Joran Andreas Petrus van der Sloot (born August 6, 1987; Arnhem, Gelderland, Netherlands) is a Dutch national who lived in Aruba.[3] He is charged in the United States with wire fraud and extortion related to the whereabouts of Natalee Holloway who disappeared in Aruba on May 30, 2005,[1] and is charged in Peru with the first-degree murder and robbery of Stephany Tatiana Flores Ramírez who died in the Peruvian capital Lima on May 30, 2010, exactly five years after Holloway's disappearance.[2] Van der Sloot was apprehended on June 3 in Chile and was deported to Peru the next day.[8] On June 7, he confessed to causing the death of Flores Ramírez and was transferred on June 11 to Miguel Castro Castro maximum security prison in Lima.[2][9]

Background

Van der Sloot was an honor student at the International School of Aruba.

Joran van der Sloot is the eldest of three sons born to Paulus van der Sloot, a prominent lawyer, and Anita van der Sloot-Hugen, an art teacher.[6] In 1990, his family moved from Arnhem to Aruba.[7] He was an honor student the International School of Aruba,[6] where his mother taught fine art since 1991.[7] He was considered a star soccer and tennis athlete at the school.[5] Van der Sloot competed in doubles tennis with his father at the Moët et Chandon Anniversary Cup in 2005.[6] He hoped to play for Saint Leo University in Tampa, Florida.[10] He led a privileged life and frequently was out gambling and partying with friends.[10] His teenage girlfriend said that she left him because of his "problem with lying."[11]

In September 2005, Van der Sloot went to the Netherlands to study international business management at Hogeschool van Arnhem en Nijmegen.[4][12] In 2008, he moved to Muang Ake, a suburb of Bangkok, Thailand, to study business at Rangsit University. He dropped out of Rangsit and bought Sawadee Cup, a cafe next to the campus, but sold the business in early 2010 and returned to Aruba.[5]

Natalee Holloway disappearance

Carlos'n Charlie's, where Natalee Holloway was last seen with Van der Sloot, in Oranjestad, Aruba.

Van der Sloot and brothers Deepak Kalpoe (then age 21) and Satish Kalpoe (then age 18), were arrested on June 9, 2005, as suspects in the May 30, 2005 disappearance of an 18-year-old American woman, Natalee Holloway. As a result, Van der Sloot missed his high school graduation.[6] The Kalpoes were released from custody on July 4,[13] but were re-arrested on August 26 on suspicion of rape and murder, while Van der Sloot remained in custody. Van der Sloot and the Kalpoes were released on September 3 due to lack of evidence.[14] After his release, Van Der Sloot was required to stay within Dutch territory pending the results of the investigation. On September 5, 2005, Van der Sloot returned to the Netherlands to attend college.[15] On September 14, a higher court removed the travel restrictions.[16]

Early media coverage

On September 26, 2005, Van der Sloot said on the American television show A Current Affair that neither he nor the Kalpoe brothers had sex with Natalee, but admitted that they initially agreed to lie to the authorities. He said that they first told police that Holloway was dropped off alone at her hotel. Van der Sloot later said that he was dropped off with the teen at the beach. He stated that he left Holloway alone at the beach at her request, and that he regretted that.[17]

On February 6, 2006, Van der Sloot's parents broke their silence on Good Morning America, saying that their son was unfairly singled out and that the investigation has left them devastated.[18]

On February 16, 2006, while Van der Sloot and his father were in New York City for an interview with ABC Primetime, they were served with a lawsuit filed by Natalee's parents Beth Twitty and Dave Holloway, alleging personal injury by Joran van der Sloot against Holloway and alleging that the father created a permissive environment.[19] However, the case was dismissed on jurisdictional grounds on August 3, 2006.[20]

In April 2007, De Zaak Natalee Holloway (The Case of Natalee Holloway), a Dutch-language book by Van der Sloot and reporter Zvezdana Vukojevic, was published in the Netherlands. Van der Sloot stated in the introduction "I see this book as my opportunity to be open and honest about everything that happened, for anyone who wants to read it."[21]

2007 search and arrest

Dutch Marines search for Holloway near Aruba's California Lighthouse.

