Per Fox News...
yeah...
I wonder if the Aruban government will allow US investigators in? probably not.
five days + 100 adolescents + seven chaperones + island paradise? = recipe for disaster. It's folly to think that we are so "enlightened" now that the old rules can be discarded with such abandon. The old rules were intended to preserve one's self-respect and, above all, one's safety. The old-timers were smart. As Bill Cosby would say, teenagers are brain-damaged, and they need a lot of supervision.
hell 2 teens with 7 chaperones is a recipe for disaster.
You just don't let people go into this type of situation when they are short of life experience AS WE ALL WHERE right after high school....
Interesting blurb from Michelle Malkin:

"I wonder if the Aruban government will allow US investigators in? probably not."
They asked for them right off the bat, IIRC.
I truly pray it was an accident and these boys panicked.
The wife/girl friend of one of the two black security guards spoke on tv yesterda -- heavy accent combined with hysteria and floods of tears and rage. You couldn't understand one word in ten, but what you heard added up to her contention that this was business as usual in Aruba. When a crime goes down, the white power structure looks for somebody black to blame. She knew her husband was innocent. Let's hope the govt. pays these two guys a hefty sum for smearing them worldwide all week long. They'd just lost their jobs, too.
It sounds to me they do have confession and they know she is dead. But the body search has not happened yet or they have not loacted the Natalee body yet. It sounds like the bio-father is getting more information than what the bio-mother and step-father are getting.
"They asked for them right off the bat, IIRC"
To their credit.
Thanks for the heads up. I put Fox on and they explained the info was held back because her real dad wanted to see the scene before the media found it.
Rumor has it that it's not one of the guards, either.
She was about to leave home for college. She was not a child. She was likely to be going into an unchaperoned situation with coed dorms. Young people have to be able to fend for themselves by that time. Unfortunately, she doesn't appear to have been able to do so.
good....that is the best that can now come from this situation is a convict and swiftly carried out justice....
The father probably had a little meeting with the boys.
if only no really meant no all the time but sadly lots of girls play lots of games...poor kid made one mistake and it cost her dearly...hang them high
located Natalee body yet (fixing typo)
It's not that different now than it was. This incident while tragic is very isolated.
Everyone who says they wouldn’t let their child go to a place like this is kidding themselves if they think they will be in a safer environment in most any college town. The crime statistics for Tuscaloosa, AL (where Natalee would have been in a few weeks) are FAR greater than Aruba.
Bio-Mother says she has not been told there is a recovery effort underway.
Body underwater? Special search teams required and need to be scheduled so recovery effort not yet underway?
It's ok - most of America doesn't know MSNBC even exists...
