TEEN WAS SEEN WITH NATALEE-HOTEL TAPE SHOWS ARGUMENT WITH MYSTERY MAN

This investigation is like the Keystone Cops.

This girl and her parents deserve so much more.

[Williams]

First, if she was seen with someone AFTER being with Joran, then duh Joran is not likely the killer.

Second, let this be a lesson to all armchair jurors who are so sure a person is a murderer based on TV reports. Now many will be sure this "new" kid killed her and the father edited the surveillance tapes.

Many many times things we are sure must be the truth just aren't.

Looks like a jealous rage incident. Occam's razor.

Great Tagline!

I do remember Natalie's freinds mentioning something about her being in love with a blue eyed boy and I assumed that she was talking about Joran. I don't recall hearing about Natalie calling her Mom though. Interesting...

[Junior_G]

Indeed! We should have front page and top of the news coverage on this every day until they either find who killed her or she shows up. Yes!

Fox News really needs to take it to the next level with a separate channel dediated to this critical story. How about NNN: Natalee News Network.

....the casino's video surveillance tapes were turned over to police, investigators could find no sign of Holloway and van Cromvoirt, the source noted.

Van Cromvoirt's father is the security expert in charge of video surveillance at the hotel.

DUH. Dad is an expert in charge of surveillance and the police couldn't find any signs of his son on the tapes. Can anyone spell erased?

"Fox is spinning off the Fox: Crime of the Century Channel."

I heard they're also spinning off a Fox High Speed Pursuit channel. FHSP will cover high speed pursuits around the world, non-stop.

I can hardly wait!

"How about NNN: Natalee News Network."

I like it, but it would cut down on Free Republic posts about the case, and that's not a good thing.

[justche]

But yet here you both are talking about something you apparently can't stand the coverage of....it always cracks me up when people complain about threads that they are posting on.

[spectre]

When the case first broke, Beth Holloway said that Natalee hadn't called her even once during her vacation.

But recently, the Aruban LE went to Alabama and interviewed the high school kids, so maybe some of Natalee's friends spoke about the new suspect.

It's a very interesting new twist to this case.

LOL! That thought has always crossed my mind too. Usually on the Hannity Thread.

[tallhappy]

It was a Duke LaCrosse player -- the plot thickens.

"But yet here you both are talking about something you apparently can't stand the coverage of...."

Actually, I'm not talking about the Natalie thing at all. And the other person you pinged is the one who posted the thread in the first place.

Natalie is dead. They don't know who killed her. When they know who killed her, that will be news. At this point, it's all just speculation. It sounds like an old TV soap opera. I expect Natalie to come back to life and show back up on the show any time, with a story about how she was abducted by three gay aliens and finally escaped.

Joran's eyes are brown. I heard this long ago and dismissed it on grounds that many teens here wear colored contacts for fashion, so I figured that must be how Joran might be 'the one.'

[ANGGAPO]

Enter 007 from stage left.

[in hoc signo vinces]

I think the word you are looking for is "accessory"...

[GarySpFc]

I think all these creeps know each other. They are pathological liars who are probably all involved. GVC just had to let the trio know that Daddy was destroying the evidence and they should sit tight and shut up.

The latest kid arrested is a close friend of the tour boat operator, and I believe his name is Cruz.

Why is this news?

[wideawake]

How long was she away? When did her flight arrive on Aruba and when was the flight on which she was scheduled to leave?
