## Resource

In May 2005, Natalee Holloway vanished during her senior trip to Aruba—a vacation that was supposed to be all beaches, pina coladas, and flip-flops, not one of the most infamous missing persons cases in modern history. What followed was a media circus complete with suspects changing their stories more often than tourists reapply sunscreen, wild theories, and years of unanswered questions. In this episode of Twisted and Mysterious , we dig into the last known hours of Natalee’s life, Joran van der Sloot’s endless lies and confessions-that-weren’t, and the case’s strange place in both true crime history and pop culture. Equal parts tragic and baffling, this is a story that still grips people two decades later. Thank you for listening!
