BENAZIR BHUTTO - BEAUTY AND BRAINS

Lets make no mistake. Ms. Bhutto was in fact a victim of crime. Cold blooded killers. Al Qaeda and their sympathizers. Lured back to be killed. But she already knew that. And so did we. I could see this day as clear as a bell after the last attempt on her life just about a month ago.

Pakistan needs to get it's act together and pronto.

As a haven for all things evil, Pakistan harbors the most wanted men in the world. The same men wanted now for the murder of Ms. Bhutto. We remember that Sheik Mohammad was captured in Pakistan and I have very little doubt that the rest of the clan is in hiding somewhere in the immediate region.

And what can really be said in a complementary fashion about General Pervez Musharraf? Pro Western. But what does that really mean? He likes French wine? Italian sports cars? American movies? That man needs to put his money where his mouth is. As a man who took over in a bloodless coup, he leaves very little to admire.

As a hardcore conservative, I watch as George Bush fiddles and he's no ally of all things RIGHT. Yes, it's true. So very very true.

If George Bush was even one tenth of what he proposes he would have removed this haven for all things evil. But he kicks the can to the next President. The exact thing he said he would NOT do. I wasn't sure I believed it at the time. I so wanted to believe, but my heart told me otherwise. Let's get real, he's no Reagan.

As time unfolds and we see the true dynamics revealed, we are left wondering if Pakistan is Saudi- Lite. I have no doubt. Saudi Arabia continues the strangle hold on the Monarchy and Pakistan revels in the DIRTY WORK. Well, at least women can now drive in Saudi Arabia. Maybe in the next century they will actually be able to see a doctor.

Pakistan polishes the nuclear tips and threatens the rest of the region and everything becomes even less stable. Bullies to the right and bullies to the left. Such the conundrum. And no one with a set of balls to end this two decade long nightmare.

A base of terror right there and identified and no one does anything about it. Revolting!

The people of Pakistan deserve to the same opportunities as the rest of us. A chance to have a good life. What's so hard to understand about that? The 160 million people of Pakistan want the same things as every other person on this planet. They want their children to go to a good school, to have a good meal and not be hungry, to sleep the sleep of angels, to have a chance to live to see the next day, to have the chance to see their dreams come true. A parent will do without so a child may have. It's all part of being human.

As we mourn the MURDER of Ms. Bhutto, we remember she was a true representation of all the things we wish for our children and ourselves. A person who rose to the highest office in Pakistan and made a difference for the people she served.

Democracy has many foes and many advocates. Those that oppose freedom for people are on notice that their days are indeed numbered and the era of dictators is OVER. Let's all remember that even America is not a Democracy. It is a Representative Republic. And a step beyond democracy.

Good Bye Gentle Soul. You will be so missed.

SHE WORKED HARD

FORMER HOLLOWAY SUSPECT REGRETS THERE WAS NO TRIAL
Sunday, December 23, 2007

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands — A former suspect in the disappearance in Aruba of American teenager Natalee Holloway told a Dutch newspaper he regretted that he was not formally prosecuted for any crime.

Dutch teen Joran van der Sloot, 20, was re-arrested in Aruba in November for a new interrogation about Holloway's disappearance in 2005. But public prosecutors on the island closed their investigation Dec. 18, saying they believed Holloway was dead but they did not have enough evidence to prosecute van der Sloot or two other former suspects.

"I would have liked to have seen a trial so that everything could be out in the open," van der Sloot told newspaper DAG in his first public remarks since being released on Dec. 7. The newspaper published excerpts from the interview Sunday. DAG spokesman Bob Witman said the interview was conducted via e-mail with van der Sloot in Aruba, where he is currently staying.

All three suspects denied any involvement in Holloway's disappearance.

Van der Sloot denied there was any new evidence to prompt his arrest again last month, as prosecutors had asserted.

"There was no new evidence at all," he told the paper. "Dutch detectives tried to get me to talk for 15 days. They told me that Natalee was dead."

Prosecutors say their new evidence was a statement by one of the suspects during a tapped Internet chat in which he said Holloway was dead. But defense lawyers denied that.

Van der Sloot said he believed his latest arrest was intended to please American media.

"I've been declared guilty without any factual evidence and I'm left to prove my innocence," he told the paper.