On April 27, 2007, a new search involving some twenty investigators was launched at the parental home of Joran van der Sloot on Aruba.[22] Dutch authorities searched the yard and surrounding area, using shovels and thin metal rods to penetrate the dirt. A spokesman for the prosecutor's office, Vivian van der Biezen stated "The investigation has never stopped and the Dutch authorities are completely reviewing the case for new indications". A statement released directly from the prosecutor's office stated: "The team has indications that justify a more thorough search."[23] Investigators did not comment on what prompted the new search, except that it was not related to Van der Sloot's book.[24]

On November 21, 2007, Van der Sloot was re-arrested in Arnhem, Netherlands, simultaneously with the Kalpoe brothers in Aruba for "suspicion of involvement in voluntary manslaughter and causing serious bodily harm that resulted in the death of Natalee Holloway" due to what the Aruba prosecutor's office stated was "new incriminating evidence" related to the disappearance of Holloway. Van der Sloot was returned to Aruba on November 23, and a court hearing on November 26 ruled to continue his detention for eight days.[25] The Kalpoe brothers were released on December 1. Van der Sloot was ordered released on December 7, and was released without charge the same day.[26]

2008 Dutch television sting operations

On January 11, 2008, after being challenged on the Dutch late-night talk show Pauw & Witteman by crime reporter Peter R. de Vries, Van der Sloot threw a glass of red wine into De Vries' face.[27]

On February 3, 2008, an undercover video made by De Vries was aired on Dutch television purporting to show Van der Sloot smoking marijuana and admitting to being present during Holloway's death. The show was watched by 7 million viewers in the Netherlands and was the most popular non-sports program in Dutch television history.[28] Patrick van der Eem, working undercover for De Vries, had befriended Van der Sloot, who was unaware that he was being taped when he said that Holloway had suffered some kind of seizure while having sex on the beach. After failing to revive her, he said that he summoned a friend named Daury, who loaded her on a boat and dumped her body into the sea.[29] The prosecutor in Aruba determined the video was admissible,[30] but the evidence was deemed insufficient to warrant re-arrest. Although the taped confession appeared damning, Van der Sloot argued that he was lying to impress Van der Eem, whom he believed was a drug dealer.[31] On September 22, 2008, in New York, De Vries accepted an International Emmy Award in Current Affairs for his coverage while accompanied by Natalee's mother, Beth Twitty.[32]

In November 2008, De Vries aired undercover footage of Van der Sloot making preparations for the apparent sex trafficking of Thai women in Bangkok. De Vries claimed that Van der Sloot was making $13,000 for every woman sold into prostitution in the Netherlands.[33] However, there is no record of any women being delivered or an official investigation being opened.[5]

Father's involvement in the case

Joran's father Paulus van der Sloot was arrested on June 22, 2005 for questioning in the disappearance. Paulus was ordered released on June 26 after three days of questioning.[34] According to Aruba's chief prosecutor, one of the Kalpoe brothers told investigators that Paulus, who was training to be a judge at the time,[10] advised that without a body, the police would have no case.[35] Holloway's mother Beth Twitty pursued Van der Sloot's parents in the ensuing media circus on Aruba. She said that Paulus acknowledged that they could not control their son and had sent him to a psychologist.[10]

On November 10, 2005, Paulus van der Sloot won an unjust detention action against the Aruban government, clearing him as a suspect and allowing him to retain his government contract.[16] The elder Van der Sloot then brought a second action, seeking monetary damages for himself and his family because of his false arrest.[36][37] The action was initially successful, but the award of 50,000 Aruban florins (US$27,900) was reversed on appeal.[38] Paulus found work at the law firm that represented him,[37] but the family's finances were depleted by the legal expenses.[5]

