told ABC News
Van der Sloot, 35, is serving a 28-year-sentence for the 2010 murder of Stephany Flores in Lima. That crime came five years after he emerged as the prime suspect, but was never prosecuted, for the presumed death of Holloway. The U.S. charges stem from an alleged extortion attempt in which van der Sloot claimed he would reveal the whereabouts of Holloway’s body for $250,000.