Prosecutors said as things stand, the case can be reactivated if "serious" new evidence emerges. Reactivating the case would be impossible however if they were to prosecute and fail, due to rules against double jeopardy.

Holloway was on a high school graduation trip to the island when she vanished May 30, 2005, hours before she was to return home to Mountain Brook, Ala. Extensive searches of the island turned up no trace of her.

The three former suspects, who are the last people known to have seen her, initially said they dropped Holloway off at her hotel.

After hotel security cameras disproved that, they were arrested and van der Sloot said he left her alone on a beach and had no idea how she disappeared.

JESSIE FOSTER MISSING SINCE MAY 28TH 2006 WITH HER MOM GLENDENE GRANT

JESSIE REMAINS A MYSTERY
Sun, December 23, 2007
By DANIEL MACISAAC, SUN MEDIA

Members of Jessie Foster's family say they're frustrated a woman who may have information on her disappearance seems to have slipped through the fingers of Canadian authorities.

Foster's mother Glendene Grant has been trying to speak to American Yvonne Hubrechtsen since her 23-year-old daughter went missing after being lured from Alberta to Las Vegas in May 2005, a suspected victim of a prostitution ring.

"This has haunted me," Grant said from her Kamloops, B.C., home. "Because when she first went down to Las Vegas in May 2005 I asked her, 'If anything happens to you or if you go missing, who can I call?' "

Grant says Foster, who lived in Calgary, gave her the number for Yvonne "Angel" Hubrechtsen - but that Grant never needed to use it until all communication with her daughter broke off in March the following year.

When Grant eventually tried the number, the woman who answered refused to co-operate - and she's never been able to talk to her.

So, Grant says it was both shocking and distressing to learn from media reports this week that Hubrechtsen had been in Vancouver until authorities arrested and deported her back to the States on Wednesday.

Vancouver police took Hubrechtsen into custody on a Canada Border Services warrant for having illegally entered the country by not revealing her criminal record.

Grant is convinced that Hubrechtsen, just 22-years-old herself, was part of the group of acquaintances that lured Jessie to Vegas with promises of a lavish lifestyle, and turned her into a sex slave.

Grant has received support from groups like the U.S.-based Anti-Trafficking League Against Slavery - and says she can only hope Foster is being held somewhere against her will and is, at least, still alive.

But she also complains of a lack of co-operation from Las Vegas police in solving Foster's disappearance - or in cracking down on the sex trade industry.

"It's just the girls who get arrested, who may or may not be doing it by choice," she said.

"They're not busting the pimps or the escort services - just the little girls."

Edmontonian Crystal Foster, 24, says she's taking her younger sister's disappearance particularly hard because it was two years ago on Christmas Day that she saw Foster for the last time - at the airport heading back to Vegas and the fate that awaited her there.

"I looked back over my shoulder and she was looking at me with an expression that didn't make sense to me at the time," Crystal recalled.

"I thought maybe she was thinking 'I'm gonna miss you guys,' but later I realized it was something deeper like a silent scream: 'Don't let me go!' "

NOTE FROM GLENDENE GRANT -

REWARD FOR MISSING WOMAN RAISED
Jessie Foster's father adds $40,000 to the initial offer
By CARY CASTAGNA, SUN MEDIA
Sun, December 23, 2007

JESSIE AND HER DAD DWIGHT

It’s not nearly as heartwarming as having her missing daughter home for the holidays, but Glendene Grant calls it a “wonderful Christmas present.”

The reward for information leading to Jessie Foster’s whereabouts has been raised from $10,000 to $50,000, Grant told Sun Media Sunday.

The extra $40,000 is being put up by Foster’s father, Dwight Foster, and will be offered through Crime Stoppers.

“This is such a wonderful Christmas present to Jessie from her daddy,” Grant said from her Kamloops, B.C., home, explaining her former common-law husband’s plan to shore up the funds through equity on his Calgary home and other assets.

“It’s quite a jump. If need be, it’ll go up even higher.”

Foster, an Alberta woman missing since March 2006, is believed to be the victim of a human-trafficking ring that landed her in Las Vegas’s seedy underbelly.

Once a straight-A student, Foster travelled twice to the U.S. in the spring of 2005 with a man she met at a reggae party who promised to pay the way.

She wound up meeting another man a short time later and by June was already working as a prostitute in Sin City.

Foster, who has several relatives in Edmonton, returned north of the border later that fall to visit her parents.

