EquuSearch Founder Heading Back To Aruba To Search For Holloway
Aruban Police Commissioner Thinks Missing Teen May Be Inside Fish Trap

HOUSTON -- The founder of Texas EquuSearch said he and a team of divers from Florida will travel to Aruba after investigators there revealed they might know where to find the body of a missing Alabama teen, KPRC Local 2 reports.

Natalee Holloway disappeared in June while on a high school class trip to Aruba. She has not been seen since.

On Friday, EquuSearch founder Tim Miller and a deepwater search team from Florida will travel back to Aruba to search an area three to five miles off the island's coast that is between 800 to 1,000 feet deep.

Miller told KPRC Local 2 that Aruba's police commissioner told him that he feels Holloway might be inside a fish trap dropped deep into the water.

"The night she disappeared is the same night a fisherman's hut got broken into and a huge fish trap got stolen. Some big knives got stolen, and none of it has been found since," Miller said.

The cage the commissioner referred to is similar a crab trap people could buy at a hardware store.

"If she is, in fact, in that huge fish-trap like we think there is a possibility, I am optimistic that the equipment we've got will be bringing Natalee back," Miller said.

The founder of the volunteer search-and-rescue organization told KPRC Local 2 that he does not believe Holloway ever left Aruba.

"Our whole goal is none other than to bring Natalee Holloway home," Miller said. "It's too early to just say it's over with. There are still some things to do."

Miller told KPRC Local 2 that the last time he was in Aruba, he was threatened with arrest because he was working without a permit. He said he told authorities that he wasn't working for anyone and that he was a volunteer.

Good for Equusearch! I admire their tenacity. I always felt there was a definite connection betw. the break-in at the Fishermen's huts and the disposal of Natalee's body.

I want to believe that they want to resolve it - but I just think they (Aruba) will keep jerking people around - for nothing other than show.

I don't know as a mom - how you keep going on - not having answers -

I sure love seeing those empty beach pictures.

It's amazing that anybody connected with the Holloway Twitty's or Beth Twitty get "threatened with arrest" everytime they try to use new methods and equipment to find Natalee!!! It appears that the "Official Plan" has ALWAYS been that Natalee's body would NEVER be found.

Notice how Aruba ALWAYS throws up a road block of some kind every time someone actually wants to do some "real" investigating??? They are so transparent it makes me literally sick.
