Joran Van der Sloot, Films Self in Jail: ‘I am Making This Video For My Own Security’

Joran Van der Sloot, suspect in Natalee Holloway disappearance, films self in jail: ‘I am making this video for my own security’

The 27-year-old convicted killer was transferred to a maximum security prison last month and quickly went on a hunger strike to protest the jail's conditions. The Dutch citizen is serving 28 years in prison for killing a Peruvian business student in 2010 and is the prime suspect in Holloway's 2005 disappearance.

New video shows Dutch convicted murderer Joran Van der Sloot — the prime suspect in Natalee Holloway's disappearance — behind bars in Peru.

Recorded in a maximum security prison in a remote area of South American country, the video was shot on a jail director's cellphone, Van der Sloot explained.

"I am making this video for my own security," he said. He admitted that he wasn't sure why the jail's head let him use the phone.

Then, the video cuts to footage of a prison guard frisking the convicted killer in a lineup with other inmates and taking his blood pressure.

Last week, Van der Sloot went on a hunger strike to protest the conditions in his jail.

The 27-year-old Dutch citizen was transferred to the maximum-security facility last month after he threatened to kill the warden of his previous jail.

Van der Sloot is serving 28 years in prison for murdering a 21-year-old Peruvian businesses student, Stephany Flores, in 2010. Peru could extradite him to the U.S. for questioning over Holloway's 2005 disappearance — but not before his current prison term is up, NBC News reported.

Van der Sloot was the last person seen with Holloway before she went missing while on a graduation trip to Aruba.

Earlier this year, he married his pregnant girlfriend, Leidy Figueroa.

She's apparently one of those who just have to pee on the electric fence.

Are we stuck forever with “film” as a verb, even though nobody uses film anymore.

“Video,” “videoing”? Clumsy. “Record”? Ambiguous. Is it an audio or a video recording?

But “to film” when there is no such thing as film is so stupid!

The LEAST he can do is man up and let Natalie’s mom know what happened to her daughter. I’m sure Joran’s father got some too before she was killed. PIGS, both of them. I think Joran’s dad died of a heart attack while playing tennis?

In third world prisons, you can get anything if you have the money.

OBVIOUSLY, this guy is beyond scumbag-he a sociopathic killer.

BUT, I can’t imagine being his parents! That would be a nightmare.

There might be something to that.

I’ve been able to spot ‘problem guys’ when my wife or daughters wouldn’t find a problem with them. They would be all friendly with them, while I’d be thinking of a place to hide the body after the inevitable happens....

After all was said & done, an American girl was still never found and American tourists continue to flock to the island of Aruba to spend their $$ to support the corrupt.

Nice.

Women, on average, can read people better than men. Their survival depended on it far more.

However, they can be completely blinded by someone physically attractive. Serial killers who mentally lure their victims pretty much always are.

Men are the same way and the brain almost shuts down in the presence of a very attractive female. Even if everyone knows she is nothing but trouble, guys will line up out the door to be with her.

He still has a chance to get out of Peruvian prison. If he admits to murdering an American girl that the entire world heard about, he’s going away for good.

Hilarious. Do you actually believe that? I think it's far more likely he'll be punished more severely in Peru than in the U.S.A.

First of all, the U.S. government doesn't care at all about U.S. citizens who are murdered in other countries. Secondly, she was killed in Aruba, so it's outside the U.S. jurisdiction anyway.
