Breaking Aruba: Major Dig Going On

News came in from a reliable source in Aruba that a major dig attended by police and firefighters was going on at the location the Kalpoe brothers were said to have left Natalee Hollway and Joran Van der Sloot on the night of her disappearance.

Another wild goose chase?

[meme]

How convenient, right after their RELEASE!!!!!!!
Is anyone ever going to take the blame or admit to this horrible crime against this young woman? I think not. Let us just continue to pray for her family and if God forbid they find anything in this dig that is has some clues and then we can still find Joran, Deepak and Satish if need be. I am not so sure that they will still be "available to police" after they know this dig is going on!!

[!]

What are they looking for this time ??? hmmm.

[Roy]

What we need now is some very elaborate information from the attorney general.
Explain the lies and explain in detail how you did this investigation.

[frenchymom]

Just wait.... Dan will be one of the first to have the news when they do find her body. Let's hop it's today.

I'm sure this has aboslutely nothing to do with Natalee being missing in Aruba and the suspects going free as birds.

Probably building some more huts or something over the site so no one can ever look there again.

[clintcarter]

What a minute! That's no dig.
That's the annual clambake for the Finest and Bravest!

[spike131]

Beach party being set up for the 3 jail birds ?

[Paulo]

Mates,

We all know the lies that each suspect, government official, and members of law enforcement have told.

Maybe there is some merit to Satish’s comment, “something bad happened…” What if these three actually saw Natalee getting murdered and ran? What I mean to say is they were looking over their shoulders as they ran witnessing a helpless girl getting either raped or murdered or both.

Paulo

[Sharon]

I DON'T GET IT??? Is this just a front again
by Aruba Government to act like they still
are trying to find Natalie even though they
let the guilty go free???? All these false leads..
YEAH, THEY ARE DIGGING as if this is the first time they were told where the Kalpoe's said Natalie and Joran were dropped off...give me break!! Did they not find her the first time they
dug!!! I pray this is not another yanking our chain again!! I pray she is found whereever she is!!

[Roy]

Something bad happened...
It's time for somebody (Karen jansen, LE, ??) to explain what the hell did happen!

[calista]

a "major dig"? I wonder what new tip prompted this? or did anyone finally talk? call me cynical but I won't be holding my breath for anything to be found

Well Mate,

That means that they lied again and that not a surprise..If they witnesses that then it makes no sense..A family has been grieving for there loved one for 3 months and if someone else murdered her then they would have saved a lot of grief for themselves and this poor family..I think not...All they had to do was say that the very first night instead of draggin this on and not telling the truth..They are most definetly responsible or know what happened to her..PVDS,JVDS and the 2 brother's are complete trash...They will pay the price..Somehow..Someway...

RESPONSE:
CALISTA, I DON'T THINK ANYONE TALKED SINCE THEY ALL WALKED!! I AM PRAYING THAT JUSTICE BE DONE FOR NATALIE AND IT WILL!!

[FloridaPatty]

Why do I feel this is another dog and pony show?

Why did I think it had nothing to do with Natalee and more like something to do with a new timeshare building.

Because that's all we've seen other than disrepect for the victim and her family from certain quarters.

[GrannyToad]

Some people had evil times last night poking fun because Beth hadn't time yet to learn much about the circumstances of Natalee's disappearance from the MB students when she got to Aruba that first night. As we know that came to her in bits & pieces along the way, so now they're getting even more evil jabs out of it.

Just so good folks know the score.

[FloridaPatty]

The next time something happens to a child and it's a really bad thing, I hope some of these people stop and think (that could be me and my family). I some how doubt that though.

[bite]

What consists in a "major dig" I thought they dug already.

[bite]

Well, maybe they will find dogs and ponies. No wonder there are no dogs on aruba to speak of. Do people have ponies?

[bite]

What was that picture all about?

RESPONSE:
BITE THAT WAS FUNNY!!
Yeah, what is that dig all about now as if they
think they will find anything...they know they gave Jurine and the Koepoes nine days to move Natalie...Come on as if the Koepoe brothers are there showing them right now where she was buried... Shame on Aruba!!

