung out with his fellow man, the head has offered setbacks and generally, his life
came.

NANCY GRACE - October 4, 2005


JUG TWITTY, NATALEE HOLLOWAY, STEPFATHER: Absolutely. I mean I asked -- with a meeting with the prosecutor did you search Paulus` home and she said no. And I said why? And she said because he wouldn`t let us. I`m going I can`t -- he was a suspect. They brought him in for -- held him for two days. I just don`t understand it. That`s what I`m talking about. Nothing was done right in the beginning on this thing, otherwise we`d have an answer.

Aruban authorities have defended their handling of the case, saying meticulous police work takes time.

"You have to build up an investigation. You can't just go in there like a cowboy," (Karin) Janssen said last week when asked why investigators waited more than two weeks to search the van der Sloot home.

FOX News w/ Martha MacCallum - November 28, 2006
 
BETH HOLLOWAY TWITTY, MOTHER OF NATALEE HOLLOWAY: Well I think they will always have to look at there were two personnel involved from the Aruban Justice Department and that is why we don’t have any evidence and that’s what Joran’s attorney will have to be reminded of. It’s because of Bob Witt and Ben King stopped the search warrants. It was made to initially search the entire area of Montanja 19 the garden, the buildings and everything but on the spot high ranking employee of the Justice Office Bob Witt reduced the search warrant to only the room of Joran so that’s why we don’t have any evidence because of involvement of the obstruction from the Aruban Justice Department personnel.


SECURITY GUARDS

CNN SUNDAY MORNING - June 5, 2005


DILMA ARENDS, REPORTER: Yes, we were part of a group of local reporters who received the tip since yesterday, and we were able to intercept a large caravan of local police officers who raided two homes in St. Nicholas (ph). The first one the whole group went there. They went into the house. Once they got out of the house they started checking two cars and then some police officers stayed at that house. We weren't able to see very well, but we saw the police detaining one person, handcuffing that person and a couple of officers stayed behind with that person and the caravan continued on to another house in downtown St. Nicholas and that's when they were joined by another local detective, who was accompanied by three FBI agents.

This operation was done by local police officers. And, I mean, they did the standard procedures. They knocked on the door. They told them -- they identified themselves, went into the house and start searching. As a matter of fact, there were two dogs barking. They even told the owners of he house or the inhabitants there to -- the residence there to keep the dogs calm. And it went pretty calm. I mean there was no resistance.

They immediately went in and they were accompanied by the person in charge, district attorney Karen Janssen. And they did a search and after half an hour or so came out with another man, also in handcuffs. While he was led out other agents stay there and combed the whole house and we saw them taking out bags of stuff. What they were, we don't know.

USA Today - June 6, 2005

Two security guards from a hotel near where Holloway was staying were arrested Sunday. Aruban police in unmarked cars accompanied by FBI agents arrested the suspects, ages 30 and 28, during a pre-dawn raid.

An AP photographer watched as the rumpled men — one from the De Vuiyst housing project for poorer islanders and another from an average home in southeast San Nicolas — emerged without resistance, hands cuffed behind their backs.

Police searched the homes and emerged with what looked like a metal safe deposit box and a garbage bag of clothing.

Justice would have been if Joran had died with Paul.  I believe they both know exactly what happened to Natalee and were both involved in the coverup of the truth.   Paul met justice in the face and now he can face Natalee with his lies.   Someday, justice will find Joran, too.

Natalee Holloway: New Clues
Investigator Tells 48 Hours She Probably Died From Excessive Alcohol, Maybe Drugs


Police say they could not listen in on the conversations between Paulus and his son, citing that they were "privileged conversations."

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

Authorities now believe that the teenager's body may be buried somewhere among some dunes, but not because it washed ashore. The Aruban authorities’ new theory is that someone, someone possibly very close to the young suspects, took the time to carefully hide the body, not once but maybe twice, literally re-burying her.

While I think that was excellent logic, I think that possibly the only difference I believe is that the boys buried her by the fishermans hut, and Paulus and Co moved her without the boys knowledge because of Joran's confession and the fact the boys recorded conversation  indicate they don't know where she is now. Also, if Lorenzo is involved, maybe Guido was there only the party was at Lorenzo's?

