ABC to Air Joran van der Sloot Confession Video

Dutch crime reporter Peter de Vries came forward with the new evidence. The confession was obtained using hidden cameras and a friend of van der Sloot’s, Patrick van der Eem. Van der Eem was able to get van der Sloot to confess multiple times.

The footage shows van der Sloot, 20, describing how he and 18-year-old Holloway were sitting on the beach kissing when suddenly she began shaking and slumped over. “Suddenly she started shaking and then she didn’t say anything,” van der Sloot tells van der Eem. “I would never murder the girl.”

He says he called a friend, who he referred to as “Daury,” to dispose of Holloway’s body. Van der Sloot says Daury used his boat to dump the body at sea. When asked if he was sure she was dead and not “in a coma,” van der Sloot said he wasn’t. The footage aired in the Netherlands Sunday.

Van der Sloot now claims he was lying. “I just told van der Eem what he wanted to hear,” he explains.

Holloway went missing from Aruba in May 2005 while on a senior trip with classmates. She was last seen leaving a nightclub with van der Sloot and Satish and Deepak Kalpoe. All three were previously named suspects in the case but were released due to insufficient evidence.

Holloway’s mother, Beth Twitty, tells ABC that after seeing the tape, “There is no one who can walk away from this believing that he is innocent.”

Van der Sloot’s attorney, Joe Tacopina, says the footage is “not a confession” and insists the statements he made were not true. “What he says is she died, he panicked and called a friend from a pay phone, which by the way is disproved because the Aruban Coast Guard has already looked at that pay phone. There’s no such calls. They have the records,” said Tacopina.

Prosecutors have reopened the investigation. It is unclear if or when van der Sloot will be arrested.
