  • In 2014 two dutch girls went missing while visiting the boquete region of panama. Months later remains of the two dutch girls were found scattered all around the culebra river, but the strange thing was - their possessions were found neatly presented on a nearby rock.
    How and why the dutch girls went missing is still unknown but stay with me as I tell you the story and then examine the evidence to see what really happened to Lisanne Froon and Kris Kremers, did they succumb to an accident? or were they murdered?

    I live in Panama and this is my recommendation, never, EVER get on taxi when there is another guy already inside, even if you are with a girlfriend. Take the metro or bus, its safer. If you are in a hurry, call an uber. They have the drivers information registered. Anyone can get a taxi license this days. Also always pay attention to body language of the people you interact with, if you feel something is not right, there is a reason for it. Maybe Im paranoid but I'm always checking my surroundings.

      Did happen to me once on an island when I overslept. Boat tour guide came looking for his business. A city works a bit different than a close nit community where everybody has known everybody for all their life. Every stranger stands out. And business plenty. If he did not come for his business, he had the day off and missed income to provide for his family. And if it may cost many their business, gives a reason to cover up. But a cover up van cost business aswell. Certainly I will be skipping that town, untill the rapists are brought to justice.

      another thing you need to take into account is they were private clients, meaning they were not part of a big group they were individually going with the guide so he was more involved.

    As a former Dutch marine, who had jungle training I find it highly unlikely, that two girls from Holland, without previous training would survive longer then three to four days in the jungle. dehydration, disorientation, exhaustion, eating the wrong plants/fruits are a few the most dangerous things that can happen to you. They had nothing with them, nothing to make clean water, no food, no hatchet to make a shelter, no dry clothes no compass and no map, among other things. So if the evidence shows that they were alive for longer then a week, in my opinion someone kept them alive. Just based on survival chances and not including all the other evidence. Besides that, humidity in the jungle can reach up to almost 90% so to find belongings in such a good state even if they never were in the river is nearly impossible.

    This is the best explanation I have heard about this case. All the evidence points to foul play by one or more persons. To treat it as an accident by the authorities makes no sense - unless the motive is to cover up an unspeakably terrible crime which would have shattered the confidence of would be tourists to that country. The piece of evidence that to me cannot be ignored is the severed foot, which could not possibly be the result of an accident. Justice has yet to be served in this case.

      2. It was taken from _over her._ As in, someone was above her with the camera facing down.
      3. Put those 2 things together. Someone took a photo of this girl from *behind her* and either while standing or kneeling over her, or (please no) laying on top of her in some way.
      Also, the part about the hair being clean and dry. Doesnt seem coincidental _when added in with other similar meticulous/tidy "coincidences"._
      1. Clean hair/neat hair.
      2. Neatly folded clothes.
      3. All objects in perfect condition.
      These could be coincidences. But, personally, I don't believe in silly superstitions like "coincidences".
      As For the question: _Why did the girls keep going North?_
      There's 2 possibilities.
      1. They couldn't, like the video states, because someone was following them.
      2. But my gut instinct? Let's think. Why would 2 girls keep going North?
      They were told to, purposefully misled at some point in their ill fated trip, maybe given a bad, even sinister intentioned, piece of advice if they were "ever to find themselves lost". _But,_ you may be asking, _who would give this advice that the girls would actually trust enough to listen to?_
      And to that, I say this: *a tour-guide.*
      All these, as one might call them "coincidences":
      Coincidence 1: The tour guide giving so much of a fuck about two newly-met clients that he took it upon himself to _visit their residence and planned place of work_ when they were only ONE HOUR LATE to their appointment seems a little excessive. The time (30mins to be exact) he spent alone -searching for/hiding any incriminating evidence- in the last place they slept "safely" seems...excessively strange.
      Especially when you take into account alot of killers like to insert themselves into the investigation and/or media coverage and search of their victims; Making themselves part of search & rescue, doing TV interviews, calling in with new "tips" or "newly recalled memories", showing up at memorials and vigils, introducing themselves as friends despite actual friends not recognizing them, etc.) It would seem almost "suspicious". You know, if it weren't such an obvious coincidence.
      Coincidence 2.) Highly rated, -mostly- positively reviewed 100% officially board certified Panama tour-guide involved in the disappearance/planned brutal murder of 2 of his female clients? _white female clients?_ what do you think THAT would do to the Panamanian tour industry? This fact coupled with the officially stated cause of death is probably just coincidence though.
      Coincidence 3.) Suspicioisly well-informed-on-his-clients-sleeping arrangements-and-volunteer-work-plans tour guide has all positive reviews EXCEPT for the *one tour he did with a lone (meaning no men present) female client* is also the _same_ tour guide to be paired up with *2 missing lone female clients.* -circumstancial evidence.- Mere coincidence, Dear Watson.

