thanks, but I'm lucky to pull off a copy/paste link that works, LOL.

Croes posting is chilling, moreso than when he did it so long ago.....taken with the rumor of him visiting VDS before meeting Beth that nite and the apparent power or protection that PVDS seems to have, the implications could be exponential. Pretty substantial for a failed test or substitute judge, whatever the truth is. And remember that years ago he was involved in a big way in the investigation/prosecution of one of Jossy's relatives.

I'd like to give Croes AND Jossy some truth serum. Well, a whole bunch of them, actually.

I keep remembering what Croes said, and hoping he will make some further revelation to the FBI or DEA or something like that.

He has the cell phone business and, if I remember right, also a clothing store called BOSS on the main street. I would think he knows just about everyone on Aruba.

I wasn't sure about Jossy for the longest time, but I think he might be a good guy. Sincere in his efforts to help Natalee's family. Of course, I've been wrong about some of the players in this story.

I've heard him express concern about the damage this case has done to Aruba, but unlike his counter parts, he has placed the blame of this damage where it belongs. He has been fair and supportive of the family, particularly Beth.

I appreciate the help his family has given with the searches. Jossy's son was involved hands on with the landfill searches.

I think it was a very helpful move for Jossy to print the family's letter to the Aruban AG. The reason given is to educate the Arubans about the truths Natalee's family has encountered that shows the reason for the family's anger.

Perhaps Jossy is trying to stir up some local activism in support of Natalee's family to put pressure on ALE and the prosecutor to solve this case. I think Jossy has long ago figured out that justice for Natalee will prevent the further economic damage to Aruba. Now the populace needs to realize this and seek justice for Natalee.

Do you remember a long time ago there being mention that CC was possibly CIA? I don't think so myself but you never know because they actually HAVE to make like they are playing both sides. The "power" that PVDS has imo is that he likely has some dirt on some of the high officials in the Justice Department. I can't see this whimpish shifty man being any more important than perhaps having some knowledge about officials. He's not SMART enough to pass a Judge's examination so I doubt he's smart enough to be a Mafia type. He simply has connections in the Justice department. This island is used to COVERING it's dirt and the fact is it is COMPLETELY CORRUPT. They do NOT want that to get out. The MAJOR complication in this case is the fact that it was Van der Sloots SON that is the murderer. He can't have his son be convicted as a murderer.
