Tim Miller, who is in Aruba again with this EquuSearch Team in connection with the Natalee Holloway case and is organizing a third search effort for the American teen.

Considering the information that they have, Miller said that the possibility exists that Natalee’s body was dumped into the ocean. In view thereof they brought equipment from the only forensic crime scene divers in the US. He also said that they are working on bringing equipment that can be used at a depth of 1000 feet as the equipment that they presently have only reach 550 feet.They intend to search in deep waters and see what they can find there. There are 8 EquuSearch members in Aruba and 3 more are on their way. Including Tim, there are a dozen EquuSearch members working closely with local authorities to try and close the case.

Miller said furthermore that all indications are that Natalee is not alive and that they wish to do their utmost to locate her and bring her back home so that the family will know what happened and rest.

He emphasized that EquuSearch is not involved in the investigation; they are simply a search team. Any information on locations to be searched is welcome.
They are presently searching in the ocean north of Aruba by the Fisherman’s Huts and indications are that they must be at a distance of 3 to 5 miles at a depth of 700 to 800 feet. They are covering about 1 square mile per day which appears to be slow, reason why they are bringing in another unit to double their capacity.
