Paul van der Sloot released

Aruban police on Sunday June 26, 2005 would release Paul van der Sloot, father of Joran van der Sloot also being held in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway.

The lawyer representing Paul van der Sloot said Sunday that his client has waived his right not to testify against his son. Under Aruban law, parents have the option to refuse to testify against their children. In waiving that right, Paul van der Sloot is essentially agreeing to take the stand. Obviously this goes a long way in showing that neither his son, nor himself have anything to hide.