Natalee Holloway:Paulus van der Sloot, father of Joran van der Sloot, dead of cardiac arrest

Posted February 11, 2010 by Klaasend

102.Steve Holloway on February 12th, 2010 10:38 am

I have mixed emotions about Paulus death. It reminds me of the nightmare this man caused our family, my brother Dave his wife Robin and Jug and Beth, to impede justice to protect his son.

Paulus had to have a great deal of grief to carry around all these’s years. I don’t believe he could have been a happy man, I mean truly happy. The kind of happiness that you get from someone telling you that you have a wonderful child and they are a blessing to have in their class room or the kind of happiness you get after helping a person in need, whether its big or small making a different in their life.

God wants us to serve others.

Paulus needed help but chose blindly to help his son hide behind his influence with Judges and knowledge of the law. With such a burden to carry is it possible that Paulus made a video confessing the true events that happen, to lighten his conscience? I will not hold my breath.

Paulus right now is in one of two places, Heaven or hell. It was his choice, no one else’s. If he’s in Hell its not anybody’s fault but his, not our family and certainly not anything Natalee did.

The only good from his death is to show the rest of his family what its like to lose a loved one. Now we have something in common. I pray he made peace with God before he passed away.

Now the last commit on his death. You may ask yourself do I believe what I preach about “GOD” and JESUS CHRIST saving us from our sins and forgiving others of the wrong they do against us. The answer is YES. I don’t cause the burden around with me twenty four seven of hate, or murder in my heart, or vengeance which is God’s and unforgiveness. I give it to GOD and live my life the best I can for HIM. Now I make this choice.

I forgive Paulus.

Hi Steve.

Thanks you for your comment. You have a good heart.

Your belief system regarding forgiveness reflects many in my circle of family and friends but … I have a personal struggle embracing the thought process.

I contend the line was drawn in the sand over 2000 years ago … repentence and forgiveness is a package deal.

1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

I have no difficulty affording forgiveness to another who has wronged me … caused me grieve IF there is there is genuine repentence.  However ... without that repentance … I just have to let it go ... give the burden to my Heavenly Father along with all the other areas of my life for which I have no control and ... move on.  In time the sting does lessen.

Steve ... when it comes to Paulus van der Sloot … the man has not wronged me personally.  The implication is that forgiveness is not an issue.  However ... if Natalee was my niece … there would be no forgiveness without genuine repentance.

God Bless

Janet

THE CHANGING STORY OF PAULUS VAN DER SLOOT

Claudio Stamper was one of the handlers who assisted throughout that long first night/morning following the arrival of the Twitty group on the Island of Aruba ... one of the handlers who heard all at the gathering at the van der Sloot residence.  At some point in time ... Stamper concurred with Natalee Holloway's claim that Paulus stated that he was at the Palm Beach McDonalds at 4:00 am on the morning of May 30, 2005.

+++++++

On the Record w/ Greta - August 2, 2005

BETH HOLLOWAY TWITTY, NATALEE HOLLOWAY'S MOTHER: Yes, 4 a.m. on May 31, he stated — I documented in my journal — that he stated to the police spokesperson that he picked Joran up at 4 a.m. Again, on June 17, I have it documented in my journal that they were going to question Paul that day about the 4 a.m. pick-up. And then it changed. That's why I was so shocked that day that you and I went to his home. That was the first time that he had changed to it 11 p.m., to the 29th. So that's just one example of many little details that are just driving me crazy now that I'm back home.

The DEA agents tells everyone to remain in their vehicles until he gets there.  And suggests that the women not get out of their cars at all.

And it’s sort of ironic that it’s his father who brought his underage son to a casino and left him there after he left, with access to his line of credit, to put this unfortunate chain of events in process.

You know, Paulus may not be dead. He could be in one of those crack houses and will show up in a few days. No worry, or he could be in South America or Mexico with drug dealers, where he can get all the drugs he wants. Or he could have slipped out of the country and gone to Mountain Brook, AL, USA to be with friends. He is just out having fun, probably will show up at Carlos and Charlie’s in a few nights. Joran can go there and wait on him, take Jacobs and van der Stratten and have a few spiked drinks.

7:37 pm: Paulus googles "alcohol", beer", and "drugs". Visits sites containing information on alcohol and drugs, the dangers of these for young people, and a lawyer's office. The sites are visited only briefly.

