I think it's unikely because this is NOT the type of target that those who enslave women for sexual purposes pick.
The typical MO is to pick someone who is a runaway or otherwise fairly "low profile" -- someone whose family and country won't scream if they disappear.
And frequently they are offered legitimate sounding jobs in another country and they disappear after getting there and taking the job. Locals (even here in the US ) aren't terribly concerned if an immigrant or illegal suddenly vanishes. The assumption is that they ran away and went under cover.
She fits the profile of "rape victim"/"Murder victim" -- someone looking for fun who's willing to go with relative strangers and doesn't inform her group where she's going and who she's with ad when she'll be back. But she's not an unknown runaway.

I don't suppose it's impossible that it did happen in Aruba. After all, young, virgin (you'd think) girl, away from family. Probably an easy target.
If it had happened before on Aruba, we would've known already. There are thousands, or tens of thousands of blond, blue-eyed young virgins here every year and none ever got lost untill now. Furthermore, there are also blond blue-eyed Arubians living here.
Either way, dead or alive I do feel sorry for her. All very sad business. I also feel bad for the Aruban polce, having all that media running around, probably ties up the whole case.
They've never worked under such intense media pressure before. Nobody who's insulting and bashing them constantly, takes that into consideration. They're as competent as the ones in the U.S. and Europe etc..., but the only thing is that they have no experience with such media pressure. The pressure eased a bit after the London bombings.

Furthermore, someone in a sex ring operation has experience, and even if the ones who brought her to the presumed buyer were novices, the presumed buyer would know in a second that this was the wrong kind of person to kidnap.
No, I'm pretty sure she's dead. The question is who and where. And how.
