THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.
NANCY GRACE: We`ll see. We`ll see. I think you`re likely right.
To Lisa Wayne, she`s right about this. The case was bungled from the get-go. I know the Aruban government hates it when we say that, but that is the reality.
Elizabeth (ph), do we have that list so far? Oh, OK. Take a look at this, Lisa Wayne. Let`s go. Number one, blood found in the car was reported on national TV. Not! Blood found on a mattress. It was a dog`s blood. Bones were found. That made the headlines. They were donkey bones. Confession. That was widely reported, then retracted. Ten-day delay in searching the getaway car belonging to Joran Van Der Sloot. They gave the suspects alone time in a car together to cook up their story, handcuffed together.
Round one, catch and release. The two security guards wrongfully arrested. They stay behind bars for weeks. Catch and release two. Judge Paul Van Der Sloot. We got familiar with his backside as he runs from questions. Round three, catch and release. Remember the party boat deejay, Steve Croes? That`s not all. Catch and release round four, Deepak and Satish Kalpoe.
Very quickly to Bethany Marshall. Now the FBI is being allowed to take part in the case. That should give us some encouragement.
BETHANY MARSHALL, PSYCHOANALYST: I hope so. I mean, when you really look at this crime, it was planned, purposeful and predatory. Joran Van Der Sloot told a lie to Natalee when he first met her at the nightclub. He told her he was a foreign exchange student in order to gain her trust. This is a part of a crime that was planned. And here this kid -- if the allegations are true, the kid has the whole thing planned out, although he does get sloppy at the end. He has to tell the 22 lies to cover his tracks. But the people investigating the case can`t carry out a thorough and thoughtful plan of their own.
NANCY GRACE: We`ll all be right back. We are live in Aruba and the search for Natalee Holloway. Breaking news not only in the search of the landfill, the draining of a pond, but a mortal blow to the search for Natalee dealt by none other than a set of Aruban judges. Stay with us.
BETH TWITTY: (INAUDIBLE) coming forward. I`m really encouraged, Nancy. I mean, I think that`s a huge step forward for us. And you know, maybe it`s taken him a little while to have some assurance
