I have only been following the Natalee case from afar...unlike those on this FR thread. I have one nagging problem with this case. Why have we heard so much about the VanDerSloot family....and barely anything about the Kalpoe family. I found that the Kalpoe brothers mother's name is Nadira Ramierz/Kalpoe...but I have yet to find any info. on their father....even his name. Mostly he is referenced as a "prominent" Arubian businessman. There is a reference to the Kalpoe families business connections with regard to the Texas search team trying to procure some excavation equip., and being thwarted by the Kalpoe connections. I just have a feeling that with the Kalpoe family having more to lose with having 2 sons convicted they have placed the blame on Joran and his family and are getting themselves out of this situation with barely a scratch. Why these two were ever released is beyond me. For those here on this thread...I am just curious if this avenue has already been divulged.

Link to Deepak Kalpoe's web site...seems that even after being a suspect in a murder....he has time to check in on his site

The following excerpts are from the WorldJOURNIER web site. It seems that this site contains a listing of all the those involved...and a by date break-down of events. I have posted some of the paragraphs from this site that contained info. that I had never heard. For those who have been on this FR thread...just wondering if much of this is common knowledge...proven...or disproven.

On 6-30 JANSSEN stated to "CNN" that “some days after” NATALEE went missing Current Suspect P. SLOOT told the 3 boys that without a body police would have no case. http://edition.cnn.com/2005/LAW/06/30/aruba.missing/index.html , but also on 6-30 JANSSEN told "MSNBC", "They spoke about the situation that when there is no body you don’t have a case, and that was already in the first day after the disappearance." http://www.allheadlinenews.com/cgi-bin/news/newsbrief.plx?id=2240305518&fa=1

After 7-4 hearing Current Suspect D. KALPOE and Current Suspect S. KALPOE were released. (allowed to go anywhere, including leave ARUBA)

While snorkeling on 7-6 about a “half-mile from the Marriott off Arashi beach,“ FORNARO discovered one bone in the ocean that she found “between 2 large rocks.” FORNARO describes the bone as being 3.5” to 5.0” long, larger at one end that was rounded “like a bone joint,” gray in color, and still had a “whitish tissue that was still meaty and flesh-like that was still attached to the bone.” When asked if she thought it was a human bone, FORNARO said, yes, she thought it was a human’s bone because the bone had not been cooked nor barbecued like an animal bone might have been if eaten as food. FORNARO wrapped the bone in paper, but even wrapped in paper she described its smell as so pungently bad and so strong that she had to put the wrapped bone in the trunk of her car while she and her mother transported the bone to the ARUBA police station in Noord. When she gave the bone to someone behind the “reception desk” at the ARUBA police Noord station, the person who accepted the bone told her that the police detectives will be contacting her. On 7-13 while lunching somewhere, FORNARO noticed a “Texas EquuSearch” team member also lunching. FORNARO told the “Texas EquuSearch” team member about her finding the bone near the “Marriott Hotel,” she described the bone, and FORNARO said she had taken the bone to the ARUBAN police station in Noord and turned it over to the police. The “Texas EquuSearch” team member asked FORNARO to show him exactly where she found the bone, and FORNARO did so. While at the discovery location they also found a pair of thong underwear and a yellow-colored hair “scrunchie.“ The same day the “Texas EquuSearch” team member asked FORNARO if the police had contacted her. When FORNARO said the police have not contacted her, the “Texas EquuSearch” team member asked if she would mind going to the ARUBAN police station at Noord and checking on the bone. FORNARO agreed. When she went into the police station and asked to speak with a detective about the bone she turned in, the woman police officer asked FORNARO (paraphrasing), “Oh, you mean the two bones?” As of 7-17 FORNARO has still not been contacted by the ARUBAN police detectives.

(a Miami paper reported that “Texas EquuSearch” had located 3 ARUBAN construction companies with the equipment they needed, but, all 3 ARUBAN companies refused to help. One of them was related to the Current Suspects KALPOE’s, and he told the other two companies not to cooperate with “Texas EquuSearch” team)

Reportedly, by 7-4 his mommy NADIRA had airline tickets already purchased to take the KALPOE brothers back to Suriname ((the judge did not confiscate the brothers passports)) Judge also ruled

The topics of "no body, no crime", the bone discovery, and the tickets to take the KALPOE brothers back to Suriname have been discussed at various times, but the miami paper report about no help with the equipment might be new. I believe this is the first I have heard it.

I agree. No one should have been released, including the father.

Now that you brought up about the bone found.

Did anyone ever hear the outcome of it.

Or is it still sitting at the police station.

Thanks for that WorldJournier site info. Good reference site.
