Natalee Holloway: A Case That Captivated The Nation

A New Witness?

Shocking new evidence arose in 2015 after a totally unknown witness came forward. A man named Jurrien de Jong claimed that he witnessed what happened that fateful night ten years previous. He said that Joran carried Natalee’s body into a locked construction site. The witness claimed that he didn’t come forward sooner because he had been involved in an illegal drug trade. Natalee’s father asked the Aruban authorities to investigate.

He alleged that the construction site was what is now the Marriott Hotel’s Spyglass Tower. The authorities later released a statement claiming that no construction was taking place where Jurrien claimed. However, according to satellite images from Google Earth from the time of Natalee’s disappearance seems to show what looks like a construction site. Natalee’s father also claimed to remember construction being there when he arrived in Aruba after Natalee when missing.
