Jossy Mansur; “The irony of all this is that Arubans don’t have anything to do with the case.”

From Diaro comes another editorial from Jossy Mansur, Editorial: NATALEE: E DETAYENAN CU TA SALIENDO!

Jossy Mansur in his latest editorial makes a point that Scared Monkeys has been making for quite some time. Last week in an entitled, “USA Today Portrays Aruba in Their Travel Section”, Scared Monkeys stated the following:

The situation is made worse when most of the horror of Natalee Holloway’s disappearance was done by non Arubans. Non locals committing acts that is tearing at the social fabric of the island. This is the huge source of discomfort for the Aruban people. So no matter that the Aruban’s cry that they are a loving people and had nothing to do with this, they are still in the line of fire.

They personally want it solved, but they also do not want their livelihood and reputation as a people ruined. I do not blame them. The classic adage, a reputation can take years to build and a moment to destroy, is very true.

Jossy Mansur’s editorial states the following as well:

The irony of all this is that Arubans don’t have anything to do with the case.

The principal suspects is Dutch, the lead investigator was Dutch, the prosecutor is Dutch and the five judges involved are Dutch. If you think about it, an attempted boycott against Aruba is unjust, because it is misdirected and won’t achieve the desired results.

In a democracy, the executive branch cannot intervene in the judicial one. No matter how much pressure is put upon the government, it cannot give any sort of order to the prosecutor nor the judges. On the contrary, ‘trias politica’ can’t work
I have full understanding of the suffering of Natalee’s mom and the uncertainty of the rest of the family. All the want is the truth, to find their child, no matter what condition she may be in, to then put the matter behind and return to their home to resume their lives.
