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?

/in /by

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…

McCanns Release New Sketch

/in /by

The McCanns have released a second sketch in the hunt for Madeleine on Sunday. According to Clarence Mitchell, a vacationer in Praia da Luz, Gail Cooper, spotted this man on April 20 on the beach of the resort where the McCann’s stayed. They noticed him because he stood on the beach, alone, in the pouring rain.

Furthermore, he approached Cooper, and told her he was collecting money for a local orphanage. Then a few days later Cooper says she saw the man on the beach with a group of children. Yet when investigators working for the McCann camp looked, they found no such orphanage.

It’s a bit odd.

Furthermore, does this sketch resemble the sketch created by Jane Tanner’s description? And corroborated by Irishman Martin Smith?

I believe it does.

What is Brodsky thinking? Or, is he thinking at all?

Please know it is my policy to not comment on any attorney or his behavior. I believe all people deserve to be represented because if we didn’t represent everyone, including people we are suspicious of, we wouldn’t have a fair legal system.

Joran Van der Sloot Acts Out

/in , /by

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.