A PAULUS APOLOGIST

Rammstein:
  He only briefly looked at some sites, downloading a few pictures. Maybe he was just looking for pictures. That is what people do who go to Google images you know (at least that is what I do when looking for pictures ) because if PvdS had been looking for articles/information he would have used google.com proper and given a bit more specific search-queries IMHO like "alcohol XTC" "or "alcohol drugs" etc

Found this a bit interesting.  Posted 2/12/2010 on an Aruban BB:

FROM CHARLES CROES

The truth is so often either close to the heart or residing in it.
Imagine to be given the simplest of all choices

Admit your child has sold his soul to the devil or that he is unfairly seen as that demon himself
Know that you will be your sons noose or that you will snug his tie on his wedding night
Admit that your first born lies to you or that his truths are lies he believes
What would your choice be?
And isn’t it strange that :
A kitten is stuck in a sewer and the world praises the fireman that saves him
A father saves his son and he walks in the sewer from which the kitten was saved.
The truth lies in our hearts and our hearts – so often – do not belong to us
Our hearts belong to those we love the most

And so when a father dies, so often does the truth of his son.

ANOTHER MEETING

Paulus van der Sloot
Suspect Statement
June 23, 2005


My wife called Freddy again and asked him if he could tell his story again to Joran's lawyer. At first he didn't want to come because he had an exam the very next day but in the end he and his parents came over. He then told the story he knew to Joran's lawyer. I am convinced that Mr. CARLO did this with the best intentions possible.


'The Abrams Report' for June 30
updated 10:30 a.m. PT, Fri., July. 1, 2005


KARIN JANSSEN, CHIEF PROSECUTOR, ARUBA:  The father and the mother have asked a friend of Joran‘s, the suspect, the minor suspect, to come to their home to tell them what he has explained to the police.  And that is - well, I can say was an obstruction of the investigation.

The following is a reminder of the words in his witness statement that Freddy related to interrogators ... shared with Paul and Anita parents and ... shared with Joran's attorney.

Freddy Arambatzis - Witness Statement - June 12, 2005

I am the best friend and neighbor of Joran. We got to know each other about two years ago. Joran and myself are both really into sports and that is how we became good friends.

(THE LIE?)

Monday afternoon on the 30th, Joran came to my house. He told me that the previous day, Sunday, he had befriended a girl in the Holiday Inn casino and that she had invited him to come to Carlos and Charlies that evening. He went and they danced and drank together. After that he, Deepak Satish and the girl drove off. Her friends saw that. The drove in the direction of the Lighthouse; a white car was behind them and most likely wanted to race Deepak. But that is something Deepak would never do. Joran told me that he fingered and had french kissed the girl while they were driving. He did not say that he had had sex with her. They drove to the Lighthouse, she wanted to see sharks. But Deepak only drove up to the Lighthouse because his car is very low to the ground and cannot drive up to the North side of Aruba. The girl had said to Joran that if Deepak and Satish would have lived in her town, they would be slaves. After that they drove to the hotel. When the girl had pushed open the door of the car, she fell to the ground. Joran wanted to help her but she shoved him away. (....)


(THE TRUTH?)

The next day, Tuesday May 31st 2005 in the afternoon, I was with Joran at the raquetclub. Joran looked worried. He asked me if I could remember what he had said the previous day about the girl. I told him yes. The girl had gone missing. The FBI had been to his house during the night but he had not been home. His father had called him to find out where he was, Joran said that he was in the Raddison Casino. He told he that after that phone call he was called on the phone by Deepak and that Deepak picked him up a few minutes later. They drove to Joran's house. The FBI and the girls family were at his house. After that Joran told me that Deepak, Satish and himself did not drop off the girl at the Holiday Inn Hotel, but that the four of them drove to the beach at the north side of the Marriot Hotel. The girl had fallen several times on the way to the beach. Joran told me that at some point she "no longer came around/no longer regained consciousness" and that they had left her on the beach. He also told me that he had left his gym/sporting shoes on the beach. After Joran had told me this, I asked him why he had left her there. He answered me that at that moment he had not known what to do. Joran told me that after this he was dropped off at home by Deepak and Satish. On the evening of June the third, I met Joran at his house. (....) He told met that during this period, he could not remember if they had bought something to eat or did anything else.

JOSSY MANSUR
Dana Pretzer Show - July 23, 2007


DANA PRETZER: One thing that makes my listeners scratch their heads so to speak and wonder, myself included and we’ll talk about it again, is the fact of the underage drinking and gambling that had been going on admittedly by young van der Sloot. Was there ever any discussion or has there ever been any discussion at least of filing some charges as far as that goes?

