Joran van der Sloot pleads not guilty to fraud, extortion | NewsNation Now

The chief suspect in the disappearance of 18-year-old Natalee Holloway, Joran van der Sloot was extradited from Peru for a court appearance in Alabama on Friday. Van der Sloot is not charged in Holloway's disappearance. However, in 2010, U.S. prosecutors said the Dutch citizen reached out to Holloway's mother, Beth, and asked for money in exchange for disclosing the location of her daughter's body. Van der Sloot pleaded not guilty to one count each of extortion and wire fraud.
