Natalee Case Discussion #703 12/8 - 12/11//2007

Could be a camera



Similar to this - I know it's not like this one but could be similar

Could be a cell phone:

It must be Anita's camera.  Remember she said they took her camera in the search of the house and she whined about her school projects that were on it.  I bet she didn't know Paulus had the camera with him the night he and Joran met Natalee.  I would guess that this particular casino video and other video from that night showed PVDS with a small silver camera--thus they took Anita's camera in the search. 

Exactly!  That's what I have been saying but no one reads my posts except my Robots.

Robots:

In both short clips at the casino I have seen lately he hits his drink hard. He even kinda grimaces(Not the right word)after drinking a big drink in the video and puts his head down like it was strong. Did Paul just learn that he's a failure and will never be a judge? Did he get hammered the night Natalee went missing? I wonder if that person in the video is drinking the same drink that PVDS has here?

Looks like Paulus has a wedding ring on his right hand in this picture, too.

How did ABC get that casino video?  I can't remember.

Could even be a small videocam.IMO

Yep it looks like a camera to me.  Looks a lot like my camera/video cam, small screen viewer.

Wow; so that new prosecutor actually said that they (meaning he and his associates, I take it) promised the suspects that they wouldn't prosecute the case after the end of this year!  Big incentive for them to talk; I mean, really, he had to be aware of their previous incarcerations and their ability to keep quiet.  I hate to admit this, but this latest farce appears to have been nothing more than a choreographed act to try to appease prospective tourists prior to their closing the case.  I really hope that they find that they've not only underestimated prospective tourists, but enraged them with these blatent insults to intelligence.  Wow.

[Scandi]

The thing I am asking if is a camera is at Paulus left elbow, not directly in front of him.  It could be a small video camera even.  Appears to have a wide strap. 

I think it is a prop he used in his ruse along with Joran to play the role of tourist. 

Also recall Anita mentioning her camera at great length.  There is a reason she did that.

Is this her camera and Paulus is using Mommy's camera as a prop to appear to the tourist girls to also be a tourist as we know Joran claimed to be?

Just another of those strange coincidents it is now appearing we will never have answers for.

.

yes, a strap of some kind

Robots,

Again, you are my hero as evidently you are the only other one who can see it!

 

Yes, it has a wide black strap like something that tacky Anita would stick on her camera she was whining about the police taking. 

.

i saw it immediately 

Hi Robots,  How Funny, but what I see is what I think looks like a glass of beer sitting on the table that probably belongs to the guy in the gray shirt sitting this side of Paulus.

[Anna]

Too big to be a cell phone and shaped oddly for one, too chunky.

"Hans Mos told The Associated Press Friday he will drop the case unless prosecutors agree before the New Year that they have strong enough evidence to go to court."

Isn't it just sickening!

He's trying to look like a tourist to the girls.

Gives new meaning to the term dirty old man.

Anita must have seen the video and knew to blather on about the police taking HER camera.  Denial.

Dirty Hands...

[Anna]

Dutch wear wedding rings on their right hands for some reason. 

[amanda]

Yes, Anna, it is sickening; the whole situation is sickening and insulting.  I think that I read that, not only did he tell the AP he'd drop the case if he didn't have enough evidence, but that he had "promised the suspects" that he wouldn't prosecute after December 31 (like they haven't really always known that). 

I hate to make a personal attack on anyone's appearance, but what's that Joe T. wearing?  Was he chased out of this country for dressing funny?

[klaasend]

Camcorder???

[amanda]

Perhaps Anita's (lack of) fashion sense is rubbing off on him.

[klaasend]

How did ABC get that casino video?  I can't remember.

We never found out but heard that Posner wasn't happy about it.

[amanda]

That does look like a camcorder.  Since when are any types of cameras allowed into casinos?

[Anna]

Maybe Freddie wasn't the photographer after all.

 

Your own father!

.

[amanda]

Is that another law/rule that the Van der Sloots are allowed to break?

[Anna]

Dutch wear wedding rings on their right hands for some reason. 

I can remember seeing my Grandmother quilting with her right hand and her wedding rings were on it.  Maybe we can verify with NYC.
