Natalee Holloway’s mother addressed Joran van der Sloot in court on Wednesday after van der Sloot pleaded guilty to extortion and wire fraud charges, doing so after admitting to Holloway’s mother and law enforcement that he killed her daughter, according to a lawyer for Natalee’s family.

“You have finally admitted that, in fact, you murdered her,” Beth Holloway said in a victim impact statement, according to AL.com and WBRC.

“You terminated her dreams, her potential, and her possibilities when you bludgeoned her to death in 2005,” she said.

“You didn’t get what you wanted from Natalee, your sexual satisfaction, so you brutally killed her,” she explained, adding that if her daughter had survived, “I have no doubt she would have fulfilled all her dreams.” She definitely would have.”

Van der Sloot revealed to Beth that, after killing Natalee, he went home and watched pornography. Beth subsequently stated during a news conference that, after the murder, he disposed of Natalee’s corpse in the water.

Despite confessing to murdering Holloway, van der Sloot’s homicide statute of limitations in Aruba is 12 years, which means he cannot be tried locally.

In response to van der Sloot’s extortion, Beth stated, “I paid my daughter’s killer money.” That’s incredible. I don’t think anyone can really comprehend what that implies.”

“By the way, Joran, you look like hell.” Beth said. I don’t see how you’ll make it… You are a murderer, and I want you to remember that every time the cell door closes.”

Natalee vanished on a high school graduation trip to Aruba in 2005.

As part of the plea agreement reached on Wednesday, van der Sloot, who pleaded guilty to one count of extortion and one count of wire fraud and was sentenced to 20 years in prison for the crimes, committed to finally providing answers to Natalee’s mother and the public.

The hearing in Birmingham, Alabama, gave new insight into the almost two-decade-long lawsuit.

In a grand jury indictment that PEOPLE obtained in 2010, prosecutors claimed that van der Sloot offered Beth “the location of Natalee Holloway’s remains and the circumstances of her death” in exchange for $25,000, which the grieving mother paid. He then attempted to obtain another $225,000 “upon positive identification of the remains, but he never actually took Beth to Natalee’s body.

Natalee was last seen leaving a bar with van der Sloot on May 30, 2005, on a high school graduation trip to Aruba. Van der Sloot, then 17, was detained multiple times in connection with the disappearance of the 18-year-old but never prosecuted. Natalee was proclaimed legally dead in 2012, although her corpse was never discovered.

Until this June, van der Sloot had been serving a 28-year murder sentence in Peru for the brutal 2010 killing of Stephany Flores Ramrez, a 21-year-old student who, he later told investigators, discovered his identity as the person of interest in Natalee’s disappearance while sharing a hotel room in Lima. The two battled, and van der Sloot, then 22, ultimately admitted to beating, strangling, and suffocating her to death—exactly five years after Natalee vanished.

Peru approved van der Sloot’s “temporary surrender” to stand trial in Alabama before returning to Peru to complete his sentence, US federal prosecutors claimed last summer. Van der Sloot’s term in the United States will run concurrently with his time in Peru, but if he is freed from jail in Peru early, he will spend the balance of his 20-year sentence in the United States, according to AL.com.

According to the WBRC, Van der Sloot will be imprisoned until 2043. He must also pay compensation to Beth Holloway in the amount of $250,100.

Van der Sloot’s attorneys did not immediately reply to people’s requests for comment.
