BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — An Alabama judge signed an order Thursday declaring Natalee Holloway dead, more than six years after she vanished on Aruba. Judge Alan King signed the order at the request of the missing woman’s divorced parents, David and Beth Holloway.
David Holloway told the judge in September he wanted to stop payments on her medical insurance and use her college fund to help her younger brother. Thursday’s hearing was scheduled before a suspect questioned in Holloway’s disappearance, Dutchman Joran van der Sloot, pleaded guilty Wednesday in Peru to the 2010 murder of a woman in Lima.
