rogers wrote: In the brushy area to the north of the Marriott the police are doing an intense search. Press and all have been moved far away. Roads are blocked off.
Also in that area there was found earlier in the day a pair of women’s underwear and a number of condoms. However, this is a lovers lane type area. Not sure what to make of this last fact yet.
However, the stories now coming from the arrested group would likely place evidence in this area of the island.
From ABC News, Aruban Police Launch New Search for Teen
Nearly three dozen police officers launched a search Tuesday along a beach near the Marriott Hotel for Natalee Holloway after a former security guard alleged that one of three youths seen with the missing teenager had lied to police.
Antonius “Mickey” John said he was detained in a cell adjacent to one of the young men, 21-year-old Deepak Kalpoe, and that the two spent time talking.
John, 30, said Kalpoe told him that he and his 18-year-old brother, Satish, and their 17-year-old Dutch friend never went back to the Holiday Inn the morning of May 30, the day Holloway disappeared on this Dutch Caribbean island during a student trip.
Kalpoe said they instead dropped the Dutch youth and Holloway off near the Marriott, located just north of the Holiday Inn, on the same beach.
Police cordoned off a three-block area near the Marriott, and government spokesman Ruben Trapenberg confirmed it was yet another search for the 18-year-old from Mountain Brook, Ala., High School.
************* Update: According to Canal 90, one of the 3 boys told the cops that they burried Natalie at the Fisherman’s Huts and that the FBI has two dogs on the scene.

Micky John declared yesterday that the two brothers confessed to him.
After leaving Arashi /Lighthouse, they left Natalee with Joran at Fisher's mans hut a beach close to the Hyatt. They went to swim at that beach.
That was the last time they saw Natalee. They went home and went to the internet to chat. After one hour, they received a message from Joran that stated: "I have something to tell you"
This was statement of Micky John, detainee, that helped to secure his freedom yesterday.
[that should be Marriott not Hyatt]

Here is an interesting stuff at Riehl World View as well
about how Joran Van Der Sloot was found and suspected by the family from shortly after arriving in Aruba
Here is the part that is real interesting:
The taxi driver provided more detailed information about Joran and the group decided to approach the police with the information they had gathered. After discussing the information with the local police, the group, accompanied by two officers headed to the Van der Sloot home. The officers honked the horn repeatedly every few minutes in front of the house prior to the emergence of Joran's Father at approximately 12:30 am.
Joran was not home and his father told the group that he could be found playing poker at one of the casinos in the Palm Beach area of Aruba. The group, including the father, headed off to locate the boy. Upon arriving at the casino, the police, security guards, along with Natalee's parents are said to have "swarmed" onto the floor and at least one report states the police had their weapons drawn.
The young Van der Sloot was not located in the casino. Soon thereafter, Joran Van der Sloot placed a call to his Father's cell phone and informed him that he was at home.
The entire group, including the police, headed back to the Van der Sloot home. They arrived to find Joran Van der Sloot and Satish Kalpoe, the younger of two brothers recently detained in the matter, leaning casually against what has been reported to be the grey car now impounded in the investigation.
The police set about questioning the two boys. They are said to have claimed at that time that the now missing Natalee Holloway did indeed leave Carlos And Charlies with them and the entire group went to the lighthouse area together prior to dropping Natalee back at her hotel. The boys also made additional claims consistent with other earlier reports
With Natalee's Mother said to have remained in the car, possibly out of the emotion involved in meeting two of the now three boys alleged to have been the last to see her daughter alive, others in the group including the Stepfather were present as the questioning continued for approximately an hour.
Certain aspects of the discussion, some said to have involved Joran Van der Sloot's Father, led to the discussion becoming heated and police officers requested that the group disperse. More than one individual among the group of Americans present at the Joran home that night report a belief that the boys were lying and did indeed do something to harm Natalee Holloway.

I didn't even realize Micky John was freed. Why was he allowed to talk to the kids though?
do you get the feeling that the family and the security guards are better investigators than the police
do you think the security guards were in on the scam at all?
since they seem to have gotten the pertinent information out of the boys
of course if the kid emailed his buddies as they claim there were be a record of that on the computer even if they didn't realize it......
"Micky John declared yesterday that the two brothers confessed to him."
The confessed to "Mickey John?" He's the guard, right? Put him back on the suspect list...
bump
Sadly, this all makes sense.
Joran appears to be Aruba's version of Robert Chambers.
Aruba obviously has a very small jail, the three boys were moved so they couldn't talk to each other anymore but one of the brothers was in a cell right beside John
makes me wonder if the security guards weren't co-operating with the police, very clever, very common move by the cops, get an inmate to get someone to talk
Aruba is a small island and these guys likely knew these kids, and the kids knew them which is why they likely pinned it on them in the first place, they knew these guys were pick up artists too....
no they confessed to him in jail
bump
I'm quite afraid that the Aruban authorities are going to screw this case up beyond redemption.
Yep be interesting to hear what his story is now....
it was an accident????
well forensics can tell the whole story
someone from MSNBC was in Aruba, a male producer said he met this Mickey John fellow just a few weeks ago and he couldn't believe this guy would be involved (but then who'd have thought honour boy would do something like this)
he said he was a very charming guy, so I'll bet he could have gotten it out of one of these guys and I'll also bet they all knew each other, I can just hear it now
Hey mon, why you accusing me of dis, it was Joran's idea, we swear
I seriously doubt that Aruba has a crack forensics team. They've probably only dealt with a handful of murders over the years, and never a high profile one such as this where the perp and vic weren't somehow involved in other criminal activity. I'm afraid the Aruban authorities are going to fail miserably in this investigation. I do hope I'm wrong.
These reports can be something or nothing.
Until the body is found and identified, it's hard to believe anything at all coming from the media.

So they dropped off the Joran and Natalee. Why not say so from the beginning, loyal to Joran? Or is that story false too, and the brothers are absoving themselves from the bigger crime?
When will the CSI Team from Miami be getting there?
