Given the bizarre and sickening events we've seen in the last few weeks your neat publicity photo of Aruba seems accurate enough.

I wish I could find a pohoto of the correctional facility on the island - it is immense!

[cajungirl]

I just now remember the words..


God made the Irish, he didn't make much
But they're a helluva lot better than the G,,Damn Dutch
Glory us, Glory us
One keg of beer for the four of us
Glory be to God that there are no more of us
Cause one of us can drink it all alone, damn beer

Re: that post I brought over from tripadvisor, someone says it was speculation between 2 radio announcers. Not to be quoted.

To all,
Was on SM forum when iquitos posted this..
questioned iquitos twice..
it turned out to be two radio announcers "speculating" on a "possible scenario".. (according to what iquitos said he heard).. iquitos said do not quote him on this..
So until you hear otherwise, (officially), that "URGENT" report was mere speculation.. F.Y.I.
Thanks!

I'm hopeful, too, since you mentioned the possibility of her being drugged and blind-folded.

I had only thought that the people who have her would be worried about being identified.

[CitizenM]

I have a different idea from House of Cards. I think they are desperately trying not to have revealed the extent of the criminality in Aruba and think the Casa Nostra is still involved, in particular that Culiano {spelling is wrong} family who have a foot in the whole area including Cuba.

I think nothing will fall apart other than for the people who had contact with Nat. The criminals are far bigger than this, far more vicious and entrenched.

Yes, that thought crossed my mind also. You have much more info. about all the possible "players" and how really bad it is. I guess we are all surmising, but now realize it was not just VDS and Natalee and a little mishap, accident, or an interlude gone sour. It is a big freaking crime ring involved somehow.

The people involved sure picked the wrong American girl to mess with. After all the recent kidnappings here, we are just not going to sit by and let our children come to harm or disappear without beating down every door ourselves. Mothers like Natalee's mom are going to fight, and have a whole country behind her. I hope she holds up. Bless her and give her all the courage she needs now.

RENEE VAN HANEGEM

[cajungirl]

The dead man?

Gotta go google, yall get outa my way.

[presently no screen name]

Is her mom alone in Aruba. Any family with her?

[CitizenM]

LOL...OH, ROFLOL...I remember that from so long ago. Yea to the Irish.

Hey, by the way...does anyone remember their history? The DUTCH started the slave trade idea. It appears that Aruba has come by their covert activities naturally. The "inclination" or ease of/look the other way attitude of authorities about illegal trafficking was most likely inherited from the earliest Dutch settlers.

[CitizenM]

I saw her ex-husband had been there quite a while and was very actively pursuing this with her. I don't know if he is still there, or if others are. They seem to be a very close family so I would assume she is not alone. Not sure, however. Maybe someone else knows.

[txrangerette]

Her husband, who is Natalee's stepfather, and Natalee's father and his wife, at the very least, are down there.

[cajungirl]

found nothig on google but a Willem Van Henegem who is a Dutch soccer player, a good one.

[Palladin]

Here's a re-post from the first Natalee Thread:

"HUMAN TRAFFICKING (SLAVERY) - Legislative Update - (up to 900,000 victims each yr; mostly children)"

Excerpt:

Worldwide news reports say bartenders from Cancun to Aruba to Jamaica regularly spike the drinks of unsuspecting women with drugs such as Rohypnol (roofies) and GHB (Liquid Extacy) for the purpose of "date-rape,"

but reports also indicate the increasing use of narcotics to place women in a submissive state to move them into position for transportation to Caribbean Island

and South American brothels for indefinite periods for use as drugged prostitutes in known white slavery rings.

Late at night, Aruba’s California lighthouse easily serves as a beacon to guide boats to the deserted beach to quickly drop off and pick up narcotics--

but news show guests intimated that submissive females, drugged by bartenders or other patrons at a popular club like Carlos and Charlie’s could be victims of sexual transport.

"Spotters," paid to watch for attractive women on vacation as potential sex slaves guide them into a bar to be drugged and then out into a waiting car and boat for transportation to mainland or island bordellos.

[Rippersnapper]

Gotta go google, yall get outa my way.

LOL

[cajungirl]

Like some kind of bad movie isnt' it?

[MrNatural]

This is really ugly.

[Palladin]

At least bad movies have an ending!

[Palladin]

These island perversions are now being exposed to the light.

That's a good thing.

[CitizenM]

It certainly is for us. For Natalee's family it is an ongoing Nightmare. We are in our comfortable homes, wondering, googling, FReepering. They are probably exhausted, feeling sweaty and drained, not eating properly, not sleeping well, etc. This has got to be life altering, and even life threatening for some of them. Stress like this is unbearable.

I had a family tragedy and I remember the desperation that lasted for so very long. And the adrenaline that kept pumping until I was so hyped I could barely breath.

I feel so sorry for all her family and friends. The saddest part was how unavoidable it could have been if the "chaperones" used more common sense and didn't rely on that stupid contract the kids signed. That part really irks me.

[CitizenM]

And speaking of being drained...I have got to go to bed. Had my PB & J crackers, donned my FReeper jammies. Now it is time to get some ZZZZZ's.

I hope this case is solved while I am sleeping, and solved with Natilee found alive. My prayers will be for that until she is safe.

G'night all! You are some of the best Sherlocks around!!!
