Huffpost - LIMA, Peru — Joran van der Sloot said he is innocent but acknowledged having met Stephany Flores at a Lima casino. Van der Sloot was to be handed over to Peruvian police at the border of the two countries Friday afternoon. He also remains the prime suspect in the 2005 disappearance of Alabama teen Natalee Holloway on the Dutch Caribbean island of Aruba. Flores was killed five years to the day after Holloway disappeared. Van der Sloot, who was seen on video with Flores prior to her death, fled Peru on Monday, but was captured three days later. Flores was found dead late Tuesday in the Lima hotel room where van der Sloot had been staying before he left the country. She had a broken neck. She was fully clothed, with multiple bruises and scratches on her body, but there were no signs she had been sexually assaulted. Peruvian police say they have video of van der Sloot and Flores together in the casino and witnesses who saw the two enter the Dutchman's hotel room.
Also Thursday, van der Sloot was charged in Alabama with trying to extort $250,000 in return for revealing the location of Holloway's body and describing the circumstances of her death. Federal prosecutors did not say who was allegedly extorted, but filed a sworn statement saying that van der Sloot received a partial payment of $15,000 wired to a Netherlands bank. Holloway was an 18-year-old who was celebrating her high school graduation on Aruba when she disappeared May 30, 2005. Van der Sloot told investigators he left her on a beach, drunk. That's the last anyone saw of her. Van der Sloot was twice arrested in her disappearance – and twice released for insufficient evidence.
On May 14, Van der Sloot arrived in Peru on a flight from Colombia and checked into the room where Flores' body was later found, Gen. Guardia said. Van der Sloot was in Peru for a poker tournament and it appears he and Flores met Saturday evening at Atlantic City, the Lima casino hosting the tourney, Guardia said. The police chief said Flores was killed between 5 a.m. Sunday, when the victim and suspect were seen entering his room by a hotel employee, and about 8:45 a.m., when two people saw van der Sloot leave.
The Holloway case has followed many twists and turns. Two years ago, a Dutch television crime reporter captured hidden-camera footage of van der Sloot saying he was with Holloway when she collapsed on a beach from being drunk. He said he believed she was dead and asked a friend to dump her body in the sea. Judges subsequently refused to arrest van der Sloot on the basis of the tape. The journalist, Peter de Vries, reported later in 2008 that he had documented van der Sloot recruiting Thai women in Bangkok for sex work in the Netherlands.
What is this dude's deal? Why does he love killing chicks so much? I don't get it. Chicks are awesome and generally good to have around for cooking, and cleaning, and for banging. But for some reason this a-hole keeps ruining the odds for everyone else by knocking them off left and right. I mean you've got the moves to get them in your hotel room or drunk on the beach but instead of closing the deal, you decided to snap their necks and hide the bodies somewhere? That's weird. Next time you should try just sleeping with them and then go satisfy your blood lust by killing some old hobo instead. But hey, what do I know about the killing chicks game? Maybe you got it all figured out. You got away with killing Natalee Holloway even after you confessed to it on camera and I wouldn't doubt that your "she was about to go down on me and then just died" excuse will play in court with this new one too. Good luck bro.
