Aruban Prosecutor Says Van der Sloot Confession Doesn’t Add Up

joran Aruba, Mar 1 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Well, folks, Joran van der Sloot is at it again. I first brought you the story here of Joran van der Sloot, the Dutch suspect in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway. At that time he had confessed to dumping her body in a marsh. Then it was still unclear exactly what van der Sloot was claiming had happened to Natalee, but the prosecutors were saying the story did not add up, and that facts didn’t make sense, and pretty much labeled his story “unbelievable.” Van der Sloot has also claimed that she died on the beach while they were making love and he disposed of her body at sea.

Joran van der Sloot gave an interview soon after his father’s death, which everyone hoped would shed some light on what really happened to Natalee Holloway. Joran’s father, Paulus van der Sloot died suddenly while playing tennis. He had played a huge part in the case and was questioned extensively in 2008,when his son released phone conversations with him about Natalee’s disappearance, which had occurred in 2005. Sadly, his father seems to have taken his secrets to his grave. The confession this time from Joran claimed that he had sold Natalee to a man whose name he did not know, and that she may still be alive.

Now van der Sloot, in his latest “confession” is claiming that Natalee died after accidentally falling from a balcony. According to his story, she had been using cocaine, and fell to her death, after which he dumped her body in a swamp. He told the prosecutors in Aug of 2009 (although it was just aired on Sunday) that he had, with the help of a friend which cannot be produced for interview that he had put her body in a car. Yet the car had no signs of blood and there would have been much blood from that kind of death. She was supposedly then driven to the swamp by Joran and dumped.

Aside from the fact that there was no blood on the car, the balcony is too high to fall from, and other essential key parts of the confession do not add up. They do not believe Joran to be innocent, but rather think he may be trying to confuse the facts, and make people refrain from believing anything he has said.

As pointed out on NBC this morning, although van der Sloot’s stories all have different ways in which she died, or disappeared, a few facts are always consistent: He is always the last one to see her before her disappearance being the main one. Whether he is just attempting to remain in the media spotlight or this is just some way to avoid prosecution, van der Sloot’s repeated confessions are a mockery, and completely cruel to her family and loved ones. He will surely reap what he has sown.
