With the latest arrest in Aruba and a T-shirt that may hold forensic evidence, Beth Twitty is hopeful, but wary, that there could be a break in the case of her daughter, Natalee Holloway, the Alabama teen who went missing on a school trip.
"It does start to build again -- I'll be honest -- that hope of maybe, maybe, this is the one break we need," she said. "And that's all we need is just one break for this entire, entire mystery to unravel what happened."
Geoffrey van Cromvoirt, 19, was led into an Aruban police station, hooded and in handcuffs Tuesday night after an Aruban judge spent the afternoon hearing arguments that he should remain in jail.
Aruban prosecutors would not comment on the outcome, but released a statement saying that he "is suspected of criminal offenses that may be related to the disappearance of Miss Holloway and of offenses related to dealing in illegal narcotics."
The arrest follows reports that there is now forensic evidence vital to the case on a shirt, which has the markings of a prominent private security company in Aruba . Van Cromvoirt once worked for the company, which is owned by his father. The company's duties include nighttime beach patrol. Holloway was reportedly left alone on a beach the night she vanished.
It is the first momentum in months on this case, but police haven't ruled out more arrests.
