In the last part of the documentary they have close ups of her while watching the confession. I think she impressed most (Dutch) people.
On Dutch weblogs the documentary is widely discussed today. Most are stunned and so will be most Americans when they get the chance to see it on tv. I guess it's still a little bit too early to discuss it here, but for me it may be interesting to see the differences (or lack of them) here and on Dutch weblogs.
>Just last week we've had some short interviews with her mom where her mom basically said she had seen the video before it aired and had decided that her daughter was indeed dead now. She always knew it, but she also always had a glimmer of hope until watching that video. It was decent of them to give her a view of it before it ever aired. She got to see the entire thing.

>>At this very moment we're watching here on Dutch tv the documentary about the undercover interviewing of Joran van der Schoot. Mu opinion - and it will be the opinion of 94 percent of the viewers - is that he's guilt as hell.
>>
>>In the confession he tells his criminal friend that she suddenly died (shaking and so on) and that he and a friend thought it would be best to get rid of her body. My hunch is that he was far more guilty and although he told every detail he didn't want to tell his friend that he actually killed her.

>>UPDATE: His name is Joran van der Sloot (not Schoot). Can someone correct the thread title?!!
