So she deserved to die because she had some fun on a tropical island?
Yes, thank you. Imagine if we put as much effort into teaching boys not to rape and abuse girls as we do teaching girls how not to get raped and abused.Anonymous wrote:Women are victims of abuse, rape, murder, etc. at the hands of men in astounding numbers every day across the world. You don't have to be drunk to be a victim. Men will do these things regardless. Look at yourselves.

PP didn't say Natalie deserved to die. Nobody is blaming the victim for her awful demise. However, someone didn't care if she deserved it or not. He took advantage of her fun-on-a-tropical-island condition. He didn't get the message about how rude and mean it is to do that. Maybe he got the message and just ignored it.
So if you decide to have fun by getting drunk, please remember the gamble you are taking. Not all people are nice and mannerly; some may not play fair.

Body was never found because I don't think until the US was involved - too late - it was really searched for.
All the dots lined up to that Dutch rich kid, and then he ended up doing it again - got caught on video going into a young woman's hotel room, she died in there, got caught coming out. He is in prison for life - and not a great prison from what I understand. Also his dad had died so his influence couldn't help him at that point.
Joran has a wife or girlfriend. He has a young child. The jail allows sex.
He also got critically injured in a knife fight while there. But please plan your second honeymoon in a jail in Peru, for the sex and all.

I think any doubt of his guilt was removed when he killed Flores. His father and Aruban authorities are partially responsible for her death, IMO. If they didn't try to protect van der Sloot, that woman would still be alive.

No one is blaming the victim. It's not blaming to say that you're probably safer if sober and not drunk. That's true in all kinds of circumstances, unless you can completely trust the person(s) you're hanging out with.
