Did the FBI blow it during the van der Sloot sting?

Joran van der Sloot tried to extort $250,000 from Natalee Holloway’s mother in exchange for disclosing the location of Natalee's body on the island of Aruba.

U.S. authorities stepped in and paid Joran van der Sloot $15,000 in a sting operation. The agency wired the $15,000 to a bank account van der Sloot controlled.

The FBI delayed arresting van der Sloot because they were trying to build a murder case against him in the 5-year-old disappearance of Natalee Holloway in Aruba.

While the FBI was building a case for the Aruba disappearance, van der Sloot took the money and fled to Peru where he has now confessed to the murder of Stephany Flores.
