“LIMA, Peru — Dutchman Joran van der Sloot, long the prime suspect in the 2005 disappearance of a U.S. teen in Aruba, has confessed to killing a young Peruvian woman in his Lima hotel room, a police spokesman said.

Jan 14 (Reuters) - Adamant despite setbacks in his drive to make the death penalty legal, Peruvian President Alan Garcia wants to change the constitution to allow referendums on the issue.

In a statement issued late on Saturday, Garcia said he would seek a referendum to change Article 32 of the constitution, which says cases limiting basic rights are not subject to referendums. Simultaneously, a referendum would be held allowing capital punishment for child rapists.

That he did it or that he confessed to doing it? I guess it shouldn't surprise on either account given that they had video of the two going in and him leaving alone just hours before the body was discovered.

Not to mention he will likely get reduced time for admitting it. According to Fox news he will likely now serve as little as 6-10 years. If he had not confessed he may have recieved the max which is 35 years.
