Family, friends watch first court appearance for suspect in Holly Bobo's killing; Zachary Adams pleads not guilty
Mar. 11, 2014 3:20 PM

 ::snipping3::
When Adams entered the courtroom, cameras clicked away while friends and family grimaced. Adams was silent and looked at the ground.
 ::snipping3::
At today’s arraignment, Adams entered a plea of not guilty to both counts. When Judge C. Creed McGinley asked Adams if he understood the charges against him, Adams responded with "Yes, sir.”

Across the courtroom, the Bobo family, including Holly's mother, Karen; father, Dana; and brother, Clint, sat on the front row. Karen Bobo cried, while Clint rubbed his mother's shoulder.

Holly Bobo's cousin country music singer Whitney Duncan also sat on the front row with the family.

McGinley asked Adams to come before the podium facing the judge. Adams walked up with Jennifer Lynn Thompson, a high-profile Nashville attorney, who represented him at the arraignment.

Thompson said Adams was pleading not guilty to both counts and is still held without bond.
 ::snipping3::
Attorney Steve Farese sat beside the Bobo family during the hearing. After the hearing he told the media that he is representing the Bobo family and has done so for about two years.

Farese said has just been advising the family on what the proceedings would be like and what an investigation such as the one into Holly’s disappearance is like.
Farese said he believes many details about Bobo's disappearance will come out in the next 30 days.

Bobo family pastor Don Franks also spoke to the media. He said the family is doing as best as can be expected at this time, and he asked for continuing prayers for the family.

Zach Adams acquired meth while in custody
Mar. 11, 2014 7:21 PM

The man indicted for the aggravated kidnapping and murder of Decatur County woman Holly Bobo somehow acquired meth while in custody the weekend before last.

Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director Mark Gwyn said in a legistlative hearing in Nashville Tuesday that Zach Adams tried to get meth into jail with him.

TBI spokesperson Illana Tate said Tuesday afternoon that when Adams was transferred to Chester County jail on March 1, he was searched and meth was found on his person.

Tate said Adams was charged with meth possession and having meth in the jail. Tate did not know how Adams acquired the methamphetamine, just that the drug was located during the routine search in Chester County jail.

"It was found in his pocket," she said in an email. Chester County jail has made the charges.

911 calls shed light on Zachary Adams' drug problem
Posted: Mar 12, 2014 6:10 PM CDT
Updated: Mar 12, 2014 6:27 PM CDT
Reported by Carley Gordon - email

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is calling the man charged with murdering and kidnapping Holly Bobo a meth addict. While it's unclear if that had anything to do with her death, Channel 4 News has uncovered 911 calls that shed more light on Zachary Adams' drug problem.

The 911 calls expose what the people who love Adams have been dealing with for many years, as the drug profoundly impacted Adams and those around him.

In May 2012, Adams' grandfather, Dick, called for police help, saying Adams was "wild again."

Moments later, Decatur County dispatch received a second call for help from the same address. This time, it was Zachary Adams on the line.

"Um, yes, I need an officer here at 260 Adams Lane," he said. "Dick, he done choked, put his arms around my neck."

The dispatcher asked who was involved.

"This is Zach and Dick. He's been ranting and raving this morning. He's been choking me this morning. And I ain't trying to hit him. He's just acting a fool," Zachary Adams said.

Ultimately, investigators charged Zachary Adams with domestic assault as well as possession of meth and drug paraphernalia.

"I know what he wants me to do. He wants me to hit him so he can put me in jail. I ain't gonna do that," Zachary Adams said in the 911 call.

It's unclear whether Zachary Adams was on meth at the time of that call in May 2012, but it is clear, at the end of it, he is erratic.
 ::snipping3::
The Adams family tells Channel 4 News they've been pressured by the TBI to not comment on anything.

At this point, they feel stuck between a rock and a hard place.

However, they asked us to remind everyone that they're well aware of Zachary Adams' drug problem and don't condone it.

The 911 calls came from an incident that happened two years ago and have nothing to do with the Bobo case

What seems to stand out to me in the "911 call" article is this:   1)  This monster was trying to drive his own grandfather out of his home & has no respect for his family or anyone  2)  ZA is a violent monster with or without the excuse of being addicted to drugs, his violent nature is only enhanced by his drug use not the cause.

Bobo's face might not be shown during murder trial unless law changes

Updated: Mar 12, 2014 6:41 PM CDT

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
It's been a long three years since the disappearance of Holly Bobo. And during that time her face became a familiar image for many people in Middle Tennessee and beyond.

