[@willowproxy4346]

Natalee was from Mountain Brook Alabama, I grew up in Vestavia Hills Alabama right next door. I was in third grade when all this happened. I remember for the first 3 or 4 years I heard about this case on a daily basis. Anytime a new development happened or an anniversary came around there would always be local reports whether or not there were national ones. For most of my life the name Natalee Holloway has lived rent-free in my head. I've always wondered what really happened to her and if she and I had ever cross paths even just for a second before all this happened. Van Der Sloot has lied many times, but I'm hoping now he's just gotten tired of all the games and just decided to tell the truth. Hopefully this brings some kind of closure to Natalee's family and if Natalee exists somewhere out there hopefully she's at peace. Edit: After hearing his actual confession, I do believe this is him actually admitting to killing her, but the way in which it happened sounds like another lie. What he is saying leaves no explanation for why she wasn't found. If what he's saying is true she would have been. Personally I think the evidence implied by the emails they were looking into tell a more realistic version of events.

After 18 years!!!! Wow that's nuts!! Hopefully this guy never gets out in prison.

[@kate-he6xt]

at this point it’s just a mockery when that “thing” issued an apology. in the beginning how can we even know if he’s being honest after leading the case on saying yes no yes no over and over all these nearly DECADES whether or not he did it? please ladies be careful first off never EVER go alone with someone new no matter WHAT and always be polite as possible, never know what’s going on in their head

I remember being in middle school and hearing about her disappearance. So sad she missed out on so much and will never live to her full potential because an immature boy couldn’t take no for an answer. I wish she was traveling with her family and not alone. May he rot.

all these years of pain just because she said no to a kiss

What's a cinderblock doing in the sand on the beach!?

So why didn't he get the death penalty?

[@45square]

Bc he wasn’t charged with murder.

Just horrific hearing what happened to that poor girl. However, I'm happy that her family, especially her mother finally knows the truth.
