TL;DR Summary

Joran van der Sloot, who is currently serving a 28-year sentence in Peru for the murder of Stephany Flores, has confessed to killing Natalee Holloway in 2005. However, legal experts say he is unlikely to face prosecution for her murder due to the statute of limitations in Aruba and jurisdictional issues. Van der Sloot's confession came as part of a plea agreement in which he pleaded guilty to extortion and wire fraud charges related to Holloway's case. The agreement provided closure for Holloway's family, but it remains uncertain whether van der Sloot will face murder charges in Aruba.