But her face might not be shown in the courtroom at all during the potential murder trial of Zachary Adams.

It's up to a judge whether to allow a victim's photo to be shown during murder trials, and that can be a real source of agony for families.

Now, there's a plan that could change everything.

Chris Davis was a security guard at Shoe Carnival when he was murdered by a teenager for a $40 pair of shoes.

Davis' mom wanted the jury to know how her son looked with love at his newborn baby.

"I felt like the jury needed to see that side. They need to know the human being, the father. The children had their father taken away," said Judy Davis.

But the Tennessee Supreme Court upheld an appeals court ruling that said photographs of murder victims, "have the potential to undermine and place in jeopardy the outcome of the entire judicial proceedings."

Holly Bobo's alleged killer has 14-page rap sheet
Posted March 13, 2014, Updated March 14, 2014

PARSONS, Tenn. -
The man charged in the 2011 kidnapping and murder of Holly Bobo is no stranger to the justice system with a criminal past that dates back years and a rap sheet that is 14 pages long.

As more details emerge, many are wondering why Zachary Adams wasn't in jail to begin with.

In 2011, a woman named Rebecca Earp said in court documents that Adams assaulted her.

Then, in 2004, he shot his own mother, forcing his stepfather to take out an order of protection, saying the family feared for their lives.

A year later, in 2005, Adams' grandparents told police he threatened to shoot them with a shotgun.

Just last month, Adams was arrested for holding a gun to a woman's head.  He also pulled a knife on her and threatened to "gut her," according to documents.  The case is pending.     

Criminal defense attorney Jim Todd previously prosecuted criminal cases in Davidson County.  He isn't involved in the Bobo case but told News 2 Adams wasn't in jail because "that's not the way the criminal justice system works in this country."

"What he has been charged with in the past, none of those charges carried mandatory prison sentences. They were probatable offenses and it looks as if they were reduced and he was offered treatment and rehabilitation programs," Todd explained
.

Adams, 29, appeared before a judge in Decatur County Tuesday and entered a plea of not guilty for aggravated kidnapping and first degree murder.  He is next scheduled to appear in court for a status hearing April 9.

In the meantime, he remains in the Chester County jail without bond.

The investigation into Bobo's murder is ongoing. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has not indicated her body has been found.

Bobo family joins others in pushing for victims' photos bill
March 19, 2014

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
The family of Holly Bobo is speaking out publicly for the first time since a suspect was named in the young nursing student's disappearance and death.
They're not only fighting for justice for Bobo but for murder victims across the state.

The Bobos joined dozens of other families of murder victims to fill a legislative committee room Tuesday, as state lawmakers considered a bill that would allow victims' photos to be shown in their murder trials.

In Tennessee, it's currently up to a judge whether to allow a victim's photo to be shown during murder trials, and that can be a real source of agony for families.

And the Tennessee Supreme Court upheld an appeals court ruling that said photographs of murder victims "have the potential to undermine and place in jeopardy the outcome of the entire judicial proceedings."

Now, there is a strong desire from the grieving families to change that law.

Davidson County District Attorney General candidate Rob McGuire said this is more than an emotional plea. This is legally sound.

"It is absurd to say the pictures of murder victims are irrelevant in their murder trials," he said.

But the two lawyers on the committee think the proposed law change is unconstitutional and would simply lead to convictions being overturned.

In the end, the bill was effectively killed for the session and sent to summer study.
 ::snipping3::
A half dozen DAs in attendance Tuesday vowed to bring the issue back again next year.

Zachary Adams charged with additional count in Bobo case
April 1, 2014

DECATURVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
Zachary Adams, the man charged in connection to the murder of missing nursing student Holly Bobo, has been charged with an additional criminal count Tuesday.

Adams, 29, is now charged with a single count of coercion of witness, according to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

Adams, who is being held at the Chester County Jail without bond, pleaded not guilty last month to kidnapping and murder in Bobo's disappearance.

"We will not tolerate any kind of coercion in criminal cases," TBI Director Mark Gywn said in a press release. "But in a case like this, which has attracted so much interest and required so many resources, rest assured we will fight hard to protect the integrity of our work, as we seek justice for the family and friends of Holly Bobo."

Zachary Adams faces new charge in Holly Bobo case; TBI: 'We will not tolerate any kind of coercion'
April 2, 2014

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said Zachary Adams, the man charged with kidnapping and killing Decatur County woman Holly Bobo, also has coerced a witness in the case.

