How could she write that 'one American tourist vs. Aruba's economy' without everyone knowing she is anit-American! That doesn't deserve any take on her explanation as far as I am concerned.

Nowhere was there any feeling for Natalie or the family. The letter was full of nothing but begrudged $$$ and condemnation for a young girl on a high school trip.

I don't care whether she was drinking or even stripping (which she wasn't). Doesn't Ms. Heemster know that the only important take is Natalie is probably dead at the hands of someone else. She needs to take a good look at her very obvious motives.

I salute the Twittys and the Holloways and all the other wonderful people in the USA and Aruba who have spent their time and money to help locate this beautiful person. I am sure they will find the truth. It is comforting to know there are people like them who won't give up.

I do have one question for Ms Hester Heemster: If Natalie did come back to the hotel room and died of an overdose, who, what, when and how did her body go missing?
