The one girl was "Natalee's" best friend. One of the girls stated that they left about 1am, WITHOUT Natalee. What was Natalee doing that she couldn't leave with her friends? Was she even still at the casino. I am convinced that they know she left with someone way before they did and are afraid to tell the truth.

I'd like to see a transcript of these kid's statements...they seem very inconsistent to me.

And, IMHO, part of the inconsistency may very well be due to the amount of alcohol in their systems at that time of the night.

Regardless, things are not adding up.

Maybe some of the inconsistencies are coming up because kids are trying to hide some of the things they did themselves. Not that they had anything at all to do with the crime but maybe they were partying so much themselves they weren't as observant as they should have been and maybe missed some warning signs.
