Wondering if this is real, or even real legal, if so?
Beth Holloway Twitty stayed with me and my family last week in Philadelphia. I watched this mother cry. My family and I cried with her. Her tears are tears of pain, sorrow, loss. My mother's tears are of sympathy. Mine, however ARE NOT – mine are of pure anger.
Even if, by some miracle, Natalee walks through the door tomorrow, I want the cowardly PUNKS who hurt her to know that THEY STILL HAVE ME TO CONTEND WITH – and I am a problem that NOBODY wants. Yes, I've been on both sides of the law. I was young once. Things happen. That's life. It's not how you start the race; it's how you finish it.
Several of my associates are in Aruba as we speak. Within the next five days, several more will join them. The ability to easily enter this third world cesspool continues to astonish all of us. It's more difficult to enter the New York City subway system than it is to enter Aruba – security there should be at an all-time high, not NON-EXISTENT. I want Americans to know that they are vulnerable to our enemies from all over the world while in Aruba, as vulnerable as if they were wearing a white shirt with a red Bull's eye on the back.
I have spoken to Philadelphia City Council and many high-ranking elected officials and asked when a Resolution will be passed calling for a BOYCOTT of Aruba as a tourist destination. As a result, pressure will be put on the cruise ships to use other ports, and THEN we will have the UNDIVIDED ATTENTION of Aruba and its government.
Speaking of the people of Aruba, I am not after them – I feel bad that they are going to suffer due to a lethargic and lackadaisical response from their government. I suggest that the people of Aruba apply pressure from within to get some answers in the Holloway case, and do it quickly.
I have vowed on World television, to Beth Twitty, to myself, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, to my own mother, that I WILL NOT GIVE UP until this case is resolved to MY satisfaction. Screw closure. Screw justice. I believe in REVENGE.
These three pieces of TRASH have a Sicilian on their tail who has arms and eyes that can reach and see AROUND THE WORLD. They can run, but they can't hide. I want them and the Aruban government to look at me and know that they are out of their league.


Because we already discussed them all already.
Why do you thing that almost everybody is against this so called boycott? It's because Beth and others are generalizing by tring to punish all Arubians.

No one is 100% without sin, letsbefair, no one ! What he said on that show was that he wanted them raped to feel what they had done to Natalee. That is NOT valid to declare a person a homosexual.Yes, he has a temper, but many do. He is not capable of murder, just justice. Slamming his Mother is as low as u can get I feel. That is 1 spot for any human being to be hit below the belt, insults regarding their Mother. A Mother is a saint type person to many. NO matter WHAT she does wrong, she is defended IF she raised you, and IF u love her.

How can you ask for proof against a man who is threatening physical harm to 3 people for committing a crime that there is no proof that they did it. For that matter, there is no proof of what the crime was or even if a crime was ever committed?

...Not from me you didnt, I do not 'generalize' any culture nor do I blame any culture for what may be the act of a few.
Secondly, those suspected of being involved are not Aruban.

I guess Sicilian Joe was turned down entry into the Philly mob. He's trying to be a bad boy all on his own.
Joe, I spit on you for all of the good italians out here. For your mother? Did you rape for your mother? Did you launder money for your mother?

I truly believe the dutch on Aruba are responsible for this mess..not the Arubans..the dutch have taken advantage of the native Arubans for years...they gave Beth the microphone and soapbox to stand on each and every time she was there...the native Arubans need to stand up and take control of their country and quit letting the dutch dictate their lives..if not the native Arubans will always be subserviate to the dutch...the situation that has occured regarding NH has given them the opportunity to tell the dutch...no more..btw..the Dutch in the Netherlands are not to be confused with the elitist dutch in aruba..

IF YOU WANT REVENGE PLEASE GO TO COLOMBIA TOO AND LOOK FOR NATALY BUT BE CAREFULL FOR THE SICARIOS (HITMAN). THEY ASK ONLY $50 FOR A TAKE OUT JOB…AND I DON’T THINK THEY LIKE YOU.

Some interesting facts about joe. His company, Cutler Eggs, has plants in PA, AL, and El Salvador. There has been a huge increase in money laundering in ElSalvador, as the traditional Carribean centers are being shut down. The Salavadoran plant produces pasturized egg products for hotels.
Posted by: katya | Monday, November 14, 2005 at 09:08 PM
what is that suppose to mean...a business in El Salvador?..gee whiz..if you have ever been there..the money thing starts on the street and doesn't stop until it hits wall street..this is true of hundreds of companies from around the world who do business there and every other third world country..do you remember kathie lee gifford and the honduras plants makin her clothes..
Posted by: knot | Monday, November 14, 2005 at 09:16 PM
It now seems like the majority of people are against Beth. It also seems like the majority are sticking up for the three boys who lied from the start and tried to pin this crime on two black guys. It blows my mind that people would be sticking up for three boys that have lied to the investagators over and over. If anyone should be to blame in this case it should be against the aruban government for not taking the boys in from day one and then letting any evidence that may have been there slip away while the three were out free for eight days while the two innocent black guys were behind bars. If the boys are innocnet why would they lay the blame on two poor black guys. Please people remember what this story is truly about and stop attacking a mother that has lost their child.

