Joran van der Sloot Charged with Murder of Stephany Flores (And he's off to a Peruvian prison...)
CBS ^ | 6/11/10 | CBS/AP

Posted on 06/11/2010 9:27:32 AM PDT by jimbo123

Joran van der Sloot has been charged with murder in the slaying of 21-year-old Stephany Flores.

Peruvian judge Juan Buendia has ordered van der Sloot jailed on murder and robbery charges, and described van der Sloot as having acted with "ferocity and great cruelty."

Police say van der Sloot smashed in the face of Lima business student Stephany Flores, whom he met playing poker at a casino, after taking her to his hotel room on May 30. They say he then strangled her, threw her to the floor and emptied her wallet.

Buendia issued the order before dawn Friday, instructing penal authorities to place the Dutchman in a penitentiary pending trial.

I’m not an expert in Dutch or Peruvian law but was wondering if this scenario is possible:

He confesses to the Natalee Halloway murder and proves it by giving up the location of the body which is found.
Can he then be extradited back to Aruba to be tried and serve sentence for the first murder he committed before having to return to Peru to serve sentence on the last murder committed?

The answer may shed light on his tactics...

Someone said this girls father can hire someone inside the prison to kill Van der Sloot for very little money.

I think that is his strategy. More likely his lawyers.

“Si, buenos noches, Senor van der Sloot! Que guapo!”

Man, I wouldn’t want to be in his shoes.

Not just the girl's father but ANYBODY.

They said $50.

Van der Sloot will probably hire professional protection though. So there you are!

I bet a lot of people would do him for free.

It’s a shame his father isn’t around to give away the bride.

He will probably be transferred back to Aruba to stand trial for the murder of Natalie Holloway and the authorities there will conveniently turn their heads long enough for him to slip away and into obscurity. Then his mommy will keep him hidden and support him till she dies.

Barbara: [whistles] Nice butt. That’s what they’ll say.
Ken Kessler: I beg your pardon?
Barbara: Nice butt. That’s what they’ll say on your first day, in the men’s club.
Ken Kessler: The men’s club?
Barbara: Mmm. The San Quentin Country Club. With a cute little rear end like that, you’ll be the belle of the ball. Your dance card’ll be filled every day. You’ll be so popular, making all kinds of new, close friends. Big, ugly, hairy friends! Not that you’ll ever see what they look like, ‘cause you’ll be facing the other way.
Ken Kessler: You’re very good at this. You should write children’s books.

I haven’t heard it mentioned in the news cirsuit so was thinking I just didn’t know their laws well enough. Heads will explode if he pulls it off!

He said he will reveal the location of Natalie’s body if he is brought back to Aruba.

I just don’t see Peru giving him this opportunity.

Better idea:

Wait until he’s been in a Peru prison for one year.
Then tell him if he gives evidence resulting in the recovery of Natalee’s remains, he can have a pack of smokes.

You can’t give a sociopath leverage!

Peru will hold onto him. He may not face trial in Aruba until after he is sentenced in Peru. It ain’t like the old USA. Penetentiary on a pre-trial basis ought to take the starch out of this puke.

Peruvian prisons are not nice. Anyone remember that lefty woman about ten years ago who got convicted in Peru? They put her in a prison on a mountaintop...without glass in the windows. Newsweek and Time made much of the horrible conditions a non-Peruvian was suffering under, because she froze her rear off, and had little access to blankets, etc. I am sure they are cooking up something nice for Van der Puke, too.

Aruba was very lenient with him before. I think his parents were bigwigs in Aruba.

That may be his hope. But Peru would have to extradite him first. And I don't see them doing that after he murdered the daughter of a former presidential candidate.

Either that or he will get the first “life without parole” sentence in Aruba enabling him to have a private jail condo with all amenities avoiding the Peruvian hell.

Considering what we know of Peruvian prisons, that may be the most merciful thing the father can do. Better to let him live...and suffer.

I certainly hope Peru holds on to him.
