Natalee Holloway: A Case That Captivated The Nation

The Tragic Story of Robyn Gardner

Another American woman went missing in the Caribbean six years later. 35-year old Robyn Gardner of Maryland traveled to Aruba in 2011, with a man she met online. Gary Giordano, was 50 years old at the time and living in Washington D.C. He met Gardner on Adult Friend Finder, a swinger’s website, in late July 2011 and the two decided to go on vacation together for two months, after Gardner had recently lost her job.

They were last seen together on August 2, 2011 at the Rum Reef Bar & Grill. Security footage captured Robyn Gardner and Giordano leaving the bar together. Two hours later it again captures Giordano on film, but Gardner is missing.