THE ARUBIAN GOVERNMENT IS PART OF THE BODY THAT APPOINTS THE PROSECUTORS AND JUDGES, GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT BEFORE YOU START SHOUTING.
Posted by: dugo | Nov 14, 2005 9:07:34 PM
I DISAGREE WITH YOU...
All judges are appointed by the Queen of the Netherlands. Not through elections or political appointments.
Government/executive branch does not have the power to take any prosecutorial desicions.
This is done by the court.
Prosecutor job:
* Limited & specific powers:
*Denominated as chief of investigation by law. Rarely directly involved in the investigation, usually provides general instructions and police in charge of investigative activities.
* Prosecutorial decisions. Monopoly on which cases go to court. If prosecutor chooses to dismiss a case, that decision can be appealed to the Appellate Court, in which case an order to prosecute could follow. *. Prosecuting attorney at trial
* Execution of any sentence imposed
Posted by: abott | Monday, November 14, 2005 at 09:23 PM
Yes I have been to El Salvador. I was suggesting the joe is opperating a money laundry in El Salvador and wonder how that connects back to Alabama, start looking at the links between the main players in this drama, there is a lot of association with criminal behaviour.
Yes, I'm wearing my tinfoil hat, tonight..
I'm not even expressing an opinion, just wild speculation.
Posted by: katya | Monday, November 14, 2005 at 09:28 PM
I agree brent..a minor point...not the Aruban government...but the dutch on the island who control it are to blame...and they use the native Arubans as a shield..I for one am tired of seeing the good people of Aruba being used for the dutch elitist...
Posted by: knot | Monday, November 14, 2005 at 09:29 PM
I think the Royal Netherlands Embassy has a obligation to get to the State Department and put a cap on this as it could cause a real crisis. The Netherlands is a member of NATO and the EU and we do not need this fool starting an international uproar.The Dutch foreign ministry will look with a very low view on crime in Aruba and the Netherlands which springs from the United States. There are Dutch soldiers in Iraq with the soldiers of the US. This Joe sounds like a real threat to justice and an outrage to decent people everywhere. The Department of State needs to unload a ton of bricks on his ass.
Posted by: Robert | Monday, November 14, 2005 at 09:33 PM
K..that is some speculation...I would have no expertise in the money washin part of the deal..but it does appear to me from what I've read here so far...is the people on this board would like to see all of Joe M's chickens get the bird flu...LOL...me? I'll reserve my opinion till all of this plays out...
Posted by: knot | Monday, November 14, 2005 at 09:36 PM
Well, I have forwarded that letter on to the appropriate individuals. He is a blowhard that is just angry that he has been rejected and can't do anything but sit on the sidelines making idol threats.
Anyone who supports Beth should take a good look at the kind of people she prefers to hang out with over her own son. HER OWN SON comes second to this piece of trash. Think about it!!!
Beth Twitty is the trash.

He probably knows very well who owns the Casino’s. Don't be so ignorant, Sicilians stick together. You can bet he wouldn’t shoot his mouth off if he didn’t think he could. Perhaps the power's to be at the Casino's want this settled now, maybe they hooked Beth up with Joe after all wasn’t there a casino owner living somewhere in the States that was implicated in someway I think it was she had breakfast with this guy.
Think about it if he screwed with the mob they'd have him for breakfast. If in fact the underworld owns the Casino's they defiantly don't want a boycott. So why not send in Joe. Go get'em Joe!!!
By the way there are Americans that would have kicked the door down at the Van der Sloots the first night they were suspicious of them. I wood have. If I'm wrong they can deport me and one of my brothers would take my place. I'm from a big Sicilian family myself 13 brothers and sisters that would rip someone apart. When a sex offender moves into our neighborhood the police warn him about my family everybody's related be careful there won't be enough of you left to prosecute.

The Arubian Government consists of the executive (including the police) and legislative branch (parliament). Holland is responsible over the judicial branch. Mistakes can be done but I love and I’m proud over the Dutch and their judicial system. It’s 100% better compare to the many corrupted countries in the Western Hemisphere.… believe me…
