Who are Joran van der Sloot's parents? Natalee Holloway's mom recalls 'freakish' chat with killer's parents about his wild sex life

BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA: Beth Holloway, the mother of murdered high school student Natalee Holloway, has shared bizarre details of her meeting with the parents of her daughter's killer where they bragged about their son Joran van der Sloot's wild sex life.

Shortly after the disappearance of her daughter in 2005, Beth had traveled to van der Sloot's family home in Aruba where she met with Anita and Paulus van der Sloot, the parents of Joran van der Sloot.

Natalee’s murderer denied any involvement in the initial stages of the investigation and told investigators that he had been with the victim on the night she went missing, but had dropped her off at her hotel room.

This week Joran finally admitted to bludgeoning the then 17-year-old Natalee to death after she rejected his sexual advances.

Grizzly details of Beth Holloway's meeting with the killer’s parents

Beth spoke about the uncomfortable meeting with van der Sloot's parents in the early days of the search for Natalee in 2005, claiming that the pair “raised a killer” as she reflected on the encounter.

Holloway traveled to Aruba with News Max's Greta Van Susteren, who would go on to cover the case extensively for the next 18 years.

She had described the meeting to be the “most freakish” of her life.

Recollecting the experience, both Beth and Greta recalled how Jaron's mother Anita was “sobbing uncontrollably” and told them explicit details of alleged sexual encounters between her son and Natalee, which he had shared with her.

Greta revealed how she was "sobbing, and telling the most graphic things about things that she said Joran did sexually to Natalee things, that I mean, horribly graphic.”

Holloway also described how the killer’s father Paulus was sweating profusely, so much so that his wife had to use a kitchen towel to mop up pools of sweat on the floor.

Holloway recalled, “He was sweating so, I was trying not to gag. The sweat was forming in these pools and all the pools joined together and made one large lake. I got nauseous.”

News Max’s Greta Van Susteren said the likely reason he was sweating so much was because he knew his son had done something gravely wrong and that he was suffering from a guilty conscience.

Holloway agreed to her point, saying: “Well, he raised a killer”, and of his mother, she said, “She enabled him in every way.”

In the course of the meeting, it was also disclosed by the killer’s parents how Joran was partaking in anger management classes, which his mother told Holloway was going “so well”.

What happens to Joran van der Sloot now?

Joran van der Sloot confessed to his crimes this week as part of a plea deal that saw him convicted for seeking to extort money from Natalee Holloway's family to reveal the whereabouts of her body.

The Dutch killer will not face any jail time over Natalee’s murder but was legally compelled to release all details of the killing as part of the plea deal.

Chilling audio of his confession was released this week that revealed van der Sloot calmly disclosing how he caved in Natalee's face with a cinder block after she spurned his advances.

The two had met at a bar where the US national had been celebrating her high school graduation, the night before she was due to return home on May 30, 2005.

He revealed how the two were kissing on the beach when he tried to take things further and Natalee refused, kicking him in the crotch when he refused to stop.

In retaliation, he kicked her “extremely hard” in the face, rendering her unconscious, before picking up the murder weapon and “smashing” her face in.

He then dumped her body in the Caribbean Sea and it has never been found since.

Joran’s admission came almost two decades after he was first arrested and subsequently released as a suspect in Natalee's disappearance.

Thereafter he tried to extort $250,000 from the victim’s family in return for information on her remains.

Joran van der Sloot murdered twice

Van der Sloot has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for wire fraud and extortion which he will serve out in Peru, where he is currently serving 28 years for the murder of another woman.

In 2010, the Dutch had smothered 21-year-old Stephany Flores in a hotel room in Lima, after they got into an altercation when Flores learned he had been linked to Natalee's disappearance.

The murder took place exactly five years to the day that van der Sloot killed Natalee.

Following her murder, Anita van der Sloot, who had stood by her son the first time during Natalee's disappearance, then admitted that he may have been involved in the Flores murder.

She told the Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf that her son is “sick in his head”. However, she was not present in court for her son's sentencing.

Van der Sloot's father Paulus, a prominent lawyer himself, had passed away from a heart attack the same year Flores was killed. Holloway attributed his passing to the “stress” of trying to shield van der Sloot from inevitable conviction.
