I wonder what, if anything, they have to show the judge in order to hold them for the first 8 days?

Don't know, but my guess at this point is that the phone call might be the link.

What will be interesting is what happens when these 8 days are up for Sloot and the brothers. Will they continue to be detained or let go?

If they are let go and there is no resolution/confession - Aruba's economy will go even further down the drain.
