I thought one of Natalee's friends came forward and said that it was them and not Natalee that was sick in some restroom.

I found the other post.

Natalie on Party Boat day of diapearence.

This was a post on Aruba.com before the discussion was taken down. It reports that she was on a snorkling\party cruise the day before she disappeared.

I saved it because it seem to be an authentic firsthand account.

Author: Michele Gumm (---.newhav01.mi.comcast.net) Br>Date: 06-03-05 13:01 My husband and I were in Aruba last week and spent time with the girls on The DePalm tours snorkel/booze cruise. We saw Natalie later that night at Carlos and Charlies and we commented that she was up to partyubg that night because of the exhaustive day we had on the boat. When we saw her leave she left by herself. No one was with her but we did notice some local guys talking to her while she was in there. I do not know if this will help but my heart goes out to the family and I can not believe this has happened.I live 4000 miles away outside of Detroit, Michigan and I feel like it happened to somone I know having spent tome with them on the boat. I even have pictures of them.I will pray for her and her family. Sincerly John and Michele Gumm

These radio reports are coming from the community.

Sorry, it's rather confusing.

Arubagirl:

This is all hearsay, so my apologies if it's not true:

van Rijn is 23, going on 24. He's very close to van der Sloot, and his father hanged himself after a life filled with drugs. I've HEARD that the son also does drugs, don't know it. Have also HEARD that he walks armed, but don't know for sure.

I've HEARD he lives at Jaraweg, but before he lived on the Savaneta main road.