JOSSY MANSUR: No, there hasn’t been any of that. The authorities have just (inaudible) it aside, they haven’t paid any attention to it then and they’re not paying any attention to it now and over the past 26 months. I haven’t seen anything in the direction of trying to make some kind of statement that this is not (inaudiable) at least make some sort of a statement that this is not (inaubible) because it is a known fact that as an underage he wasn’t supposed to be in the casino, much less in the company of his father. He was there, there are video tapes to prove that and still the authorities haven’t done anything with regard to that specific case.

If Paulus van der Sloot is honored in death … if the truth regarding his true character is covered up ... the misguided lessons that he taught his sons in life are furthered … lessons which imply that the legal and moral boundaries established by a civilized society do not apply to them … lessons that there are no consequences for choosing to disregard those boundaries.

Maybe … just maybe … the dishonoring of Paulus van der Sloot in death will have a positive impact on the future life choices of his sons.  Maybe ... just maybe ... the cycle can be broken.

Natalee Holloway Investigation: Exclusive … Tim Miller of Texas EquuSearch in Aruba to meet With ALE/Prosecutor … New Witness That Puts Joran & Paulus Van der Sloot Near Ponds on 5/30/05

... Why is this witness potentially credible? The Aruban passed two polygraph tests in Houston, TX on August 5, 2008. The tests were performed by John Swartz of John Swartz & Associates, International Polygraph Examiners. The 48 year old Aruba, name withheld for obvious reasons, went to police early on in the investigation; however, was not taken seriously.

BETH HOLLOWAY TWITTY, NATALEE HOLLOWAY'S MOTHER: Yes, 4 a.m. on May 31, he stated — I documented in my journal — that he stated to the police spokesperson that he picked Joran up at 4 a.m. Again, on June 17, I have it documented in my journal that they were going to question Paul that day about the 4 a.m. pick-up. And then it changed. That's why I was so shocked that day that you and I went to his home. That was the first time that he had changed to it 11 p.m., to the 29th. So that's just one example of many little details that are just driving me crazy now that I'm back home.

Press Anouncement
Ladies and gentlemen!

Hans Mos:


In the month of March 2008 a witness who was urged by Dave Holloway to step forward confronted the Prosecutor’s Office. The man gave a statement on March 16th 2008 accompanied by his lawyer. This witness statement is already widely known: the witness claims he saw Joran van der Sloot in the middle of the night of May 30th walking in front of his house, soaked up to his chest, walking on one shoe and heavily breathing. He was walking into the direction of the hotels, coming from the direction of the Church at Noord. What the witness was actually aiming for was the Police to conduct an intensive search in the dam of Monserrat. Nevertheless the witness could not give us any reason why the Police should conduct a search in the dam. It was the conclusion of the witness that Joran had come from the dam since he came walking from that direction. There was no indication whatsoever that Joran had been at the dam. For that reason the Police were not ordered to conduct that search. ...

THE WITNESS
 
Natalee Holloway Investigation: The Witness was Afraid to Come Forward & Aware that Paulus van der Sloot had Powerful Connections in the Prosecutors Office.

Last week, after months of following the new developments, DIARIO published the first part of the witness’ statement. This statement that was already in Prosecutor Mos’s hands.

DIARIO opted to wait until after the FBI sent the results of the polygraph test and their investigation to Holland, before publishing the second part of the statement, considering that Holland would send a copy to Aruba.

THE WITNESS’ STATEMENT

On May 30th, 2005 he was sleeping in his room; when he was awaken by the alarming sound of barking dogs. He opened his eyes and checked his alarm clock; it was 4:05 am.

He got up and listening to where the barking was coming from, he went in the living room and peeked thru the window to find out why the dogs sounded so alarmed.
Under the street light, he saw someone walking towards his house, from the Nacional Soccer field, close to the Monserat pond and hotel area.

While the person was walking under another street light, he could clearly see the person. It was undoubtedly a man, notably tall, slim, Caucasian, with short and dark hair, relatively young and he looked like a Dutch citizen.

He could see his profile and one side of his face. He was wearing a red t-shirt and light colored pants. The witness noticed by the way the person was limping, that he was missing his right sneaker or shoe. He also noted that the person was breathing extremely hard, as if he just had been running very hard for a long time. His chest was heaving.