On November 24, 2008, On the Record aired an interview with Joran Van der Sloot in which he alleged that he sold Holloway into sexual slavery, receiving money both when Holloway was taken, and later on to keep quiet. Van der Sloot also alleged he paid the Kalpoe brothers for their assistance, and that his father paid off two police officers who had learned that Holloway was taken to Venezuela. Van der Sloot later retracted the statements made in the interview.[39] The show also aired part of an audio recording provided by Van der Sloot, which he alleged is a phone conversation between him and his father, in which the father displays knowledge of his son's purported involvement in human trafficking. According to Mos, this voice heard on the recording is not that of Paulus van der Sloot. The Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf reported that the "father's" voice is almost certainly that of Joran van der Sloot himself, trying to speak in a lower tone.[40]

On February 11, 2010, Paulus died of a heart attack at the age of 57 while playing tennis in Aruba.[41] Joran returned soon afterwards to Aruba and turned to gambling. He wrote on his YouTube page: "I do not have a real job but am a professional poker player. If I would have to describe myself as an animal it would be a snake. However, I want to be a lion and one day I will be a lion."[5]

2010 charges in the United States

Around March 29, 2010, Van der Sloot allegedly contacted John Q. Kelly, legal representative of Holloway's mother Beth Twitty, with an offer to reveal the location of her daughter's body and the circumstances surrounding her death for an advance of US$25,000 against a total of $250,000.[42] Kelly said that he secretly went to Aruba in April to meet with Van der Sloot, who was desperate for money, and gave him $100. Kelly notified the Federal Bureau of Investigation to set up a sting operation with the Aruban authorities.[43][44] On May 10, Van der Sloot allegedly accepted the amount of $15,000 by wire transfer to his account in the Netherlands, following a cash payment of $10,000 that was videotaped by undercover investigators in Aruba.[45][46] In exchange, Van der Sloot told Kelly that his father buried Holloway's remains in the foundation of a house. Authorities determined that the information that he provided in return was false, because the house had not yet been built at the time of her disappearance.[47] Van der Sloot later e-mailed Kelly that he lied about the house.[43] Twitty was shocked that the FBI did not promptly file extortion charges against Van der Sloot, allowing him to leave freely with the money to Bogotá, Colombia, on his way to Lima, Peru.[48][47] The FBI and the office of the U.S. Attorney contended that the case was not sufficently developed until June 3, when Van der Sloot was charged in the U.S. District Court of Northern Alabama with extortion and wire fraud.[44] U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance issued an arrest warrant through Interpol to have Van der Sloot prosecuted in the United States.[49] On June 4, at the request of the U.S. Justice Department, authorities raided and confiscated items from two homes in the Netherlands, one of them belonging to reporter Jaap Amesz who had previously interviewed Van der Sloot and claimed knowledge of his criminal activities.[50] Aruban investigators used information gathered from the extortion case to launch a new search at a beach, but no new evidence was found.[51] The Solicitor General said that they would not seek his extradition to Aruba.[52]

Death of Stephany Tatiana Flores Ramírez

On May 30, 2010, the fifth anniversary of Holloway's disappearance, Stephany Tatiana Flores Ramírez, 21, died at the Hotel TAC, S.A.C. in the Miraflores District of Lima, Peru.[53] On June 2, her beaten body was found by a hotel employee in room 309,[54] which had been registered in Van der Sloot's name.[55] He had departed from the hotel without returning the room key and left the television blaring.[56] According to Peruvian investigators, Flores Ramírez suffered blunt force trauma to her head, causing a brain hemorrhage and breaking her neck.[46][54] A tennis racquet, identified by the coroner as the likely homicide weapon, was recovered from the room.[48] A hotel guest and an employee came forward to claim they saw Van der Sloot and the victim entering the hotel room together, and the police have video of the two playing cards at the same table the night before at the Atlantic City Casino in Lima.[57][55] Van der Sloot had entered Peru via Colombia on May 14, 2010 to attend the Latin American Poker Tour.[58][59]

