The Dutchman Joran van der Sloot, 23, will try for a reduced sentence using the “violent emotion” defense, his lawyer, Maximo Altez, told The Associated Press. The lawyer argues that Van der Sloot killed Ramirez on May 30 after becoming enraged when he realized she had looked at his laptop and learned of his connection to missing American teen Natalee Holloway, who disappeared from the island of Aruba in 2005. Joran van der Sloot will plead guilty to killing 21-year-old Stephany Flores Ramirez
