Hi BB. The server was down for a while. I kept trying to log in and nothing happened.  

[bleachedblack]

Hey BT seems fine now.

[BTgirl]

Hey BT seems fine now.

Yep. Big thanks to Red and Dugga!

[Tamikosmom]

eh, wasn't Paulus a substitute judge?

You are right.

Also ... according to this June 28, 2005 NOVA interview ... Paulus van der Sloot concedes that he had many personal/working relationships with those within the ALE and prosecutor's office who were involved in the Natalee Holloway case.  Conflicts of interests abounded in this Aruban investigation from day one.

June 28, 2005

REPLACEMENT JUDGE

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

PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE
 
Reporter (Twan Huys): Do you know the people very well, for example, the people here from the public prosecutors' office that ordered your detention?

Paulus 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?
 
Paulus van der Sloot: Yes.
 
Reporter (Twan Huys): Mrs. Croes.
 
Paulus van der Sloot: Yes.

INVESTIGATIVE TEAM
 
Reporter (Twan Huys): Yes, and what does that mean when your colleagues stop by to arrest you?

Paulus 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?

Paulus 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.

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

Paulus van der Sloot: Yes.

I was gone all day, and when I got back the first thing I did was try to get my monkey fix. Imagine my panic when I was monkeyless!!!!

It's an old Solo Di Pueblo article calling Beth a terrorist.  The article is from December 2005.

I don't mind change, but it looks like the new forum will have a set up more like the one at BFN, and I have never been able to find my way around there.
