RSSNatalee Holloway: Why Isn’t Aruban Prosecutor Hans Mos Following up on New Evidence?
It is being reported that a new witness has some forward in Aruba in the 
disappearance of Natalee Holloway in May 2005. A woman named Celeste who first told her story to Dutch crime reporter Peter de Vries has reportedly come forward. The new witness claims Joran van der Sloot confessed to her that he did indeed dump Natalee’s body into the ocean. Just recently during aPeter R. de Vries secret taping of Joran Van der Sloot, we saw the one time suspect in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway in a hotel room conducting what appeared to be sex trafficking in Thailand.
Natalee’s mom Beth Holloway says she believes this new witness is a girl NBC 13 introduced you to last week.
A woman named Celeste who first told her story to Dutch crime reporter Peter de Vries.
Celeste is Joran van der Sloot’s ex girlfriend. She says van der Sloot told her he knew how to dispose of bodies in the ocean so they’d never be found and that van der Sloot admitted his dad Paul coached him on what to say throughout this investigation.
Right now, the Aruban prosecutor’s office is not identifying their new witness: except to say the new witness is female and that she says van der Sloot admitted to her that he dumped Natalee’s body in the ocean.
Lead prosecutor Hans Mos says this new witness’s testimony is not enough by itself to charge van der Sloot with Natalee’s murder.
“After three years of investigating, it is very very difficult to find that evidence. We have to be realistic,” says Mos.
CNN: Tips renew hopes of solving Holloway case
A new witness has emerged, authorities say, who can place van der Sloot and his father, Paulus van der Sloot, near a pond on the island at 4 a.m. on the day Holloway vanished.
The witness told authorities he saw a young man, wet from the chest down and wearing only one shoe, running along a road from the pond to a fast-food restaurant.
The witness said he saw the young man and an older man driving slowly down the road in a red Jeep about 10 minutes later. The pond was not among those searched in the early stages of the investigation, Mos said.
A second witness, a former girlfriend of Joran van der Sloot, also told police he made suspicious-sounding comments while they were on the beach. The witness, publicly known only as Celeste, told police van der Sloot said: “Who knows? You may now be on the beach with someone who is able to get rid of a corpse.”
So what is Hans Mos’ issue in prosecuting the case? Why does he find fault with every witness that comes forward he would implicate Joran Van der Sloot in Natalee’s disappearance? Mos stated that “the new witness would lack credibility in court unless she waited so long to come forward”. What???!!! She would lack credibility, yet Joran who has lied ever inch of the way has credibility? Maybe Mos would like to explain how any new tip or lead in the case could be something other than a witness finally coming forward? Either through guilt or what ever the case may be, how can a prosecutor continually cover for a suspect? Mos states that they are following all leads, really? The question becomes and needs to be answered by Hans Mos, why would Aruba continue to cover up a crime that has left such a dark stain on their island? Is the answer that the initial cover up is too damaging to Aruba’s reputation?
Greta Van Susteren has been the focal point of a resurgence in news from the Natalee Holloway case and her disappearance in Aruba in 2005. Greta states that she has new evidence as well regarding Natalee Holloway. However, Hans Mos refused to meet with her in Miami, FL to review what she has. Who ever heard of a prosecutor refusing to see evidence that could potentially crack a case that has been hanging over Aruba like a dark cloud?
VAN SUSTEREN: Well, that’s not all the prosecution is saying tonight, which leads me to the question (INAUDIBLE) prosecution. Are they doing anything to investigate this case, as far as you can see?
MANSUR: As far as we can see in Aruba, absolutely nothing. All they’re saying is, and they’re sticking to, is that by the end of the year, they will make a decision, a final decision whether to take the man to court or close the case forever.
VAN SUSTEREN: Well, what — they’ve issued a statement tonight, Hans Mos, the prosecutor, and it says, in part, that they’re still trying to investigate every last lead, which, frankly, is a lie. And I’ll talk about that in a second. But Jossy, is there any enthusiasm to investigate this case? I know the prosecutor doesn’t — I don’t think the prosecutor’s doing anything, but what about people on the island? Do they want this case buried or they want this solved?