But on the morning of Dec. 25, 2005, Foster – then 21 years old – said she needed a ride to the airport because she had to go back to Vegas immediately, Grant recalled.

That Christmas was the last time she saw her daughter.

“This time of year is especially tough,” she added.

Grant, who believes her 23-year-old daughter is still alive, has no doubt that she’ll eventually find her.

The heartbroken mom is hopeful that the $50,000 reward should help loosen someone’s lips.

“I sure hope so. Money talks,” she said. “The more we offer, the more likely someone’s going to come forward.

“It’s really hard. I don’t know what to think anymore. I don’t know where else to turn.”

Dwight Foster couldn’t be reached for comment Sunday on the beefed-up reward.

Meanwhile, as Sun Media reported Sunday, Grant is trying to contact Yvonne Hubrechtsen, a friend of Foster’s who was in Vancouver prior to being arrested and deported back to the U.S. on Wednesday.

Hubrechtsen, 22, was taken into custody on a Canada Border Services warrant for not revealing her criminal record when she entered Canada, according to media reports.

Grant believes Hubrechtsen was part of the group of acquaintances that lured Foster to Vegas with promises of a lavish lifestyle and may have information on her disappearance.

"Please note the family Labouovic and the skipper disappeared from the Bahamas... many miles North of Aruba.... check a map, you will see it close to USA and Aruba way south close to Venezuela.
It is quite likely the boat sank; tragic but it does happen. Maybe a more plausible explanation than yours... but I'm just guessing too."

wyldcelt replies-
I included the family Labouovic only because visitaruba.com, based on Aruba, included them amongst the missing. Now whether this was as a simple courtesy ie general heads-up to all the islands in the Carribean or because the family stated Aruba as one of their destinations (approx. 1100 miles from the southern tip of the Bahamas to Aruba). Site only gives the information that the family stated they were heading south. I do know for a fact Haiti was having very serious problems in 2001 (my sister runs a non-profit for the people of Haiti she hired me to build a website for the coalition of artists), Cuba has always been a problem and the family would have to pass between the two to get to Aruba. Shipwreck is the most likely scenario, I don't know enough about ocean currents to know where debris would end up if anywhere. Visitaruba.com included them so I did also.

The mother was apparently a well-respected artist. I did in fact attempt to find more information on where they planned to travel, much of what I found was in the Slovenian language. Son's friend born in Russia had to translate for me, not exactly the same language but similar enough to get the jist of the articles, no further info on their destination.

Revealed during yesterdays news conference on Aruba, Hans Mos relates that one of the suspects admits in an internet chat session or text message that "it's not good that the Girl is dead". Obviously referring to Natalee Holloway.

Question, why does everyone assume this is in reference to Joran Van Der Sloot or the Kalpoe Brothers? Prosecutor Hans Mos did not reveal who the messenger actually was.

Wasn't it Premeditated Paulus who admitted he was up during those hours? Wasn't he the one that admitted he may have made some phone calls between 2 am and 7 am?

Wasn't he the one who admitted he has two contacts with Natalee Holloway?

Wasn't Paulus Van Der Sloot the one who had his compensation for unlawful arrest denied based on his words?

Wasn't it Paulus Van Der Sloot who was looking up the effects of drugs and alcohol on teenagers?

Wasn't it Paulus Van Der Sloot who was looking up the phone numbers of attorneys on the internet?

Joran Van Der Sloot has no internet activity after he downloads two porn movies and checked the soccer scores. The Kalpoes appear to have signed off also. This is all based on the records available, and it is not know if these are complete records are not.

So who was online 5 hours and 13 minutes after Natalee Holloway was last seen leaving Carlos and Charlie's in downtown Oranjestad?

Looks like it's Paulus Van Der Sloot again!

The last two years and 7 months have been hell for everyone. Natalee's Family and the "Lovers". Hell for everyone, except the "Haters" who are all going to Hell anyway . . . so it's just like being at home.

Aruba, oh the good times. And now the bad times. Nothing is gonna shake this disaster. Nothing! They're DONE. Closed! Morally Bankrupt! And no one wants to take even their worst enemy anywhere near Aruba. Shortly the only way to reach Aruba will be by bottle. Bottle you say?... yes, one of those bottles the shipwrecked throw into the sea to alert someone, anyone that they are alive and need help. Good luck fitting into one of those itty bitty tiny little bottles.

