The Suspects Dance (http://www.jibjab.com/starring_you/receipt/680506)

[Luke Davis]

Beth Twitty has alleged in televised interviews that Joran van der Sloot and the Kalpoe brothers know more than they have told, and, at least one of them sexually assaulted or raped her daughter. Twitty has stated that she has received copies of police statements stating that Joran van der Sloot admitted having sex with Holloway at his home and described private details of her. She has never released copies of the alleged statement, and Vinda de Sousa, former Holloway-Twitty family Aruban attorney, has indicated that no such statement was made. [54] In addition, Dompig has denied that any such statements were made, stating that all three suspects have consistently denied having sexual intercourse with Holloway. [55]

Thank you FM for letting me know that. I took some time off from this case simply because there was no information and I needed to step back and take a breather.

We respectfully request that the Holiday Inn in Aruba name the room that Natalee stayed in before she was brutally murdered after her. The "Natalee Hollaway Memorial Room" will serve as a reminder that the Aruban police are dangerously incompetent and that you can't trust the Dutch.

If Holiday Inn refuses to do this then we, the undersigned, will refuse to stay in a Holiday Inn until our demands are met.

Texas EquuSearch, a organization that helps look for missing persons, said Monday it will help look for the 23-year-old Bolingbrook woman.

Volunteers searched forests near the couple's home over the weekend.

"I guess if it were my daughter, I'd want everybody in the world out there looking for her," Georgia Szkolny, of New Lennox, said Sunday. "I can't imagine what her family is going through."

On Friday, state police sent divers into a retention pond near the Peterson's home.

Natalee Holloway

We had just had celebrated our big high school graduation and were scheduled to go to Aruba the next morning. There were one hundred and twenty five of our best friends going down to celebrate after finally graduating from Mountain Brook High School. A group of us had spent the night at my house the so that we could get up early and all head to the airport together. We talked about all the fun things we wanted to do and how excited we all were, as we were all completely oblivious to what was about to happen. I never would have guessed that this would be the last time that Natalee would be in my house with all of us.

Our flight was scheduled to leave at seven in the morning so we had to get up very early. None of us really had slept the night before because we were all too excited. We finally arrived in Aruba and were greeted by buses that were going to take us to our resort. It was an all inclusive hotel that had tons of places to eat and bars on the property. We had to decide who was going to be in our rooms before we arrived and there was a door that opened to the next room to combine them. Natalee and I shared a room with two other girls along with four more of our friends in the next room. Everyone was so excited that we immediately put on our bathing suits and headed to the pool. The first night everyone decided to stay at the hotel and just go to the bars and the casinos. We were having a ball and everyone was so laid back and care free.

As our trip was coming to a close on our last night everyone decided that we were going to ride the bus into town and go to the hot spot Carlos and Charlies. We were scheduled to go out on a day cruise on a sailboat for the day and then were going to go home and eat dinner before we headed out for our big night on the town. The sailboat was amazing and there was a bar on the boat so all of us were laying out on the front of the boat getting sun and enjoying our tropical drinks. Natalee and all of us began to talk about these guys that we had met in the casino the night before and how they had said that they were going to go to Carlos and Charlies also. None of us really had wanted to be around them, but they had come to our hotel and started conversation with all of us.

We got in from the day out on the water and ran to our rooms to shower and get ready for dinner and a crazy last night in Aruba. After enjoying a nice dinner at the hotel, all of us loaded up onto the buses and headed into town. The bar was so crowded and everyone began drinking and dancing. The bar tenders were getting people on stage to compete in contest and of course all of our friends were on stage. It began getting late and the bar was closing so all of us were forced outside into the street. Most of the group was together, but none of us could find Natalee. The bar was so crazy when everyone was leaving that there was no trying to find someone cause everyone was pushing and shoving and of course had lots to drink. Everyone began cramming into cabs and headed back to the hotel. There was another group that had gone to another bar so most of us figured Natalee had gone with them. Everyone was exhausted and ready to go to bed so when we got back to the hotel we fell right to sleep.

We woke up the next morning to find that Natalee was not in our room and figured that she had just stayed in another room. Natalee was never the type to be late and would never miss something like a flight home. It was getting close to the time we were supposed to leave for the airport and there was still no sign of Natalee. Me and some of my friends began to cry and started to seriously worry about Natalee. One of our teachers that was on the trip stayed behind and called Natalee's parents and told them to head down to Aruba immediately that Natalee didn't return home from the bar the night before. All of us were freaking out and didn't know what to do. We had tried to stay behind with our teacher but they wouldn't let us.

The night we got home everyone came over to my house to spend the night and we had heard that there was to be an announcement on the news stating that Natalee Holloway was missing on a graduation trip and hadn't returned home from Aruba. All of us were in shock and had a really hard time dealing with everything that was going on. We didn't know what to do and had no clue that our lives were about to change. One of our best friends had gone missing and we didn't know if she was dead or alive.

Thanks for sharing this, Mackin. However I have a question about your description here:

We had to decide who was going to be in our rooms before we arrived and there was a door that opened to the next room to combine them. Natalee and I shared a room with two other girls along with four more of our friends in the next room."

