It is not over yet.


People asked me why they let Joran go. It's simple, no one, local authorities, Dutch specialist nor F.B.I. could not get evidences or proof that a murder has been commited. Being released today does not mean that the suspect is free. He is still awaiting trial for Rape and Kidnapping. He is not allowed to leave the island cause he must always be available for interrogators to pick him in connection with ongoing investigation of the disappearance. But still going to court for rape and kidnapping. Why you ask, if there is no body there is no evidence?

Wel, the rape comes because in early statements made by the brothers, one said he saw how the other suspect make sexual advances to the girl who obviously was not at her right state of mind, either by alcohol or drugs. That, under Dutch Law is considered rape.

And the Kidnapping case is because under Dutch Law if you are the last person seen with someone who disappeared you can be charged with kidnapping unless you can prove otherwise or have an alibi that you had nothing to do with the disappearance.

The brothers and the other suspect are still detained for questioning, and their stay has been prolonged for six more days.

All over the island are still poster, new and old reminding everyone that is still not over.