I remember the "good times". When Aruba hid it's dirt under the rug like every other little sand trap in the Caribbean. I once asked an Aruban - "Hey what can I actually go to jail for here"? Being the Hell Raiser that I 'was'... I wanted to know.

I was kinda shocked to find out I could only really be locked up for murder, rape, and drunken driving. Well, Aruba is now down to one offense punishable by a prison sentence. And judging by the way the populace drives, drunken driving seems to be the norm. Anyone with a blood alcohol level under .50 is NOT drunk. They're just getting warmed up... unless you're from America, then if you have one drink - you're bombed and ready for rehab. You're a lush and liable to say you are related to Queen of Holland.

It really is the land of the lawless. How else to explain everything that happened over the last 2 years and seven months? It was what we have all said it was - FIXED from day one.

A little girl and her Family are denied Justice because Aruba says so... PATHETIC!

All to protect all things Sloot.

The Judicial end of the case may be closed, but hunting season just opened.

Dutch Cowards are now in season!

GLENDENE GRANT AND HER ONE OF HER OTHER DAUGHTERS HOLD A PICTURE OF MISSING JESSIE FOSTER

Supporting search for Jessie
By Cassidy Olivier - Kamloops This Week - December 09, 2007

David Miller knows how good it feels when the community shows its support for a worthy cause.

That is why the owner of MD Auto Detailing decided to help out Glendene Grant, one of his longtime friends, by organizing a fundraiser in support of the Jessie Foster trust.

Foster, the 23-year-old daughter of Grant, went missing in March 2006 while living in Las Vegas.

While friends and family haven’t heard from her since, many, including Grant, believe she fell victim to a human-trafficking ring.

Most believe she is still alive.

While Miller has supported Grant’s search for her daughter in the past, by sponsoring car washes and donating gift certificates to draws, he decided to go “all out this time” by organizing a buffet dinner and dance at the Thirsty Dog Sports Club on Wednesday at 6 p.m.

In addition to a full-spread dinner, the night will include entertainment by Art Pruce, an auction, a raffle and a 50/50 draw.

All auction items were donated by locals businesses, something Miller, who has known Foster since she was a kid, said proves just how caring Kamloops can be.

“It is really cool to see how the community has stepped up,” he said.

“It is all about being a good person and helping out.”

Grant, meanwhile, remains optimistic her daughter will eventually be found.

Since her search began last year, Foster’s story has gone international, appearing on the Montel Williams Show and in several domestic and international newspapers.

The family has also managed to raise $10,000 in reward money for information leading to Foster’s recovery.

Foster’s case is currently being investigated by a special U.S. task force familiar with human-trafficking rings.

“I find the longer this goes on, the stronger I get,” said Grant. “I have a lot of hope.”

For more information about Grant’s search for her daughter, visit jessiefoster.ca. To buy tickets for Wednesday’s fundraiser, contact Miller at 554-7068 or 320-2235. Tickets will also be available at the door.

ARUBA THE CHRONIC

***COURTESY OF CARPE NOCTEM***

I know, I know. You're stunned, shocked, and hurt. I heard it too. It was devastating to hear John Q. Kelly last night. The words were indeed unexpected. Or were they?

Let's start with Mr. Kelly.

Mr. Kelly is a Civil Attorney. Not an Investigative Attorney. He's a litigator. And I knew this was going to be a problem on day one. A Civil Attorney tries to indemnify the survivors of a crime - ala - The Brown Family. They do not do the work of a Prosecutor. They move in after a crime has been prosecuted and clean up the scraps. I know the ladies love his smile and think he is just dreamy and charming, but this isn't a popularity contest. This is a battle for Justice. It takes balls made out of Titanium. A skin so thick it could be confused with the Star Wars Defense Initiative.

Mr. Kelly got a lesson in International Law. And in a case this important and high profile, on the job training is not the place to get your education. Had Mr. Kelly been hired after a final verdict and appeals process, that probably would have been fine. Sue the Van Der Sloot's, the Kalpoe's, any others involved and the Corrupt Aruban Government. Make the Holloway's whole. That's Civil Law.

Mr. Kelly did not like the fact that he was shunned. So What! The Natalee Holloway case has not been officially closed and no Prosecutor will divulge all he knows before that date. It's a fact. I know most will not like it, but that's the way it is, and will always be. Everyone wants to see that dossier and we all will at some point. That day is probably not that far off.

