Police: Dutchman to reveal Holloway location
Police: Dutchman to reveal Holloway location

LIMA, Peru - As prosecutors in Peru prepared charges against Joran van der Sloot in the strangling death of a 21-year-old woman, police told NBC News on Thursday the Dutch man admits knowing the location of the remains of missing U.S. teen Natalee Holloway in Aruba.

Van der Sloot remains the lone suspect in Holloway’s disappearance — exactly five years to the day before Stephany Flores was killed in Peru.

Police sources told NBC News van der Sloot is now willing to tell authorities in Aruba where to find the Alabama teenager’s remains.

Van der Sloot was moved to a cell at the prosecutor's office in advance of filing charges in what police called a remarkably complete confession in the killing of Flores, the daughter of a circus promoter and former race car driver whom he met playing poker at a casino.

'Practically closed the case"
"We've practically closed the case," criminal police chief Gen. Cesar Guardia told The Associated Press.

1. Good
Is it possible that he feels an actual NEED to come clean??? Who knows. I feel so bad for the families of these two young women. Hopefully this will give them closure so they can begin the healing process.

2. No I don't think that's it! I am betting that they made sure he knew
how unfcomfortable his life would be in their jails. They would ensure he would be with the worst of the worst. He is a sociopath and he is the type that gets off of the family members angst and suffering.

How many young women has he harmed since Natalie is the question?

3. How many young women has he harmed since Natalie is the question?
And perhaps prior to.

I do hope he'll reveal the location so the parents can have a proper burial.

7. That crossed my mind, as well
He may have been reeling from the effects of the death of the father who pulled his ass out of the fire five years earlier. I have to wonder why he checked in under his own name, if he intended to kill another victim. He didn't cover his tracks anywhere near as well as he did in Aruba.

4. Did you see this?
"Murder “as result of violent emotion" — from 3 to 5 years in prison"

Good grief.

5. He still has that extortion charge in the USA facing him
and I think I read he would get 35 years, it is federal, so if he gets 35 years he will have no parole. Feds don't give parole.

6. He'd get 35 years if it's premeditated.
Hopefully they'll be able to prove that.

8. Her family is well-off and powerful
The Dutch Boy won't make it one year in Peruvian prison, even if he's put in solitary.

9. I'd like for the parents of Natalee Holloway to get closure
I'd like for the parents of all missing children to get closure.
