Natalee still lost in Aruba? Doubtful...

I wasn't even sure if we were still supposed to post an article summary for this week, since its Thanksgiving break, so I decided to put one up anyways just in case...but late.

Natalee Halloway (lost in Aruba back in 2005)'s possible killers, might have finally been brought to justice. The three men that saw her last, in a bar in Aruba are all still prime suspects. In Aruba, the chief public prosecutor states, "You don't need a body under our law to prove someone is dead. And any day that passes now is just more evidence that she is not alive anymore." All three men, Deepak, Satish Kalpoe, and Joran Van der Sloot, have been charged with "involvement in the voluntary manslaughter of Natalee Holloway or causing serious bodily harm to Natalee Holloway, resulting in her death."

The three men continue to plee innocence in having any kind of involvement with Natalee beyond being with her at the bar, yet they have holey alibis. All three men were arrested in 2005, but released due to lack of sufficient evidence. Van der Sloot was suprised to be called back to court, because he felt as though the incident he was originally jailed for, was "behind him."

Deepak and Satish (the Kalpoe brothers) droped off Sloot and Natalee at the beach and went home after the nightclub. Sloot says he left Natalee at the beach alone when he decided to go home, because "she wanted to stay." Sloots mother vouches for Sloot's statement.

The Halloway family has hired someone with sonar equipment to search the waters for the possibility of Natalee's remains.
