It continues to amaze me that Mrs. Twitty knows more than the police who are investigating the disappearance of her daughter, Natalie. It also amazes me that she is dead certain that the Vander Sloot boy and the Kalpoe brothers are criminals responsible for Natalie's fate. Is it really possible that her intuition is better than all efforts to gather evidence? So far, there is no crime scene, no evidence of foul play and no reliable witnesses to anything. Like all of us, I hope Natalie is found and any wrong-doers are brought to justice, but, so far, it looks a lot like a massive effort by Mrs. and Mr. Twitty and the American media to declare that 17 year-old boy a veritable 'Professor Moriarty,' outsmarting experienced investigators at every turn. If that is the case, I will remain amazed. But, in the mean time, it might be wise to rely on real evidence rather than emotionally heated demands for someone, anyone, to take the fall for Natalie. Has anyone looked into the possibility that Natalie has left Aruba (voluntarilly or otherwise) or that those 'fishermen' on the beach might know more than they have said so far? This is quite a mystery and will, no doubt, keep Greta and Nancy in the spotlight for a while longer.
So the girl has no money with her and she gets into a taxi with three strangers?????????
I've seen the case convincingly made that the investigation was deliberately botched from the beginning, and that there are close ties between the Dutch boy's father and the Aruban chief of police which may explain why this is so. I have not seen anyone from the U.S., family or media, describe the investigation as even minimally competant.
I have to agree after spending far too much time listening to the same "facts" over and over, day and night. Now Beth returns to Aruba after a brief trip home (never mentions how her son is doing), all fired up as if she's the chief prosecutor with forensic evidence. Boggles the mind.