WET AND MUDDY CLOTHES

The witness stated (and probably also in the lie-detector test), that the person clothes were wet and that he also saw a muddy stripe on his chest, more or less about 5 centimeters above his chest.

The muddy stripe on his chest clearly showed that he was completely wet.
At first glance, the witness though that the person maybe had been in a fight with someone, and he was running not to get beat up. But his face showed no bruises or blood.

But because he didn’t look back not even to check if someone might be following him and just kept walking fast with his head down, the witness thought he did something other that fighting.

The person walked past his house, and kept walking, until he was out of sight, and he never raised his head or looked back, and just kept walking in the hotel’s direction. This happened in about one minute.

NEW INFORMATION

After the witness saw the person walk past his house and was out of sight, he sat down in his living room for about 5 minutes. He then noticed a car driving slowly, coming from the hotel area. Behind the wheel was a middle-aged, Caucasian man. Next to him, the witness saw the young man that was walking past his house a few minutes earlier.

The witness said they were driving a red jeep, and that they were driving extremely slow. He stated to the American investigators that was clearly that the driver and the passenger were looking for something on the floor. He said that the car just keep going in the direction of the Monserat pond.

HE RECOGNIZED THE DRIVER

According to the witness, in the following weeks he recognized the young man as Joran van der Sloot, when his pictures started to circulate in the press, and that the disappearance of Natalee Holloway became an international media frenzy. He also recognized the driver as Paulus van der Sloot, Joran’s father. The witness stated that, that was everything he saw and that nothing more happened. The question in everyone mind is: What were Paulus and Joran looking for on that road? The fact that the witness passed the polygraph test and is telling the truth is enough to focus the attention on that.

Of course the public wants to know why this witness didn’t come forward in 2005.
The witness was afraid of the consequences of his statement, since he was well aware that Paulus van der Sloot has powerful connections in the Prosecutors Office. Paulus is a lawyer, and he was studying to become a judge.

Knowing that the justice system in Aruba is totally in Dutch hands, he felt compelled to keep his mouth shut. This went on for more than 2 years, and in the end of 2007, he felt the need to reveal what he saw that day from his house.

The witness hired a lawyer to defend him, because in such a complicated case, even the witness has to be prepared for any eventuality, and also for guidance.
 
Meanwhile American investigators, with the consent from local authorities, did a sonar test at the Monserat pond in the beginning of this year, when the water level was low.

DIARIO was informed that this test discovered 15 objects underwater, and that only 3 could be defined.

A polygraph (popularly referred to as a lie detector) is an instrument that measures and records several physiological responses such as blood pressure, pulse, respiration and skin conductivity while the subject is asked and answers a series of questions, on the theory that false answers will produce distinctive measurements. The polygraph measures physiological changes caused by the sympathetic nervous system during questioning. The 48 year old witness passed this test with flying colors, indicating that everything he saw that dawn, close to the Monserat pond, is true.

DIARIO presumes that the Prosecutor’s Office received this statement from Holland, and just in case they didn’t, they can read it today for free and begin to do their homework.

Natalee Holloway Investigation: The Witness was Afraid to Come Forward & Aware that Paulus van der Sloot had Powerful Connections in the Prosecutors Office.


Posted September 16, 2008 by Scared Monkeys

ORANJESTAD(AAN):  Last week, DIARIO published the latest information regarding the key witness, who came forward to disclose everything he witnessed on May 2005 from his house, which is situated in the neighborhood of the Nacional Soccer field, close to the Monserat pond.

However the witness was afraid to come forward to the Police and local Prosecutor, because of the prejudice in the Prosecutor Office, which is alive and growing each day.

He did give a statement to the Prosecutor, but to certain extent. The more important and key details he revealed to the American investigators.

The American investigators listened very carefully to his story and immediately felt that he was telling the truth. They then asked him if he was willing to go to the States and pass a polygraph test.

The witness was tested by John S. Swartz, a renowned professional in this field, and the test revealed that he was telling the truth! Finally shedding some light on the disappearance of Natalee Holloway in 2005.

:  There is apparently no amount of money in the world that can get us the answer to what happened to Natalee.  When I asked an Aruban attorney about this, his response was chilling:  "The threat is bigger than the money," he says.  The Threat.  That dark influence.  The evil that nothing and no one can pierce.

