RSSRed Update
Red would like everyone to know that he had to head out to the dump sooner than expected (it’s not a big deal) and that he won’t be able to post this afternoon, perhaps later.
Red in Aruba on Friday
Red has has trouble getting online, he has trouble with the wireless, and then the batteries on his laptop ran out. I talked with him this morning, and got a brief description of what he did yesterday, and he will hopefully be posting later in much greater detail.
Red’s Day on Friday:
Searched the landfill from 10 AM till 3 PM. He said it was one of the foulest and god awful smelling places he has ever been in. Fighting 95 degree temperatures and 80 percent humidity, they dug holes looking for anything that would have a date on it. If there were things with the dates, the cadavor dogs were brought in.
The went out and drove the island to try to answer some of the questions put up by members on the discussion board. These pictures include the Fishermans Huts, the Marriot and Holiday Inn and the areas in between, overview shots that cover these same areas but taken from the highest points on the island, pictures of the pond and the work being done there.
He also went through the different areas that the disapearance revolves around and got detailed information that will bring some discrepancies out in the open with the different stories that have come out.
After the trip around the island, he went to meet Julia Renfro, editor of Aruba Today, and tried to get his wifi working at a local restaurant. He saw Deepak at this restaurant. After an interesting conversation with Julia, Red headed out to Carlos and Charlies after midnight. He hung around outside to get pictures of the scene outside the Carlos and Charlies and then headed in to see the real situation.
Again there were many things that Red saw that will disprove the conventional wisdom that is out there. He also saw people that were on Joran Van Der Sloots tickle site. I was unable to get any more details as the team was heading from the dumpsite where Red had been working since 7:30 AM.
He will be making every effort to get online and add the details that we were unable to discuss over the phone to you, and hopefully pictures.
FoxNews Update: On H&C
Helicopter with spotlight over pond search area at 9:40pm EST. Working to get more info.
Natalee Holloway Update
Red is having a bit of difficulty accessing his system, so I’m posting this.
As per Aruba Today, all DNA evidence was thrown out for failure of following proper procedure and attaining proper signatures. The judge also ordered for new samples to be obtained properly.
Furthermore, the judge ruled that Joran can be interrogated by both Dutch officials and the FBI. According to sources, this interrogation will be starting tomorrow.
Why is Natalee not on FBI’s Missing Persons List
Richard Shelby, United States Senator from Alabama, replied to one of our monkeys over at the Scared Monkeys Discussion Board regarding Natalee Holloway’s disappearance and her failure to make the FBI’s Missing Persons list.
His rational is that Natalee did not disappear from US Soil. Another missing person, Amy Bradley, who disappeared in the same part of the Carribean, was on a US based cruise ship, so she was allowed on the list.
Here is an except. Please click on the image to see the full size.
We are thankful that the fine Senator has responded so, and has taken such an interest in Natalee’s disappearance. He has been instrumental in marshaling resources to help the family.
To see his full letter, please click the image below.
However, in talking to a couple people already, they brought up some examples of situations that may not fit the criteria that the Senator has outlined. If you know of any instances where a person has been put on the FBI’s Missing Persons list, please go to our discussion board and join the thread under Natalee Holloway discussing this topic. If we can show enough accurate and specific examples, we may give Senator Shelby the ammunition to take to the FBI’s office and get Natalee on the list.