[Sharon]

DAN WILL STAND BY FOR ANY UPDATES...since it would take finding Natalee's body or alive, to make the news tonight...Thanks Dan..

HA, THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN, she doesn't have big enough brass ones to speak up.

[Canada Goose]

As hugely dissapointing it is that the 3 suspects have been released, everyone needs to remember that under American or Canadian law they would never have been imprisoned. Paul Vander Sloot made it clear, "No body, no case!" so someone has done a very good job of disposing of her little body. I think they took her on a boat, put some weights on her, and fed her to the sharks. Hopefully, the police will be watching these suspects closely, and putting taps on them. Sometimes, it takes years to have incriminating evidence. And yes, the dig is to appease Beth and Dave in light of the release of the suspects. These poor parents have had far too many false hopes. Their hearts must be so very heavy. I hope they can now "Let go, and Let God" and have His marvelous work and wonder shown over time. I truly believe that after we have done all that we can do, (and the Holloways have shown this)it is time to let God do his part.
Even though the devestation of the hurricane is foremost in everyone's minds, one daughter, or one sparrow does not go unnoticed by an ever-watching and loving Heavenly Father.
I hope the Holloways can feel the comforter that only comes from the person that has taken on our sins. Justice will ultimately come to those that hurt Natalee and ended her life. It may just be after death, standing before the judgement bar of God for those responsible will then pay for their lies, deceit, rape and murder, and the unbearable anguish they have caused Natalee's loved ones.
My humble opinion.

[Susan]

Did BHT hold a press conference tonight as was mentioned on this blog earlier?
Also, any more news on this supposed dig?

[Susan]

I'm hoping that the investigators on this case will tail Juran and the Kalpoe bros, wire tap their phones and monitor their computers in the days, weeks and months ahead. You KNOW they will be talking to each other about this case and maybe they'll let something slip out. Scott Peterson went back to the scene where he dumped Lacy's body, maybe one or more of these guys will do the same. So I hope they are observed and monitored carefully!!

[mena]

yes she did. I think she is leaving but not giving up. what else can she do? she will continue to pursue the disappearance of her daughter. Sbe will have to do it from home. she will have plenty of support.

[Susan]

That poor woman. I'm a mom too and I can only imagine her heartbreak, frustration and anger over the entire situation. I only hope she knows how many good people in the world are with her in spirit.

[bite]

I never saw anything on the news except New Orleans news. Did anyone hear anything about the NH case?

[PinkCobrazz]

I'm really surprised that defense attorney
of Joran's didn't try to convince that judge
that the collapse of that coral bridge in
aruba yesterday..was caused by all the digging
for Natalee.

What a shame. No evidence. A perfect crime.

[bite]

Miz Sharon thanks for seeing the humur.

[bite]

If I am alone, then I can fill this whole page up with dirvel, for I know not much, but can sure blog up a major dig....what is a major dig. I thought that was oil drilling(ese.)

[bite]

Well, if there is a dig, they must be making one of those fameous dutch dykes they don't like to share. We have engineers in the army corps that can do the same thing. We have a think tank in Norther Va (at least there) who can out think anyone on the face of the planet, except of course the Vandersloots (they wish.) Right now I am just trying to jerk chains so someone will get on here and give me an argument. I must be alone. Gosh, it is lonely here at the top. Yes, it is.Some may say they are planting strawberry fields forever.

Does anyone know how closely the police looked at the other members of the Mountain Brook High School trip? I wonder, for example, about a boy she may have gone to the prom with and then kind of gently dumped. Could a jilted boyfriend have followed her or accidentally encountered her on the beach after, as they said, the Kalpoes and Joran vander Sloot left her there? Could he have been drunk and smoldering with anger? Could he have done something rash he later blanked out of his memory?

[bite]

Anything is possible, but not likely given all the circumstances that have been presented and the past behaviors of the boyz.