MANSUR: No, they’re indifferent to this case now because so much has gone on in three-and-a-half years and the people are busy with other things, other situations here. So the people of Aruba are not that interested anymore in the case. (Full Transcript)
How sad is it that Hans Mos, the Aruban prosecutor, feels the need to release a press statement in responding to a cable news show and not in actively pursing evidence and leads in the case of missing Alabama teen Natalee Holloway?
“This office was contacted as early as July 2008 by a tabloid show concerning a new video tape of Joran van der Sloot discussing the Natalee Holloway case in Thailand. A producer from the tabloid show purporting to have the tape, has made this Office aware of the contents. This Office does not feel that the contents of the tape has any value as evidence at this point. Our investigation results do not show any corroboration of this new story whatsoever.
“The producer of the tabloid show told this Office in July 2008 they would travel to Aruba to show the tape. The request of this Office to send the tape in the interest of the investigation was never answered nor did the host of the show arrive on Aruba. The offer to show the tape on Aruba was repeated 10 days ago through a representative. In a personal conversation between the host of the tabloid show and the prosecutor that offer was withdrawn because of the host’s other business commitments in the US. What was left was a ‘take it or leave it’ suggestion to meet in Miami in the weekend. The host is not willing to provide the tape to the Police.”
How could anyone trust the police in this case after what has transpired since 2005? At best the ALE has been inept, at worst corrupt. To further discuss the case, get updates and provide your opinion, go to Scared Monkeys.net: Natalee Holloway.

Here’s something that should REALLY lack credibility: the idea that Aruba ever intended to investigate the disappearance of Natalee Holloway.
We knew from the beginning that the FBI agents sent down there (a move that Nelson Oduber initially resisted, saying the case would be solved in a week) were furious at being used in an attempt to persuade the American people that Aruba was acting.
And the long string of lies, evasions, and duplicity never ended … with Aruba’s main concern being to keep Beth and Dave from talking.
Here we are … with nobody punished.
We can’t force Aruba to do anything … but we sure as hell can do our best to persuade the American people to avoid the place utterly.
No justice for Natalee … no tourists for Aruba.
Does she have PROOF he told her that. If not then this information is useless. WE need PROOF which we don’t have.
I almost fell over when Greta admitted is stinks lik a cover up. Hopefully with Greta on the bandwagon either Aruba will put up or we will shut down Aruba, with Travel Advisories.
Hey Paulus we all knew all along……
Karen and Julia, what are you gonna say now?
Flip Flop?
Because Mos has been bought, too?
What is it that Paulass van der Slut has on these law enforcement/government officials to make them sweep every and anything under the rug?!?
Hans Mos, like the others, will continue to disregard all witnesses
BOYCOTT ARUBA AND THE NETHERLANDS TIL HELL FREEZES OVER!!
JUSTICE FOR NATALEE
This case will never get solved as long as Aruba keeps refusing to hear new evidence or any evidence for that matter. I believe Joran could walk into Hans Mos office and confess out right and NOTHING would happen. He already confessed on tape and they have done nothing but make excuses. They have no desire to solve this case. The only way this is going to be solved is to clean house and bring in new unbiased officials and do the job that should have been done from the beginning. We all know that Joran is guilty and his father helped him.
i will say that some of this would be considered hearsay in the u.s. courts.
the witness however is a different story.
the aruban government is blaming their bad economy on the u.s. economy. they refuse to admit to their own citizens that other caribbean islands have not been hit as bad. aruban unemployment is up & real estate prices have plummeted.
for a government to allow this type of consequence to hit a whole island to protect a few bad seeds is beyond me.
I agree with Richard with everything except No Tourists. That would be GREAT but there are still THOUSANDS of AMERICANS who go there EVERY month. I guess that is their right but they must be STUPID !!
CheriMc is going to town on gretawire. This person is obsessed. He/She must have a vested interest because I can’t see anyone being that angry after 3 years.
I hope Greta will interview Celeste!
I don’t think Greta is going to have much. She is doing this for her RATINGS.