Opinions are all over the board on Mr. Kelly. Only he knows what went down in that meeting, but he was quick to share for the first time since he was hired so many months ago. Pressure is always an Attorney's best friend. Mr. Kelly applied no pressure throughout the case, or had no clout with anyone who could.

Most in the Aruban Prosecutor's office have been jerking everyone around since day one and nothing has changed. How long did it take everyone to recognize that? Not long at all. Those that were not playing the Aruban Legal Hoopdee Dupedee quit or just left. It looked like some on Aruba actually owned a mirror or two.

A Gentlemen only has so much clout when dealing with savages. It's the Law of the Jungle.

Prosecutor Hans Mos - The jury is still out on him, but it's hit the eleventh hour of deliberations. The Jury will speak momentarily. Beast of Burden or Straight Shooter? New Evidence or misunderstandings? The Aruban version of Dutch Law always has a built in legal loop hole for those who commit crimes. A taste of legal jargon to allow the privileged to scurry. If that doesn't work, just make up a new batch of laws to fit the circumstances.

Sure, he made all kinds of statements. He got everyone's hopes up. His words made us all feel as if it was a new day. The hopes of Natalee's Family, the hopes of the people who have been there to support those Family members since day one, and of course Natalee's friends, who miss her so much. Rise so high but so far to fall.

Mr. Mos has quite the chore. Take apart all that is crooked and wrong with Aruba, or dance around and do the Hokie Pokie. Mr. Mos' job here is to identify the evidence and prosecute those responsible. It's really that simple. We all know about the majority of the corruption occurring daily on Aruba and I'm sure there are still a few more snakes slithering around that desert hell hole. But for the most part, we all know. It's not a secret anymore. In fact, they're not very good at covering up their corruption and most of it flaunts it's ugly head right out in the blazing Aruban sun. The corruption is a separate issue from Natalee's case. What we consider corruption, they consider business as usual. And why should we be meddling in their business?

I'll tell ya why.

One of our fellow citizens is still missing and presumed murdered. It matters to us. Those of us who cherish Justice and those who actually care about their fellow man and woman. We care and it DOES matter.

Natalee Holloway was not a piece of trash for you to arbitrarily discard. I think the Aruban's are finally learning that lesson. It only took two years and seven months. They do have thick skulls but thin skins. They learned Justice is connected to money. Our Money. The greenbacks that will not be making the journey to Aruba anytime soon. America has voted with it's purse strings. The winner of that election is - 'Anywhere but Aruba'. How's that for a new brochure slogan?

But does that bring us one step closer to Justice? Only time will tell on that one, but wait should not be much longer.

We have to recognize that the rest of the world does not work like American Jurisprudence. We can only wish. For the most part, the rest of the world is lacking any Justice for Victims and does not come close to the standards we set for ourselves. Standards that others do not want to acknowledge. Our Justice System, although not perfect, is the heavy lifting most just do not want to get involved with. It takes real pride to hold yourself to our standards. Most countries would rather just skirt the immense push it takes to ensure that the weakest among us receive the same treatment as the Queen and her Court.

What's next?

The case could be closed and that brings us all one step closer to Uncle Sam finally getting involved. Of course there are no assurances from anyone in the US Federal Government that they will in fact get any closer to the truth. There are no indications they will make any move at all. If there is, I haven't seen it. I am well aware of Art Wood's extradition statements and I can only hope, but they have to be willing.

Those responsible for the Crimes against Natalee Holloway need to be tried and convicted whether on Aruba or in the United States. And the Holloway's made whole.

I have not posted about Madeleine McCann is quite some time. And no, I have certainly not forgotten about her.

It just seems the case is not moving in any direction. No direction at all. One day it seems there will be a major break-through and then nothing happens. Then the next day it looks like the case will move in another direction and then again - nothing.

As a sub-item to the case, I have been following the postings of those on the UK Mirror Forum and the case is as hot as Plutonium 239. Six months later and it is as hot as it was on day one. Nothing has changed. And for the most part there are some really good folks over there. They have a real desire to see Madeleine found; dead or alive, the case concluded and those responsible punished.

It takes a special person to hang with a case so passionately for six months. It really does. It takes someone with a real sense of Justice. Someone who cherishes all that Justice provides. A system designed to protect the weakest among us. To ensure that All receive the same treatment should we ourselves become Crime Victims.

