Joran van der Sloot, the Dutchman who is suspected in the 2005 killing of American Natalee Holloway, has confessed to murdering Stephany Flores in Peru. According to an Advocate.com item, Flores was reportedly a lesbian.
van der Sloot, 22, was arrested June 3 in Chile and is in a Peruvian jail. He then confessed to slaying Flores, 21, after they returned to a hotel room together.
Former FBI agent Brad Garrett told ABC News that hotel-surveillance footage showed that, regarding Flores, "This may be a new experience for her to go to a hotel room with somebody she met just a few hours later. It also may play into her own issues with sexual identity problems." Garrett then speculated that Flores may have been killed after rejecting van der Sloot's sexual advances.
Stephanie Jimenez, Flores' former girlfriend, said that Flores was struggling with her own sexual orientation because of her disapproving parents, according to LezGetReal.com . Flores was buried June 7. |
