>>> a new twist in the disappearance of american robyn gardner in aruba . the prime suspect in the case is behind bars , but that could change with a key hearing scheduled for today. jeff rossen has the latest. good morning to you.
>> it may be a holiday in the states, but in aruba it's just another business day . a hearing is scheduled later today for gary giordano . he's been locked up in aruba for 111 days still not charged with anything. prosecutors ask the judge for yet another extension as his lawyers fight to get him out. it is as mysterious as they can. robyn gardner on vacation seemingly happy with gary giordano . one minute enjoying a beachside restaurant in aruba , the next missing, never to be seen again. giordano maintains his innocence, but police won't let him go. today prosecutors will try to convince the judge to hold him behind bars yet another 30 days .
>> we have sufficient information to say that mr. giordano is not telling us the truth.
>> giordano sticks by hi his story that he and robyn were snorkeling in aruba . she was swept under by the current as he got out of the rough water. you can see giordano looking for help in the exclusive surveillance videos minutes after she vanished.
>> the greatest challenge for investigators is trying to show what happened to her. did she run away ? did she walk away ? was she murdered?
>> investigators search the water and the rough terrain surrounding the beach where robyn was last seen. they brought in cadaver dogs. they even staged an elaborate reenactment of the crime, and no sign of robyn . just this week the dutch royal navy searched the sea again.
>> we have the divers going into the water. we use robots to search the water for the body.
>> reporter: giordano 's lawyer says the case against him is thin.
>> on the proof that i've seen, everything up until now that i've seen clears gary giordano and confirms his version of the facts.
>> now with today's hearing experts say the heat is on.
>> i think the aruban government and investigators are under intense pressure to solve this case. we know what happened in the natalee holloway case. we know that there was no one charged in that. i think the aruban government is going to do everything they can to try to get this one right.
>> today's hearing is a big deal . if the judge agrees to keep giordano locked up, this is the final extension. in 30 days prosecutors either have to charge him or let him go. carl, he could face murder or manslaughter charges in aruba .
>> jeff rossen , thanks.
