CATHERINE CRIER INTERVIEWS TJ WARD AND DAVID WRIGHT ON NATALEE DISAPPEARANCE

Investigator, TJ Ward and Interview with David Wright
on Joran Van Der Slut and Natalee

JORAN'S QUOTE

"Obviously she was drunk. I had stuff to drink too. She wanted to go with me. I wanted to go with her. I was totally consensual."

Here is the following account of the Court TV interview:

CC: TJ, your thoughts about the interview?

TJ: Well, we still think that something happened to her, she passed out. Even according to Beth when she was on Dr. Phil the information from Joran that something happened, that she was in and out, in and out. We think something did happen to her and she apparently had a passed out had a heart attack, stopped breathing. We still believe that Paul Van der Sloot was called and he has a direct involvement with Natalee Holloway’s disappearance.

CC: You have insinuated, implied, talked about in conversation that you think Paul Van der Sloot had something to do with her disappearance. Possibly the removal of the body, even removing her from the island. What are your thoughts on that?

TJ: There is a possibility, things we are looking into. We just think right now that Paul Van der Sloot and some information that we are following right now that Paul Van der Sloot was directly involved with the disappearance and cover up of Natalee Holloway’s disappearance.

If you remember, that the story that was brought out on Dr. Phil, by Beth and the info she had from the police reports it always goes up to Joran being there, Deepak saying lets leave get rid of her. But there is never any final conclusion as to what happened to her after that and what caused her disappearance. Some of the information that we have is that Paul Van der Sloot said no body, no case. We have gathered information and are still receiving information and are following up on it. We are doing this pro bono, and as I told Beth when we got involved if she will trust us, we will find Natalee.

CC: From the info you have, do you think she is dead, buried on the island, buried at sea or taken off the island and moved to another country?

TJ: Some of this information we have, we are not going to expose right now. I can tell you that from the information we have, Paul Van der Sloot was directly involved with the disappearance of Natalee Holloway.

CC: What are your thoughts right now as to the disposal of the body?

TJ: From all the information we have gathered, even when I was in Aruba. Every place has been searched, every place that could have been hidden. We know there are lots of nooks and crannies that them being natives of the island could put her. But, information that we have right we believe in the removal or disappearance of NH. I can’t elaborate with that, because it is very important that it be kept confidential at this time.

CC: Do the Aruban authorities have this information?

TJ: No, but if we find information that will lead us to where she is we will turn it over to the LE and the FBI.

CC: I understand you have been following Joran around Holland, what have you found out?

David Wright: National Enquirer

We have been keeping tabs on Joran for a couple of weeks in Arnhem. He is here living with his father outside a small town outside the city of Arnhem and attending business school. We have learned that the Aruban police have been alerted to a possible attempt to kill him. They were concerned enough to alert their counterparts in Holland.

CC: Do we think it is some irate individual that has been following the case? What kind of info do we have?

DW: There are people angry enough in Aruba and the United States to want him dead. In fact, I was at the prison the day he was released. It was quite obvious the day he was released. I saw them sweeping several houses overlooking the prison for weapons.

CC: Does this involve the Kalpoe brothers as well?

DW: No, I think this is centered on Joran.

CC: What kind of information on Joran, I understand he is going to school but having a good time as well?

DW: Yes, I think he is. Doesn’t seem to have changed his ways. He is hitting the bars sometimes till the early hours. He is cutting classes, and he is certainly chasing girls.

CC: He is living with his father, so what kind of schedule does he seem to be keeping? What is PVDS doing?

DV: His father brings him to school most mornings, sometimes he goes home on the train. They have spent a lot of time attending soccer matches around Europe.
They have been to England, are planning a trip to Macedonia.
His father certainly doesn’t seem to be keeping a tight rein on him.

CC: What about the people in the town where he is living? Do they seem to know much about the story?

DV: No I don’t think they do.Certainly his classmates at school certainly know his history. He has made no attempt to hide it. I don’t think that anyone in the little town where he is living would have a clue about his background.

CC: What are your thoughts about him doing the interview with Current Affair? He certainly doesn’t seem to be hiding it, he seems to be going public.

DV: He was caught by that TV team. He is a clever kid and I think he used it to his advantage and turned it into a calculated PR event on his part.

CC: You described trips to England and planning one to Macedonia. There don’t seem to be any restrictions on him anywhere in and out of the Netherlands?
