ARUBA--THE RAPE CAPITOL?
Aruba--Another Day, Another Rape
Now that's an UNDERSTATEMENT!
BOSTON -- With its year-round warmth and nearly rain-free climate, Aruba has become a vacation oasis for thousands of Massachusetts residents. But in recent days, a dark side has emerged. NewsCenter 5's Amalia Barreda reported that a local woman said she was raped after leaving the same bar in Aruba where missing Alabama teen Natalee Holloway was last seen. "Aruba is not as safe as the commercials make it out to be," said Marie, who withheld her last name.
Marie said she made four trips to Aruba with friends and believed the island was safe. That's why she had no qualms about traveling there alone for Christmas 2001. She stayed at the same Holiday Inn where Holloway and her high school classmates booked their rooms. On Christmas Eve, Marie said she went to Carlos 'N Charlie's, the same bar where the missing Alabama teen was last seen. When she left, Marie said a man pulled her into his car, drove away and raped her. "As I was being pulled into vehicle, screams came out of me that I couldn't imagine ever coming out of me of me and people did nothing," said Marie. "I have never felt threatened, felt scared.
Aruba is home away from home for me and always will be," said Neely Cosentino, an Aruba homeowner. Cosentino said she and her husband bought a second home in Aruba and spend more than half the year there. She said they made the investment because they believe the island is safe.
The government does not tolerant crime because tourism is their top industry. (HA! You've GOT to be kidding me...) "Over 500,000 tourists a year visit Aruba, and if it wasn't because of us Americans, Aruba wouldn't be the way it is. So to answer your question, there is zero tolerance for anybody that is threatening or doing any damage to Americans," said Cosentino. (I think this lady was paid by the Arubans to say that...otherwise this lady is a complete lunatic and idiot.)
Marie said she managed to get away from her assailant that night. She said she did not report the attack to island police because she was alone and afraid, but mostly because she would not have been able to identify her attacker.

Who in there right mine travels alone and on Christmas? I guess she didn't attend Beth's semminars for sticking with a "buddie" when traveling over seas...
What a bogus story. not worth printing.
Why does everything said that might have any positive thing to say about Aruba have to be complete BS according to you? Not to mention that you pulled a story that is over 4 YEARS OLD!
Screw ARUBA. Lying scumbags covered the truth up from the start and it was not an accident either. They did it all to cover for Paulus & son & his Amigo friends. Judge in training on how to be a corupt judge. HAHAH.
Hoping a TUSAMI WAVE comes crashing over the island sooner than later. Murderers.
