Apparently. But what? If he's holding out for that shoe...he may be sadly disappointed. Nothing else he held out hope of has panned out. If they find a (supposedly) shoe, I reckon they'll pull a Cinderella and see if it fits joran? lol
LOL! You're on a roll today.
I suspect he just wants evidence of Natalee. I think he knows she's no longer living.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry, I had a sudden "Johnnie Cochran" moment for some reason...
Let me tell everyone how difficult it may be to find a shoe (admittedly, this thread is WAY too long; I cannot possibly read all of the posts so I may have jumped in late, and I may have jumped in inappropriately as things 'strike me' such as in this particular post).
However,
I was with family one year near the seaside. We decided to dig for clams in the canals and mud flats (tidal areas). It was low tide, and seemingly, 'easy pickins'. I jumped off a bank maybe 2 feet in height, into 'soft mud'. The mud immediately began to suck me down into it. As I struggled, the deeper I became immersed. Like quicksand as one hears about it.
Luckily someone was with me; otherwise I truly believe I would have been stuck in mud when the tide began to rise above my head. He helped pull me out, but in doing so, my shoes were sucked down into the mud and came completely off my feet. Laced tennis shoes at that. I didn't mind being cut up by oyster shells and sawgrass all around my feet and ankles at that point. I was simply happy to get OUT.
If the 'perp's' shoes are in that pond, I don't know how they will ever find them; they could be under 3-4 feet of mud.
