Gerold Dompig, the deputy police chief in charge of the case, said the Twitty (Holloway) family were the biggest problem during the investigation. He also said that pressure from the family sidetracked the investigation. They were forced to make premature arrests and that destroyed any chance police had of gathering evidence. “They brought out their big guns on the very first day, and they started shooting,” said Dompig. “They didn’t understand the way things are done in our system. They didn’t want to understand. They act like they came from a world where you can just crush people. It was very harmful to our investigation.”

As a result the new chief prosecutor Peter Blanken said the authorities investigated this new claim but dismissed it. Blanken says, “The locations, names, and times he gave just did not make sense.”