Even if ALE had sworn statements from every person in Aruba that JVDS admitted raping, killing and disposing of Natalee’s body, there will NEVER be an arrest. The lies and corruption run so deep that not one single person in authority will ever admit the whole truth or arrest anyone involved in the murder and coverup. NEVER! We can hope for a miserable life and painful death for the raping, lying and murdering bastards involved, and we can comfort Natalee’s family and friends with our thoughts and prayers, but there will NEVER be an arrest in this case. I have completely lost hope that there will ever be LEGAL justice. I do hope I am alive to hear about whatever cosmic justice comes to those deserving.
I think Hans Mos has been neutered.
11 da wench… God is bigger and able to bring forth justice for Natalee’s murder. Stand by and wait….and see….the guilty will pay for their crimes
Mos does not buck the good old boy system they got going there…the drug lords would not allow him to do this and he knows it too.
It is a sick corrupted island behind a pretty painted face…
There are cracks in their foundation and soon all the walls will fall.
Do you notice how Joran’s life has been running…being video taped saying he was with Natalee when she died and was dumped in the ocean….. and now most recently…trying to setup women to become prostitutes…
This is not the end of Joran… he is on the brink of a self distructing rampage…the demons
in him will continue to torment him and lead him down a path of vile self-distruction….taking himself captive until he can no longer beat the system that has winked an eye at him for so long.

CheriMc is going to town on gretawire. This person is obsessed. He/She must have a vested interest because I can’t see anyone being that angry after 3 years.
oh i agree sahara! there is something wrong with cheri. her obsession with beth and natalee is really scary!
it must stem from some sort of sickness in her own life. i find her pathetic, a very sick and lonely person
if i were beth i would get a restraining order against her. she seems to stalk beth.
gturnermystomach
it’s greta’s job to broadcast news. she doesn’t need anymore ratings than she has been getting. DUHHHH
hans mos doesn’t need to be neutured, he was born without one. JMO!
So…
What is it that they’re afraid of?
.
The Arawak Nation being exposed…
Babylon, the Great, Herself!
.
Armageddon may come and go…
in an instant!
.
Besides, they will turn on one another.
.
Gog and MAGOG!
.
Paulus holds the key
to unlock the deep, dark secrets…
of the Arawak nation.
.
So, do the Netherlands…
.
and they know that we know.
.
Bring in the ‘heros’ and ask that
they volunteer to swim off the shore
of the Turtle Garden.
Tell the story…
you have it in your hands.
It was a miracle.
Remember, too…
One yelled out that night,
Slay the DRAGON!
.
Arawak!
That is the key.
.
… and he sinned against God’s Holy Spirit!
Boasting like a PIG…
that HE is King of the ocean!
Arawak!
Use the key…
.
… and I am no one.
Just me.
.
And the people will know that He is Jehovah!
The one that answers prayers,
provides protection,
and concurs all.
.
He is Justice!
.
But, I am concerned for a little boy…
I hear him crying!
Please, help him.
.
Can’t wait for Paulus and Anita’s book on what it’s like to be the parents of a brat that brought down his whole country. Well, truth is, even Joran couldn’t do that alone – he had to have Paulus help him.
I agree that Joran is a ticking time bomb. He can’t stop getting into trouble. Here is a kid that supposedly was bright, well liked, could manipulate people – would have been a cracker jack stock broker – who is left running to Thailand to sell girls into the sex trade, mooching off “friends” and mommy and daddy. And he’s still consumed enough by guilt that he has to keep acting out and shooting off his mouth.
Katablog?
So I assume that you, like I, believe the witnesses.
.
But what of the boy from the guard station
and
the girl from the restaurant
at the Lighthouse?
.
Welcome Back, Kermit!
.
I think the vander crap dad must have around 20 years of whitnesing bad situations under his belt, The sweaty dad must have dirt on every person in aruba and that is why he is being so protected.
Joran van der sloot is weaving yet another story for Greta Van Susteren, who seems to be falling for it, hook line and sinker. This time he’s trying to convince us that he sold Natalee for $10,000.
