No new evidence=status quo.

Good point, Rip.

I think you are correct, her purse was not with her..just an ID of sorts. We need to explore that more.

Has it ever been definately decided that she didn't return to the hotel?

[demsux]

I still wonder about that hotel renovation next to the HI.

Like, was any concrete poured that night...late?

[Howlin]

Scooped who?

[Canadian Outrage]

Honestly a demonstration at the Dutch Embassy sounds like a GREAT idea!! Somehow, someway, they MUST get the message that this is NOT going away.

[spectre]

ALL of US! LOL.

[GarySpFc]

Yeah if it happened at C&C's there would be more witnesses.

The question is did it happen. We do know there are witnesses (plural). Remember, Natalee pushed Joran away the final time, and if they were standing close that may have been his reflex to hit a low blow which only a few would have seen.

[spectre]

Most definitely. There wasn't evidence of her entering the hotel or the Casino area on any video camera.

Weren't there early reports involving an EMT?

[pnz1]

I'm still confused about the statement one of the MB students made that said something like "I am just going to leave it at we saw her there". I thought she was referring to the HI or the HI area?

[monkeywrench]

I can't recollect any mention of an EMT.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Weren't there early reports involving an EMT?

When they were first bringing in Croes for questioning, some identified him as an EMT because someone of that name had purchased an EMT book from Amazon. Turned out that Croes was actually a DJ on a boat.

[cherry]

but the "plain" ones....who cares?........really....

[spectre]

pnz..It's been pretty much established that she didn't show up at the hotel. I'm certain of that.

Rip, I'd feel more comfortable going down the road of the asthma attack if Beth would only confirm that Nat had an inhaler with her on the trip.

[Rippersnapper]

Didn't we find that there was another Steve Croes?

[cajungirl]

I posted the old pics, charming I thought. Didn't go see the ghost site. Am at work and our coffee pot here is sulking.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Yep. At least one other.

[presently no screen name]

Thanks for that. I'm at work and news deprived.

[dc-zoo]

Yes it is possible that noone saw Joran punch her but at some point that evening Joran likely caused Natalee's death since he already admitted "we buried her". I think that confession is why he's still in jail.
