James Hogan, U.S. Vice Consul Missing in Curacao, Last Seen Taking Midnight Walk a Week Ago
Hogan's Bloody Clothes, Trail of Blood and Cellphone Found
Based on DNA testing, the Dutch Forensic Institute (NFI) confirmed that the blood on the found clothing, the clothing itself, and the blood trails on the soil at the peninsula of the Caracas Bay, belongs to Hogan. Lt. Commander John Daniels said a U.S. Navy ship on a routine port visit to Curacao dispatched a helicopter shortly after Hogan's disappearance to search the beach, ocean and a nearby waterway, but crews did not find anything. It is amazing that this story has flown under the mainstream media radar. You will recall the absolute horrendous handling of the disappearance of teenager Natalee Holloway in 2005, on the smaller island of Aruba. This case was never solved despite an alleged confession by Joran Vander Sloot caught on tape.
U.S. State Department records show that Hogan, who arrived on the island August 2008 for a two-year assignment, had a legal residence in Florida, but no city or town is listed. He completed junior foreign service officer training in 2005 and spent two years as a consular officer in Gabarone, Botswana.

Post a CommentI am sorry two say Janet but i lost a friend and a family member in Florida and one in Louisiana, I did not condem a entire country for the mistakes of a few. Whats smug? The fact that you don't know that the US state dep., F.B.I. and other U.S. dep all worked on the Hollowway case but yet its the fault of Aruba that someone Not LOCAL to the Antilles killed that girl. thats smug.
Antillan -- Seems to me the ineptitude of the Aruban authorities wasn't the fault of the American media. Please get a grip. If your loved one was killed in the United States of America you wouldn't be taking such a smug position.
Please i am local do us all a favor and don't start making this into a media circus who is out to villify the Island. Like the American media did with Aruba.