The theories are all over the spectrum and some are quite well thought out. Some are just plain nuts.

Beside the fact that we all want Madeleine found yesterday, I do note the intensity of the debate. I usually do not talk about Forum debate here. It's mainly about the Crime Victim. But in this case, the debate is so intense because the issue is so volatile.

It is still about a defenseless little girl, and it always was. If you can't passionately debate about this issue and stand up for Madeleine, there is probably not much that will ever get you in an uproar. Check your blood pressure . . . you just might be dead.

Madeleine is still missing, and everyone and everything is under the microscope on the Mirror Board. Rightfully so.

Cases are not usually solved on a forum. It has happened and Grande and I will attest to that, but for the most part it is the discussion that furthers the cause of Justice and ensures it never becomes a back-shelf item.

For that I am grateful to those that are SO passionate.

It does get HOT on The Mirror Board. And Rightfully So.

***COURTESY OF CARPE NOCTEM***

Last night Carpe Noctem sent me this link - NHOLLOWAY.BLOGSPOT.COM

It's a new site dedicated to the Search For Natalee. It is a journal of the travels of the R/V Persistence. The Author is Mr. Kyle Kingman. It looks like it will be updated as new info becomes available.

Take a look and see for yourself.

Godspeed Mas Amigo : )

PERSISTENCE

***COURTESY OF CARPE NOCTEM***

The Kalpoes Brothers will be walking out of jail and back into reality. The case against them is in all likelihood over. Never say never. They have been arrested three times, only to be released each and every time. The evidence is apparently not there.

This ends the beach story and what was left of Larry Garrison's remaining credibility. Garrison was wrong and he based it all on Joran Van Der Sloot's personal diaries. Garrison believes Satish pick-up Joran. Based on Joran's words. Garrison believes every word Joran speaks. Garrison and Anita Van Der Sloot. What company! Would you believe a word written in those journals? No, me either. Ms. Van Susteren is gonna have to get used to that, and she's not one who likes to be wrong. She's been pushing this theory harder than anyone. I'm actually quite relieved that the focus has shifted back to Montanja 19 - where is should have been since Day One.

The House of Sloot.

Between Garrison's Deep Throat and the Beach Story, was there one item he actually got right? - I almost forgot his Columbian Condom Man.

Sell, Sell, Sell. He got that part right, I guess. Problem was he is basing it all on a little girl that has been murdered. Shame. Hey Larry, maybe you should finally return those diaries, Joran is begging for something to read and he will even accept his own fiction.

Van Der Straaten's colossal collapse as an investigator is also now complete. Even the Judge did not believe a word he said. Van Der Straaten triangulated Joran to the beach. Or did he? Maybe he didn't and only said he did. I don't know, and have always said the phone / text records are incomplete. Pieces of that pie are missing and have either been deliberately removed or have never been added. It's also possible that an item or two was intentionally added to make it appear Joran was somewhere he was not.

In an investigation this corrupt anything is possible.

How can I arrest the son of my best friend? Indeed! Like any one else, unless you are as crooked as we have all suspected. Run Jan Run... all the way to Bonaire. Another Dutch Coward.

Mos appears, on the outside, to be a straight shooter. And only time will tell. Joran Van Der Sloot and his father, Premeditated Paulus Van Der Sloot, have always been the focus no matter what anyone else says. And let's keep our eyes on them.

They cook up more stories than any two criminals I have ever seen and logic dictates there is a reason for that. To shift the focus to others while they themselves have committed the crimes against Natalee Holloway.

I don't believe for one second that the Kalpoes are NOT involved. They are involved somehow. We all know that. But their level of culpability remains in question.

In a case that leaves us all searching for the truth, one thing remains clear. The KLPD has an informant, and that informant works directly for the KLPD. Information developed led the investigation directly to the Sloot compound and a search for evidence was launched. No one spent one ounce of energy digging up the Kalpoe's abode. That alone told me something all the way back when.

What that evidence entails should be the nail that seals the coffin on two of the worst human beings in quite some time.

The list of suspects shrinks. It does not expand and the scope is now squarely where it belongs - on Joran and Premeditated Paulus Van Der Sloot.

Joran remains in jail. And will not be getting out anytime soon. Like father like son. Let the sweating begin!

I surmise that the evidence against Joran includes his father.

How could it not?
