Which article are we talking about?  I missed it alltogether!  Yikes.

Our contacts in Aruba:
Have you heard anything more about "Lorenzo," the one detained yesterday?

[CaliGirl]

Rob.. I agree. I don't ever remember MSM at least in the US informing us of what was found other than panties and condoms. I can not believe they did not take teh time to speak about the other items.

Geez this bit is more important than most redundent news they share with us!

He's a drug dealer with a record? Really?  Do we know that?

I don't think we do, Nancy, but this has me wondering.

If you'll remember, the original post on tripadvisor (posted by a woman in Mountain Brook whose friend's husband was supposed to have been the chaperone who stayed behind to find Natalee) said that the police identified one of the people Natalee was seen with was a known drug dealer.

I figured that was one of the Kalpoes, or maybe Joran. Now I'm not so sure, because people are now saying that they saw Croes at C & C's that night, as well.

Don't know if any of the above is true, though.

If Aruba's anything like America, Joran being a minor may be an issue.  I remember people disputing reports about him having "anger management" issues and throwing somebody through a window because they didn't find any mental health records and convictions.  I know that mental health records (all health records, in fact) are completely confidential in America, and a hospital can't even confirm treating somebody except under certain circumstances.  I also believe that, at least in America, a minor's criminal record is sealed and not available for journalists to go snooping through.

Concerned4natalee -

My guess is the networks will all start hearing about it and reporting it soon. Also, I don’t know if this is relavant to the NH case or coincidental and therefore should be considrered UNRELIABLE until confirmed but I am made to understand that FBI and DEA agents working in Venezuela with Venezualan government officials are making their way to a village north of a town called Adicora (sp.). I don’t know where Adicora is - if anyone can help please advise.

The MSM didn't mention the foam, they didn't correctly describe the underwear, and they didn't mention the Lysol spray-bottle that is in one of the photographs and is described as containing an unknown substance.

I'm sure we all would have jumped on the teeth marks and foam, had we been aware.

[friend of monkeys]

sorry for being ignorant......how do I put my picture undermyname??

I suspect this will do it..  Go to the profile page and at the end find the phrase: Upload Avatar from your machine:

Select upload and then select a photo of yourself on your computer.  It should upload it.

i/m pretty ugly
mine might upchuck

Lol, I doubt that.

Where did the report of the foam and lysol come from?

Steve CROES right?

Found an interesting tidbit - With that vision in mind, Astrid solicited the services of an air-conditioned bus and driver; she ordered soft-drinks and sandwiches – thank you Bucuti, for the tasty club triple deckers; she summoned the Arikok National Park head-ranger Eddie Croes; The ultimate archeological authority, Egbert Oerstra; City Inspector, Marlon Pieters; The recycling plant manager of ECOTEC; Wide-Cast official, turtle expert Tom Barnes, marine biologist Byron Boukhoudt, plus representatives of Renaissance hotels, La Cabana All Suite Beach Resort, Costa Linda and Amsterdam Manor; the marketing director of the Aruba Hotel & Tourism Association, media personalities and TV reporters. The following is a small resume of issues, and yes, issues are like tissues, you deal with one, the next pops up!

Gosh, he may have a relative that's a head ranger at the National Park there..sounds like a nice connection to dump a body late at night.

I probably missed it since I've fallen about 1000 posts behind, but does anyone know why the board's been buggy today?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think these items were found in one of the earlier public searches...like a week before?

I'm glad you asked because I did not know how to do it, either.

This might have already been mentioned, but the Lysol, the Security Guard shirt and the sunglasses were found in a seperate search from the one that produced the panties.  Those items were found right after Natalee went missing - could still be something though.

Croes is an extremely common last name in Aruba.  They are likely not even related.
