1. I think it is a shame that there was no evidence
(that probably was destroyed) to show this guy killed Hollaway. If so, this young woman would still be alive. I think the authorities in Aruba should be investigated.

8. Except, the young women he has alleged to have murdered has a family that
is rich and "connected" in Peru. Thank goodness.

16. His father is dead this time around
so hopefully he's all on his own without his rich daddy to grease the skids for him now.

6. He's not going to like being guest of the Chilean Caribineros.

Augusto Pinochet was a Caribinero. He's probably going to be extradited to Peru, but he will be pretty much meat by then.

9. He must be under contract with BP.
I was just thinking the other day that the only thing that might get the MSM off the Obama-bashing oil story is Natalie Holloway.

10. I wonder if there were other women he did away with, assuming he's guilty of offing these two. nt

14. Interesting point.
There may have been others, but it looks to me like he was a serial rapist who murdered when his victims resisted. So... may or may not be other murder victims, but I'm quite sure there are a bunch of rape victims. I'm willing to bet a Peruvian prison won't be very enjoyable to a wealthy foreign white boy... and I won't be shedding any tears for him.

11. His attorney says:
Joran van der Sloot has been falsely accused of murder once before. The fact is he wears a bull's-eye on his back now and he is a quote-unquote usual suspect when it comes to allegations of foul play," Tacopina said.

How does one get falsely accused of murder twice in 5 years, in two separate occasions, under similar circumstances? I imagine the odds are comparable to being struck by lightning AND winning powerball.

13. Good. Hopefully they can find enough evidence for a conviction this time.
This one might be a little harder for him to wiggle out of.

15. I heard earlier that he had also been involved in human sex trafficking in Thailand...
That was news to me. Too bad no charges were filed. A prison in Thailand would have taken the smirk right off his face.

19. And the MSM goes wild!
Their executives give a collective sigh of relief now that they can fill the airwaves with a missing-white-woman story instead of the BP gusher or the Gaza Flotilla Massacre...
