LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN U.S. POLICE AND THE ALE!

By Meri, Aruban Boycott Blogger


So What Now??? A year has come and gone. Natalee is still nowhere to be found. Aruba continues to pretend like they are investigating her disappearance. Some Dutch Professors admit that the case was bungled from the start.


Joran is free in Holland pursuing his college degree. The Kalpoe Brothers continue to live on Aruba and to remain silent. Joe Tacopina awaits a NY Judge's decision as to whether or not the civil lawsuit goes forward or is thrown out for lack of jurisdiction. Beth shows Greta Van Susteren around Natalee's bedroom and we see a well organized calendar with dates as far ahead as August of 2006. Pretty summer dresses hang in a closet no longer used.


Rita speaks about Natalee and the case with Dave Holloway. On Saturday, America's Most Wanted will do a special on Natalee where one of her close friends will speak out for the first time. Does the above sound like a bunch of headlines strung together? Is what's left of the case of the disappearance of Natalee Holloway no more than a page in a tabloid...a quick nightly news report? Have other stories pushed Natalee out of the news?


Think about this; a girl was strangled in an apartment near Clemson University. The police believe that the case will be solved and there are already persons of interest in their sights. A wake was held for the young lady today and she will be buried by her loved ones.


Another young lady was kidnapped and taken to an apartment complex in Birmingham, Alabama. She was found the same day and the kidnapper is in custody due to excellent police work. A woman was murdered by two brutal killers who video taped their dirty deeds and who may have also killed at least one other woman. They have been caught and are behind bars.


The families of the victims will bury their loved ones. MOST cases of homicide and murder are solved and in even more the victims are recovered and their families can bury them.


The news changes every day but one thing remains constant; Natalee has not been found and her parents have not recovered her. If she is dead they cannot bury her. The police investigating her disappearance could in no possible way be described as having practiced excellent police work.


So, where do we go from here...those of us who want to help? I can tell you what I am going to do...I am going to blog and blog and blog until Beth and Dave have their answers. Until they know what happened to their daughter and if she will ever come home...even for the purpose of a funeral service. I am going to keep talking about Natalee Holloway until I have no more voice and my hands no longer have the strength to type.


You might ask why and I would have to defer you to the images of Beth that I watched on television last night. The pictures of a mother going through her daughter's precious possessions and trying to hold back her tears. I would have to defer you to the images of a father who is being interviewed and while I listen to him speak I can hear the sadness in his voice and see the sorrow in his eyes, I watch him holding back his own tears. That's why...


For those of you who believe that Natalee deserves justice, keep on going...don't give up.
