Brigette, you cease to amaze me with your intell/insight. NSNR
Damn right!!!!! NSNR
Agreed, but I have to entertain the notion that "the van der Sweat" was a result of "concern for his Son."
-Even though he LOOKS like an egg suckin' dog.(to me)
On O'Reilly last night, Greta said the cell phone & text message records were what is needed to help break this case. Knowing the locations of where JVDS was when he called the Kalpoes is key and knowing what he text messaged them is extremely important too.
After the spokesperson from the prosecutions office told Greta that the family may ask and be granted some communication from the prosecutions office, it sounded like that will be what Beth tries to do today. Beth was on Fox & Friends this morning and is SOOOO frustrated that she doesn't have a clue about where the authorities are in the investigation. I'm wondering if Beth has asked the FBI about those cell records? Let's hope that today is the day Natalee will be found.
Please keep us posted & our prayers are with all of you.
I saw the interview too when he was sweating so profusely. There was a particular rivulet that ran from the hairline all the way down to the eye, while the camera was doing a close-up of him. I was fascinated to watch it slowly flow, it seemed to be as wide as my little finger.

Circumstantial evidence has a way of accumulating. Joran admits being the last one to see Natalee before her disappearance. He has been caught in numerous lies and is evidently not answering all the investigator's questions.
PVDS's behavior towards Beth & Jug is most incriminating, IMO. When PVDS repeatedly kept telling Joran to shut up and not say anything and told the Twitty's, "You're not in America", when they were asking them questions, reeks of a cover-up. Rather than being helpful, his behavior wasn't normal. In fact, he was down right hostile and arrogant (Joran too).
Then, his demeanor completely changed when Beth & Greta went to the VDS house. PVDS could hardly communicate except for his profuse sweating. Beth picked up on his strange behavior and evidently has even more suspicions & information she is not sharing with the public.
Sounds like circumstantial evidence won't win a conviction in Aruba like it can in the U.S., but my gut is screaming the VDSs are guilty as hell. It makes getting those cell & text message records and finding Natalee's body imperative.
I don't believe that young Joran will be attending college in the U.S. any longer. I'm sure this family will hightail it back to Holland if they get away with this. Joran will have to find a Euro-party-school instead.
Dry mouth, constantly swallowing, hand wringing, irregular breathing pattern, sighs, shifting eyes, and clasping hands together to maintain an appearance of conformity. Remember the glasses of ice water? PVDS needed his water for his guilt thirst. Kevl, I just wanted to add a few more indicators of a (lying perp). NSNR
Hey Quilla, just ask Al Gore he is the expert. Metabolism speeds up when dicussing information one feels thoroughly uncomfortable with knowing they might get caught lying(guilt)sweating profusely. Normal? PVSD would have been inclimated to the Island tropics along time ago. Why would he be sweating so much if not lying? He is, was and will continue to lie. How are things in Dothan? NSNR
{They also showed a driver in the water - I just did not take a picture of it.}
The driver in the water...? Was it Teddy?
He will fit right in with the Euro-trash. Damn! "It's an American thing, They sure as hell will never understand." NSNR
I think that it is fair to say that PVDS was in a stressful situation regardless. And it is possible that he has an underlying anxiety disorder. In any case, there are other possible explanations other than ''He was lying.''
Anxiety symptoms: For no apparent reason you break into hot or cold sweats. You may also experience hot flashes or excessive sweating for no reason. These sweating periods are more frequent and uncontrollable when under stress or in stressful or important situations such as family gatherings, business meetings, or social situations.
Soon, it will be.
Per my post # 3321, I'm in complete agreement there.
Rather than being helpful, his behavior wasn't normal.
You're probably correct. If eleven horn-honking, perturbed people showed up outside my house at 3 a.m. & demanded to speak to my 17 YO son, they'd have been greeted with Ole' Bess.
Aruba is situated 12 degrees 30' north of the equator. The climate is tropical but not extreme, with a median and practically constant temperature of 82 degrees Fahrenheit (28 degrees Celsius).
You're right, he should be used to the tropical climate that in no way resembles the expected 90 degree, humid as all get out day we're having in Dothan.
Thanks for that report maggiefluffs.
Uh, ok!!