FBI Statement - July 12, 2005


After swimming at the hotel on Sunday, WHATLEY and other classmates, including HOLLOWAY, ate dinner at a restaurant next to the hotel. After dinner they went to the casino at the hotel. A few classmates were gambling at a card table along with an "older man" and YURON VAN DER SLOOT. (Whatley 302)


The Lineup - June 9, 2006 

KIMBERLY GUILFOYLE: It has been one year since the disappearance of Natalee Holloway. Unfortunately we are left now with more questions than answers. What we do know is that Joran and the Kalpoe brothers were the last people seen with Natalee Holloway, which is the reason why they still remain to this day the main suspects in the case. As for Paulus, sources say he is the person next to Natalie in the casino.

JOHN Q. KELLY, HOLLOWAY FAMILY ATTORNEY: Well, if you look at the surveillance video footage, it appears that he’s the one sitting directly next to her and tries to engage her in conversation a couple of times.

And it’s sort of ironic that it’s his father who brought his underage son to a casino and left him there after he left, with access to his line of credit, to put this unfortunate chain of events in process.

ABC7CHICAGO - February 23, 2006

(Michael) Posner says it was he who voluntarily turned over this casino surveillance tape to Aruban authorities and that he is furious they have allowed ABC News to broadcast it.

Dana Pretzer Show - December 14, 2006

DANA PRETZER: When you look at this case, a question keeps coming up. I am looking at the picture on my PC. It is the alleged picture of a person in the casino with Natalee that looks a lot like Paul. Has there been any update on this issue?

JOSSY MANSUR: There have not been any change of opinion. People, including people in the casino say that is Paul.

When the casino recording that captures Paulus and Natalee conversing is considered ... father and son lied in their respective statements.  Why was it important that a Paulus - Natalee connection was not revealed?

Witness Statement - Paulus van der Sloot - June 18, 2005

On May 29th 2005, at approximately 16.00 hours, I went with Joran to the “Free Carribean Stud Tournament” in the Holiday Inn. During the break, at approximately 18.30 hours, I went back home. My youngest son Sebastian who was playing at a friends house was due to be dropped off at home around that time. Joran, with my permission, took over my seat because he had been eliminated earlier.

Suspect Statement - Joran van der Sloot - June 9, 2005

 On Sunday, I do not remember the date any more, I went at approximately 16.00 hours, to the "Excelsior Casino" at the Holiday Inn Hotel to play "Texas Hold'm poker". (with this the suspect is talking about May 29th 2005). I went with my father named "Paul van der SLOOT" to the casino. I went to play "Texas Hold'm Poker" with my father. It is a poker game in which you get 7 cards and you have to make a card combination with your best (5) cards. You get 500 U.S. $ of fake money and with this money you play. I was done sooner than my father and I went and hung around in the casino. When it was half time of the game my father wanted to go home to go and babysit my ten year old brother. At my father's request I sat in for him and played "Texas Hold'm poker. I am not sure as to when half time was but I think it was between 19.00 and 20.00 hours.

THE POLYGRAPH

Natalee Holloway Investigation: The Witness was Afraid to Come Forward & Aware that Paulus van der Sloot had Powerful Connections in the Prosecutors Office.

Posted September 16, 2008 by Scared Monkeys


ORANJESTAD(AAN):  Last week, DIARIO published the latest information regarding the key witness, who came forward to disclose everything he witnessed on May 2005 from his house, which is situated in the neighborhood of the Nacional Soccer field, close to the Monserat pond.

However the witness was afraid to come forward to the Police and local Prosecutor, because of the prejudice in the Prosecutor Office, which is alive and growing each day.

He did give a statement to the Prosecutor, but to certain extent. The more important and key details he revealed to the American investigators.

The American investigators listened very carefully to his story and immediately felt that he was telling the truth. They then asked him if he was willing to go to the States and pass a polygraph test.

The witness was tested by John S. Swartz, a renowned professional in this field, and the test revealed that he was telling the truth! Finally shedding some light on the disappearance of Natalee Holloway in 2005.

Loving Natalee: A Mother's Testament of Hope and Faith
by Beth Holloway


Page 151:  A few days later Paulus is arrested and questioned by Aruban police after they say he changed his story about what time he picked up Joran on the night Natalee disappeared.  First Paulus states that he picked “them” up at McDonald’s at four in the morning on May 30.  We do not know who he means by “them.”  Later he changes his story completely, saying he picked Joran up at eleven at night on May 29 at McDonald’s.  By making this change, his story now coincides with the one Joran gave police on June 9.  But according to Aruban police officials it also makes Paulus another lying witness.


