Aruba, an island in Distress: Surrounded by Uncertainty, Cover Up and Mystery

  

(Vanderbilt — ’06)

Some 15 months later Aruba finds itself an island in distress surrounded by a sea of mystery and cover-up  due to the disappearance of Natalee Holloway. As Vanderbilt points out, “even the the waters surrounding Aruba looks much  like Natalee’s clothing to tourists. Scary.“

Tourism continues to fall even though the story of Natalee’s disappearance is not in the headlines everyday. People have made up their minds and until Aruba decides to come clean there will not even be a chance of tourists returning. No amount of money or marketing will fix this problem. Justice for Natalee just might.