The agency announced Tuesday that Adams is now also charged in Decatur County with coercion of a witness. The TBI declined to name the witness or to provide details of how or when Adams is accused of coercing the witness.

The announcement follows Adams’ indictment on March 5 by a Decatur County grand jury on the charges of felony first-degree murder and especially aggravated kidnapping of Bobo.

A news release on Tuesday from the TBI said that “in recent weeks” additional information was developed that led agents to secure a warrant on the new charge.
 ::snipping3::
Investigators have said they believe Adams killed Bobo in the perpetration of the kidnapping. The TBI has not commented on whether Bobo’s body has been found, how she was killed, or a motive for the killing. Investigators have said it is possible additional suspects could be charged.
 ::snipping3::
Adams was served with the additional coercion warrant on Tuesday and continues to be held in the Chester County Jail without bond. He has been incarcerated since he was arrested Feb. 28 on a charge of assault against a Camden woman.

TBI officials have said Adams also faces charges for allegedly bringing meth into the Chester County Jail, where authorities said he was transferred because of overcrowding in the Decatur County Jail. Adams was searched during the transfer on March 1, and meth was found on his person, the TBI said.

Warrant: Adams tried to threaten his brother not to talk about Holly Bobo case
April 2, 2014

The witness Zachary Adams is accused of coercing in the Holly Bobo case is Adams’ brother, according to a warrant filed today in Decatur County court.

In the warrant, investigators said Adams told another inmate at the Chester County Jail to pass along a message to his brother, according to a Nashville TV stations WKRN, WSMV and News Channel 5, which obtained a copy of the warrant.

The message Adams allegedly gave the other inmate on March 4 was to threaten harm to Adams’ brother if he talked about Bobo case.

The message was, "Tell my brother he is the one who started all this (expletive) and if he don't shut his mouth he will be in the hole beside her,” according to the warrant.

The inmate Adams allegedly gave the message to was being transferred to the Obion County Jail, where Adams’ brother is being held. The other inmate reported the conversation to the TBI, according to the warrant.

The TBI said Tuesday that Zachary Adams, 29, faces a charge of coercion of a witness in addition to charges of the murder and kidnapping of Bobo. The TBI has declined to make further comment about the new charge.

Holly Bobo's alleged killer tried to threaten brother, report says
Posted April 1, 2014, Updated April 2, 2014

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -
The man charged with the 2011 kidnapping and murder of nursing student Holly Bobo tried to threaten his brother, according to an arrest warrant for coercion of witness obtained by News 2 Wednesday.

The document, an affidavit of complaint filed Tuesday, April 1, states Zachary Adams tried to get a message to his brother, who is in custody in the Obion County jail, through another inmate and said, "Tell my brother he is the one who started all this s#%t and if he don't shut his mouth he will be in the hole beside her."

The arrest warrant states Adams made the statement to the inmate on March 4.  At the time, Adams thought the inmate was going to be transferred to the Obion County jail.

The inmate reported it the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation and another inmate, who overheard the statement, corroborated it to a special agent with the agency.

The TBI stated in the affidavit that Adams was trying to coerce or influence a witness in the judicial proceeding involving the Holly Bobo case.

Coercion of a witness is a Class D felony.

Adams, 29, pleaded not guilty to charges of first degree murder and especially aggravated kidnapping in the case last month and remains in the Chester County jail without bond.

He is next scheduled to appear in court for a status hearing April 9.

John Dylan Adams, left, and Zachary Adams 

 ::snipping3::
John Dylan Adams is being held in Obion County on federal charges involving a Sept. 16 indictment that charges the younger Adams knowingly “possessed, received, concealed, stored, bartered, sold and disposed of a stolen firearm” on or about July 13, 2013, along with a Jason Kilzer.

The indictment said a .38-caliber revolver was shipped and transported in interstate commerce with knowledge that it was stolen. John Dylan Adams was also charged with receiving and possessing the firearm through interstate commerce with the serial number removed, obliterated or altered.

He was charged with aiding and abetting Kilzer and giving Kilzer the gun after knowing it was illegal for Kilzer to own the gun.

The indictment said John Dylan Adams was an unlawful user of controlled substances or an addict.

John Dylan Adams is being represented in the federal case by M. Diane Smothers, a federal public defender. Prior to the most recent charge of coercion of a witness against Zachary Adams, Smothers told a Jackson Sun reporter in mid-March that she did not wish to comment on the Holly Bobo case and that John Dylan Adam would not be available for an interview.

