Americas Most Wanted; John Walsh, Tim Miller and Patricia Kilpatrick on the Natalee Holloway Investigation
Tonight, America’s Most Wanted and John Walsh will be doing a special on the Natalee Holloway case and Texas Equusearch.
America’s Most Wanting will be discussing their recent trip to Aruba, what they discovered and discussions with Dave Holloway. Also the discovery on the make shift memorial to Natalee Holloway.
Both Dave and Beth have returned to Aruba numerous times, searching for clues and confronting the Aruban government about their investigation of Natalee’s case. Just last week, Dave, accompanied by EquuSearch – a search and recovery team for missing persons – discovered a makeshift memorial for Natalee. A small wooden cross, surrounded by rocks and coral and draped in rosary beads, stood just yards from where Natalee was reportedly last seen alive. Carved in the corner of the cross were the initials “N.H.”
Television viewers tuning in to Fox’s “America’s Most Wanted” this weekend might see a familiar face.
Kansas State Rep. Patricia Kilpatrick recently flew to Aruba in an effort to help locate missing Alabama teenager Natalee Holloway. Kilpatrick was interviewed for the program that updates the Holloway case. It is scheduled to air at 8 tonight on WDAF-TV, Channel 4.
Kilpatrick, an Overland Park Republican, said she ended up in Aruba after meeting a representative from Texas EquuSearch, a volunteer search and rescue team, at a conference for female legislators. She said her experience gave her renewed energy to pursue legislation that would increase monitoring of sexual offenders and predators.

This article is unbelievably painful. I am praying for Natalee and her family.
Nothing new again!! Just like Capone’s safe. A lot of talk for ratings. I’m really surprised at AMW and Mr. West. He has started to sound like Geraldo, talked for forty five minutes about new facts and reports from Aruba: that actually lasted for about 4 minutes and signified nothing. The Aruban police and investigators are not stupid nor are they incompetent. I believe corrupt is a better term. They are “dumb like fox”. Their current attitude towards this investigation show they know what happened, they know who did it, they are covering for them and as long as they kept looking like bumbling idiots, a la Peter Sellers, this case is never going to be allowed to be solved. They, the Dutch Authorities, are just going to wear everyone down until Natalee is just a distant memory. I don’t know what kind of outside intervention will bring this case to a resolution other than a total boycott of all Dutch held territory. The Dutch have lied and are laughing in Dave and Beth faces regarding their daughter’s fate. It is most unfortunate that this had to happen to Natalee: but let it be a lesson to all who travel within and outside the USA… be alert, stay together and stay on guard.
And further more: I still cannot comprehend why any other part of the Island other then the pond, landfill and light house have never been searched. “No body no case”. The very fact that Paulus refused to have his house searched and the investigators did not follow through and insist, leads me to believe he knows and they know what happened to Natalee. My gut feeling still is: The father, the son, the brothers, two or more buddies, an after hours club, a small truck and an underground site near the Gold Mine Ruins near Montana. Comments to this gut feeling are appreciated… pro or con as long as it starts something that can bring Natalee home.
I have been in Aruba for the past two weeks and it is certainly the mentality of the island that this whole matter will eventually just disappear. I pray for the family and all who care about Natalee that we will keep it at the forefront until answers are received. There have been two local murders here in the past week (source: Diario) Prayers to the family!
paulus is doing a really great job of masterminding the misinformation and misdirection center for this.
the ideas that i have that would work to resolve this case for natalee and her family are all illegal and for the most part terribly painful for some. sure would like to hear some good ideas. with paulus’ court date coming up on the llth, he’ll have to kick his programs up notch or two so he can get himself released as a suspect. i expect new witnesses (paid or coerced) and new rumors to appear on the blogs and forums to further his cause. should be interesting.
beth and dave are going to win in the long run.
Can’t someone build a tiny memorial for NH wothout it being construed as evidence? Dave Holloway states he thinks it’s “eerie” that this little memorial is near the last place she was supposed to seen alive .. (The whole island of Aruba knows where this is … that’s if you want to believe what Joran Van Der Sloot told the police.)
People do this sort of thing all over the world. Have you ever seen Jim Morrison’s gravesite? Some people like to make little memorials like this. Unfortunately, for the person who made this one, there is no gravesite to place it by. So I suppose they placed it where they were TOLD she was last seen.