Witness Statement – Paulus van der Sloot – June 18, 2005

On May 30th 2005, in the nightly hours, I did not pick up Joran from anywhere. I slept solidly through the night without waking up.

Police head hindered Holloway investigation
Published: Thursday 04 December 2008 10:28 UTC
Last updated: Thursday 04 December 2008 10:35 UTC


Mr Croes also said that Mr Van de Straten appeared to have made a conscious decision not to arrest Joran van der Sloot and two other suspects until ten days after Ms Holloway disappeared, even though the first few days are crucial in such an investigation. He went on to say that Mr Van de Straten and Mr Van der Sloot conducted lengthy telephone conversations after the disappearance and that the commissioner deployed a team of second-rank officers to investigate it.

Mr Croes added that a Dutch minister had asked the Aruban authorities to conceal as much as possible the fact that Joran van der Sloot was Dutch.

JOSSY MANSUR, DIARIO NEWSPAPER IN ARUBA: Of course. We know he was involved from the beginning. And after the new wave of things(ph), Mr. Herman, who saw Joran walking with his clothes all muddy. And then later he was saw him in the car with Paulus van der Sloot.

And we assume, and it has been certified by this man that the man who took Joran van der Sloot to his home that night after Natalee disappeared was his father. So he was involved from the beginning.

February 11 at 9:13pm

Margaret Wever I am sorry, but I don't consider Paul's passing to be international news and especially it is not to be used as a chance to attack a family in pain.
I believe it is a tragic event for a familiy. It is not fair and it certainly is inhuman for in the time of a wife and their children's grief to use this as a publicity stunt to attract viewers. I know that is how the media works, but it is shameless.
The death of a pillar, a fort is horrible and hard on any family, especially when it happens like what happened to Paul... for someone so full of life and fairly young to leave so unexpected, sudden and fast... the pain for family and friends must be unbearable.
February 11 at 9:27pm

Charlie Mitchell agrees but american trash reporters find that they earn much money in sensationalism. Distorting their reporting to gain an audience & ratings. Right now, Nancy G is set about inciting the american public again. I hate it.

Texas Rescue Team In Aruba
Major Ground And Ocean Search Underway For Missing Teen


(CBS/AP)  Holloway's mother, Beth Holloway Twitty, said she was pleased with the arrest of the elder van der Sloot.

"We are very pleased that the investigation is progressing," she said. "We feel like this will lead to more information to give us the answers we need for finding Natalee."

But Anita van der Sloot insists Aruban authorities are holding her son and now her husband because they were under pressure — something Mariaine Croes of the Aruban Attorney General's office denied on CBS News' The Early Show Friday morning.

"I believe my son is innocent," Anita van der Sloot declared.

"And your husband?" asked Cobiella.

"Yes of course he's innocent. This is the most ridiculous thing. He's a judge. He's full of integrity," van der Sloot replied.

Loving Natalee – Beth Holloway

Page 147-151:
  The mission of meeting people and handing out the Ecclesiastes prayer cards and the beautiful colourful bracelets gives me a reason to get up and keep going.  FOX anchor Greta Van Susteren wants to come along, as many of the network reps have done over the past few weeks.  We’re going to the other end of the island today, near the van der Sloot neighbourhood, to ask for information.  And help.

As I reach to put a prayer card into the van der Sloot mailbox, I see someone on the side of the house and call out, “Anybody home?  Hello! You’ve go company! Knock, knock!  Anybody home?”

A man is behind the shrubs against the house.  “I see you there in the bushes.”  He freezes.  “I’m Natalee’s mom.  I just want to give you a prayer card.”

Paulus van der Sloot has to be coaxed out of the bushes like a dog in trouble.  He appears from behind the shrubs and comes to the gate.  I hand him one of Natalee’s prayer cards over the fence.

Surprisingly, he says, “Come in, please.  Stop the cameras, okay?  Stop the cameras.”