One date to a prom and he is going to follow her to the end of the earth to kill her while he is at a college doing orientation. What have I missed here?

Canada Goose--Very eloquently put. I agree with you. God has a plan & Beth can put forth all the effort she wants (& she has) but if it is not in God's timing for her to know the truth then all her hard work is in vain. "Let go & Let God" I imagine that's difficult to do though when you are dealing with LE that dont seem to be doing their job.

Posted by: Magnolia | Sep 4, 2005 12:00:06 AM

Magnolia--Other posters have presented that same question but where is her body? Did he take her home in his suitcase? I seriously doubt anyone on that trip that night had the wherewithall to completely dispose of a body on an island they were unfamiliar with. But then again none of know what really happened.

God Bless Natalee's family.

=========================
It was said that the prom date was just a family friend, not a boyfriend, but an escort to the prom. However, we never heard much about the young man she met while there and was reported to have had breakfast with several mornings while there, not one of the MBHS group. Apparently this guy left the island right after her disappearance.

[marcia]

Joran and the Kalpoes are probably partying it up at C & C as we speak!

[SgtSally]

Her prom date...posed in front of his dad's Corvete in all the pictures on TV was an older guy that Jugs fixed her up with as she didn't have a boyfriend at the time...according to the MB crowd.
She did have an ex-boyfriend on the trip...besides the one from the 9th grade that everyone refers too. JEREMY BROWN was a senior and on the trip. We don't know who dumped who or if it was mutual. At some point rumors wanted that the ex boyfriend did not leave Aruba as the immigration department did not register his departure however, according to American Airlines Jeremy Brown was on the flight back to the US on May 30.

[Rubby]

THe dig is a joke, really a "dig" at the family as they pack up and leave the Isle that stole their daughter. "Look at us Ms Holloway, we are digging again for you"

Screw u Aruba!!!!!!

[vincent]

I see Deepak has added to his Tickle site message-charming, really swell. Seems he doesn't "give a F@#%" if we think him "arrogant".

Um, "arrogant" isn't exactly the word I had in mind to describe him:\

[Mulder]

Joran,

You may not be a murderer, you may not be a rapist. However, it is without reasonable doubt that you know more than you say.

So, for not having the courage to say what you did, or what you know, I brand you a coward and I brand you a liar.

Do you know what that means?

My son Joran - he's a liar
My boy Joran - coward
My brother Joran - a coward and a liar
Their drinking buddy Joran - liar.
That guy Joran from school - liar.

Liar and a coward. Don't ever forget that Joran.

Yes, "Something Bad Happened"!

3 Spineless, Punk boys were released.

They think they can play games with us and our computers, but we are far more intelligent, and that goes without saying.
School in Holland? Humm.....seems I knew someone, that knew someone else there, that knew somebody there that was someone, that was really "charming, really swell", you know their kind of people.

Yes this came from the U.S.A. and remember, We Don't Forget.

SO REMEMBER THAT VERSION PUNK BOYS!

[clintcarter]

It's a darn good thing that part about being 'far more intelligent' goes without saying.

Because you sure didn't manage to say it.

[anonymous]

Interesting that right after the New Orleans fiasco takes over the news, the three boys are released. Prior to Katrina everyone saw they had arrested the Kalpo brothers for rape and murder.

Unless they have a superb plan to follow the boys very closely, they have blundered this case terribly.

[andy]

I have free bumper stickers. Email me a street address, free shipping, they are 4"x6" oblong with Aruba inside a circle crossed out like a no smoking sign with "Find Natalee" below it.

[rabroy]

Shango theory is probably correct.The message is clear. For some reason the Aruban Judiciary and government do not want the truth to come out.There is definitely something very bady that would come out if the whole truth is told.It is clear who is involved and responsible in this case.But the criminals would be protected because the tuth would hurt Aruba as a country, period.In the mean time games are being played while they make sure the truth should not come out. Beth and the FBI would soon tire and leave and the much awaited occurs!The case closes!
