“Two houses both alike in dignity…”
As time, lies, and his father’s influence slithered by, it became painfully obvious that Joran was guilty as hell (just think O.J. Simpson or Teddy Kennedy). Many believe that the only thing that kept Joran out of jail was his daddy’s influence...
Once again young Van der Sloot murders a young woman. But this time, the role of Important Father has swung 180º. Papa Van der Sloot is dead, and the father of the murdered victim (Stephany Flores Ramirez) is none other than Ricardo Flores, a retired race car driver, powerful businessman, and twice Peruvian presidential candidate. Just as before, Joran Van der Sloot’s fate lies in the hands of an influential paternal figure, but this time Joran isn’t smirking.

OJ Simpson comes to mind as well. He thought he got away with murder the same way this sleaze ball did but sooner or later, one’s true self, always comes to the surface. Either a violent, aggressive jock or a violent, aggressive young psychopath. Too bad another young girl had to die in order for him to get arrested however I cannot help myself but wonder if there are more victims out there whose bodies were never found and families are too poor to get attention in the case of a missing young woman. However, based on his behavior, he tends to favor rich young women...
*ping*
My guess it is more access than money.
He is a rich man’s son. He has money to spend and he likes the good things in life.
He travels to poor countries with highly segregated class structures
He goes to the trendy clubs to hunt for his victims. Poor or middle class women can not afford to come under his gaze.
So luckily for the poor women; he never sees them.
Except when he's recruiting young women to sell into the sex trade.
You know, I do understand his father’s efforts to help him, however, the right way to help him was by urging his son to tell the truth, bring peace to the family of Natalie and take their chances that way. Aruba does not have the death penalty either (just like Peru) and his father was an influential judge there. But, instead, we saw proof where this young man learned his values about human life and people.
VanDerSloot is Dutch for Kennedy.
But the garbled english SEEMED to state that the police were investigating several reports of missing women that coincide with his stay in Bogata.
CAVEAT::: It could just all be a hoax, or a really bad mistranslation....
Can’t believe your post. We said the exact same thing last night about teaching your kids lessons. What kind of lesson was this to teach his teenager? You are so right. He should have taken his punishment, made ammends, apologized to the Holloways and to his own mother for breaking theirs and her heart as he did. Now his mom has to live through the whole nightmare again without the support of her husband (such as he was) . Now she has to live it alone and relive every agonizing moment over once more. Seems SHE is the one that suffered and paid the price for her son and husband’s behavior. Now once again the ugly wound is opened for the Holloways and Joran’s mother. This young man needs to be put away for the rest of his life. He cannot continue to be allowed to walk among and prey on the decent human beings. Lord rest the souls of these two young women and I hope it brings some sort of closure for the Holloway Family. As for Joran’s mother...I am sure this will take a toll on her health.

Further proof that conservative minds think alike? :)
Hope they don’t waste too much time with a trial, etc - just give him the means and leave him take the chicken way out. He needs to join Papa in Hell sooner rather than later.
Joran’s mother holds some of the blame — she didn’t have to stay silent last time around.
He would have faced a long prison sentence in the Dutch prison system. Now he’s looking at life in a Peruvian prison.
Makes you wonder how many other women he has killed.
Now he’s looking at life in a Peruvian prison.
I don’t believe his life will last very long in a Peruvian prison because:
1. Conditions there are deplorable
2. He is a foreigner who killed a home town girl
4. Van Der Kennedy is toast.
Compounded by the fact that whiteness in Peru is associated with priveledge. The whites in Peru have the money, while the folks in the slums and the prisons tend to be brown. Being a foreigner only compounds things.
BTW: For a great exploration of racial resentments amongst Peruvians themselves, read "Time of the Hero"/La Ciudad y Los Perros by Mario Vargas Llosa, about a blonde Peruvian boy's experience amongst "the other" in a military academy.
