I have thought from the getgo that she had been given a drug. Hubs and I had the same initial reaction. It doesn't fit that she'd 'go out on a limb' like that, on her last night there, especially.
I can buy that she used bad judgment and may have let her hair down - and her guard - a tad more than usual, given the celebratory nature of the trip.
The rest is on that monster's head. He's lucky I'm not NH's mom. I wouldn't be as nice as she has been.
Nor I.
I would have been bordering on jail time long ago. LOL
Yep. And it is apparently the MO of date rape guys to pull a stunt on the last night before a girl leaves the island. Makes sense on several levels.
I agree. Didn't Sloot say that Natalee came on to him? I'm wondering if at the casino when she asked him to meet her at Carlos & Charlie's, if ol' playboy Sloot the Younger, took that as a come on and invite. Some of the women going there may be easy and he may have thought she was too, because of her invite. Not a smart thing to do. I'm not saying he was right, what I am saying is that he may have viewed that as leading him on. Remember, his best friend Jamie supposedly said that 'she deserved what she got' or something like that?
I think Sloot decided she had led him on. He was already at home, and returned to town because of her invitation. She may not have intended it to be taken the way he took it. I'm pretty sure she didn't. Being inexperienced to the bar scene though, she made a very bad mistake at the casino, in inviting him to meet her at C&C.
I doubt that she was drugged. Sloot didn't think he needed to drug her drink, she did after all invite him to meet her at C&C's. I do think that when she refused his advances that 'something bad happened'.
