09/15 The Disappearance of Natalee
I would like to know how many of you have ever been to Aruba, or out of the country. I have been to Aruba many times, just got back a week ago and am going for 6 more between Nov.-March. Aruba is one of the safest islands which is why I go there. I have been to Mexico, Jamaica, Freeport in the Bahamas, Costa Rica, and Panama and was petrified to walk alone during the day, never mind night. I have also been to Antigua, Puerto Rico, and Barbados, and would never walk alone at night at either of those places. In Aruba I always walk alone at night because it is SAFE! I should mention I am an early 40's woman. The whole island of Aruba should not take the fall for something that happened in which 3-4 people may or may not be involved. Take a look at this website: http://travel.state.gov/family/family_issues/death/death_594.html and Aruba does not even make the list. What about all the people missing in Mexico and Jamaica where the police did not help at all. All Aruban government employees had a half day of work, then the second half was spent looking for Natalee. This was all Aruban Government employees. This was in the beginning of all of this. Beth may have caused issues when she immediately started being the judge, jury and
executioner for the three boys and Joran's father. She went immediately to the Van der Sloot home and accused him within hours of getting off the plane. She, herself, may have interfered with the investigation, and also clued Joran in that he was a suspect, which would have given him time to change his story or hide the body, this if he really is guilty. Beth is trying to run the show and if someone does not agree with her, she resents it. As someone else said, who would let an 18 year old go on a trip which was VERY poorly supervised and was not school sponsored? There were no bed checks, not meeting times or areas while on the trip. Supposedly the "chaperone's" were only there in case of illness. Why did only one "chaparone" stay when the finally figured out she was missing about 9-10 hours later? Why did it take so long to figure out she was missing? Because there really were no REAL chaperone's, they were just adults on the trip who could be called in if needed. Why are none of the other kids from the school talking? Initially they were and they have changed their stories from Natalee yelling out the Kalpoe car window "Woo Aruba!" to some saying they begged her not to get in the car, and now they say they did not see her get in the car. Now Beth says that she knows for a fact that her daughter thought the car was a taxi. How could she know that? The kids initially said she was not drinking, now they say she was. At this point, Beth will do anything to keep the story in the news. What ever happened to the CT honeymooner that is missing? You never hear anything about that anymore. Beth needs to let things take their course and let the police do their job.
