To be honest with you, what I heard last night from Jug sheds a whole new light on what transpired the night that they went to the VDS home.
I do not think that was handled properly.
Another mistake by the Aruban LE.. Why did they take or allow this group of people to go to the VDS home? Why did'nt the Aruban LE handle this matter in a professional LE manner?
I am not taking up for the VDS, so don't get me wrong, but I would be somewhat disturbed if a group of people with LE showed up outside my home hollering for me to come out at 3 a.m.
Jug also was demanding that their 17 year old son come out of the house. This conjures up images of old Western movies where all the towns people carrying torches in the middle of the night show up at the jail demanding the prisoner be released so they could hang them on a wild oak tree. Do people really thing that Aruba is unaware of the violence in the US and how we can allow a 9 year old girl to be buried alive 150 yards from her home by a convicted sexual criminal who was allowed to roam the streets? Double standards my friends, double standards.
Agree with your post about possible reaction if someone or a gang showed up at my home at 3 am, banging on the gate, demanding to get in. But a girl was missing. It's not just, 'oh, your son was in a bar fight, he knocked my kid's front tooth out' sort of thing. A girl was missing. That would have had me pulling on street clothes and joining in to help any way I could. J's father did go look for him, etc., but it would have been smart of the v.d.S's to help search the island, whether they believed J was involved or not.
