He’s an outsider who killed a Peruvian woman that belonged to a well-to-do family.
If there isn’t a contract out on him already I’d be very surprised.
I go with those who see him as fighting for his life against very long odds. I bet he’d rather be in solitary than out in the general population.
Van der Sloot will be Kaput.
This may be that part of the contract stipulating a drawn out initial period where he has to fear going to sleep.
