Aruban Prosecutor’s Investigate Joran Van der Sloot Confession from Peter R. De Vries

Could the new information from Dutch crime investigator Peter R. De Vries open the way for potential new arrests in the Natalee Holloway case?  Many have long thought it was only a matter of time before Joran Van der Sloot or the Kalpoe brothers opened their mouths and started bragging. A narcissist can never control themselves. They can never keep quiet or keep the focus off of what they have done.

Sources in judicial circles told the Amigoe that the recording ‘is definitely not made in Aruba’. But in the Netherlands.  The next 48 hours will determine whether there will be arrests again for example.  There were emergency talks yesterday between the Justice-minister, the Prime Minister, the Chief of Police, and the OM-top.

Part of a conversation between Peter R. de Vries and chief district attorney Hans Mos about the alleged confession of Joran van der Sloot, as could be read on the site Vkmag.com.  The part of De Vries on the site was removed later.  Vkmag.com got hold of a screen illustration and put it online.

WILLEMSTAD/ORANJESTAD – Justice and the police in Aruba are investigating ‘new indications’ that may give more clarity on the way the American teenager Natalee Holloway had ‘died in May of 2005 and how her body was disposed off’.   

The Public Prosecutor (OM) of Aruba indicated today having received ‘recent’ information from the Dutch crime-journalist Peter R. de Vries, but the OM didn’t say what the information is.   The OM indicated that in the interest of the case, they won’t give any interview on this case, not over the telephone and not before the camera.  But it is De Vries that is actually looking for publicity, without lifting the veil.  In a press release he mentioned that he has solved the disappearance of Holloway.  This got the Dutch media moving.  He says that he is 100 percent sure of his case. 

“He solved the case with an ingenious hidden camera-action that his program has worked for months on.  It will be shown on SBS 6 this coming Sunday evening, starting at 21:30 (16:30 local time, red.).”

Sources in judicial circles told the Amigoe that the recording ‘is definitely not made in Aruba’. But in the Netherlands.  The next 48 hours will determine whether there will be arrests again for example.  There were emergency talks yesterday between the Justice-minister, the Prime Minister, the Chief of Police, and the OM-top.

After having seen the recordings, Hans Mos said that ‘the truth is going to be revealed’ and that he ‘can actually close the case’.  All the OM in Aruba said: This information can to a great extent contribute to the mystery around the disappearance of Natalee Holloway.  Police and OM are currently investigating the trustworthiness and value of the information received.   

Natalee Holloway’s mother Beth is in the Netherlands upon invitation of De Vries.  He informed her of the breakthrough today.  An emotional De Vries said before the SBS-camera today in the program Hart van Nederland that he could have told Beth what had happened exactly with her daughter.  He didn’t want to say whether Joran van der Sloot had played a part in that, at least not before the broadcasting of This Sunday evening.
