Peter de Vries Promo

I saw this link over at Steve Huff’s blog in the comment section. It’s a preview to the show that will air on Sunday in the Netherlands and in Aruba.

I am just wondering why Joran hasn’t been arrested yet. If he isn’t arrested before the show airs, there is more to the story than what we know again.

I got a link to the website of the AD the biggest paper in the Netherlands. Where there also is the link to the page of Vkmag.com. This is an article about the case. I will translate the article at my best.

The headline says ‘Joran confesses murder on Holloway

Amsterdam-Joran van der Sloot possibly has confessed the murder on Natalee Holloway. This will appear in an interview between Peter R de Vries and Aruban prosecutor Hans Mos. A clip of the interview has leaked out on the internet but the link to the video has been removed from the website of Peter R de Vries, Vkmag.com, a weblog that discovered the text, has published a screenprint of there foundings.

On this weblog you can read a conversation between de Mos en de Vries about a hidden camera confession from van der Sloot. Mos says that the video inducted a re-opening of the case. De Vries could have solved the murder on Natalee Holloway with this.

De Vries has returned from Aruba last weekend, where he had informed the Aruban authorities on his findings.

The justice department on Aruba are now investigating the new clues on the case, and have said that the new information had also come from Peter R de Vries.

‘This information can in considerable extent lead too the solving of this case’ says the justice department.

The solution on the case is thanks too a hidden camera action which Peter R de Vries had worked on for 2 months.

The mother of Natalee Holloway, Beth Twitty is in the Netherlands on invitation of Peter R de Vries. She has been notifyed today by Peter R de Vries of his break-through.

SBS6 will broadcoast a special 2 hours during edition on sunday night 21:30, which will have a detailed final end of this mysterious disapearance.

New Holloway Evidence?

The Associated Press has released news today that Aruban prosecutors are looking at new evidence brought to them by crime reporter Peter R. de Vries, the man who Joran Van der Sloot tossed wine at a few weeks back.

Information from reporter Peter R. de Vries may help resolve what happened to the American teenager, who vanished during a May 2005 school vacation to the Dutch Caribbean island, the prosecutor’s office said in a statement.

The statement did not say specifically what the new evidence was.

“This information may shed a new light on the mode of which Natalee Holloway has died and the method by which her body disappeared,” the prosecutor’s office said.

I wonder what will materialize from this…

If you see the news develop, please keep me posted, and many thanks to the anonymous commenter (from Amsterdam) for this tip!

UPDATED:
The same anonymous person also wrote: “Joran did it! http://vkmag.com/” I don’t know the validity of this website, or anything about the commenter, but it sure looks interesting if this is what develops…

Joran Van der Sloot Acts Out

Joran Van der Sloot showed poor impulse control on a Dutch talk show Friday. After a the show ended, Van der Sloot is seen getting up and tossing a glass of wine into a crime reporters eyes: a crime reporter who questioned Van der Sloot’s honesty.

This does not bode well for Van der Sloot considering he is still a person of interest in the disappearance of Natalie Holloway. Does Van der Sloot have a problem when he doesn’t get his way?

I’ve always liked Clint Van Zant. What he says in the video above reflects my own feelings as well.

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.
