Holloway Remains Body Found

Holloway Remains Body Found, A Pennsylvania couple believes an underwater snapshot they took off the coast of Aruba reveals human remains on the ocean floor that could be those of Natalee Holloway.

The photo taken by John and Patti Muldowney of Manheim last fall was turned over to the FBI, because John Muldowney says he has a gut feeling it’s the missing Alabama honor student who disappeared in Aruba nearly five years ago.

“We did receive the photo, and it was sent to the lead agent down in Miami who handles that area in the Caribbean,” Special Agent Frank Burton Jr., a spokesman for the FBI’s field office in Philadelphia.

However, it’s a mystery as to what happened to the photo after that.

The Miami office and the FBI’s legal attache in Barbados, which has control over the Aruba area, both told the newspaper they have no record of getting it.

Patti Muldowney took the shot while snorkeling near the Caribbean island. Only later did the couple notice one photo shows what could be a human corpse or skeleton..

“It just seems so strange that that girl never showed up, and here we are right off the shoreline, right where she disappeared, and there’s a body lying there,” John Muldowney, 78, told the newspaper.

A teen at the time, Joran van der Sloot 22, was last seen with Holloway before her disappearance in 2005 while on her high school’s graduation trip. He has since gave various confessions as to what happened to her, but prosecutors in Aruba say they lack evidence to charge Van der Sloot.
