Information from other BB's (tripadvisors.com visitaruba.com) said that her family has arrived in Aruba and put out a plea for their daughter Natalee's (age 18)safe return on t.v. As of today her story has been published in all of the local Arubian papers. Natalee left Carlo's & Charlies Monday morning at 1:00 with a man who misled her to believe he was a Dutch tourist. This man has been questioned by police and is known as a local drug dealer. The postings said he did not cooperate in the interrigation. The FBI is also involved in the case. They are hoping the girl is still in Aruba and has not been taken to Venezuela.
There was another kidnapping of two "local" sisters on May 14, 2005. The police did find them before they were sent to Venezuela and this is giving some hope that Natalie will also be found.
