Joran van der Sloot Full Confession on Killing Natalee Holloway, Crushing Face with Cinder Block – Crime Online

An audio confession has been released after Dutch national Joran van der Sloot admitted to killing 18-year-old Natalee Holloway in 2005.

As CrimeOnline previously reported, van der Sloot, 36, received a 20-year sentence on exortion and wire fraud charges Wednesday at the Hugo L. Black Federal Courthouse in Birmingham, Alabama. The 20-year sentence was offered as a plea deal, contingent on the defendant admitting that he killed Holloway and describe what happened to her.

Holloway vanished in Aruba in 2005 after traveling with friends for vacation, following high school graduation. Her remains have never been found.

Court documents indicate that Holloway and van der Sloot were dropped off near a Marriott, on a beach in Aruba, on the night she vanished. The defendant said he wanted to have sex with Holloway, but Holloway rejected his advances.

“She asked me to go back to her hotel but I was just trying to get dropped off a little bit further from her hotel so we could, uh, walk back to her hotel and I might get a chance to still be with her,” van der Sloot said.

“I keep feeling her up either way. She ends up kneeing me in the crotch. When she knees me in the crotch, I get up and I kick her extremely hard in the face. She’s lying down unconscious, possibly even dead, but definitely unconscious. And I see right next to her there’s a huge cinder block laying on the beach.

“I take this and I smash her head in with it completely. Her face basically collapses in. Even though it’s dark, I can see her face is collapsed in.”

Van der Sloot says the girl’s “face is collapsed in.”

The defendant, who’s serving a sentence for another woman’s death at a Peru prison, arrived in Birmingham in July to face charges related to the extortion of Natalee’s family. The extradition stems from claims that van der Sloot bilked Beth out of $25,100.

Beth paid van der Sloot in 2010 for details about the location of her daughter’s remains, but van der Sloot gave false information and failed to honor his promise, which led to a U.S. grand jury indicting him on extortion and wire fraud charges.

“I paid my daughter’s killer money. That’s shocking. I don’t think anyone can really wrap their mind around what that means,” Beth Holloway said Wednesday morning while addressing the court.

“By the way you look like hell Joran. I do not see how you’re gonna make it….You are a killer and I want you to remember that every time that jail door slams.”

Throughout the years, van der Sloot has given multiple inconsistent and false accounts about how he hid Holloway’s remains. However, on Wednesday the Holloways stated they now believe his latest confession is truthful, including his description of disposing the body.

“Afterwards I don’t exactly know what, you know — I’m scared. I don’t know what to do,” van der Sloot continued in his confession. “I decide to take her and put her into the ocean. So I grab her and I half pull, half walk with her into the ocean. I push her off. I walk up to about my knees into the ocean and I push her off into the sea.”

“After that, I get out. I walk home.”
