Beth Holloway was extorted. Joran van der Sloot took money from her and used it to finance his trip to South America where it is now believed he murdered.
Beth Holloway wanted to know what happened to her daughter. Joran van der Sloot said he would tell her if she paid him. She brought in the FBI. The events happened in Aruba.
The FBI, as early as May 10, knew they had a case against Joran van der Sloot for wire fraud and extortion but failed to act until today. Had they arrested him when they had the case against him, May 10, he would not have had the money to travel to South America and murder...
Beth Holloway's money was used - extorted - to make the unthinkable happen.

“”Joran van der Sloot was accused of asking for $250,000 in exchange for information about the whereabouts of Natalee Holloway’s remains in Aruba, according to the U.S. Attorney in Birmingham.
Van der Sloot received a partial payment of $15,000 “after representing to the other person that he would provide the location of Natalee Holloway’s remains in Aruba and information regarding the circumstances of her death,” said U.S. Attorney Joyce White Vance.””
That dude shoulda just stayed in Dawson’s Creek.
What crap! Beth Holloway did not cause this girl’s murder.
I hope the Holloway family can find some solace in his capture. I’m afraid the sadist Van Der Sloot will never reveal the whole story to the family......
If it were my daughter and law enforcement had failed as badly as Aruba's did, I would do that in a heartbeat.
If she hadn’t told the FBI, I would agree with you. As it is, she did her part in a trap that the FBI allowed to fall apart, not that they were expecting a murder.
I agree. He would have gotten the money to go from somewhere else.
FBI = Full Blown Incompetents.
Yep.
Eric Holder - Epic Fail! again.

This isn't the FBI's fault. When you have a operation like this in the works, it's not the local FBI field office running the show, it's the USA for that district. This is 100% Eric Holder's fault, period.
“What crap! Beth Holloway did not cause this girl’s murder.”
You are right, but Beth’s family might want to do suicide vigil for a while.
I heard that the mom and dad were divorced and the dad begged her not to let Natalie go on the trip.
This reminds me of that scene in “Die Hard” where the terrorist says, “You ask for a miracle? I give you the F...B...I.”
Van der Slut will never survive prison in Peru—if he makes it that far.
Sounds like the plot for “Taken”. If I was her father, Der Sloot would disappear himself.
Why would they? Beth is still trying to find out what happen to her daughter...she has no control over what that pig did...she is not psychic.
You got some unchained links there.
