Natalee Holloway: A Case That Captivated The Nation

A Parent’s Worst Nightmare

As soon as Natalee’s parents received word that she was missing, they boarded a plane to Aruba. Meanwhile, her friends had arrived back in the United States and were gathering at the Holloways’ home. They reached out to her mom, Beth, and told her about what happened that fateful night.

The one thing everyone agreed on is that the last person Natalee was seen with was the young man Joran Van Der Sloot. When Beth arrived in Aruba, she tracked down the Van Der Sloot residence. Shockingly, the family refused to speak with her. She shouted outside of the home, but they still ignored her and she ultimately left.
