Natalee Holloway Missing in Aruba: Joran Van der Sloot’s US Attorney Joe Tacopina Calls his Client Sick, a Sociopath and Despicable … “he’s a sick kid”

Posted in: Aruba,Crime,Joran Van der Sloot,Main,Missing Persons,Natalee Holloway

“He’s a sick kid …”

Joran Van der Sloot’s US attorney, Joe Tacopina, has finally said something that we can all agree on when discussing Joran to Greta Van Susteren … “he’s a sick kid”.  The comment was made by Tacopina in an interview with Greta Van Susteren, ‘On the Record’ in the aftermath of Joran’s new disclosure and latest version of the truth that he sold Natalee Holloway into slavery. Tacopina was also critical of Joran being paid for an interview, yet I am sure none of his clients had ever been offered and accepted a similar deal in the past.

One thing that we all need to remember when it comes to sociopaths, among the many lies they tell, there is some truth mixed in between. There is also a reason and a need to continually keep the focus on them. Almost as if they want to be caught.

Joran van der Sloot’s attorney, Joe Tacopina, believes his client has become a sociopath and can’t be believed.

TACOPINA: You paid him for a tape that he made and wound up getting an hour interview with him. And so be it, Greta. Great TV, great ratings- -

VAN SUSTEREN: Do you have a problem with that?

TACOPINA: Yes, I do have a problem with it, Greta, because if you offered Joran $10,000 tomorrow and ask him to tell you a fifth story, he would do it.

Clearly, he’s a sick kid. Clearly, I have nothing to say in defense of his actions, Greta. OK?

VAN SUSTEREN: Do you deny…?

TACOPINA: But I still tell you, and I stand by the notion that the investigation regarding the disappearance of Natalee Holloway has not led to Joran. That’s the bottom line.

No one expects anyone to believe anything this kid has to say anymore. Quite frankly, he’s on the verge of sociopath and despicable, but – (Full Transcript)

From Amigo, “Joran is sick and if offered enough money, you can have an interview with him.” One thing that Amigo and Joe Tacopina need to get straight with this Joran Van der Sloot interview and yet another version of the disappearance of Natalee Holloway is that Joran approached Greta and Fox News, not the other way around. It was Joran Van der Sloot who one again needed to be in the media’s eye and the focus be on him.

“Joran is sick and if offered enough money, you can have an interview with him.” With these words Joe Tacopina, the American lawyer of Joran van der Sloot, suggested that Fox News possibly made him talk in Thailand with dollars. In a broadcast of the American news channel earlier this week, Joran told the famous journalist Greta van Susteren yet another version of the disappearance of Natalee Holloway. Now the missing girl would have been sold to an Aruban facilitator.

The question that needs to be asked is if Joran’s attorney Joe Tacopina believes his client is sick and a sociopath, what crimes is Joran Van der Sloot capable of? This is not just about lying. If one is sick and a sociopath we are talking about the specter of someone committing crimes far worse than lying. What else is this sick kid capable of? Funny, in 2005 through 2007 Joe Tacopina and the other attorneys for Joran tried to portray him as an innocent kid mixed up in a disappearance. If as Tacopina states that Joran has no involvement in Natalee Holloway’s disappearance than why does he continue to fixate on the crime? A crime that so far he has gotten away with?

Sociopaths commit crimes far worse than lying and there is a reason why Joran Van der Sloot is fixated on the disappearance of Natalee Holloway and the need to continually keep the story alive in the media. Honesty, Joran begins to sound more like a psychopath. Like the BTK killer, there is a need for a sociopath to continually keep the story going and seek attention. Almost mocking and baiting authorities into ultimately catching them. The analogy here is not a direct comparison of the crimes, it is the flaunting of the case by individuals in a manner in which they are almost begging to be caught.

Rader is better known as BTK (“bind, torture, kill”) — a name he created himself.

As many as 5 percent of people display psychopathic or sociopathic personality disorders. That’s according to experts and the professional bible of mental illnesses– the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV). These personality disorders are marked by antisocial and impulsive behavior, disregard for societal standards, and no indications of fear or guilt. (Sound familiar or like someone we know?)

In addition to being a serial killer and a psychopath, Rader was active in his church and had just been elected church council president before his arrest. He held a job as a compliance supervisor in charge of animal control. He is married and has two children.
