Thanks for formatting that. It is dated the 5th. They were arrested the 9th. LE said on the 6th that there was ging to be developments or something, which I think was the arrests.
These guys were talked to, then let go and under surveillance. Must not have been a hidden type of surveillance since the author seemed to know in advance that he and his friends were in deep.
Just so I don't forget. On June 7th the two security guards were 'formally charged with murder, homicide and kidnapping leading to homicide'. Meanwhile, they have since been released and the 3 guys now sitting prison have yet to be charged with anything. I guess 'cowboy like behavior' is ok when you use it againt the locals or the 'lesser classes'.
Ok, back to this 'letter'. It sounds like damage control and there are various segments that I do not buy into. He has Natalee leaving CnC with Sloot, and Satish. He says he turned and they were already gone. While her friends have Natalee leaving/walking out, with them, and that she had fully planned to walk straight back to the hotel.
He says that Natalee was VERY drunk. Her friends say she was NOT drunk.
It is dark. It is 1:30 am yet Natalee supposedly says 'she wanted to see sharks'. Yeah right.
Has to be asked. Who is lying? The boys? Her friends? Was Natalee VERY drunk, or wasn't she? Did they go to see the sharks? Did she fall in? If so, why wouldn't the boys go immediately for help? Something just isn't right. In fact he doesn't even mention them getting out of the car to look at the sharks.
Something else he fails to mention is leaving Natalee at the beach where she falls asleep and which has become their latest story. The whole thing seems to be a means of floating abunch of excuses out there ;just in case'. jmo
someone pointed out in a post way upthread that liars often include a nugget of truth in their lies.
What struck me was his saying Nat wanted to see sharks. This is unbelievable for a girl to say in the middle of the night {unless she had been given a drug of some kind}. so his mentioning it chilled me,,was he preparing to be able to explain if a bit of bones or clothing was found in the area where the sharks are fed? Or is he confessing, albeit it not directlly, that the sharks got her. Either by accident or by design.
I don't think she is alive. And I think her mother knows it. And is being fueled by some kind of adrenalin that fuels people between loss of someone they love and the funeral. Nat's Mother has my deepest sympathy at this point. I hope I am wrong.
