What Did Joran Van Der Sloot Do to Natalee Holloway?

The tragic case of Natalee Holloway has finally been solved after what seemed like a lifetime. The prime suspect, Joran Van Der Sloot, confessed that he murdered the 18-year-old woman in 2005 and got rid of the body. Over the years, Der Sloot made conflicting statements about his involvement in the incident. Once, he even claimed that he had sold Holloway into sexual slavery, but soon retracted his statement.

Upon the request of Natalee’s father, Natalee Holloway was declared dead in 2012. However, on October 18, 2023, Joran Van Der Sloot came clean about his involvement in the crime. The victim suffered blunt force trauma. The convict had smashed a cinder block on her head when she rejected his sexual advances.

How did Natalee Holloway die?

Natalee Ann Holloway was a resident of Mountain Brook, Alabama. After she graduated from high school, she took a trip to Aruba, a country located in the Caribbean Sea. She was scheduled to return home by a flight on May 30, 2005, but failed to show up at the airport. The last time she was seen alive was on the same day. She was seen leaving a bar with Joran Van Der Sloot, a Dutchman.

This month, the convict revealed that he indeed murdered the 18-year-old. He said that he and Holloway had gone to the beach where they lay on the sand and began making out. Der Sloot tried to get more intimate with her but she was not interested. When he began forcing himself on her, she kneed him in his crotch. In a rage, the man found a cinder block that was lying nearby and smashed it on her head. It was dark but he sensed that Holloway’s face had been destroyed and she was dead.

A scared Joran Van Der Sloot didn’t know what to do, so he pushed her corpse into the sea. Her remains were never found.
