Natalee Holloway's Murderer, Joran van der Sloot, Returns to Peru After Confession and US Extradition

Van der Sloot to serve 20-year US sentence concurrently with Peru term, amid extortion revelations and brutal murder confession shedding light on Holloway's 2005 disappearance.

Joran van der Sloot, the confessed murderer of Natalee Holloway, has been extradited back to Peru to serve out the remainder of his prison sentence for a separate murder charge, after confessing to Holloway's murder and admitting to efforts to extort money from her family.
In a recent interview with his attorney, van der Sloot detailed the brutal murder and revealed he disposed of Holloway's body in the sea after she refused his advances.
As part of a plea deal, van der Sloot was required to reveal all information about Natalee Holloway's disappearance and underwent a polygraph test in exchange for a 20-year sentence.
Additionally, van der Sloot was charged in the U.S. for seeking $250,000 in exchange for the location of Holloway's remains, which will run concurrently with his Peru sentence for the murder of 21-year-old Stephany Flores.
Despite the painful revelations, the Holloway family's spokesperson noted that the confession offered much-needed closure for the family who had spent the past two decades seeking the truth of Natalee's fate.
