The extradition of Joran van der Sloot, the prime suspect in Natalee Holloway’s disappearance, is more than a decade in the making.
The Dutchman is currently serving a 28-year murder sentence in Peru in the death of Stephany Flores, a 21-year-old college student. She was murdered exactly five years after Holloway, a Mountain Brook native, was last seen alive in Aruba with van der Sloot. She was on a high school graduation trip when she disappeared.
“It is further part of the scheme and artifice that after receiving the sum of $10,000 in cash from Mr. Kelly and assurances that Beth Holloway would immediately wire transfer an additional sum of $15,000 into his bank account, the defendant would and did accompany Mr. Kelly to a specific location in Aruba, and did identify that location as the site where Natalee Holloway’s remains were buried. This information, as the defendant knew, was false,” according to the indictment.
“Peru will negotiate with the State Department here and the Department of Justice of how they will transport, maybe the US Marshals will go get him or maybe they meet in some international terminal somewhere along the way, and the Marshals will walk him right into a Birmingham federal courthouse where he will be arraigned,” said Town.
