I’m sure it would be good to have some kind of closure for the family.

The problem with going public with this BEFORE investigating the scene is it may be tamped with by some tourist or the perp (bones disappear, etc).

I wouldn’t.
The bastard.
Eveytime I see a picture of that beautiful young American girl, I get so pissed off at Aruba, at the Vander Sluts, and at our own State Department for their non-response on this issue.
Teddy Roosevelt would have sent a gunboat.

It looks like a picture of rocks, in a shape very vaguely resembling a skeleton if you squint and think of Grateful Dead t-shirts.

I’m sure Urine vander Slut’s family will be disposing of this as soon as the Aruban authorities tell them where it’s located.

It looks like a picture of rocks, in a shape very vaguely resembling a skeleton .... That's my impression too. I think it's highly unlikely that any single part of her is going to be intact at this distance in time, much less an entire body or skeleton.

Im sure Urine vander Sluts family will be disposing of this as soon as the Aruban authorities tell them where its located. Joren's father, Paul, just died of a heart attack within the past couple of months. Part of the cover-up was buried with him.

There’s no scale to the photo. And nothing to gauge depth. It could be anything. And without a distinct landmark, how are the authorities even going to know where to look???

Davy Jones must have gotten out of his locker.
I sympathise with those parents who have aparently lost their daughter. It is a sad thing that van der Slut was not whisked out of the country, and questioned by “experts”...in order to get to the truth.

Mister Vander Sloot has gone to his eternal reward. God will see that he gets exactly what’s coming to him; whether good or ill. Praise Jesus!

That is not a human spine. The intervertebral disk spaces are far too wide. This is not worth wasting five seconds of a policeman’s time.

I downloaded the pic and zoomed way in on the skull area. It sure looks like it could be a skull facing down and into the sand, with the jaw turned almost 180 degrees back to the right. Its really fuzzy but it looks like you can even see a gum and teeth looking area on the jaw..its all so smudged looking though when you zoom in..so who knows?
Its hard to say how the body was damaged before dumping, or what has been chewed on by animals...

...ready to inject KCl solution into a vein or artery. (If you are from a Blue State, KCl is potassium chloride). The Dutch use it for killing ‘volunteers’.

I would think it would be rather unusual for a body to remain together in the ocean with tide currents and natural predators etc.

In Aruban seas, I bet there are lots of skeletons...not the safest place for anyone to vacation. Hope for the family’s sake they finally get the truth as to what happened to their daughter, either from the remains being found independently, or that creep Van Der Sloot finally giving a true account and backing it up with the actual location of her remains.

I mean there’s no telling how far the sea floor is from the viewer or what the relative size of anything is to anything else that we would know the size of.
