New show about the friends of Joran van der Sloot coming soon exclusively to Podimo

Jun 22, 2023

Everybody in The Netherlands, born before 1995 knows who Joran van der Sloot is. The case of Natalee Holloway became world news in 2005. In 2008, Peter R. de Vries' undercover action drew more than 7 million viewers to national television. When it was recently announced that Joran van der Sloot will be extradited to the U.S. for extorting Natalee Holloway's mother, the news was trending topic in no time.

Journalist Ilan Hoekstra has been following the news about Joran van der Sloot closely. When he was forced into quarantine during his vacation in Peru 3 years ago, he dives - out of sheer boredom - into Joran's case again. He then stumbles upon a bizarre Skype conversation that Joran has with someone who calls him 'darling' and 'sweetheart'. And who indicates he wants to help Joran him no matter what and even pay him money.

This story pushes Ilan to investigate Joran's friends. Ilan uncovers a network in which tons of money is transferred and secrets are shared, brought to the world in a devious way. The podcast series reveals how manipulative Joran still is and how he manages to wind everyone around his finger.