Bunk! He’s merely trying to get the heat off himself. I don’t care if he has tapes of him and his father saying such things – those are recent tapes and they could easily have cooked it up so that the heat is off both of them.
Wow… Joran’s interview with Greta…
He throws his father under the bus
He throws his lawyer under the bus
He involves some of his friends mentioned under the bus
He throws the Kalpoes under the bus.
He says his teacher and several cops his father knew that he sold Natalee
He said he no longer speaks to his parents.
That he sold Natalee to someone..it goes on and on…
Then a week or so after the interview he calls Greta and says he was not telling the truth.
Some one will put him out of his misery. He will self distruct…
The urin8er was going to get a million from the cowpoo’s Dr Phil law suit if he kept his mouth shut, OOPS there goes yer mil urin HaHaHa
He kind of threw a lot of people under the bus
No wonder he called Greta and said it was a lie, But Gretta has a lot of leads now…………………..
Joran van der Sloot, from day one, seems to have taken great pride in wrapping Aruba, and then much of the world, around his little finger.
Imagine a sh-t like that being able to command media coverage on his whim.
So I gather he’s now raising the idea of human trafficking … which I was addressing some time ago, but which so many people thought to be impossible?
I have to ask, though (didn’t see the Greta broadcast) … did any plausible reason come up for his change of heart? Is it an attempt to deflect attention from the ‘blockbuster’ tape of van der Eem? Is he simply trying to manipulate the media to give him the spotlight again?
Damned if I know … but what we can do is to keep promoting the boycott of Aruba. Is there anything else?
As Usual
Joran The Pig – Still FOS !
He Will Either Be In Jail or Dead In The Next Year
Greta Is Great !
She Exposed That Piece of S–t Once Again !
I would really love for the story Joran told Greta tonight,to be “the whole truth,and nothing but the truth”,because in my opinion, that would be the lesser of the two evils.Because there would still be a slim possibility the she is still alive somewhere. But for me, I feel deep in my heart,that she was druged,and all three (maybe 4 or 5),raped her and they killed her(accident,not likely.Seizure maybe).
But I still think back to the early days of the “investigation” when the FBI said there was blood all over Deepak’s car.Deepak cleaning his car in the middle of the night.The new cement slab at pappas house, the new couch, the bloody mattress,the hole out beside the fishermans hut. Ya know this little PRICK lies so much…I just HATE him! I cant wait until tomorrow night to see what the teacher he threw under the bus, has to say. Probably NOTHING! Poor Beth and Dave…how much more are they going to have to endure?
Richard : Dips–t said the reason he wanted to talk to Greta was because he wanted it to be over so he could go on with his life. He also said that the police werent going to investigate it,but he knew that she would. So that was the reason he contacted Greta. She was pretty good tonight…she was on his a$$ pretty strong, probing for the answers to her questions. There is supposed to be a part 2 tomorrow night. cant wait!
i agree with Michelle(good to hear from you Michelle) that there is too much corruption there and too many involved for the case to be solved. IF Joran really wanted to help find Natalee alive, he would not go on national tv to give this interview-if she is alive, she will most likely be killed now. either, he really needs money now or worked a deal to divide money with others, to get this interview and bs some more or he MAY be telling the truth and then became afraid. most likely, he needs money IF THIS IS THE TRUTH, WIRES, EMAILS, FACTS TOLD TO OTHERS, LETTERS, CAN BE VERIFIED. IF HE WANTED TO HELP SOLVE THIS, HE WOULD HAVE DONE THIS IN PRIVATE AND ASKED FOR SOME LENIENCY FROM COURTS HERE AND PROTECTION. DONT YOU THINK???
Joran is now playing with Greta and the media.
He is a rapist, killer, sex slave trader, and now Beth & Dave Holloway’s tormentor.
I pray that justice is served in this case.
If you combine joran’s new story with the hidden camera tape,you may almost have the truth. The two stories are not very different.
