Sorry for the time between posts- can only post easily at night.
I would urge everyone to take what is coming out of Peru with a huge grain of salt. Peru is a third world nation, with a laughable justice system and perhaps the most brutal prisons in the world. Unfortunately, too many Americans would probably like our own country to shift in that direction.
I find it hard to believe that Joran wasn't coerced and/or tortured in some way. I would think that's standard operating procedure in their country. The idea that they wouldn't do it because "the world is watching," or something, is contradicted by the fact "the world" isn't able to witness anything they have done, or are doing, to Joran.
I find the stories about Joran supposedly offering to reveal the location of Natalee's body to be even more unbelievable than his "confession" to murdering Stephany. I have watched that coffee video again and again, and simply don't understand how people can find it incriminatnig. Weird, yes. However, as I noted, the fact that he went and got an employee to open the door just flies in the fact of any notion that a dead body was lying inside. But again, that's just my typically contrarian take on it.
