Report: Joran van der Sloot to become a father behind bars
It appears Joran van der Sloot is about to add a new role to his résumé - father.
Van der Sloot became well-known around the world for the murder of Stephany Flores in Peru and for being arrested twice, but never charged, in the 2005 disappearance of U.S. teenager Natalee Holloway in Aruba.
Now the Dutch citizen may be preparing to welcome a new child into the world while he is serving 28 years in a Peruvian prison for Flores' death, according to the Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf, which says it confirmed the news over the phone with van der Sloot himself.
 2011: Video shows van der Sloot confessing that he killed woman
The mother, identified only as "Leidi" by the newspaper, met van der Sloot in prison and became pregnant after an unsupervised visit with the jailed 28-year-old, the paper said.
Van der Sloot's lawyer said he did not confirm the pregnancy, as stated by the newspaper. But Maximo Altez told Mayra Cuevas of "In Session" that Leidi is registered as van der Sloot’s girlfriend at Piedras Gordas Prison and they have had conjugal visits. Van der Sloot can receive visitors once or twice a month. Altez says he met Leidi in prison through another inmate.
This isn't the first time rumors have swirled around van der Sloot's love life since he's been in the spotlight. Earlier reports that he was getting married behind bars were knocked down as false.
Van der Sloot admitted to killing Flores, 21, in his Lima hotel room in 2010. The judges gave him a sentence two years short of the 30-year maximum. They ordered that he be expelled from Peru at the end of his sentence and required him to pay about $74,500 in reparations to Flores' relatives.
Van der Sloot confessed to robbery in addition to murder, admitting that he stole Flores' belongings, including more than $300 in local currency, credit cards and the victim's van as a means to leave the country. He fled to Chile and was arrested a few days later.
Another van der Sloot attorney, Jose Luis Jimenez, has said that his client was under special stress the day of the 2010 murder, which marked five years after Holloway, an 18-year-old from Alabama, disappeared while vacationing on Aruba.
Investigators have said they believe van der Sloot killed Flores after she found something related to the Holloway case on his computer while visiting him in his hotel room. The two met while van der Sloot was in Lima for a poker tournament.
He was caught in a taxi near the Chilean central coastal city of Vina del Mar.
Holloway's body has not been found, and no one has been charged in relation to the case in Aruba.
Natalee's mom to van der Sloot: 'I can't close the book'
In June 2010, a federal grand jury in Alabama indicted van der Sloot after allegations that he tried to extort $250,000 from Holloway's mother, Beth Holloway. Van der Sloot offered to provide what turned out to be bogus information about the whereabouts of Holloway's remains in exchange for the money, according to the indictment.
He was allegedly given $25,000, which authorities say he used to travel to Peru for the poker tournament.
If found guilty of extortion, he could be sentenced to 25 years in prison.

Nice to know CNN has so much love for this fool,to think babies with his gene will live on,Great !
Nice to know you provided CNN with advertising revenue and page ranking just by visiting the site.
Great a next generation psychopath is soon to be born into this world. Just what this world needed.
pbernasc,
Yes, that sometimes can be the case. Don't go spurting off at the mouth, until you're sure you know what you're talking about!
I'm surprised the family in Peru hasn't paid someone on the inside to give him what's coming to him.
eye for an eye right?
Poor kid, it will be screwed up in the head. Why was I born in a prison hospital? What was daddy in jail for? Who is Natalee?
He sloots! He scores!
The chick that's pregnant should have Joran in the other direction.
It boggles my mind that this creep was allowed to pass on his genes.
Abort....I repeat....ABORT!!!!!
BEYOND disgusting. They should execute him - or castrate him. Maybe both. 🙂
What is a "goyim"? There is no such word in English, that I am aware of.
she is probably hot..
Poor little baby. Hope life is kind to it in spite of its loser parents.
how much sicker can this world get? this guy has groupies? they would stone people like this in Bible times, the law is so twisted, how in the hec can someone that just killed another person have any visitation privileges or any privileges at all?
"Van der Sloot became well-known around the world for the murder of Stephany Flores in Peru"
Very misleading. Not tried or convicted. I guess CNN is the judge and jury.
He confessed to the murder of the Peruvian girl. The disappearance of Natalee Holloway remains unsolved. Jeeez, don't you watch LIFETIME?
Uh, he admitted that he killed her.
is it just me or does he look like Dexter in this picture?
you nailed it.
women are freaking nuts
You mean to say "that woman is nuts" Don't put what she did on the whole female population.
No, sockpuppet1984 is correct.
And men like you deserve to be single
