Definately more than a coincidence! I have been doing some extensive research,(Investigating via internet) and this is my theory, The 5 subjects are obviously linked in the Holloway case, The bar "Carlos and Charli's' are linked in both the Bradley case in 1998, and the Holloway case now. Research proved that it is probable that their is an organized Sex slave network, which consists of "Luring or recruiting agents, Kidnappers, Brokers who buy girls, transit and shipping agents, which all play a part in human sex slave trafficking that is very popular in Venezuela, Brazil, Columbia, Trinidad, and many other places in close proximity of Aruba. After surfing - carribean sex slave trade, The evidence supporting my theory became very real.
I think that our new ultra PC culture has further given naive Americans a distinct disadvantage with regard to their safety when travelling abroad. And there are enough predators who are looking to take advantage of our ability to disregard our personal safety. I also think that the "brokers" and kidnappers are working for those who are looking for a group of victims of a certain age and type....e.g. between 16 and 25....blonde.....American.
Sadly, tourists areas would rather chance a few "incidents" at their resorts, than give travellers warnings against this type of crime. After all, they wouldn't want to scare away the lucrative tourist industry.