BOYCOTT ARUBA JUSTICE FOR NATALEE
Richard:
Joran was very careful about not saying anything that would get his father in trouble, which reminded me of the things that he said in the back of the police car when he insinuated that he would not mind going to jail but didn’t want to have his father drug into this. However, he did say that Paulus paid off two or three police officers to the tune of $50,000. Joran said that he delivered Natalee at the beach near the Marriott where they made out until a pick-up man came with a boat and a bag of money. He said that he had told Natalee that they were going to go on a boat ride and once she got on the boat, it took off without him. He lied about Satish returning to pick him up, again. As we know, it was Paulus who picked Joran up around 4 am. We, now, have a witness that says that she saw Joran, wet from the waste down, being picked up by Paulus in his red jeep. I, still, think that Paulus was involved from the very beginning and that Natalee was sold right there at the Holiday Inn, but Joran says that it was after meeting Natalee at the casino that he went to another casino to meet with the man who had told him months before that he wanted to buy a blonde girl.
He said that he had told his father and his attorney about selling Natalee, but the first person he told was a school teacher.
He admitted to driving to the Lighthouse and as you know, I believe that he was spotted there by the two people that were killed at the rocks. Perhaps, Aruba and Prime Minister Oduber were blackmailed with the scene at the rocks. We know about the radio announcement that Oduber made about how finding Natalee would mean the end of Aruba’s reputation as a safe and happy island. I, still, think the two people who’s obituaries say they died on June 6 were the people at the rocks, who, just like Pitbull, knew too much. From a distance, the girl could pass for Natalee… the body in the bush looks like what I would describe as a human sacrifice to the gods of the Arawak Nation. I don’t think that Natalee’s corpse was moved around as much as I believe that the people involved wanted everyone to think that Natalee was dead so her family would give up, go home and try to forget.
God Bless the Holloways for never giving up…
It is because of them, that no one will ever forget.
And… I still think that it will only take one person breaking the link that will cause, what many people have come to call the house of cards, to fall. We are all praying for justice for Natalee and her family. No one should have to go through all of this. But, maybe, just maybe… she is still alive!
.
Justice for Natalee!
Remember Joran did just get caught trying to sell girls from Thailand into SEXUAL SLAVERY in HOLLAND.
BOYCOTT ARUBA UNTIL NATALEE GETS JUSTICE.
Handing a evidence tape to Hans Mos would be just as bad giving it to the ARUBAN MAFIA. If Natalee is alive giving the tape to Hans Mos would put her just as much danger as playing it on TV.
BOYCOTT ARUBA UNTIN NATALEE GETS JUSTICE
Natalee Holloway sold to Venezuelan, Joran says RNW News
25-11-2008
Disappeared US teenager Natalee Holloway was taken to an Aruba beach by Joran van der Sloot and sold there to a Venezuelan man who ‘wanted a blonde girl’, Mr Van der Sloot told Fox News TV.
Joran van der Sloot being interviewed on Fox News
In an interview with the US news channel, he claimed he repeatedly met the man in a casino. The Venezuelan offered him 10,000 US dollars.
Joran van der Sloot told how he watched Natalee being hauled on board a vessel chartered by the Venezuelan. There was no struggle or anything, he said.
Natalee vanished on the Caribbean island of Aruba – part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands – on 30 May 2005. Joran van der Sloot has been arrested twice in connection with her disappearance, but without conclusive evidence he has never been brought to trial.
He now lives in Thailand, where he has come under suspicion of being involved in sex trafficking.
Joran van der Sloot said in the interview that he was helped by the two brothers Deepak and Sateesh who were briefly detained by Aruba police when Ms Holloway had gone missing.
Fox News
Fox News is a commercial cable TV station in the United States.
The station is known to regularly pay its interviewees to participate in its programmes, and is often criticised for being neither fair nor balanced in its reporting.
Fox was launched in 1996 by Rupert Murdoch’s media conglomerate.
Retraction
The interview was cut short when Joran van der Sloot was asked about his father’s involvement in the affair. According to earlier statements by Joran, his father, working for the Aruban Justice ministry at the time, bribed two policemen to remain silent about what they knew about the affair.
Joran’s father and police on Aruba are refusing to comment.