      Accident drowning/death by mishap.

    She was traveling alone and had found a taxi driver well know for his "decency and good manners " to drive her around.
    After 3 days of her arrival, she was found beheaded and her body thrown in the jungle. Belonging there and money stolen. Her family was informed 1 month later. They didn't check before because they were used that's she'd leave without notice or tell about her whereabouts.
    After investigations, turned out that the taxi driver was the one.

    For me the distance of Kris from Lisanne in the last pics taken are not so strange. When you first set out on a hike, you are motivated, full of energy and happy to stop and enjoy the moment with your friend, taking selfies but as you go along, it gets tiring and harder and it seems like Kris just wanted to get the where they were going. I've gone on hikes before with two friends and there were big distances between us at times. Once I got so annoyed I just turned back and went back to the car. You can annoy each other and the never ending path can get irritating to some people and can divide the best of friends. Some people cope better under tiring circumstances. Others do not.

      I've read tons of articles about this disapperance. I think this is a typical example of getting lost in the jungle - despite the weird discovery of the backpack. Survival experts say after getting lost people usually survive 1-2 weeks in the jungle before they succumb to the elements which fits into this scheme (emergency calls). The person without proper survival skills usually dies of hypothermia, dehydration or (fall) injury.
      And about the guide: a lot of men abuse women in many ways but only few of them could actually kill somebody... especially weird for a guide whose good reputation is everything to his business.

      I've been telling people for years that there is foul play. It's not a miracle that their belongings are in pristine condition. It was deliberately left in the open by the killer when he/she/they found out that the police are using sniffer dogs which will eventually lead the investigators to their location so might as well get rid of it. Someone stalked those girls. There is a murderer in that area.

    • @potato-whiz
      @potato-whiz 3 года назад +80

      I don't think so. I think that by this time they are starting to get concerned that they're lost and are trying to find their way back. The one girl was still taking pictures because panic hadn't completely set in yet, so she's still thinking to take pics. The other girl looks stressed but not scared and still manages a smile in one of the photos and is looking at the camera without fear. At some point, one girl dies, and the other takes her phone and leaves it off. When her own phone dies she starts trying to use her friend's phone but doesn't know the pin.

    • @hermionestranger4964
      @hermionestranger4964 3 года назад +46

      It's already been confirmed for a long time that the photos taken in the jungle were a way for the girls to illuminate their path. They were, after all, in a deep and dark jungle, and injured. People not from that region have no idea just how dark and maze-like that kind of woods can be.
      They took pictures with flash in order to see where they were going. At one point, a picture was taken of the other girl's head apparently to check if she had a head injury or not. Then, some photo was deleted, maybe to save space on the phone (these were old phones back in the day) or for some other reason.
      It is highly unlikely that any foul play was involved. But since people don't like hearing boring, realistic explanations like injury + wild animals, they make up all kinds of stuff, like that there are serial killers hiding out in the woods, or that they were followed by somebody into the woods, or that even a "lost tribe" had eaten them or some similar racist conspiracy theory shit.

    I'm really, really thankful for this in-depth analysis that shines light on the possibility of foul play. Whenever there is a disappearance and people don't have an immediate answer, they're too quick to say, "oh just an accident." However, I'm glad that this video makes it clear that it could have been an accident or it could have not been one at all. The man interviewed around roughly 30 mins does an excellent job of highlighting the suspicion of a single deleted photo. As he so cleverly notes, if you're lost in the woods and desperate, the last thing you're doing is going far out of your way to delete a single photo. Heck, I personally rarely delete photos because if they're garbage they're garbage. The piece about the rolled-up skin is also an important reason for pause. And the shorts too and other details ... well, you get the point. Anyway, altogether an in-depth and just analysis. Thank you for your upload.
    I remember hearing about the true crime Smiley Face murders where all the evidence points towards murder but police keep denying that anything sinister may be going on. I think we need to wonder, in this case too, whether police or authorities are covering things up due to corruption or fears of losing tourism revenues, mitigating the chances of a lawsuit, etc. I wish someone would interview all the tour guides, surrounding locals, and even police in great detail.

