Beautiful or not, her disappearance is felt deeply by those close to
her. The level of media attention in her home country would probably be
the same because she's a US citizen and a high school girl taking part
in a group trip. Sadly Natalee made a mistake made by many young girls
at home or abroad. She had too much to drink and left the bar with
strangers. It doesn't matter if it's Aruba or Anytown, USA. If you are
a girl/woman and you don't watch what you drink and leave with a
stranger the results can be tragic.
