As long as they were on beach patrol they should have reported their results. If her flight was for a few days later, maybe, but what RESPONSIBLE teen MISSES their flight? She was a responsible person. To assume this was a fling is just another act of negligence. jmo
This is the legacy of stupid sluts like Jennifer Wilbanks, and that loopy drama queen Audrey Seiler. Now when sensible, responsible girls like Natalee go missing, the authorities all assume that it is another case similar to that of the dingbats.
Instead of throwing Wilbanks in prison, she is rewarded with book and movie deals.
That is what is wrong with American popular culture. The good girls have to suffer because of the idiocy of the promiscuous and selfish ones.
