Aruba: More Arrests in Criminal Drug Gangs … Good Police Work in Aruba, So what Happened in the Natalee Holloway Case?

Would someone like to explain how the difference between the drug and money laundering cases in Aruba is different from the Natalee Holloway investigation?

The Aruban police have arrested two more suspects in the large scale drug dealing and money laundering investigation. Its amazing what the Aruban police can do when they set their minds to it.  Here is a rather interesting comment when it comes to the arrests of suspects in Aruba. So when a magistrate extends custody for 60 days, they have hard evidence in hand? We can remember that Joran Van der Sloot, Deepak and Satish Kalpoe’s custody stays were extended. What’s the difference?

Since September 24th, the OM has arrested a total of ten persons that are involved in drug operations.  Of the first eight, only one was released up till now.  The examining magistrate has decided to extend the custody of the other seven with another 60 days.  This means that the OM has hard evidence in hands.

Why was this investigation handled in a more thorough and professional manner than say the Natalee Holloway missing persons case? We were told that the Aruban police were overwhelmed by the enormity of the case. It would appear that a drug and money laundering long term surveillance and investigation would be quite an intricate and difficult job. So then it was not police incompetence, but something more? What would it look like or people say if everyone that was arrested in this drug and money laundering were released and never prosecuted?

What’s the difference?

Aruba, Disappearance of Natalee Holloway: In The Face of Evil part IV

In The Face of Evil part IV

Aruba: Skeleton Found by Tourists was Remains of Shipwrecked Sailor from 1886 … That was Fast

They certainly do things quick in Aruba when the news is beneficial … What ever happened to island time?

Thanks to good arrangements with the police, the archaeologists were there fast.  Due to their forensic knowledge network, archaeologists are always called when bones are found in Aruba.

REALLY?

Skeletal remains found by tourists in Aruba a couple of months ago near Boc’i Brik about two months ago were determined to be that of those belonging to shipwrecked sailors of the German ship ‘Hero’ that was lost in a hurricane in 1886. It certainly was a rather quick and public determination as to the skeletal remains as compared to many items of evidence that have been uncovered during the investigation into the disappearance of Natalee Holloway in Aruba.

It leaves one to wonder that what happened to the skeletal remains and what was ever determined to evidence uncovered during the investigation. One minute a story is published that bones are found, the next minute they are off to the Netherlands for investigation and then nothing ever said. Then there are other bones found that no one has any real scientific answer to.

Its amazing what they uncover 121 years later in Aruba. At this rate we will be reading a story in 2126 that another set of bones were located in Aruba as well.
