LIMA, Peru (AP) -- The lone suspect in the disappearance of U.S. teen Natalee Holloway was paraded - moist-eyed and looking stunned - before reporters on Saturday as Peruvians denounced him and detectives began interrogating him about the murder of a Lima student.
Joran van der Sloot arrived at criminal police headquarters in a brown Interpol SUV and was escorted across an auditorium of shouting, shutter-snapping journalists three times.

I wonder if Van Der Sloot can cop a plea deal for giving up Natalie’s whereabouts.
Break him at the wheel right after we clean Tony Hayward off it.
He has to have killed several women, both before and after Natalee, and had his family shield him each time. He probably loses control of his emotions and impulses, and gets wrapped up in the moment, knowing that he has always gotten away with it. I think now he’s coming to grips with the fact that he’s on his own now, and there is no daddy coming to pull his nuts out of the fire.
I bet his pants were moist, too!
Just the thought of life in a Peruvian prison!
If not, I think if he gets stuck in a Peruvian prison he will be praying for death.
Hopefully they don’t make such a show of him that it ends in a mistrial, tho I presume Peruvian law is not so lenient as in the US.
Can you imagine what he probably got away with during his years in Asia?
Unfortunately, Peru did away with the death penalty several years ago.
But from all I’ve read, life in a Peruvian prison is hell on earth.
Not in Peru.
Good point.
I do not think Peru has the death penalty but I do think they have life without parole (based on one source).
Even accepting that he’s innocent until proven guilty in both murders (my opinion is that he’s guilty as sin), this is one first-class lowlife. “Moist eyed”?? I wonder if he was “scared” amd “moist eyed” when he smirked for the camera about what he did to Natalie Holloway? When he extorted money from her mom? When he repeatedly changed his story to the frustration of a family looking for their missing daughter? No, I don’t care that he’s scared or moist eyed and I expect he’s going to get a lot more scared and moist eyed when he meets his fellow inmates in Peru. Ptuh on Joren Vander Sloot!
Peru has a death penalty for exceptional circumstance, such as military and war crimes; murder is considered ordinary, so its unlikely.
I sure hope they observe the rigid rules of interrogation Aruba abides by. I don’t remember every detail, but they could only question Joran once or twice a day, and then for only a few hours at a time. No sleep loss allowed. Surely Peru will do likewise. /s
According to the pundits on the news, only for treason and killing a cop
Well Daddy the Judge won’t be around this time to pull his chestnuts out of the fire.
