re: Update page 5: Natalie Holloway's remains believed to be found

That's the way I understand it.

Whatever happened to Jug Twitt

Long gone after Beth started screwing John Ramsey.

I watched the first installment. Dave Holloway is very likable and I have even more sympathy for he and Beth.

I was surprised to hear the new witness say the body was dug up, cremated by a cooperative funeral home and the ashes sprinkled in the sea. If true, presumably not many bones were found in the alleged burial spot.

Dave is a really nice guy and is not one to seek the limelight. He was my parents' State Farm agent for years including during this tragedy. To insinuate that he is doing this for money is a crock of horse shite.

---

Do you think he's doing this on TV for money to help pay for the investigation they did when they got the new information? That's what I think because it had to be pretty expensive to go back and forth to Aruba and also dig around there again. I'm not saying this was for profit, but to help with the costs to pursue the new info.

If he's not a guy to seek the limelight, what other reason would there be to have a national documentary series following this investigation? As I said earlier, I'd sell my soul if it meant finding out what happened to my child and getting the money to do it.

Didn't a judge in Aruba state that it wasn't human bones which were found?

---

I haven't heard or read anything about that. Her father has been on TV on at least one network and maybe more stating that the bones most recently found in the area pointed out by the informant have been found to be human and they should have DNA results in the next 30 days.

One thing that was curious, though, in the show was the guy Dave spoke with said something about them going back and digging up her body, having a cooperating funeral home cremate her and spreading her ashes in the ocean. I don't know if they just found a few little leftover bones where she was allegedly initially buried or the cremation story was bunk and they found the full body of bones. I assume that will be addressed as the show goes on. I haven't really looked up any articles to see if that's addressed.

They already debunked this. They found animal bones. News they found her body was all for the TV show. They didn't find her and never will. This show is all about the $$$

---

Kind of sick, but yes I agree. Unless the dad is truly using the tv $ to continue funding his investigation then you could understand him playing along with the bs storyline (sort of).

quote:

---

I don't know the answer to those questions but I think is pretty messed up that the Dad has made a television series out of the search for his daughters remains. That's pretty f'n pathetic.

---

They financed his investigation. It was a way to continually pay to search for her.

I'm just floored that he's saying the remains found are human and the Aruba prosecutor is saying remains found were animal. Then, there's the issue of getting them to the US to be tested. Did they just pick them up and ship them in the mail? This is crazy stuff.

With how shoddy the initial investigation went, I'd be hesitant to turn over any new evidence to the authorities either. Those cops and investigators were puppets on a string to Vandersloot judge.