It's been reported that Natalee had three roommates on the trip: Ruth, Madison, and Lee. Ruth was cited as saying she shared a bed with Natalee every night of the trip.

Are you saying Natalee actually spent more time with you and two others (Holly and someone else?)in the adjoining room?

Your information about the two rooms being connected is interesting, as there has been much discussion about the key card activity for Natalee's room that morning (the room key was used at 2:25. 3:22, and 3:36 am). But the existence of a connecting door would mean that the key card activity for the adjoining room could be relevant as well (not that I think there is much chance Natalee actually returned to the hotel).

April 7, 2008 9:58 AM
Jon said...
Typo correction- in my above comment the first room key time should be 1:26 not 2:25.

Also, I have another question about something in your blog entry. You said:

"Natalee and all of us began to talk about these guys that we had met in the casino the night before and how they had said that they were going to go to Carlos and Charlies also. None of us really had wanted to be around them, but they had come to our hotel and started conversation with all of us."

Natalee's first encounter with Joran at the casino was on Sunday night.

Could the guys you are referring to, have been Joran's friends Luis and Joshua? They were were talking to MB girls in the casino bar on Sunday, perhaps they were hanging around your group the previous day as well?

Again, thanks for sharing your experience. From all I've read, Natalee seems like she was a very nice girl, I think you are lucky to have known her.

April 7, 2008 10:36 AM
Jon said...
One more thing- not a big deal since people's recollections often differ, but Laraine Watson told the FBI that Natalee spent all day Sunday on the beach, until she went to the pool at around 4:00 pm. And Lee's account of Natalee's activities on Sunday doesn't mention a sailing trip. Maybe you are getting the days mixed up and thinking of the snorkeling cruise on Saturday?

Please contact me at rholloway@comcast.net. I am Natalee's stepmom and I don't know how to get in contact with you other than here.

Mackin ... It has been my understanding that the bus ride to Carlos 'N Charlies did not take place immediately following dinner. Did Natalee and friends not go to the black jack table at the Excelsior where the encounter with Joran and Paulus van der Sloot took place.

FBI Statement
July 12, 2005

After swimming at the hotel on Sunday, WHATLEY and other classmates, including HOLLOWAY, ate dinner at a restaurant next to the hotel. After dinner they went to the casino at the hotel. A few classmates were gambling at a card table along with an "older man" and YURON VAN DER SLOOT. (Whatley 302)

HOLLOWAY TWITTY: ..... I don‘t think there was ever a question that Joran and Paulus Van Der Sloot had been in that Excelsior Casino, and, particularly, on the night of the 29th where he and his father met Natalee.

Janet,

Mackin doesn't say they departed immediately after dinner. And she may not have been part of the group that went to the casino between dinner and boarding the busses.

The information about sharing a room with Natalee is very confusing tho.

Is Mackin saying that she took Madison's place (since Madison was spending nights elsewhere with her bf) and slept in room #7114 with Nat, Ruth, and Lee?

Or that Nat spent at least one night with her in the room adjoining #7114?

Hopefully Mackin will clear this up...

Mackin,
Was Natalee in the group that spent the night at your house? And since you are stating that you stayed in her room, were you questioned by the FBI?

I know this must have been traumatic to all of you but honestly, this is the first time I've read anything about you being in the room with Natalee. It has never, to my knowledge, been mentioned there was a door connecting two rooms either.

bhammom,

Mackin was interviewed by the FBI on June 24 acc to Kalpoe log.

The part about a connecting door does match what Madison told the FBI in her July 19 302 (Holly put Whatley's toothbrush in the trash in Whatley's adjoining hotel room).

Mackin, Natalee was described as having a Scar between her shoulder and shoulder blade and Large brown freckle on her arm. Do you remember seeing that freckle?

Hi Luke .... It might have been you who posted some of the girls who went on the trip .... as far as them looking somewhat alike . The girl who is on the left ((as you look at the picture)), I think looks a little like Natalee.

It is a nice picture of her. Luke what ever became of that tennis shoe? Was that Natalee's?

Thanks for asking again sara. Actually I think it looks like a man's tennis shoe.

Apologies Luke but I looked thru all the info at the wikpedia link you gave and I couldn't find anything about the tennis shoe, maybe I missed it? :confused: Was the picture of the tennis shoe you posted, Joran's? When was it found? Was it ever tested for DNA to see if it belonged to Joran? Thanks. :patriot:

I believe it was determined not to be Joran's shoe. It was from Jossy's newspaper I think.

Thanks One2Snoop. I could not find anything on it either. Glad I am not alone. So Luke when was the shoe found and do we know the owner?

Thanks One2Snoop. I could not find anything on it either. Glad I am not alone. So Luke when was the shoe found and do we know the owner?I don't think it is important now.

Hi Luke Davis:seeya:


It appears people are getting away with murder these days. More and more it seems .

Nice to see you again here at this fine Site .
Natalee is still missing and children go missing every day with very few continually searching for them as time passes .Some, and most have only hope because no one is still looking for them anymore .

You might assume the huge rewards would work but even the 25 million for bin laden is futile.

It is so sad when a child goes missing.
