John van den Heuvel denies that he earns money from the book by Joran van der Sloot for which he wrote the preface, but Victor Vlam doubts that. “Foreign.”
Crime journalist John van den Heuvel has disappointed a huge number of people by writing the preface of the book by Joran van der Sloot, because he helps to speak the greenhouse of a murderer. John himself denies that he earns money from that, but media aritor Victor Vlam believes that the business is stinking and distrusts this.
Very remarkable
Victor has the idea that John does earn money with this. “There is one thing that really makes me doubt about that. I once went to look at the publishing house that publishes Joran’s book and that is also the publishing house of John van den Heuvel. That is a small publishing house. Ezowolf. A very small publishing house, “he says in the podcast The Communicado’s.
“And then I thought of: yes, but how can someone end up in a Peruvian prison at a tiny publishing house in Bergen, Noord-Holland? That is very remarkable, isn’t it? I mean: there are big publishers, I can imagine that you will end up, but how do you end up there? ”
Role of broker
John Kent Joran and will have mediated, Victor thinks. “It does suggest that he also played the role of broker there, isn’t it, so that he linked Joran to this publisher. What I find harder to believe is that no finances have been exchanged. “
“You have written a promotional preface and you have linked Joran to that publishing house. I mean: from one of those two I had accepted that I can imagine it as a friend service, but that you do both without there being any financial interest … I find that really difficult to believe frankly. ”
No inspection
Victor cannot say it with certainty. “I don’t know, I don’t have insight into the situation and how it works, but I find it extremely hard to believe that there is no financial gain for him.”
Finally, his co-host Lars Duursma: “I also find it totally unthinkable that John van den Heuvel still communicates left or to the right in the sale of such a book of which he himself has also written the preface.”
