Anchorman gives the charges in the civil suit then goes on to introduce the viewers to a summary of the facts of the case. 

Reporter: ABC-New York apparently requested an interview with Joran. Guilt ridden and convinced of his own innocence Joran takes a risky decision. Last Thursday he travels to New York, right into the lion's den. 

Anita van der Sloot: Hi again.(on the phone) 

Reporter: From Aruba Joran's parents came to New York as well- Paul and Anita van der Sloot. 

(phone)

Anita van der Sloot: Let's see how this develops. If there's a lot of press people in front of the ...entrance that'll change a lot of things. Maybe just of... like one occasion and then.. Yeah, okay, thanks bye. 

(end phone call) 

Reporter: They don't agree with Joran's decision to travel to New York, but still they're here to support him. I meet them in the hotelroom. Literally they have just received bad news. 

Paul van der Sloot: We first went for a walk in Central Park and on returning to the hotel we were overwhelmed by two people who forced somthing in my hands, later this turned out to be a subpoena, A subpoena in New York state. 

Reporter: You have it here ? The subpoena ? 

Paul van der Sloot: Yes. I'll get it. The parents of the girl 

Reporter: The Holloway family ? 

Paul van der Sloot: Yes, the mother and the father, they have served a subpoena on Joran and me, to appear in front of an American judge. 

Reporter: Joran hasn't arrived yet, can he expect the same welcome ? 

Paul van der Sloot: I don't know, but I'd guess so. 

(phone)

Paul van der Sloot:Joran, this is daddy, could you give me a call before you leave the airport ? 

(end phone call)

Anita van der Sloot:  Did you talk to Joran ? 

Paul van der Sloot:   No, it was on voicemail. 

Anita van der Sloot:   I'm going to the airport, what if he still wants to continue ? 

Paul van der Sloot:   He's got to make his own decision, but at least we did point out the risks. 

Anita van der Sloot:   Yes. (Kisses Paul) Oh, and I'll take this and I'll try to call Joran (leaves the room) 

(phone) 

If it's possible to reach him here....  Hi Joran this is mommy. Don't leave the airport under any condition, stay where you are at the luggage claim, they'll try to bring you a cellular, so you can give us a call. 

(end phone call)

What we want him to do is return to Holland. We're really afraid that strange things are going to happen and I don't know how far this family will go and.. of course we're Dutch citizens and and I want to speak with Joran first, see what he wants to do, if he wants to proceed with this. This is exactly what happened, what our lawyer in Aruba umm he has I think foreseen this and that's the reason he didn't want to travel with us, because he didn't want to be responsible and we thought ..oh well, no big deal, it will not happen, but what is happening now is that somebody here must have informed the family that we're here. 

Reporter: On arrival at the airport, Joran has cleared customs already. Here some employees of the lawfirm representing the Holloway family are waiting. They are aggresive and force a subpoena in his hand. We meet with Joran in a New York hotel room. 

Joran van der Sloot: The minute we arrived at the airport, we were taken in by customs and were held for 3 hrs., and interrogated by customs.In the airplane itself, some paperwork was forced upon us already, papers showing they wanted to start a court case against us, here in New York. When they finally allowed us to leave the airport, the people who were there to pick us up, were attacked by people who were trying to force the same papers upon us. The person who came to pick us up, was thrown down a coupl of times. I was pulled by my coat, papers stuffed in my coat and it wasn't fun. 

Reporter: You haven't uttered one word on camera or television and the circus, as I witnessed this afternoon, has started already. Do you think you will get a fair chance in this country to tell your side of the story ? 

Joran van der Sloot: I think I never got a fair chance, I hope to get it now. 

Reporter: Fox news has found out about Joran's arrival in New York. 

(Video) Greta .............. announces Joran's arrival. 

Reporter: What's the biggest misunderstanding about Joran van der Sloot in the States ? 

Joran van der Sloot: In the States I'm being called a murderer and a rapist, and I never aggressively touched a girl in my life, everybody knows that. For me the most important thing is that my family and friends and loved ones know that, and they do.So... what anybody else thinks, to be honest, doesn't matter so much. 

