maybe not all -- but, I would guess most of Dr. Phil's legal costs were going to be incurred anyways as it's legal team is on retainer.

Absolutely Wreck.  Even at that, CBS and Dr. Phil have deep pockets.  Wonder where the Kalpoe's are going to come up with their part?

I stand with the girl, Natalee Holloway.

"I can look back over the past 10 years and there were no steps wasted, and there are no regrets,'' she said. "I did all I knew to do and I think that gives me greater peace now." "I've lived every parent's worst nightmare and I'm the parent that nobody wants to be," she said.

http://www.amigoe.com/english/172630-over-25-billion-dollars-channeled-in-ten-years

Over 25 billion dollars channeled in ten years   
THURSDAY, 26 DECEMBER 2013 10:52

ORANJESTAD — An estimated 25 billion dollars on black money has been channeled via Aruba from 2002 up to and including 2011. In 2011 it regards 3.6 billion dollars, according to the report ‘Illicit Financial Flows from Development Countries’ published by Global Financial Integrity (GFI) last week. It regards proceeds from crime, corruption or tax evasion.With this, Aruba is 31st on a list of 144 development countries mostly dealing with illicit financial flows. China, Russia and Mexico lead the list. Of the Caribbean islands only Trinidad and Tobago (28th place) is higher than Aruba. Also the Bahamas score high with a 49th place and approx. 15 billion on black money in a period of ten years. In total these illicit financial flows amounted to almost 950 billion dollars in 2011. A substantial increase compared to 2010 (832 billion dollars). It’s money that doesn’t go to the economy due to tax evasion and white-collar crime.

Economist Dev Kar, author of the report, puts the Aruba figure into perspective slightly. On the site of the Caribisch Netwer, he’s quoted as follows: “The data from tax paradises such as Aruba is estimation. We’re always non-committal because they’re not liberal when it comes to providing information.”

The Amigoe contacted Minister of Finance, Juan David Yrausquin (AVP) for a reaction. However, he prefers to comment later on. Evelyn Wever-Croes, leader of opposition party MEP is somewhat shocked by the amounts mentioned in the report. “But not about the fact itself. It’s evident that this happens. We saw this recently with the millionaire election campaign of AVP.” Croes was head of Tax Inspection until the end of 2001.

“Tax evasion was always at the top of Siad’s agenda but Siad lacked the means and personnel to take action.” With this Croes referred to more staff in the control dept., more trained and experienced inspectors to arrange assessments. “And no interference of ministers in their work. In the past year the government interfered with the functioning of Siad and demanded that steep discounts be given on tax arrears of people who campaigned for them. To do this they even dismissed senior officials who refused to give these discounts. All of this clears the way for tax evasion”, Croes said.

http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/bernie-kerik-rips-attorney-joe-tacopina-bar-complaint-article-1.1560478


Bernard Kerik, the disgraced former NYPD commissioner, accuses attorney Joe Tacopina of fraud, deceit, misrepresentation and list of other legal abuses 
Kerik files complaint before the disciplinary committee of the New York Supreme Court, Appellate Division for the First Judicial Department. Tacopina adamantly denies going rogue on his client


By Teri Thompson , Michael O'keeffe AND Nathaniel Vinton / NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
Saturday, December 28, 2013, 9:35 PM

 Long before spearheading Alex Rodriguez’s cutthroat campaign to beat a steroid rap, attorney Joe Tacopina stood on the Bronx courthouse steps beside another fallen New York star — ex-NYPD Commissioner Bernard Kerik.

It was June 30, 2006, and Kerik had just pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor charges. The former top cop admitted accepting a $165,000 gift of apartment renovations seven years before from an allegedly mob-tied company seeking to do business with the city.

Tacopina assured his client that his legal troubles were over and he was free to focus on his security consulting business in the Middle East.

Privately, Kerik’s friends say, Tacopina described the violations this way: “Like pissing on the sidewalk.”
Two years later, Kerik was federal inmate No. 84888-054, sitting in a Maryland cell and wondering if the slick defense attorney helped the feds put him behind bars.

Kerik, a 9/11 hero and one of the most decorated police commissioners in New York City history, is now a free man looking for answers.

Kerik, in a bar complaint filed Friday, accused Tacopina of engaging in “conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, and/or misrepresentation” — along with a list of explosive legal abuses:

Cooperating with federal prosecutors and revealing information crucial to Kerik’s defense to the government without informing or receiving consent from his client.

Former NYPD Commissioner Bernard Kerik Accuses Attorney Joe Tacopina of Fraud, Deceit and Misrepresentation … Yes, Same Atty Tacopina Who Defended Joran Van der Sloot

Quote
Joe Tacopina fires back and responds to Kerick’s accusations,“This is such bullsh*t, reheated dog food.”

UPDATE I: Misrepresentation, say it isn’t so. But most will remember Joe Tacopina from his days of defending Joran Van der Sloot, the Dutch teen who most all sane thinking people believe had something to do with Natalee Holloway’s disappearance and death in Aruba in 2005. Watch below, yet another blast from the past with Joe Tacopina, Steve Cohen and Red discussing the Natalee Holloway investigation and those last with her, Joran Vander Sloot, Deepak Kalpoe and Satish Kalpoe on Court TV.

I'm sure there are all sorts of people in Aruba.  People forget.  Aruba is one of the cheaper destinations which makes it more popular.  Sad but true.

You can look up statistics here.  I'm sure there is a way to check previous years:

Watching that video brings so much back. Knowing what we do now, and what was to come in Peru, it's just hard to watch and listen to Cohen and Tacky. Cohen, with his slick "face of the investigation" to try to make the case more palatable for tourists, and JT stating matter of factly that if there were evidence, it's almost certainly gone now, seems to come from a confident lawyer representing his guilty client. Aruba's sands will always be tinged with Natalee's blood. The Aruban authorities in power are guilty of obstructing justice for Natalee and guilty of accessory to murder of Stephany! What a slime ball JT is!

Isn't this rather interesting though that tourism from the United States for 2012 in Aruba is still not back to 2005 and pre-Natalee Holloway disappearance levels of 2004.

Missed the show, but just listened to the podcast!  Great show! 

Thanks Red, Dana, Blink, Klaas, our marvelous mods; and all who contribute here at Scared Monkeys! 

Happy New Year to you and yours! 

I'm thankful for all the happy endings in 2013, and am praying for so many that didn't have happy endings to find the answers and justice that the families and loved ones need in the new year.


P. S.  Red, please take care of that cold, I'm worried about you!

I stand with the girl, Natalee Holloway.

"I can look back over the past 10 years and there were no steps wasted, and there are no regrets,'' she said. "I did all I knew to do and I think that gives me greater peace now." "I've lived every parent's worst nightmare and I'm the parent that nobody wants to be," she said.

  Not to ask too many questions about Natalee and they would be fine?  Okay............ or what? Asking too many questions about Natalee would cause them NOT to be fine? That reassurance sounds like a threat to me!

I'd be so thrilled to vacation in a spot where my curiosity could cause me harm and a murdered girl rallied all legal authority in the place to assure that she or her family received no truth or help. Where do I buy a ticket?  Rolling Eyes