Greta and I lock eyes for a moment, and with no hint of hesitation on her part we go inside.  Through the front door we make our way across the tile floor, passing through a nicely decorated living room, under an archway, to an enclosed back-porch area.  We step down to a table and chairs.  Paulus’s wife, Joran’s mother Anita, is here.  There’s no glass in the multiple window openings in this room, just wooden slats.  And the air moves comfortably through the area.  The wind blows hard all the time in Aruba, and it’s breezy in here, well ventilated.  Paulus sits closest to the air flow.  I sit across from him, in close proximity.  Anita is on my left.  Greta is next to Paulus, her body turned toward him.

Anita tells us all about Joran and what a good boy he is.  How smart he is.  I let her go on and on, as this gives me time to listen, look, assess.  And as she continues, she begins to share with us what a difficult time they have had with him recently.  How he exhibits oppositional defiance and is disrespectful to his mother.  How they are beginning to lose control of him as he sneaks out at night and comes and goes as he pleases.  After about thirty minutes she concludes by telling us Joran is seeing a psychologist for his defiant behaviour.

Now it’s my turn.  I have no intention of matching her good-boy remarks with good-girl comments.  And cut to the chase.  Graphically repeating the very words said by their son a couple of weeks ago in his statements made on June 9, 10, and 13.  The vile account that was read to me in the attorney general’s office.  The equally explicit words used by Joran to describe what he did to Natalee.  Calmer than I have ever been in my whole life and without blinking, I tell them which fingers he said he used.  Where he said he put them.  How their son described my daughter’s pubic area, her underwear.  How Joran said she was falling asleep and waking up, falling asleep and waking up.  I tell them of his conflicting stories of what happened, the different places he said it happened.  Little beads of sweat form across Paulus’s brow and forehead.

My arms rest on top of the investigation notebook I carry with me all the time.  Natalee’s reward poster with her picture on it is inside the front clear cover, in plain view.  Paulus’s arms are on the table.  Our knuckles are only inches apart arms are shaking.  His fists are clenched.

“You’re responsible for Aruba being trapped in hell,” I tell him, still calm.  “You can change that.  But Aruba will stay in a perpetual state of hell until you come forward.”

I gently push the notebook toward him so he can see Natalee.  Anita remains silent.  The breeze is blowing ever cooler through the room now, yet the sweat on Paulus is increasing.

“How did Joran get home that night, Paulus?”  He responds that he doesn’t know.  “Did he go to school the next day?”  He responds again that he doesn’t know.

Greta and I have many questions.  “you mean this is the most critical time in your son’s life – he is being held on suspicion of kidnap and murder – and you don’t know how he got home or if he went to school?”

Paulus stammers when he answers.  He hesitates.  He sounds unnatural and blinks rapidly.  His head is down.  The beads of sweat turn to bubbles that grow together and gather under his chin, then drop – splash – onto the table below.

Pulling a couple of prayer bracelets out of my pocket, I offer them to the van der Sloots.  First I tie one on Anita’s arm, then ask  Paulus if he would like one.  He lifts his clench-fisted arm, shaking as if he has Parkinson’s disease, and tries very hard to hold it up.  What a pathetic form of a man he is, I think – a very different person from the one who stood so brazenly in his front yard in the wee hours that first morning, facing down Aruban police and our men from home.  I take my time tying the bracelet, very, very slowly, and explain the meaning of the three cords of yarn.

“Paulus, this bracelet stands for a Bible verse.  It’s Ecclesiastes 4:12.  “Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves.  A cord of three stands is not quickly broken.””  I finish the tying and gently pat the knot.  “There you go.”

And right then the bracelet looks different to me.  I see the three cords as the suspects, and the knot as the end holding them together as Paulus.  It’s not just clear – it’s crystal clear.   There are potentially four people who know what happened to Natalee.  We need the knot to come loose and the three to unravel.

Anita gets a kitchen towel and first blots Paulus’s head.  Then she lays it on the pools of sweat that have formed on the table in front of him and, in one big swipe, folds the towel over and cleans it away.

No one could have predicted that this encounter would take place.  And if Greta Van Susteren had not been there, I would not have gone inside.

A few days later Paulus is arrested and questioned by Aruban police after they say he changed his story about what time he picked up Joran on the night Natalee disappeared.

School?  College?

Could it be that something was lost in translation.  Maybe Jo-An could clarify.




I think they call high school college in Aruba.  Sebastian would be what we would call a freshman in high school.  Valentijn is going to actual college.



An example would be Colegio Arubano which is what we would consider a high school unless it's a K-12 like ISA.   But it's definitely NOT a college like in the states.