Flores Ramírez was a business student at the University of Lima.[60] She was the daughter of Ricardo Flores, a former president of the Peruvian Automobile Club and winner of the "Caminos del Inca" rally in 1991. A prominent businessman and entertainment organizer, he ran for vice president in 2001 and for president five years later on fringe tickets.[61] Flores said that police found date rape drugs in his daughter's car, parked about 50 blocks from the hotel where she died.[62] Her jewelry, money, ID and credit cards were missing; about US$1000 was provided by her father to purchase a laptop and as much as $10,000 may have been won playing poker at the casino.[63][64][51] After Stephany was reported missing by her family, police retrieved the hotel surveillance tape and obtained Van der Sloot's name and national identification number. Her brother's wife discovered Van der Sloot's background in a Google search about an hour before her body was found.[65]

Arrest

Peruvian officials named Van der Sloot as the lone suspect in the homicide investigation.[55] Interpol issued an international arrest warrant for Van der Sloot, believing that he had fled the country to Chile and was traveling to Argentina.[66] Van der Sloot was sighted entering Chile via the Chacalluta border crossing, north of Arica, on May 31, 2010.[67][68] He was arrested near Curacaví by the Investigations Police of Chile on June 3 while traveling in a rented taxi on Highway 68 between the coastal city of Viña del Mar and the capital Santiago.[69][70] He was found with a laptop, foreign currency, a business card case, detailed charts of ocean currents around Lima, and bloody clothes.[71][55] He told Chilean police that unidentified robbers hid in the hotel room and killed Flores Ramírez.[72] His Dutch attorney claimed that Van der Sloot was on his way to Santiago to turn himself in.[73] He was subsequently transported by Chilean police in a Cessna 310 back to Arica and handed over to Peruvian authorities at the Chacalluta border crossing on June 4.[8][74] Van der Sloot arrived at Lima police headquarters on June 5, where he was interrogated about the death while represented by a state-appointed lawyer. The Dutch embassy provided a translator for his defense.[75] He was permitted to contact his mother and was held in a seventh-floor cell where he was fed the same meals that police officers received while on duty.[76] Van der Sloot was placed on suicide watch by guards after he deliberately hit his head against a wall.[77][78] On June 10, he was moved to a cell at the prosecutor's office in central Lima.[79]

Forensic investigation

Police released hotel security video showing Van der Sloot entering the Hotel TAC together with Flores Ramírez at about 5:00 A.M. on May 30, 2010.[80] At about 8:10 A.M., he is shown walking across the street to a supermarket and returning with bread and two cups of coffee. Nearly an hour and half later, he is seen in the video leaving the hotel alone with his bags. An autopsy ruled out that Flores Ramírez had sexual intercourse before her death and that she was under the influence of enough alcohol to prevent her from resisting an attack.[77] Both Van der Sloot and his victim tested positive for the presence of cocaine.[81] The stains on Van der Sloot's clothes matched the blood type of Flores Ramírez.[82] DNA tests are being conducted on the clothes and the previously recovered tennis racquet.[55]

Confession to homicide

On June 7, 2010, Van der Sloot confessed to killing Flores Ramírez.[83] According to an expert in Peruvian law, the confession fits a defense strategy of trying to get the charge reduced to manslaughter, which is punishable by 6 to 20 years in prison, while a conviction for murder could result in up to 35 years imprisonment.[84] Peru does not issue life sentences in standard cases of murder and has abolished capital punishment in all but exceptional circumstances, such as crimes committed under military law.[85][86] However, a life sentence can be issued for a murder committed during the commission of a robbery.[87]

