Beth: She added that because of what she called corruption, discrimination and governmental apathy she believes the three men suspected in her daughter's disappearance will never be questioned by authorities again.

doing this will diminish her clout wrt Natalee's case.....by doing this she is playing into the arubans hand the way I see it. Natalee now becomes just a face in the crowd, something we have heard in different ways ad nauseum from the arubans. I'm afraid she is making a mistake.....at least as far as Natalee's case goes, but the mistake is plainly born of Beths human decency and compassion.

I found this link to a TV interview that Beth did I believe when she was in Palm Desert to speak to the National Sheriffs' Assn. that you posted. There is a TV clip on the site from her interview, but I didn't watch it.

"While her quest to find out what happened to her daughter continues, Beth Twitty told us she was shocked at the information she just received from her lawyer. Aruban authorities have apparently decided to close the investigation into the disappearance of her daughter."
