Joran van der Sloot won't be rearrested in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway – despite what appeared to be his recent confession to the crime.

He goes on to say he and a friend disposed of the body. (The 20-year-old now claims he lied during the secret recording, which was arranged by Dutch crime reporter Peter de Vries.)
