Due to recent changes on the internet, I came across new information that led me to a remarkable discovery in the disappearance case of Natalee Holloway. Based on this information, I believe I have identified the specific grave in which the remains of Natalee Holloway may be located. This was the reason I decided to contact the Dutch Public Prosecution Service (Openbaar Ministerie, OM).
Remarkably, my discovery coincided almost exactly with a new development in the Netherlands: on March 16, 2026, Beth Holloway filed a criminal complaint against Joran van der Sloot. As a result, a new investigative team was assembled. This created a timely opportunity to bring my findings directly to the attention of that new Dutch investigative team. On June 3, 2026, I submitted my tip, together with supporting documentation, to this team. I subsequently shared the same material with a limited number of directly involved attorneys and journalists.

Tip dossier:
Dear Reader,
My name is Constantia Oomen. I am a writer and independent researcher and have been involved with the Natalee Holloway and Joran van der Sloot case for many years. In addition, I published critically for years about Robbert van den Broeke, who presents himself as a psychic medium and first became controversial in 2005 after a blunder during a television broadcast hosted by Irene Moors. Through those publications, Stan P eventually came into contact with me, after which years of contact followed.
The tip at the center of this matter comes from Stan P, a former acquaintance of Joran van der Sloot. Beginning in 2008, Stan developed a relationship of trust—and later also a financial relationship—with Joran, including after Joran was imprisoned in Peru for the murder of Stephany Flores. Stan sent him money and maintained long-term contact with him, including through an iPhone that Joran used to communicate from prison.
Stan later sent me a recorded Skype conversation in which Joran, with visible discomfort, states that “there is something with St. Anna” and that Stan knows what he is talking about. In addition, Stan told me that he had previously gained access to Joran’s iPhone and, earlier, to his computer. According to Stan, he saw information that specifically referred to St. Anna Cemetery in Aruba, grave number 15, and a damaged corner of the grave. According to Stan, there was also discussion of Natalee Holloway being placed at a later date in an already existing grave, by Joran’s father and an alleged acquaintance of Joran.
For many years, this tip remained too vague to be investigated in a concrete manner. That changed recently when the graves at St. Anna Cemetery became digitally accessible, including photographs. This allowed me to map all graves bearing the number 15. There turned out to be a total of 31. This may explain why the tip remained without a concrete follow-up for so many years: only recently did it become clear to me how many number 15 graves actually exist.
I then examined which of these “number 15” graves could realistically be relevant based on the original timeline of Natalee Holloway’s disappearance in May 2005. Graves that only came into use after June 2005 could logically be excluded. Through this process of elimination, a much smaller group of possible candidates remained (one very strong candidate and three weaker, but not entirely excludable, candidates).
Ultimately, one specific grave emerged that, in my opinion, corresponds most closely to the original description contained in the tip. It concerns the grave of █████████ (name redacted), deceased in █████████ (date and age at death redacted). In my opinion, the other characteristics of the grave also correspond strikingly with the original description.
On Thursday, May 28, 2026, a resident of Aruba showed me current footage of St. Anna Cemetery during a live WhatsApp video call, including the grave in question and its immediate surroundings. I possess documentation of this conversation and footage, which I have included here.
I respectfully request that this information and documentation be submitted for review to the team involved in the recent Dutch criminal complaint filed by Beth Holloway concerning Joran van der Sloot.
Sincerely,
Constantia Oomen

- Footage from May 28, 2026, recorded by a contact person in Aruba
Two unedited screen recordings of a live WhatsApp video conversation from May 28, 2026, with a resident of Aruba, who showed me St. Anna Cemetery and the grave in question on location. During the first few seconds of the recording, I am briefly visible myself because I had not yet discovered how to move my own image out of view. The absence of audio is caused by the limitations of WhatsApp/iPhone screen recording. The unedited videos are included as supplementary documentation of the current situation on site.
The footage shows that the grave is intact, that open graves are present, and that parts of the cemetery are bordered by low walls, making the cemetery appear relatively accessible even outside the regular entrance gates.

The original dossier contains the elimination process for all graves relevant to this investigation that contain the number 15. In this public version, that section has been redacted for privacy and investigative reasons.

(elimination process redacted)
The elimination process considered whether a grave fits within the timeline of Natalee Holloway’s disappearance in May 2005, the physical characteristics and accessibility of the grave, and whether visible features correspond with the original description contained in the tip, including damage to one corner of the grave.
The full analysis, supporting documentation, and conclusions have not been made public for privacy and investigative reasons.

Personal Note
I would like to emphasize that every missing-person case is equally important. My contact person, who prefers to be referred to as ‘the lady in Aruba’, mentioned, for example, Jose Manuel Vicenzo Tromp (born on January 31, 1977), who has been missing in Aruba since November 27, 2007.
Should this blog contribute to renewed attention for unresolved cases in Aruba, I sincerely hope that his case will not be forgotten either.