    "I'm surprised that I only read 1 negative review... It seems that Feliciano is very well protected against negative reviews. Unfortunately I only read the positive reviews before I left. Feliciano was super friendly, helped me, held my hand during the climbs on the pianista trail. Until I realized that that help was only there for me, not for my 3 fellow travelers. In the days that followed, I was besieged by messages, invitations,... During a horse ride and a trip to hot springs, he suddenly turned out to be our driver (while he had nothing to do with horse riding) and he got into the hot spring. Not exactly what you expect from a taxi driver. I didn't feel comfortable in his surroundings and was very happy that my fellow travelers had accompanied me so that I wasn't alone with him, which was what he meant. In the 3 days I was in Boquete, I got constant messages asking to come to his home,... Enthusiastic guide, but I have my doubts about his intentions... As a European woman, don't go alone..."

      i think the guide was looking for any proof of wat he did to the girls. Like any notes the girls may have written of something shady they felt from that creeper. Maybe he knew of the diary the girls kept and thought they wrote stuff about him. He bribed or threatened the host and that's why he was allowed in the room. The guide definitely is the one who killed the girls. All the clues are there. Like the bad reviews from other women, the machete, his coffee farm and hw well he knows the jungle. Police is bribed from him,too. Just giving my opinion and from listening to some guesses that were mentioned at the end. Just like it happens in Mexico. Everyone gets bought with money. Sad wat ppl do to others for money. I pray that one day he gets caught. God rest the souls of the girls and give comfort to their families.✨🙏✨💞

    The tour guide apparently went in their room while they were missing, searched where the phone charges were, stayed in their room for 30 minutes and then left. He didn't call the police right away but waited 10 HOURS before reporting them missing...that's more than enough time to do what he needed to do and take care of the bodies...One last thing, for some reasons he found most of the evidence even if it was in the middle of a huge jungle in pitch black...sounds like he was the one who put their body parts there from the first place...

      Poor tour guide very implausible accusations. Why would the tour guide not have just waited until the next morning when a tour was booked with him? Why should he follow the two for hours in the jungle? How should a tour guide overpower two women? Why didn't the tour guide just take the cell phones? Who takes the trouble to spread bones for miles in the Jungle?
      I think this tour guide was/is a responsible person who understandably worries immediately when his 2 female tourists go missing.

    As a Brazilian, this case hits me hard. I know what some evil people are capable to do, specially here in Latin America. Ordinary people who lives off tourism tends to try to have any advantage on the tourists as we call ‘’Pra gringo é mais caro’’ which means ‘’For foreigns is more expensive’’ and this sometimes is not only for prices. Whoever killed the girls took advantage of their lack of knowledge of the region, language and the people.

It also sadly makes sense to me that the police in Panama would cover it up. They very much depend on tourism and 2 young girls being driven further and further into the woods for days and killed by a well known and liked tour guide, would without a doubt make tourist second guess a trip there.

      Note aso the perfect photo, crisp and not blurry and without any artifacts like fingers or water droplets from the rain. The photographer clearly tried to focuss on the hair only and was careful to not provide any context, like surroundings which could reveal the actual position and state of Kris' body (or the missing rest of it).
      Additionally, Kris' hair looks not only super clean but also very dry, considering the rainy weather on the rest of the night photos, which all of them have been taken in the early morning of April 8th according to metadata.

    One lesson to learn is that tourists should avoid going to these shady places, particularly hiking trails, except without in a small group. The identity and the photos of taxi drivers and tour operators should be posted to someone back home on a daily basis in case of exigencies.
    Not to accept food, cigarettes or drink from strangers and always being suspicious of overtly friendly strangers.
