Seems like there are some major problems over there, check out the stories on Mark Dutroux, a known child molester / rapist / kiddy porn dealer and the lax treatment the authorities have given him.
In that case it seems like some of the Dutch government officials are involved and that's what is stalling the case.
Here's a story on it, I think there was a cable special about him as well:
Marc Dutroux: the Child-Killer Who Slipped Through the SystemAlthough Marc Dutroux was Belgian, simular things are happening in Holland. About two years ago, a German boy was missing. German police suspected he was kinapped and put to work in an illegal gayclub in Rotterdam. The German police passed this information on to the Dutch authorities, but no action was ever undertaken, until the German governement got involved. Under pressure, the Rotterdam police checked the gayclub and didn't found the boy there. End of story for the Dutch police. A German TV news crew started to investigate for their own (they found out that the boy was sighted there) and came behind the shocking thruth. The Rotterdam police wrote announcements in advance of their inspections to these illegal gayclubs! Of course you'll find nothing if you warn them about three months ahead! The police KNOW there are underaged boys forced into prostitution and they even know who runs these places and the adresses, but they don't want to do anything about it ("they pay taxes, don't they")! Can you believe it! The German investigation was also aired on Dutch TV by a crime reporter, but this didn't impress anyone in Holland.
Oh, another thing about Holland. Until about the Dutroux affair, the possesion of child porn (images and video) was NOT forbidden by law! Only the trade and recording was a criminal act! These laws were changed because of public pressure, but if you get caught the scentence is very mild (as in "some hours" of community work). Also recently a Dutch police officer was fired for using the policestation's mainframe computer to maintain his own private collection of child porn. After colleges found out he was fired.
Recently a man was arrested after the disaperance of a 7 or 8 year old girl. He was the main suspect, for he was convicted for child abuse earlier. After a "rehabilitation" program, he was let loose into society. He told the police he kidnapped the girl and raped her brutaly for two days. The little girl was found death at the man's house, she was hanged to death after the man got enough of savaging her.
This is the true face of justice in Holland! Justice for all? Don't make me laugh for I am already crying about these horrible crimes nobody really cares about over here in Holland!
