Confession
On February 1, 2008, the Dutch media released a report indicating that Joran van der Sloot had confessed to his involvement in the disappearance of the high school senior. The Dutch broadcast included excerpts from footage recorded from hidden cameras and microphones in the vehicle of a certain Patrick van der Eem.
Having gained Joran’s confidence, the Dutch businessmen inquired about Natalee while the two of them drove around while smoking marijuana.
