Arlene: The fishing huts are not closed...you can't close them...they are just a roof...and they are open for everybody to just go under, so nobody keeps their fish traps there.

As I listened to Arlene say this I thought "you lying cockroach!" We've seen the pictures of the fishermens' huts and there is an enclosed area. They are not completely open with just a roof. Anyone have that picture handy to post?
Arlene is lying or my eyes are failing me.
I just reread on America's Most Wanted that:
"Today, the crew and I went back with Dave Holloway to the makeshift memorial. To most people the cross might seem like a touching tribute to the missing teenager. But the more Dave told me, the more I began to believe this cross might be an important clue in the search for Natalee.
Here's why: Just 300 yards away from the boat launch is a series of fishing huts that have become infamous on the island. In sworn statements, the three lead suspects in Natalee's disappearance -- Joran van der Sloot, Satish and Deepak Kalpoe -- told police that they left Natalee at those fishing huts the night of her disapperance.
But the news gets worse. According to police the huts were broken into around the time of her disappearence; a large knife and a huge steel fishing cage were stolen. Publicly, the police aren't linking the events. But they've asked Tim Miller to bring a deep sea search team to scan the entire coast near the boat launch -- keeping an eye out for a fishing cage."
Let's see, 300 yards away from the fishermen's huts there is a boat launch. Koen has a boat on a trailer. The fishermen's huts are broken into and a knife and huge fishing cage were stolen.
No your right, Arlene is a lying cockroach!! Always has been.
