WWW- Police are said to be investigating whether a porn filmmaker might have had a hand in the May disappearance of Alabama teen Natalee Holloway [pictured] in Aruba.
According to the latest scenario in the baffling case, someone may have been trying to talk the pretty 18-year-old honor student into appearing in an X-rated flick.
Aruba cops and the FBI are said to be looking to the porn world for leads.
Paul Barresi, a former adult-film producer who’s now a private eye, says he heard about the possible inquiry from “another ‘recruiter’ who scouts South America for porn talent.”
“Natalee would have been a perfect target – a naive girl from a small town,” Barresi tells us. “The recruiter might tell her he wanted her to pose for some modeling test shots.
“The cops want to know whether [anyone] gave her a date-rape drug like GHB. Only, apparently, the plan went awry. She died,” he theorizes, “and the porn guy may have had to get rid of her body.”
Barresi believes the recruiter is likely to be “someone who lives out of a suitcase.” The National Enquirer reports in its new issue that cops suspect he lives in Aruba.
The Enquirer’s Rebecca Mowling and Don Gentile also report that one witness claims he saw three men dumping a body in a landfill site.
Investigators in Aruba couldn’t be reached for comment yesterday.
