Joran van der Sloot pleads guilty to extortion, provides details of Natalee Holloway's death_我的网站

A |     Joran van der Sloot, the main suspect in the 2005 disappearance of Natalee Holloway, pleaded guilty Wednesday to federal extortion charges related to the Alabama teenager's disappearance and was sentenced to 20 years in prison.As a part of the plea deal, van der Sloot agreed to provide information about the 18-year-old's disappearance in Aruba to Holloway's mother, Beth Holloway.Van der Sloot said he killed Natalee Holloway on a beach, bludgeoned her face with a cinderblock and then disposed of her body in the ocean, according to a partial transcript of a proffer meeting he had with prosecutors on Oct. 3.Van der Sloot said Natalee Holloway had wanted to go back to her hotel that night, but he arranged for the two to get dropped off "a little bit further away from her hotel so we could walk back … and I might still get a chance to be with her," van der Sloot said in the meeting with prosecutors.As the two walked alone on the beach, van der Sloot said he "laid her down" and they began kissing, and then Holloway told him to stop.But he said he kept pursing her, and Natalee Holloway "knees me in the crotch," van der Sloot said, according to the transcript."When she knees me in the crotch I get up on the beach and I kick her extremely hard in the face," he continued.He said the teen was then "laying down unconscious, possibly even dead," according to the transcript.Van der Sloot told prosecutors he then found a cinderblock on the beach and "smashed" her head with it.He said he walked into the ocean up to his knees and pushed Natalee Holloway's body into the water.In court Wednesday, as van der Sloot pleaded guilty to federal extortion charges, Beth Holloway said, "Joran, for 18 years you denied killing my daughter," and now "you have finally admitted that you, in fact, have murdered her.""You are a killer. I want you to remember that every time that jail door slams," she said."Even if you have finally confessed ... you can't be tried here for her murder. But I do employ the court to give you the maximum sentence possible," Beth Holloway said.Turning to van der Sloot, she added, "By the way, you look like hell, Joran. I don't know how you are going to make it."She left the podium in tears.Van der Sloot, 36, apologized in court to the Holloway family and his own family, and said he hopes "the statement that I provided will provide some kind of closure.""I am not the same kind of person today as I was then, I have given my heart to Jesus Christ," he said.Natalee Holloway's dad, Dave Holloway, said in a statement, "Today's proceeding confirmed that this defendant murdered Natalee and then tortured and extorted those who loved her most.""He is evil personified," Dave Holloway said.The judge Wednesday accepted the plea agreement and said van der Sloot brutally murdered two young women who refused his sexual advances, but that his confession in the Natalee Holloway case cannot be used against him.The judge sentenced van der Sloot to 20 years in prison to run concurrently with the Peruvian sentence. He will also have to pay restitution to Beth Holloway.Van der Sloot initially pleaded not guilty to the extortion and wire fraud charges in June after he was extradited to the U.S. from Peru, where he had been serving a 28-year sentence for the 2010 murder of 21-year-old Stephany Flores.In 2010, van der Sloot was indicted by a federal grand jury for allegedly trying to extort Holloway's family.Federal prosecutors alleged that in March 2010 van der Sloot contacted Beth Holloway through her lawyer, John Q. Kelly, and claimed he would reveal the location of the teen's body in exchange for $250,000, with $25,000 paid upfront. During a recorded sting operation, Kelly met with van der Sloot at an Aruba hotel, giving him $10,000 in cash as Beth Holloway wired $15,000 to van der Sloot's bank account, according to prosecutors.Then, van der Sloot allegedly changed his story about the night he was with Natalee Holloway, prosecutors said. Van der Sloot claimed he had picked Natalee Holloway up, but she demanded to be put down, so he threw her to the ground. Van der Sloot said her head hit a rock and he claimed she died instantly from the impact, according to prosecutors.Van der Sloot then took Kelly to a house and claimed that his father, who had since died, buried Natalee Holloway in the building's foundation, prosecutors said.Kelly later emailed van der Sloot, saying the information he had provided was "worthless," according to prosecutors. Within days, van der Sloot left Aruba for Peru.After court ended Wednesday, Beth Holloway told reporters, "I got the answer I’ve been searching for for the last 18 years. ... For me, reaching the end of the nightmare is better than closure."ABC News' Miles Cohen contributed to this report.。    江西大二学生黄喆曲暑假期间和同学开车下乡，带着电笔、胶布等工具免费为村民维修家电。自8月1日以来，他们已走过几十个村子，修了上百件电器，维修视频也意外走红，单条点赞超过60万，粉丝涨至8.7万。（据光明网8月15日报道）在青壮年普遍外出务工的村落，留守老人过日子最怕家电出故障。风扇转动不畅，夜灯接触不良，送去镇上维修路途远、花钱多，不少老人索性凑合用。黄喆曲的上门维修，补上的正是乡村便民服务长期存在的微小缺口。这种“专业对口、按需上门”的帮助，真正落到了老人的急需处。

B | 走村串户的维修之旅，也是一堂行走在乡土大地的成长课，实现了青年与乡村的双向滋养。电路原理背得再熟，碰到使用十余年、线路老化的老旧家电，也得沉下心反复排查调试；实验室里的操作再规范，到了农家院落，也得学着用乡音唠清需求、耐心讲解用法。年轻人在灶台边检测、屋檐下接线的过程，既是把课本知识转化为实操能力的过程，也是读懂乡土中国、厚植为民情怀的过程。对理工科青年而言，把万用表搭在农家旧家电上，把绝缘胶带缠在老屋电线上，就是最接地气的实践答卷。

C | 乡村给了青年打磨本领的练兵场，青年给乡村带去了新鲜活力，一予一取之间，青春的价值与乡村的需求实现了同频共振。

D | 乡村全面振兴是系统工程，既需要顶天立地的产业项目，也需要润物无声的民生服务。千千万万像黄喆曲这样的大学生，利用假期带着专业技能走进乡村，有人修家电，有人普及法律，有人教知识，个体力量虽然微薄，点点星光汇聚，便能织密乡村民生服务的温暖网络。更重要的是，每一次下乡实践都是一次情感联结。当年轻人真正走进乡村、认同乡村，今天奔走田埂的暑期志愿者，就可能成为明天的返乡建设者。这种由情感认同催生的人才回流，正是乡村全面振兴最持久的内生动力。

E | 小小工具包，装着专业本领，更载着青年担当。当更多青年带着技能下沉乡土、把理想播撒田野，田埂上的青春就会绽放更耀眼的光芒，广袤乡村必将持续涌动更为蓬勃的发展动能。
