There were conflicting reports on whether Papa's interview yesterday with Joran was recorded (bugged). Some Auraban official, maybe a lawyer, said certainly not! Then this am, another Aruban lawyer thought it would have been recorded. Seems elementary, if you let Papa go because the new judge from Curacao didn't have enough proof of involvement or obstructing the investigation, you don't give him a chance to obstruct some more. Plus, he and his wife invited one of J's pals over to find out what he knew about J'a recent activities, and maybe to hint strongly that it would be better to back J up. Every person on that island is well aware of how small it is, and if they put a foot wrong, they could suffer the consequences and be targeted for revenge...small businesses go kaput, maybe get licenses revoked, etc. I think Mark Fuhrman mentioned the likelihood of this. Also, last night the EQUUSearch leader said they'd be looking in waters out from shore today, not close in... wouldn't say where, but seemed to think they had a lead.
BTW, Jossy Mansur isn't exactly a light weight on Aruba. But even big Jossy is sounding like the case is cold.
We're missing something. And it's right under our noses..darn.
Well, sadly, I think they're staring to look in the right place. (Though, without specific leads, I doubt they'll find her.)