Will the Holloways try and demand forensic testing on it? Fingerprints?
I hope that AMW does a follow-up to this case and explores alternative theories. Maybe they can work with Dr Phil and uncover some truth to the “vast underground sex-slave-ring” theory. (Maybe they will even find more kidnapped Americans in South America–remember Amy Bradley?)
The HT family has given the ALE/prosecuters more than sufficent time to pursue their version of the investigation–which only leads the case “back to square one”. The only way the case will be solved and hopes of Natalee ever found is through the relentless pursuit of the American media. Cheers Mr Walsh!!
To 10061906 the 4 AM meeting in Paulus car (a 2 mile distance from house) lets me know that at that time Paulus was told about the death of Natalee. At that time the plan to destroy evidence and continue the protection of the P.I.M.P.S. gang went into play. We should all thank John Walsh for exposing on national television just how bogus the continuing investigation is. Mr Walsh let the Aruban beasts hang themselves with their own rope. The ending was perfect, letting everyone watching know that they are talk and no deeds. Unwilling to ask a waiting FBI for the use of the needed equipment! The truth is that this kind of coverup of crime should be considered the usual for Aruba.
Again, 1993 report from Holland said that Aruba is completely under the control of drug lords. The police and government authorities are all on the take. These anti moral actions have created one of the most corrupt places on earth.
Again why has not Freddie (Locoman Pimp) been questioned with regard to the crime? Why have the other crimes committed by the PIMPS been investigated? I think we all know the answer. The same answere as too why no search has been done of many places and why none will be done where evidence might still be found.
John Walsh and Tim Miller are exceptional men. Instead of letting their own pain take them down, they have taken it and done such great work helping others. I’ve watched Tim on tv searching for Natalee. This guy has a heart of gold.. No matter what, he and his men keeps on trying to help in anyway they can, simply out of the goodness of their hearts. I was cheering him on when he went to the VanderSloot’s home to search, but we all know what happened there. God Bless them both.
It was so sad to see Dave on AMW last night finding that cross with the beads on it.. I don’t believe Natalee is alive. I think the 3 boys either did it accidently or on purpose to cover up what was done to her and keep her quiet. By saying Natalee hit her head at the Holiday Inn when she got out and the 2 men picked her up.. That was probably in case they found her .. The two men were gonna get blamed for what was done to her.. I dont think the story is all that complicated. When will people like this leave our babies alone and go pick on people of their own caliber?! God Bless the Twittys and Holloways and God Bless Natalee..
I am glad John Walsh is involved. He has done great work in the past maybe he can get some things accomplished here too.
I would like to now how a suspect can refuse to have their home/grounds searched? It would never happen in the US. Obviously a big cover-up. This is just another ruse to continue the cover-up.
Well I can say this as I read the threads and Watch the news.. If PVS
get released from this case your gonna see a huge turn around..
I think half the news stations will be demanding a boycott of aruba along with the family..That will be the last slap in the face the family will take IMO
I would like tosee Mark Furman go over this case. He is a great detectivv
The makeshift memorial is no coincidence. Sounds like Dave felt it in his gut and your gut will never lie to you. I think Natalee’s body was launched from that spot. Bring the 3 perps back and let someone else who is competent and who cares begin interrogations with those perverts. Bring the father of the perp in too and make him sweat again the way he did when Beth talked to him. I hope they solve this case. I think it is getting close. BOYCOTT ARUBA !!!!!! I am invited to spend next summer there –I am NOT GOING !!! Unless they get serious about solving this crime and there are plenty of people who know what happened. BOYCOTT ARUBA !!!!!!!!!!!
Hi 10061906 and John Staton, I believe Natalee’s body was found near the lighthouse June 11. Did you see the Videos posted on this site about a month ago. It looks to me that 2 pathologist were there, 2 police officers, could be Jacobs and Dompig. The person in the aqua shirt could have been Karin Janssen. This is a total cover-up, that’s the reason for the stalling in the investigation, because they know she’s dead. Paulus knew that Joran’s DNA would be found on Natalee and that instigated the cover-up. I hope Beth and Dave never give up. I continue to pray for them also.
Jim Hanson,
We don’t agree on much, but I’ve got to agree with you on this one. People make memorials everywhere; on roadsides, fences, etc. There are a lot of things going on that i believe deserve legitimate scrutiny, but making evidence out of this memorial is paranoid.
