The lead suspect in Natalee Holloway’s 2005 disappearance and death would be pleading guilty on Wednesday where he would reveal details about her death.
A federal judge set a plea and sentencing hearing for Joran van der Sloot in Birmingham, Alabama.
The suspect previously entered a non-guilty plea but he decided to plead guilty to enter a deal with the prosecutors.
In the deal with the prosecutor, Van der Sloot would reveal how Holloway died and how her body had been disposed of.
“There won’t be any further investigation or search … for Natalee’s remains,” Kelly said on Today.
Van der Sloot was extradited to Alabama from Peru, where he is serving a 28-year sentence after confessing to killing a Peruvian woman in 2010.
In 2005, Holloway was seen leaving a bar with Van der Sloot, a student at an international school during a high-school graduation trip with classmates to the Caribbean island of Aruba.
Van der Sloot was identified as a main suspect and was detained for questioning but no charges were filed in the case.
US prosecutors say that in 2010, Van der Sloot sought money from Beth Holloway to disclose the location of her daughter’s body.
A judge had also declared Natalee dead but no body had been found.
