Van der Sloot Wants $1M for Jail Interview

(The New York Post) - Joran van der Sloot, the Dutch man accused of murdering a woman in Peru and who is still the main suspect in the disappearance of American Natalee Holloway in Aruba five years ago, is asking $1 million to do a TV interview from jail, according to reports cited Wednesday in the New York Post.
Van der Sloot is apparently trying to raise money to pay lawyers for his upcoming murder trial in Peru, where he has been held without bail for the May 30 killing of Stephany Flores, a girl he met in a local casino.
The 22-year-old van der Sloot is said to be looking for a $1 million fee from the same Dutch TV production company, Global Star, that paid his mother a six-figure fee for a TV interview that was shown on ABC last week.
"It's a horrid thing to admit, but he could be right," one TV exec told the website popeater.com, which broke the story Tuesday.
"An interview with him from behind bars would certainly get huge ratings," the exec said.
"And when you think how much money the cast of 'Friends' got per half-hour episode, $1 million for van der Sloot could be considered a bargain."
News officials at the major networks said Tuesday that they were not aware that van der Sloot was looking for a big payday before agreeing to an interview -- suggesting that no deal was yet made between van der Sloot and the Dutch producers.

I haven't seen any outrage in this case as it was when Beth and Dave were able to get pennies to compensate for their money spent.
The VDS don't do it in small fashion it appears. Now the tables are turning and I hope all those that cried foul at the Holloways see the irony.
