Joran Van der Sloot to Remain Free

The big story today is that Aruban officials don’t have anything new against Joran Van der Sloot, and his friends. CNN is reporting that Charges (are) dismissed in Holloway case. The report says there is not enough evidence to support that Natalee died as “a result of violent crime”.

“Though the charges have been dismissed, “this does not imply that, if new serious evidence were to be found, this case could never be tried in court again.”

It would be possible to [sic] so under the statute of limitations, a six-year period for involuntary manslaughter and 12 years for homicide.”

What do you think?

Do you think this is fair? Do you think that Joran Van der Sloot knows more than he is telling, or do you believe him?

Here is my opinion.

The Line Up

Fox News has a show called The Line Up hosted by Kimberly Guilfoyle on Saturday and Sunday nights. I happened to stumble upon it last night by accident. The show covered some interesting stories.

Sabrina Paige Aisenberg

The Aisenbergs gave their first TV interview in light of new leads being reported by police in the past week. I have looked online to see if Fox posted this video interview, but they did not.

During the interview, the Aisenbergs talked about how they felt about the new leads (details of which have not been released by the police). The Aisenbergs said they believed the leads were likely generated by their daughter’s age enhanced photo which showed what Sabrina would look like today, at the age of ten–ten years after her disappearance.

Read moreI found the Aisenbergs to be nervous and anxious–very notably so. While they verbally said they were hopeful, and smiled on cue when talking about it, all other times the two looked stressed out, if not even slightly paranoid, which was a hot spot for me. Their behaviors were not consistent with what they were saying.

If they are innocent, why on earth would they be nervous? It wasn’t a happy nervousness, either.

We know the Aisenbergs know the media well, and are used to giving interviews–so that likely isn’t the reason for their nerves.

On that note, they weren’t this nervous when they first reported Sabrina missing ten years ago. They were calm as cucumbers then compared to now. It wasn’t even a comparison. It most definitely raises my eyebrows another time. I first wrote about this case June 28, 2005.

Drew Peterson

Also on the show last night was a neighbor of Drew Peterson. I believe it was Pam Bosco, but I can’t be 100% sure because I didn’t write the woman’s name down. Either way, a neighbor called to say that Stacy had told her about the gun that was fired into her garage and nearly missed her.

The caller gave details of her conversation with Stacy. She talked confidentially and self-assured–explaining what was said between the two in detail. She gave credibility to Stacy’s sister, Cassandra Cales, and casted more shadows of doubt over Drew, again.

If what Drew said, that he believed Stacy was embarrassed by discharging the gun by accident, Stacy wouldn’t have gone around and told her family and neighbors about her accident. This is inconsistent.

When we are embarrassed, we don’t want to talk about what we did because it makes us feel inadequate and insecure all over again, and again, each time we tell the story.

DP Funnels Quarter of a Million to Son

The latest news from Fox is that Drew Peterson transferred $250,000 to his son in the weeks after Stacy’s disappearance.

It’s another piece of the puzzle–a piece that I don’t think bodes well for Peterson, but I can’t think of one thing Peterson has done in the weeks since his wife disappeared that is positive, or that does bode well for him. Can you?

McCann News

Other news is that a BBC Crimewatch producer, who befriended the McCanns while on holiday at the Mark Warner resort in Praia da Luz, has come forward to say that she believes the McCanns are innocent.

Read moreBridget O’Donnell says that her partner ran into a “relaxed and friendly” Gerry on the night of May 3rd. If O’Donnell is a credible witness, it has to throw some doubt into the theory that the McCann’s accidentally killed their daughter.

People who cover-up an accidental death of a loved one have a highly likelihood of being jittery and nervous–most specifically within hours of the death–unless they are psychopathic. In my own personal opinion, I do not see the typical traits of a psychopath in either of the McCanns, though I confess, I am not expert.

I don’t find any video of O’Donnell talking, unfortunately, to give a further breakdown of her comments.

Sam Parker Case

Per multiple requests, I will write about the Sam and Theresa Parker next week should all go well with my schedule. Several people volunteered to do some transcribing for me. If you are interested to transcribe this video, please let me know.

Peterson’s Website Shut Down

News is out today that Drew Peterson’s website, DefendDrew.com, is shut down. That’s not surprising.

What surprised me, however, was a poll I found yesterday in the Chicago Sun Times asking people if they would support Drew. Three percent of people polled said they would support him!

The Chicago Tribune is also reporting that they spoke to Stacy’s younger sister, Cassandra Cales, yesterday. Cales recounted a story that Stacy told her where Drew asked Stacy to go into the garage, and into the refrigerator to retrieve a soda. When she did, she told her sister she heard a loud bang, that a gun was fire, and a bullet came through the walls, and hit the floor near where she was standing. Others news outlets have reported that Stacy showed the bullet holes to Cales.

Drew’s account of the story today? Stacy fired the gun but was probably too embarrassed to admit it. Drew says Stacy was fascinated by guns.

Unbelievable.

Pay My Legal Fund; Then I’ll Search for Stacy

Have you seen the news today?

Clearly, the priorities of this fund are off the mark. Pam Bosco says it best, “”His best defense is to find Stacy. Let’s put that as a priority, Drew.”
