PVDS couldn't remember if he had gone to work on May 30th, the day Natalee disappeared, which was rather strange. That day should have stood out in his mind or you'd think it would have.

[the Deejay]

Spokesman says they never have sharks and in 50 odd years have never had a shark attack or seen any.

Yeah, right.

Just like the low crime rate.

Which we now know differently in these past weeks.

Then why do they have a big jail & prison?

I know all around Caracas, (I lived there), sharks infest the waters.

Who thinks sharks say, "We can't go near Aruban waters, it's a major tourist area."

[stlnative]

yeah that's it *228

[Howlin]

But he's charged with "premeditated murder," too.

[Howlin]

yeah that's it *228

So, we're all "in?" :-)

[spectre]

He couldn't RECALL going to work or he DIDN'T go to work? Did someone slip him a Roofer?

Strange..

[stlnative]

Can you hear me now?

[the Deejay]

I didn't hear the dad say much
of anything to Greta. I'd like
to see a repeat of that 'view or
a transcript.

[Peach]

LOL. I thought PETA said sharks were smart.

We have been to Curacao which is one of the ABC islands next to Aruba and while beautiful, there were definite neighborhoods where one didn't venture at night because of the crime.

And, they had nets up at the inlet where we swam. No reason to do that but to keep the sharks out.

[Pepper777]

It looks like Dash (Natalee's friend), and another friend, will be on Fox next. I can't remember her real name. I think it starts with an A - Arlan, maybe.

[Howlin]

Yep. Is it Option 2? LOL......I never can remember!

[the Deejay]

No reason to do that but to keep the sharks out.

Exactly.

[Peach]

Friends up on FNC

[stlnative]

Why is BOR showing this again?

[maggief]

Dash repeat.

RWV:

Update 8:15 PM

The full throttle search is anticipated to begin tomorrow. They are starting with three grids, one over water and two over land. They will cover those grids before moving on to additional grids based upon evidence or indicators that suggest one spot being more likely to be productive, than another.

Boats are expected to run 24/7 with two boats on the water at all times. In the event of a sonar hit, divers will be dispatched into the area.

There is a great deal of conflicting talk coming from the island. Some is consistent with much of what is in the news, other speculation is very different. Honestly, I can't ascertain the motivations, and in some cases the root source for some of what is being said.

Unfortunately, what I also cannot do is conclude that anyone has extablished beyond a reasonable doubt what really happened that night, or has even established a solid theory. As always in this case, that doesn't mean authorities don't have one; but if they do, they seem to be keeping a pretty good lid on that, as Dutch law requires.

It's quite possible that their necessary silence is leaving room for any number of theories and speculations that will prove unfounded.

Some individuals on the ground are still feeling very positive as regards the current cooperation of the Aruban authorities.

[pamlet]

It was so strange the way he said it... he said that all the charges COULD mean that he he'd advised his son ...

I thought it was strange - it was yet ANOTHER spin on the whole "charge"

[Howlin]

Actually, I thought he might have gotten caught off guard there for a few minutes and said something he wasn't suppose to say.

[Peach]

I thought sonar picked up movement but maybe I'm thinking of another piece of equipment.

Can they actually see into the water with sonar?

[jacquej]

excessive alcohol can do that to you, or so I am told... ya can't remember nuttin, nohow...

[sarasota]

Complicity (according to Napolitano) is someone who helped the perp cover his tracks.