Some time after the recorded interview was broadcast, Joran van der Sloot contacted Fox News and told them he had lied to the interviewer, Greta van Susteren.
Guys I can’t believe it. I missed the first ten mins. of the show, but I wonder how are the relations between Beth and Greta. I can only hope that some people feel the heat and get willing to talk.
Probably you guys know the bleeped names. I might ask to go back in the forum again. This is a neverending story and it is only Joran who has done this to all.
Oh and the clincher of the interview: Joran retracts the whole thing at the end. Nope, sorry folks the story isn’t true. Joran is just reaching out and slapping Dave, Beth, Greta, Daddy and the Kalpoes.
In this case Hans Mos seems to be the smart one to totally ignore Joran’s new story. Wonder what Fox had to pay Joran for this latest piece of garbage.
Joran’s “quid pro quo” statement that he had a letter from the Kalpoe’s attorney stating he would get a million dollars is the most damaging thing to come out of this interview. If he did, in fact, give Greta a copy of that letter or the letter itself, that leave room for Dr. Phil to go after those attorneys and the Kalpoes themselves in US courts since they are being represented here in the US and opened their legal case here. It would be grounds for disbarment for the attorneys who signed such a letter. Go for it Dr. Phil and Greta.
As many have said – follow the money trail. Withdrawals by Joran’s father to pay off police officers probably are traceable. Wire transfers via Western Union are traceable. All Western Union offices have cameras recording everything. Questions to Dave about how much money he had were a direct request for money to solve the case.
It’s all about the money – and Aruba isn’t ever going to get more from me.
Fox Fire, you say:
he did say that Paulus paid off two or three police officers to the tune of $50,000.
Doesn’t that seem likely to get his father in trouble?
We have to remember something here … even if this story proves to be true, that Natalee was taken from Aruba in May 2005, it wouldn’t show that she was still alive.
Joran is a pathological liar, murderer and a rapist among other things. One day, he will get what’s coming to him. KARMA is a bitch. He knows that Natalee died that night on the beach as he did nothing to try and help her. He disposed of her body with the help of his father. I pray that one day they will find Natalee’s remains and that Joran will finally be locked away forever. He is a monster and will continue to prey on innocent women until he is caught.
Looking forward to Joran doing time in the Bangkock Hilton. Perhaps a higher power is going to punish Joran, throughout his whole life, by assorted stays in assorted hellholes throughout the world. If the people he associates with don’t kill him first for his loose lips, I think he’ll eventually end up a suicide.
Can you believe this shit?
.
To me, he looked nervous, fatigued and sometimes, child-like.
Very hesitant to say much but wanted Fox to look for this man.
.
He should be arrested, soon…
.
I know…
But, where there’s a chance of life…
There’s hope.
.
I think they took the skull to Texas
and had it tested…
It must’ve tested negative.
.
So this case is starting up, again.
.
Personally,
I hope it’s true…
and we find him.
.
Thing is…
You know it’s all Hollywood.
This tape was taken during the election.
So, if there was anything derived from the interview…
They’ll have some results tonight.
.
I still think it’s the judge
that wanted the blond.
Maybe she collapsed at the Fisherman’s Hut.
So they put her in that cage.
.
And transported her.
Found she was suffering from an overdose.
Called Deepak.
Deepak got his dope from Pitbull.
(cover)
They got the blond!
.
Joran says over and over…
and almost said it lastnight.
He didn’t want Natalee.
He says that she wanted him…
But, I think she just wanted to have fun!
He took advantage.
.
Joran needed money for college.
I told you that already.
That’s why I think this was something
they did… all the time.
.
He said, they only made out until the boat came.
.
He was more respectful toward her family.
.
And scared, at times.
.
Verrrrrry Relunctant!
Please tell me that CheriMc has been banned from this site. I certainly hope she is not a regular here.

just a thought do you think maybe he was caught trying to trafficking womenin thailand cause he got away with it when he did it to natalee and he wanted to do it again. or has he been trafficking all along and now just got caught. drug dealers are the same. they do it over and over until they get caught. just a thought
You got that right! Boycott them!
