DKW 86 7,426 Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 Link on Yahoo, from Drudge From Fox Major Break in Natalee Holloway Case Saturday, June 11, 2005 ORANJESTAD, Aruba  Police investigating the disappearance of an Alabama honors student in Aruba (search) arrested a man at dawn Saturday, hours after one of three young men already in custody admitted "something bad happened" to the woman after they took her to the beach. It was unclear if the 6 a.m. arrest was related to the admission. The same team of officers who arrested five others in the case during the past week went to a home just outside Oranjestad (search), the capital, and came out with a handcuffed man who looked to be in his 20s. Saturday morning, police refused to comment on the arrest or say if they had discovered anything overnight that solved the mystery of what happened to Natalee Holloway (search), 18, who was last seen in the early hours of May 30. Late Friday, Deputy Police Commissioner Gerold Dompig told The Associated Press that the man who made the statement was leading police to the scene. He refused to identify which of the three young men who took her to a beach the night she went missing made the statement. The three young men arrested Thursday  two Surinamese brothers and the 17-year-old Dutch son of a high-ranking island judicial official  were expected to appear before a judge Saturday, government spokesman Ruben Trapenberg said. Authorities have refused to say on what grounds they were being held. The judge would decide whether police have sufficient grounds to continue holding them.

AURaptor 1,125 Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 Hate to see this, but I really didn't see it turning out any different. Such a pointless waste of life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDM4AU 332 Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 It was in the B'ham Post Herald this morning also and on CNN. Now, CNN is crawfishing just a bit on the whole "confession" thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AURaptor 1,125 Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 crawfishing? That's a new one for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDM4AU 332 Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 crawfishing? That's a new one for me. 163547[/snapback] Backing off the whole "conessed to killing" part. The story know is that they are not sure what the accused confessed to. Have you ever seen a crawfish swim? Shrimp are similar in that both swim backwards.
