Natalee Case Discussion #833 6/2/10 - 6/4/10

[wreck]

It's so disturbing to me that Stephany's cousin said that they recently discussed the Natalee Holloway case and Joran. Did she not know what he looked like? I can't see her going with him willingly. He had to have drugged her in the casino and then again in her car. This is so sad but hopefully will bring some kind of closure to both families who's lives he shattered.

Something is odd -- the fact that reports are that Stephany really didn't go with boys and also supposedly "date rape" drugs were found in her car.

Wreck - that may just be the most tactful thing I've seen posted here in 5 years!  Thank you for that smile, I needed it!

A Quick Off-Topic

Many thanks to all the monkeys for the warm greetings earlier today.  It's good to see so many veteran monkeys -- and new ones, too -- though the circumstances of our gathering are unhappy.

A special thanks to klaasend, for helping me to restart here at SM.

This has been a long road, and a few miles still remain.

.

Nice to meet you and welcome back!

CNN just reported on TV that an Alabama senator or lawyer has filed charges against jurin for extortion. something about jurin asked for $$$$ in exchange for the wherabouts of Natalee's remains!

Are you kidding?? When was this offer made, I wonder?

I'm thinking that the loss of memory and control may have been the reason for the roofies.

Bottom line -- I would rather Joran has punishment meted out in Peru than in the USA. (We would go too easy on him - even under our stiffest punishments)!!

My thoughts exactly.
They should have gone along with it and then had him arrested for extortion (although I'm sure he was lying).
Wonder why this is just coming to light?

[SunnyinTX]

he gets a minimum of 25 years in prison in Peru

http://www.andina.com.pe/Espanol/Noticia.aspx?id=LazrXTG3MGQ=

NICE, 25 years minimum in a Peru prison!  That's better than death.

He won't make it 25 days...my guess is Stephany's father has long arms

Hi there, Sunny!

Yes, this time the political connections are all on the side of the victim.  The father of this girl can see to it that Joran leads a VERY miserable existence.  He will be the victim each and every day.

Hi Anna!!  I want him to live a long time . I want him to suffer every minute of every hour of every day.......I want him to beg to be put out of his misery......

U.S. authorities charge Van der Sloot with extortion

BIRMINGHAM, AL (WBRC) - Joran Van der Sloot, the longtime suspect in the disappearance of missing Mountain Brook teenager Natalee Holloway, has been accused of offering $250,000 in exchange for her whereabouts.

In a criminal complaint filed Thursday by the U.S. Attorney in Birmingham, Van der Sloot is accused of offering $250,000 to a person in Birmingham in exchange for information about the whereabouts of her remains in Aruba.  Holloway disappeared in Aruba in May 2005 during a senior trip to the island.

Joyce White Vance, the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Alabama, has scheduled a news conference for 5 p.m. Thursday to discuss the criminal complaint, which was filed Thursday in federal court in Birmingham.

Van der Sloot was arrested earlier in the day in Chile on charges of murder in the death of a young woman in Peru. He's accused of killing Stephany Flores, 21, in a hotel in Lima, Peru, on Sunday, five years to the day after Holloway disappeared.

Fernando Ovalle, deputy spokesman of Chile's national investigative police, told the Associated Press Van der Sloot was arrested while traveling in a taxi, about halfway to the coast on Route 68.  Ovalle said Van der Sloot did not resist arrest and has been calm under detention.

Flores was killed exactly five years after the May 30, 2005, disappearance of Holloway during a high school trip in Aruba, a Dutch Caribbean island where van der Sloot's late father was a prominent judge.

Van der Sloot was twice arrested but later released for lack of evidence in the 2005 disappearance of Holloway in Aruba. Prosecutors said van der Sloot is still their main suspect in the case even though he was never charged.

No trace of her has been found and van der Sloot remains the main suspect in the case, Ann Angela, spokeswoman for the Aruba prosecutor's office, said Wednesday.

Two years ago, a Dutch television crime reporter captured hidden-camera footage of van der Sloot saying he was with Holloway when she collapsed on a beach from being drunk. He said he believed she was dead and asked a friend to dump her body in the sea.

Judges subsequently refused to arrest van der Sloot on the basis of the tape.

A spokeswoman for Holloway's mother, Beth Twitty of Mountain Brook, Alabama, told the AP the family was aware of the development in Peru but would have no comment.

De Volkskrant

AMSTERDAM - Als Joran van der Sloot in Zuid-Amerika wordt aangehouden en wordt overgedragen aan Peru, wacht hem in dat land een strafproces, vermoedelijk op verdenking van moord of doodslag. Hij geniet geen bijzondere rechtsbescherming als Nederlander. Nederland zal naar verwachting niet om zijn uitlevering vragen, bij gebrek aan belang.

De Volkskrant (Dutch Newspaper)

Amsterdam - If JVDS will be arrested in South America and turned over to Peru he will face trial in that country, probably on charges of murder or manslaughter. He is not entitled to any special judicial protection being a Dutch citizen. The Netherlands will probably not request for an extradition because of lack of interest.
