Anita van der Sloot Interview on GMA with John Quinones
Anita van der Sloot is the mother of Joran van der Sloot, a young man believed to have killed Stepany Flores and Natalee Holloway. She speaks out in her first interview here. As a mother, I don’t think there could be any greater pain in life than to know you have a murderer for a son. My heart goes out to his victims first and foremost, but it also goes out to her, too. I see her as a victim, too. I hope in someway she can find it in her heart to love Joran despite his sickness.

ABC News is now reporting that Joran van der Sloot’s mom, Anita, gave an interview to the De Telegraaf and has apparently changed her stance on believing what Joran is capable of. ABC’s news article is titled,”Joran van der Sloot’s Mom Says He ‘Could Have Done Something’ to Peruvian Woman.'”
Read moreWhen I translate the Dutch paper into English with Google, it reads, “My son is sick in the head.” According to the article, Anita broke her long silence in an interview with the Associated Press, and said she can’t rule out that Joran “slain” Stephany Flores. Shortly before Stephany’s death, Anita said that she spoke to Joran and he sounded paranoid. “He felt monitored and reviewed”.
It is fascinating to read that Anita said that Joran believed he was responsible for his dad’s early death. Why would he ever feel that unless he put his dad under undue stress?!
ABC quoted Anita as saying about Natalee Holloway, “I believed Joran. Despite his many lies. I felt that he didn’t have anything to do with the disappearance of Natalee Holloway in 2005. He had left her on the beach. I still believe that.”
Anita goes on, “After he was arrested for Natalee’s disappearance, he was traumatized,” the paper quoted her as saying, “We made a big mistake then. We sent him to the Netherlands to study. He should have gone to a closed clinic, he needed psychological help even back then. He wasn’t getting any rest, he was being persecuted.”
She said, “He lied so much, that we became desperate. He said to me too, ‘Mom, I sometimes don’t know any more if something is a lie or the truth. Joran is sick in his head, but he didn’t want any help.”
The saddest thing I saw was in ABC’s article. They wrote on behalf of Anita, “And she said she thinks it is time to ‘let Joran go.'”
No matter what I child did, I get sad when a parent no longer stands beside their child. I am not saying that she should support what he has done, agree with it nor approve of it — that would be wrong. It’s okay to acknowledge the nightmare, but she can still love him, even in his sickness. There is no other love as special as a parent’s love, and if Anita pulls away from Joran, she is another cold heart, if you ask me.

Joran van der Sloot’s ex-girlfriend speaks out about Joran Friday on ABC’s 20/20. Don’t forget to set your DVRs. It’s always fascinating to look into the world of a psychopath, isn’t it? If only we could truly understand…

Joran van der Sloot being escorted by Peruvian police.
“El Comercio,” a Peruvian newspaper, is reporting (in Spanish) that Joran gave a totally different account of what happened the night Flores was murdered to Chilean officials on June 3 before he was deported back to Peru where he confessed to killing Flores.
Read moreJoran allegedly told the Chilean police that Stephany started talking to him at the casino, that later they were both in a car that was stopped by a white vehicle with 2 men wearing police uniforms (with shields and uniforms), who put them in their car and asked for money from Joran.
At some point, Joran talks about going back to his hotel room and finding a man in his bed, with a pistol in his belt, and another man emerged from the bathroom with a knife. One of the guys supposedly hit Flores. Joran says these were the same guys that pulled them over earlier.
I suspect the story goes that these men must have killed Stephany, at this point.
A reader of Eyes for Lies blog, “L”, gave me the heads up on this story (thanks!) and “L” suggests that Joran must not have realized that there were security cameras on him at this point.
Oops!! Do you think that might have helped the police get a confession? How many stories will Joran ultimately tell? He has a track record of changing things all the time.
The security/surveillance cameras are not going to give Joran much wiggle room, but I don’t believe Joran’s most recent confession, either, that he came back from getting coffee, and finds Flores on his computer searching for him. The idea that she was just sitting around in her underwear (and nothing else), goofing off on his computer, and then confronts a man she supposedly realizes is the “Joran van der Sloot”, I’m not buying that either. He still hasn’t come 100% clean, if you ask me, or maybe the police haven’t released all the details…
