Hey, Dr. Phil, the world's greatest crimefighter/investigator, said on the Tonight show last night he has some good evidence that she was still alive, had been kidnapped, and sold to a sex slave ring.
I saw that! He must know something we don't know. Or he is just grasping at straws.

"As a lot of you know, Dr. Phil played an alleged tape of Deepak Kalpoe talking about Natalee Holloway on his show. The tape was recorded by Jamie Skeeters, a licensed polygrapher. They claim that the tape is pure, unedited and uncut.
Recently someone from Aruba said that they wanted that tape to further the case but the Dr. Phil show turned them down unless they come and make it a part of the show.
This is outrageous on so many levels that I don't have the space to cover it all.
Assuming that the tape is legitimate, it belongs in the hands of those investigating the case and NOT in the hands of a showman and self-proclaimed television star like Dr. Phil. To me, this comes under the heading of impeding a a criminal investigation and withholding evidence at the very least.
If the tape is NOT uncut, unedited or not the voice of Deepak Kalpoe than we have another whole can of worms and that's even more unlawful in my opinion.
Unfortunately, Beth Twitty threw her lot in with the Doctor and to me, she demeaned herself, Natalee and the entire case by doing so.
Now that Phil won't play ball with the investigators or at least turn the ORIGINAL tape over to the FBI for scrutiny, Beth has unwittingly become a part of hampering the investigation into her daughter's disappearance.
I wrote to Dr. Phil (the address is available if you Google it). Simply put Dr. Phil or the correct network into Google and it will bring up how to make contact with the show.
I encourage everyone to send an email to this man and insist that he do the right thing by turning that tape over to the proper authorities for analysis.
The more I hear of his tactics regarding this tape the less I believe in the veracity of the tape. Is the good Doctor so desperate for ratings that he would use something like this (a possible piece of evidence) to further those ratings?
I am fed up with the secrecy surrounding this case. The vagueness doesn't just exist within the prosecutor's office on Aruba. Beth is vague when questioned about her next steps and Dr. Phil is playing a ratings game.
Has Natalee Holloway become simply a Hollywood creation to be used to sell shows? When will we be seeing the movie of the week?
If Dr. Phil has evidence he needs to put up or shut up and Beth Twitty needs to either insist that he comply with the Aruban authorities or stop complaining that NO ONE is doing anything to find her daughter". ------------
