I think if someone who had been to Aruba on a class trip prior to Natalee, told me about local hitting on young female tourists, my first thought might be "kidnapping," too. Doesn't seem strange to me at all. Plus, she might have been consciously or subconsciously worried about that all the time Natalee was away.

A sense that something was wrong (which a mother might surely feel) doesn't mean such sense was correct. There was danger, obviously. But Beth's sense of what that danger was might have been wrong.

Odd's are greatest that Nat was too old to qualify for the human traffic thing. Most likely, she OD'd from something she was given (prob by Jurine)...interaction with current medication or just a plain OD from a date rape drug or X.

Whether the issue is X or Rohypnol or GHP...it is ultimately a matter of motive on the part of the person with her (and why would Jurine walk away after investing so much in Nat).

If Jurine is a predator (and everything points to that), no one is going to interfere with that process. He wouldn't allow it.

Not to be too intuitive, but his face tells the story.

2 1/2 hours at 100+ mph before she stopped to talk to the trooper.....she got the call in the back seat E of Memphis and then took the wheel at that time.....250 miles later, where would she be? I accept Mississippi easily.

"and this woman who looks like a man...I was flipping channels and was sooo confused..it took 5 minutes to figure out the guy was a girl."

Don't know her/his (need to see some chromosome tests before I'm sure) name, but that person works at Air America, or did when they filmed that HBO documentary.

I resemble that remark. Ugly women don't look like men. They are just ugly (and they have the visage they deserve). Innocent men don't look like Anita.

I suspect that Croes may have been called by someone in the States regarding a call received pertaining to this case seeking info on the number displayed on caller ID in the States, and that upon seeing that the originating number was one for a cellphone issued by Croes in Aruba......because of that, Croes had access to the existing voicemail in that account at that time.

So you are guessing that he had access to more than just a message possibly left in the US?

Has it been determined exactly what Croes is all about? I remember reading the back and forth about his business being a cover of some sort. (Which seems like pure genius if one is trying to monitor an underworld filled with transients.)

The woman is gender confused. And she does look like a man.

Maybe there is evidence the public is not aware of that is more damning toward Joran. I thought the Holloway Twittys had some kind of smoking gun to release if and when the brothers were released, but if they have it they don't seem to be using it yet.
Is there anything about access to boats or whatever means might be used to dispose of a body?

"he has a tickle site as well. and a friend of his is also a friend of Joran's best buddy Jamie."

Not surprised. Something about that guy gives me the creeps.

"Could she have been so drunk that she walked on the beach, passed out and drowned? No, that would not be enough Drama for the MSM, including Greta who's show seems to have turned into a Drama Queen Tag Team Match."

No. The body would carry onto shore. Only bodies placed onto boats and dumped far off shore into open water float away. But I suspect you knew that already.

On behalf of the men on this thread...let me be the first to say, ugliness in a woman is not a manly thing. Ugly is just ugly.

She is ugly and not in a manly way.

"Hmm. I'm starting to buy the Shango stuff bcse that, combined with the rumored "I don't know these people" call to the student's cell at a later time makes me think the 3 creeps raped her and then handed her off to others. God help her if those others took her off island."

Oops. I see the CtTV phone call info was wrong.

"So you are guessing that he had access to more than just a message possibly left in the US?"

Yes, as his business obviously makes that possible via opening voicemails and maybe even monitoring calls on his accounts.

There can't be very many cell-providers in Aruba; there are very very many "Croes" in Aruba, apparently all locals; and this particular Croes speaks near-perfect American english, and otherwise appears to be well-schooled and savvy. I think it is likely that he is the "guy" to go to for cellphones for the type of Arubans/Dutch/Govt types in Aruba----both the decent and indecent type------I can only imagine whose cellphones he manages amongst the folks in Aruba who are involved in this case so far and those who will be revealed as time passes. Hell, the message he and Beth listened to 3 times might have been someone in the States putting in a fix with the polis, prosecutor, VDS, or who knows what/who. I think the bombshell Beth has to drop (if there IS one) mat well originate from this scenario that has some of us so intrigued. And maybe I'm totally wrong, too.

At the Alpha male extreme, there is no sharing. I suggest that Jurine is not an alpha male but a sociopath. In which case, he still is not a sharer.

Of course, I could be wrong, but I suspect he did the dirty deed and sharing was not one of his characteristics.

Narcissists don't share...not in their nature. Sharing ruins the "me" thing.
