It's a terrible thing for this family....I'm guessing they will never know the facts about their missing daughter.
To: Sub-Driver
This just may be enough to finally find out what happened to her. For her family's sake, I hope so.

I recall they found duct tape on a tree early on in the investigation. Maybe this is a break in the case.

If the hairs were ripped out of her head, the bulbs at the bottom will supply the DNA for an exact match with Holloway. If they are just loose hair, the best that can be said is "the hair is consistent with the hair of the subject."
Seems like the body was wrapped in duct tape, perhaps with weights, and dumped off the far side of the island. That suggests that more than one person was involved in "preparing" and dumping the body.

If this hair turns out to belong to Natalee, it doesn't appear her death was "accidental" or some kind of drug overdose. Someone took the time to prepare her body before dumping it into the sea. I pray her poor family has some answers very soon.....AND that Fox News will move on to a different story. They've been obsessed!

Just curious, how does your speculation as quoted above suggest that more than one person was involved in "preparing" and dumping the body? It would seem that one person could have done as much without help.

I believe I also heard that there was duct tape in the trunk of the Joran Van der Sloot. Maybe this is the break they have been waiting for.

The taping and dumping could have been done by one person. Witness Scott Peterson. However, the latest story is that the brothers left Van Sloot there on foot, alone with Hollowell. I emphasis, he was on foot, not carrying rolls of duct tape, and on the wrong side of the island.
If her body was dumped on the far side of the island, somebody had to come up with a car and duct tape, to make that happen. That suggests but does not prove help from others. Remember, Scott Peterson planned it all out, including transportation and dispensing with the body. van Sloot, on the other hand, found himself on foot, half smashed, with a body to dispense with all of a sudden.
The hair stuff in my post is based on science. The help stuff is speculation, based on circumstances.

"was involved in "preparing"
The duct tape will be the best clue is the hair is indeed from the victim.
Unless the actor(s) wore gloves when using the tape, there will be finger prints on the adhesive side. Exposure to sand, salt and water shouldn't hender finding any prints and may even preserve them.

I doubt VDS could have rounded up duct tape and what ever else he needed to weight body etc without some help from someone. Sounds like the dad MUST have been involved as all of this needed some planning/help etc to dump a body into the sea. I hope this will help solve this soon so her family can know something. Her mom is looking more frail every time they show her on TV. How could you leave knowing your daughter hasn't been found. Just awful!
