No Justice for U.S. Teen in Aruba

It's incredible that this matter hasn't been resolved before now. The Aruban courts have released the men likely responsible for the murder of the teen. These men have admitted to police to drugging and raping the girl. Yet they are free. I wouldn't recommend that anyone travel there anytime soon. According to investigators, it is a common practice to drug and rape young female tourists just before they are to return to there homes. This makes the chance of reporting the incident and having the girl's departure delayed, much less likely. In this case they even have the bartender's statement that he in fact put the drugs in the girls drink and that they did this very frequently. Is this the kind of place that you would want to send one of your kids, much less go there with them.
