Aug. 23, 2005 At first, Beth Holloway Twitty was a sympathetic figure, who wouldn't shed tears for a mother whose daughter disappears in a foreign country? Initially we forgave her sometimes strident tone in referring to the Aruban government, because after all, her great personal tragedy, was clouding her judgement. But enough is enough! Beth Holloway is becoming the personification of the "Ugly American", the Holloway/Twitty clan is in a foreign country with foreign laws. No amount of Beth Holloway histrionics should be able to influence Aruban law. Is it not enough for Beth that the island has been turned upside down in the search for her daughter? Is she planning to stay until Aruba's economy is completely devastated? Beth Holloway should pack up her makeup, return to America, and leave the case in the fine hands of the Aruban judicial system. Everyday there are hundreds of parents who suffer the personal tragedy of having their son or daughter murdered, there are not enough cable stations in the galaxy to devote saturation coverage to each of these personal tragedies. Beth Holloway Twitty should respect the memory of her daughter, grieve in private, and leave the dramatics to the professional soap opera actors. What is Beth Holloway accomplishing by remaining in Aruba? Does she really think the Aruban government needs prodding to investigate the death of her daughter? The Natalee Holloway disappearance has been a public relations nightmare for Aruban officials, they are doing everything within their power to solve this mystery. Beth Holloway Twitty has supplied the media with footage of her daughter practicing her cheerleader routines. The cable news outlets are delighted with these offerings, they incessantly run these clips of Natalee, the same way that movie studios feature sexy young women in their trailers to lure customers into theatres. Beth has participated in the exploitation of her daughter. By remaining in Aruba, Beth is doing absolutely nothing to aid the search for her daughter. The only thing she has accomplished is to become a "reality type celebrity". Hear Beth share her vast legal expertise with Geraldo Rivera, see Beth conjure up tears for the sake of Greta Van Susteren's ratings, it's Beth Holloway Twitty 24/7 on FOX News. The inescapable fact is that Natalee Holloway is almost certainly dead, her murderer may never be found, and Beth Holloway should begin rebuilding her life by returning home. ------------ About the author: Robert Paul Reyes is a columnist for the Lynchburg Ledger and has written over 100 articles for Useless-Knowledge.com.
