The father of Natalee Holloway, the American woman
who vanished in Aruba 12 years ago, revealed Wednesday that he and an
investigator made a shocking discovery behind a house: human remains.
Dave Holloway and investigator T.J. Ward said on NBC's “Today” that
following a renewed 18-month probe, the remains will be DNA-tested to
see if they are a match with the Alabama 18-year-old who disappeared
while on a graduation trip in 2005.
The DNA test will take several weeks to a month.This undated family photo originally released by Marcia Twitty shows Natalee Holloway of Mountain Brook, Ala. (AP)
No one has ever been charged in her disappearance.
Joran van der Sloot, a Dutch man the teen was last seen with outside a bar, is serving a 28-year sentence in a Peru jail for killing business student Stephany Flores — a murder that came five years to the day after Natalee’s disappearance
