Missing Aruba Woman an Escort?

Why does it make any difference if she was or wasn't? Are you implying that she might deserve whatever she gets if she was hooking, but wouldn't if she was engaged in a more "honourable" activity? If so, that's pretty despicable.

No, what happened to her was tragic and deplorable under any circumstances. What I find interesting is the way the media dance around the matter of two unrelated persons traveling together to Aruba. We are required to do a lot of "reading between the lines" here. Bet even the inept Aruba police have figured this one out.

When Natalee Holloway disappeared, it was teenager + alcohol + arrogance = stupid.

What happened with this woman was an indictment of a social safety net that broke down with the formulation of the nuclear family. Once upon a time, extended families lived together and females were looked after. When the nuclear family was created at the end of World War 2, the social safety net started to break down. Today, the nuclear family has broken down to the point where there is no social safety net at all. People live alone and are expected to use their best judgement at all times. This woman abandoned her common sense altogether and let her little head do all the thinking. Didn't work out for her, did it ?

The reason that it's relevant is that if they can't tie him directly to her disappearance, then maybe they (or the U.S.) could nail him for trafficking.

Otto22, you are a cynic. You may be right, but you're still a cynic.
