Why should we A) Believe him when he says she was naked, maybe she was just wearing a bikini or something and he was so wasted he thought she was naked, and B) That he didn't kick her, or hit her with an object or ram her face into the elevator wall? The guy was high and wasted, not the best combo for remembering details.
Look, I am all for the conspiracy theory angle but what does the Mexican government have to gain by pinning this on a Mexican citizen who snuck onto the grounds? If anything that is the last thing they wanted, it would have been better for them if it was some idiot tourist from the resort. Having it being a Mexican citizen is bad for the tourism business, not good...And if you are trying to cover up the crime you pick something that will make you look better, not worse.
As far as I am concerned I think it is very plausible this guy did it. He admits beating her up, but says he didn't try to kill her, if anything I can see the police making him sign the confession saying he tried to kill her because they want to seem hard on criminals (when we all know it isn't true anyway). This dummy is the only person saying she was naked, nothing in the papers or the cops about her being naked...He was drunk and stoned and probably has a blurry vision of how the night went.

By pinnining on a mexican fast it makes it seem that the authorities are obviously on top of things and so it is safe there. Granted if the husband or the like confessed really quickly that would work too but they really can't beat seven shades of poop out of so that is unlikely.
It is also bad if the story lingers on, so if they arrest a gringo that is another year or so of trials and sentancing where the story is in the Canadian press for updates, the husband obviously would complain about being framed by the incompetant mexican police etc which is also bad press foor them.
No, from a mexican point of view getting some local schmoe to confess and the victim out of the country means the story is over. In three weeks time no one will even think about it as they plan their vacation.
