Security Guards Released

From NewsMax and MSNBC

Officials who confirmed Monday's release of Antonius "Mickey" John, 30, and Abraham Jones, 28, did not offer any clues to solving the mystery of Holloway's disappearance on the Dutch Caribbean island during a student trip. The release of Antonius "Mickey" John, 30, and Abraham Jones, 28, came a day after Natalee's mother said she believed the security guards were innocent and should be released.

On June 14 Mickey John goes on Scarborough Country and states "Well, he said the story that Natalee had been dropped off at the Holiday Inn was all made up. He said the girl has never been dropped off at the Holiday Inn.
He said (INAUDIBLE) took the girl from Carlos ‘n Charlie‘s, drove to the lighthouse. He, Deepak, was driving the car. His brother was sitting next to him in the front. Natalee was sitting in the back seat, behind Deepak. And the Dutch guy was sitting in the back seat behind his brother. They drove to the lighthouse. He didn‘t say to me what took place at the lighthouse. But he said, on his way back, they dropped the Dutch guy off and Natalee close to the Marriott Hotel. He went home. He went online on his computer. And he said, like an hour after, the Dutch guy sent him an e-mail, like a message on his telephone, on his cell phone, saying that, when he got home, he would communicate with him online also. So, apparently, the Dutch guy was still out when he sent him the message." He was not asked any further questions.

On June 29, he was interviewed by Greta van Susteren again. He told Greta, "Deepak came, and he introduced himself as Deepak. And he said he was being picked up for the missing girl. I felt relief, because I know I can throw a few questions from him to see if I get something from him. ...he certainly was calling me Jamaican. He thought I was from Jamaica. So he was just talking to me freely and, you know, no problem. I spoke to him more, and I tell him, "Tell me the truth," asking, "You saw the guy on the news?" He said, "Yes." I said, "Where the guy from?" He tell me, he think from Grenada. And right away, I knew he was talking about me, because I was the only one from Grenada. So I decided to ask him a few more questions. And I said, "So you tell the guy (INAUDIBLE) what happened to the girl?" He said, "No." (INAUDIBLE) arrested on Thursday. I think a guy should be released that Friday, because, in their hearts, they know we were innocent. He said a story being made up about dropping the girl of at a Holiday Inn, was all something being made up. He, and the Dutch guy, and the Dutch guy's father, they sit and made up the story."

" I don't know who the family consists of. But I know the father was involved, according to him. They made up the story, and they say that they didn't drop the girl off, because they said they would give the police something to (INAUDIBLE) when somebody is missing in Aruba, they would find them a few days later by a crack house or with some beach bum or something.
So they made it up. But then, when push come to shove, and nothing was going on, he decided to tell his brother, "We're going to tell the truth and say exactly what took place," because he — I guess that much, he, by that time, he and the Dutch guy were saying different stories, so something wasn't going right."

"Like I told you, they say like — they were hoping that something the girl would pop up or something, a few days after. And as I said, they drop her off at the Holiday Inn talking to a black guy, security guard dressed in black clothes. Said they know, like, everybody in public knows a tourist has been missing. They would find them a few days later, by, like I said, by some crack house or with some beach bum. So they made up something hoping that she would show up a few day and then they say, "OK, it all good. There she comes."

"Well, he told me — he, all of them, sit and make up the story. He, Dutch guy, and the family. He told me they made up a story that they said they dropped the girl off at the Holiday Inn. She was talking to a black guy, security guard specific, dressed in black pants, black top." "He said family. I'm certain."

"He only said that, while he was home, he went on his computer to chat with some friend. And the Dutch guy sent him a text message on his cell phone saying that when he got home he would also chat with him online. So he said automatically this guy was still out at the time he and his brother was home. He just said — the message said that, when he got home, he would talk to him online. He didn't say anything else."

"Well, to me, he was very, very calm. He spoke very calm. When they open my door to go out and see my lawyer, and passed the front of his cell, he was looking very calm. I would call him every five minutes and say, "Deepak, are you OK?" And he would say, "Yes, I'm OK." So he was very — looked relaxed to me." "Yes, he said, "We would be out soon," but he told me the Dutch guy will remain in custody because he know he was the last — they dropped him off with the girl at the Marriott. And I think he's holding back something, the guy (INAUDIBLE) the father made up the story. He should know what took place."

"I told him. I told him it was me, the security guard."
