Yes. Necessarily.
If it were my daughter, and her apparent missing and probably murder were so mishandled, I would want George W. Bush personally calling for a boycott by the entire world.
Months after the fact?
"Months after the fact?"
Had this been done earlier, would no the question be "ALREADY"?
I think natlaies mom ( and others) have waited appropriate amount of time and this is a good pressure tool to use at this time to get some ANSWERS.
I would be doing it if it was my child. So would you.
>>>Months after the fact?
You aren't a parent are you? Oh, let me guess you are going to say Yes I am and guess what else. I won't believe you!
Any parent, ANY PARENT wouldn't stop after a few months of their missing child not being found and the apparent murderers going free. Not one worth a damn anyway.
Yes. I still believe in a fair and just judicial system. I would have wanted the investigation to have due process and this does take a certain amount of time.
I would have been wrong to trust the Aruban authorities were really trying to get to the truth of Natalie's disappearance. This case was mishandled from the start, and that is easy to see now.
Why? What, according to you, is the proper waiting time before US officials get involved?
All the evidence points to Joran and his posse dropping something in her drink, and while she could still walk, taking her to their car, and from there to the gang rape site. (They have admitted to this much.) Moreover, they seem to have made a habit of this on young pretty female tourists. No one expects to be drugged and raped at a "tropical paradise."
They need to be stopped.
What is your point exactly? If you had been paying close attention to this Aruban debacle, you would know that the parents have bent over backwards (more like bent into pretzels) to let this "investigation" run its course. Natalie's parents have plenty of evidence of deliberate negligence in the "investigation". They have been lied to repeatedly, which is why the family chose to go public and keep the pressure on the govt.
They have waited and waited for the cooperation of the officials in Aruba to do the right thing and have held back on calling for a boycott, knowing it will hurt many law abiding citizens in Aruba.
After this latest insulting slap in the face by the Aruban govt, Beth & Dave have finally ask for their government's help and intervention. People who question their motives or this govenor's should be ashamed.
Time heals all wounds. It's all just water under the bridge. Lets just put this behind us and move on. They got away with it, and there's nothing we can do about it. Let's all just vacation in Arruba, keep feeding their economy, along with the corruption that allows the perps to escape justice. All they have to do is drag it out until the evidence goes away, and then it will be months after the fact. We should also not keep prisoners in prison months after the fact, and if you can avoid paying your bills for months, then you should never have to pay them back.
Isn't your child worth it? At what moment do you say to your missing child....I give up on you..rest in peace? Think about it. It isn't like she has been found and they are still demanding justice. I might could let that part go. But what parent could ever quit looking for their child at all costs? Beth has said many times that not one shred of evidence proves that she is dead. She really could be somewhere else. Not likely I know but there is a chance. One chance in a billion is all I would need to still be pounding the pavement minute by minute to find my child.