On June 8, Peruvian investigators planned to take Van der Sloot back to the hotel room for a re-enactment of the crime scene as part of standard procedure,[88] but waived it after concluding that his confession was remarkably complete and corroborated by evidence.[89][79] Van der Sloot recounted that he briefly left the hotel to get some coffee and bread, and returned to find Flores Ramírez using his laptop computer without his permission. A police source stated that she may have found information linking him to the disappearance of Holloway. An altercation began and she attempted to escape.[85] Van der Sloot stated, "I did not want to do it. The girl intruded into my private life . . . she didn't have any right. I went to her and I hit her. She was scared, we argued and she tried to escape. I grabbed her by the neck and hit her."[83] Van der Sloot stated that he was intoxicated with marijuana at the time.[85] A detective linked to the case said that Van der Sloot considered getting rid of the body in a suitcase,[90] but decided against it because he would have been stopped at the front desk.[71] He then drank espresso and took amphetamines to counter fatigue before fleeing.[91]

Criminal police chief Cesar Guardia said Van der Sloot "let slip that he knew the place" where Holloway's body is buried.[90] Guardia stated that the interrogation was limited to their case in Peru, which he considered "practically closed," and that questions about Holloway's disappearance were avoided.[79] Guardia said that the motive for the crime was robbery.[51] Van der Sloot offered a different motive for killing Flores Ramírez, stating that he "feared that she would go to the police." On June 14, Peruvian authorities released the transcripts of Van der Sloot's confession.[92] His mother Anita expressed concern that her son's confession may have been coerced.[88] Van der Sloot's attorney Maximo Alonso Altez Navarro sought to strike down the confession on the grounds that his new client was not properly represented during his interrogation,[82] but resigned before being able to submit the motion to a judge because the case "created many problems" for him.[92] Altez Navarro had been threatened and harassed for taking the case, and Van der Sloot's family was unable to afford his legal expenses.[93]

Criminal proceedings

The Palace of Justice in Lima, where Van der Sloot was charged with murder.

On June 11, 2010, Lima Superior Court Judge Juan Buendia ordered Van der Sloot held on charges of first-degree murder and robbery, determining that he acted with "ferocity and great cruelty." Under Peruvian law, Van der Sloot will be tried by a judge rather than a jury, and is not eligible to be released on bail.[9] Police transported Van der Sloot on the same day from Lima's Palace of Justice in an armored truck while angry onlookers yelled and threw rotten lettuce. He was taken to Miguel Castro Castro maximum security prison and placed in a cell near the prison director's office for his own safety.[2] He is separated from the general prison population under 24-hour guard in a high-security cell block where the only other inmate is alleged Colombian hit man Hugo Trujillo Ospina.[92] Van der Sloot offered to disclose the location of Holloway's body in exchange for transfer to an Aruban prison because of fear for his own safety in Miguel Castro Castro prison.[90] Peruvian president Alan García Pérez said that Van der Sloot would have to stand trial for the homicide before any extradition request would be considered.[76] He also stated that Van der Sloot will serve his prison sentence in Peru. There is no treaty for the transfer of prisoners between Peru and the Netherlands.[90]

Public reaction

Public outcry in Peru has been fueled by local media, which labeled Van der Sloot a "monster," "serial killer," and "psychopath." The coverage of this controversy highlighted cases of other women dying at the hands of foreigners.[87] Peruvian and Colombian newspapers published sensationalist articles about the investigation of the disappearance of two young women who frequented casinos during Van der Sloot's stay in at least two Bogota hotels from May 6 to 14, 2010, prior to entering Peru.[94][95] However, the Administrative Department of Security of Colombia do not consider Van der Sloot a suspect as they believe his presence in Bogota was merely in transit to Peru.[96] Dutch daily newspaper Trouw warned that the overwhelming pressure on authorities of Van der Sloot's presumed guilt risked turning the case into a show trial.[97] The Dutch consulate told Peruvian authorities that it was concerned how Van der Sloot was being treated and presented to the media.[63]
