Accused murderer Joran van der Sloot claims that rats are crawling up through his prison cell toilet (nothing more than a hole we might add).  Poor Joran!

Van der Sloot confessed to the murder of 21-year-old Peruvian student Stephany Flores while attending the Latin American Poker Tour in Lima.  Flores was beaten to death in a room registered under van der Sloot's name.

Gambling911.com has extensively covered the horrendous prison conditions found in Peru.  Joran's life will not be easy, to say the least.

Meanwhile, van der Sloot's mother is claiming that her son is bi-polar.

In other news, the accused Dutchman's defense attorney is claiming that Joran was not permitted to have an interpreter at the time he made his confession.  He filed a report of misconduct against the investigating detectives on Wednesday.  Van der Sloot is facing 15 years.

ABC also reports that the 22-year-old Van der Sloot is now suggesting to the newspaper that he was lured to Peru by the FBI to facilitate extraditing him to the U.S. He claims a man named "Garcia" invited him to a poker tournament in Lima, Peru, where van der Sloot met Flores.

"Garcia arranged and paid for everything for me. Looking back, I can't believe I let myself be lured. I hardly knew that guy. It was just a setup," the paper quoted him as saying.

Van der Sloot was the prime suspect in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway from Aruba in 2005.
