The long-time suspect in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway reportedly admitted he popped three amphetamine pills as he considered what to do with Flores Ramirez' dead body.

He also reportedly told investigators he was high on marijuana when it all happened.

Video from hotel security cameras shows Flores Ramirez and van der Sloot entering his room together at 5 a.m. -- and then shows the 22-year-old leaving alone four hours later with his bags.

"I was going to use one of the traveling bags to take the body out of the hotel," Van der Sloot told police in the disputed confession.

"I didn't because I was afraid to be confronted because I was leaving without paying."

Flores Ramirez was found dead in the hotel room three days later, on June 2, setting off a police manhunt that ended with his arrest in Chile the following day.