Reporter:  Back to Sunday night May 29, 2005, an Aruban beach. What happened in the night of the disappearance of Natalee Holloway? 

Joran van der Sloot: Yeah I eh.. I went out with her and we ended up on the beach at the Holiday Inn, I left her there, and that is the only mistake I made, and it is the only thing I wanted to redo. 

Reporter:  That you wouldn't have left her ? 

Joran van der Sloot: That I hadn't left her there, or would have taken her to somebody... yeah. 

Reporter: The second most often asked question probably is: Why did you lie during police interrogation ? 

Joran van der Sloot:  Well, eh... I eh... and my friends have decided to do this when we heard that the girl's family was at our home. It shocked us. I mean, I left the girl there and you never know what could have happened to her, we were scared, we thought she could show up in a couple of days or WOULD show up we were eh ah eh we were scared and we thought it would all end well. 

Reporter: Did you ever realize that this statement would haunt you the longest ? And that the Holloway family would say: 'See he's lying.. and he adjusts his statement'? 

Joran van der Sloot: In hindsight it was stupid.  And yes, one would like to take it back that I lied to the police because it isn't good to lie to the police, but at that moment it felt like.... I'm not a person to leave a girl behind on the beach and I didn't want anybody to find that out. So yeah that's the reason why I lied. 

Reporter: It's getting late and Joran prefers to continue the next morning. A publicity storm has started from Fox: 

(Video) Greta interval with John Kelly. 

Reporter: Friday morning 7 a.m. We talk with Joran and his father about what happened the last 24 hrs. Why did you come to New York ? Why did you walk into the lion's den ? 

Joran van der Sloot: I couldn't have expected that this would happen, but if I had been guilty I wouldn't have come here. Im not afraid of it, I didn't do anything evil, I didn't do anything wrong. 

Reporter: Was it a smart idea coming over to New York. 

Paul van der Sloot: Well, it's a choice that was made and we'll have to live with the consequences.

Reporter: What's your estimate ? What can you do ? 

Paul van der Sloot: Eeem I think that the stated facts can be refuted rather easily. 

(Video)  Greta and J. Kelly 

Reporter: If you were asked to describe Natalee Holloway, what kind of a girl is she ? 

Joran van der Sloot: Well eh.. I haven't known her for very long. I met her the same day, she asked me to go out with her , and I did, when I arrived she had been drinking, she was a little drunk, but she wasn't someone that I would like to have a relation with, she wasn't really nice or supersweet, let me put it that way. 

Reporter: Why did you decide to take her along ? 

Joran van der Sloot: She herself asked to come, she voluntarily went with us and eh we visited the places she wanted, we did what she wanted. 

Reporter: Did she come on too strong ? 

Joran van der Sloot: Yes, towards me and my friends she did. When we stopped on the corner, she opened the car window and shouted at her friends and her friends told her to get out, and we stopped so she could get out, but she didn't want to, she wanted to go with me, Deepak and Satish. And she went with us and she wanted to be left on the beach. She wanted me to stay with her, but I had to go to school the next day and I told her I had to go and eventually I called one of my friends and he picked me up and I went home. 

Reporter: Who picked you up ? 

Joran van der Sloot: Deepak's brother Satish. 

Reporter: After all the media violence, the van der Sloot family is putting up a fight. 

Paul van der Sloot: An image has been created, not just by the media, but by more official spokesmen as well, it doesn't feel good if you just let it happen. So eh eh we don't have anything to hide so ... we would like to tell our story to the US, also because Aruba is very much US-oriented. 

Reporter: Do you feel guilt towards your father ? 

Joran van der Sloot: Um Yeah of course, I feel very guilty towards my father. I never should have lied to him either... that was one of my big... biggest mistakes... he had to suffer a lot because of that. 

Anchorman sums it up and mentions that the verdict in tha Aruba case about the status of Joran as a suspect is expected in a couple of weeks.
