Natalee Holloway, Part Six by Susan Kelly
May 30 marked the fifth anniversary of the disappearance of Natalee Holloway. It was, I’m sure, an occasion of great sadness for her family and friends. And a source of frustration for those who would like to see some resolution.
The case is at a standstill. Last March, a husband and wife from Pennsylvania went (more…)

Sporadic Ramblings, Natalee Holloway by Susan Kelly
Natalee Holloway, Part One
February 26, 2010
This case fascinates me. Superficially, it doesn’t appear complex. A young woman, vacationing in Aruba to celebrate her high school graduation, goes to a bar on the last night of her stay. There she meets up with a young man whom, according to some accounts, she’d encountered earlier that evening in a casino. Around closing time, the young woman leaves (More…)
Natalee Holloway, Part Two (Calling All Spirits)
February 27, 2010
All big cases attract people who claim to be in touch with the supernatural, and this one was no exception. One of my favorites was the self-proclaimed psychic who traveled to Aruba in the wake of Natalee’s vanishing, and, one night, had a dream, or vision, in which Natalee appeared to her with the (More…)
Natalee Holloway, Part Three
March 2, 2010
Well, Joran van der Sloot’s latest “confession” went as expected, although this time he managed to work up a few facial contortions intended, I suppose, to simulate grief and remorse, although he was apparently unable to squeeze out an authenticating tear.
Why is he doing this? If his conscience is bothering him–I sincerely doubt (More…)
Natalee Holloway, Part Four (The Internet Phenomenon)
March 11, 2010
If the cable stations went wild with the disappearance of Natalee Holloway, the Internet went insane. In the summer of 2005, dozens of online forums devoted to “discussion” of the case sprang up like mushrooms (and toadstools) after a summer rain. Many of them are still in existence.
By the end of the summer of 2005, (More…)
Natalee Holloway, Part Five (Natalee Herself)
March 13, 2010
Too often the victims of crime–and I believe Natalee Holloway was a crime victim–are forgotten, or at least pushed to the background, particularly when the crime is an unsolved one. The actual mystery itself assumes the forefront: people are, naturally enough I suppose, obsessed with the whodunit/howdunit/whydunit aspect of the case. Everybody loves a (More…)
Suspect in Natalee Holloway Case Confesses

AMSTERDAM (BNO NEWS) — Dutch suspect Joran van der Sloot has confessed to disposing the body of missing American student Natalee Holloway while on the Caribbean island of Aruba, a Dutch newspaper reported on Tuesday. He made the statements in front of an RTL television camera.
The statements by van der Sloot follow a similar confession more than two years ago during an undercover operation by Dutch crime reporter Peter R. de Vries, which prosecutors said did not constitute new legal evidence.
Natalee Holloway went missing on May 30, 2005 during a high school graduation trip to Aruba. The case received international media attention, but her body was never found.
The prosecutor’s office, which reportedly confirmed Monday’s report, did not immediately respond to inquiries left by BNO News as its officers were closed.