The Madison County Sheriff’s Department arrested John Dylan Adams in Madison County on Sept. 25 and turned him over to the U.S. Marshals Service after an arrest warrant was issued on Sept. 16.

Supporters plan 'Justice for Holly' Bobo rally
April 4, 2014

 ::snipping3::
White said she and Franks came up with the idea for another rally, a “Justice for Holly” rally. The rally will begin at Corinth Baptist Church on Saturday with a noon prayer time, followed by a 1 p.m. community vigil.

At 1:30 p.m., cars, motorcycles and trucks will be decorated for a parade that will leave the church, drive through the community, circle the Decatur County Courthouse and drive back.

White said she is asking the community to come pray for justice for Bobo and the investigation, and then join the parade in support for the Bobo family.
 ::snipping3::

Now, White said, the awareness colors for Bobo will change. New shirts and ribbons that say “Justice for Holly” will be lime green and pink. She said Corporate Image, a custom screen printing and embroidery business in Lexington, has already sold 2,000 shirts.

White said that other than the production costs, all the proceeds from the shirts’ sales have gone to the Bobo family to ease financial struggles that have come from searching for Bobo and to assist with costs that might come from a possible future trial.

White said a “Justice for Holly” fund has been set up at the church.

Franks said Saturday is going to be all about “praying for the family, praying for investigators and praying for justice.”

“We want to make sure the family gets justice and sees closure,” White said.

Holly Bobo Suspect Misses Court, Faces Witness Coercion Charge
4/9/14

The man accused of murdering Tennessee nursing student Holly Bobo still has not retained an attorney, it was revealed Wednesday, even as he faces an additional charge related to threatening to kill his brother.

Zachary Rye Adams, 29, wasn’t required to appear in Decatur County court, prompting Circuit Judge C. Creed McGinley to announce he would force the suspect to attend future status hearings. An attorney represented Adams in court Wednesday, but the convicted felon hasn’t officially retained her, reported The Jackson Sun.

“Until Mr. Adams is present, I am limited in what I can do,” McGinley said.

The state has refused to begin discovery in the case until Adams retains a lawyer, according to NBC affiliate WSMV.

Adams pleaded not guilty last month for the kidnapping and first-degree murder of Bobo, who was 20 when she vanished from her home in western Tennessee on April 13, 2011.

Authorities have not revealed why they believe Adams is a suspect, and have not said whether they have recovered Bobo’s body.   ::snipping3::

Zach Adams Does Not Appear At Hearing, Has 3 Weeks To Hire Attorney
April 9, 2014

DECATURVILLE, Tenn. -- Zach Adams was scheduled to make his next appearance in Decatur County Circuit Court Wednesday morning, however he did not appear.

Judge Creed McGinley said in court Wednesday that he regretted granting Adams' request to waive his appearance and said that he would appear at all further hearings.

"I wish I had not accepted that waiver because the court would like to address him because the onus is on him to secure council," said Judge McGinley.

"He put his foot down and said he will be here," said Bobo Supporter Tammy Ramey. "He should have to face everyone that was in there and not get to sit in his little cell."

Adams has not retained an attorney. Nashville Attorney Jennifer Lynn Thompson told the court an agreement has not been finalized due to financial reasons. Judge McGinley set another hearing for Wednesday April 30 at which time Adams will have a public defender appointed to him if he has still not retained one.

"I'm truly interested in moving this case along as I told you on the front end and I cannot go through a process where we come in every 30 days and we are not doing anything," said Judge McGinley.
 ::snipping3::
Decatur County Public Defender Guy Wilkerson, recused himself from from the case so a public defender from another county will be appointed if Adams is unable to hire an attorney.

"It's just frustrating you know Holly has already been through so much, the family has already been through so much its time to get it stated and over with," said Mary-Beth Helms, Holly's Friend.

Who saw Holly Bobo alive after she disappeared? New details Thursday on NewsChannel 5 at 10 #hollybobo

Bobo disappeared from her home in Parsons, Tenn., about 110 miles southwest of Nashville, in April 2011. Her brother told police he saw a man in camouflage leading her into the woods surrounding the family home.

In announcing the charges against Adams last week, District Attorney General Hansel McCadams said the grand jury felt there was enough evidence to prove that Bobo was "forcefully taken from her home without her consent" and "killed in the perpetration of that kidnapping."
Investigators have not commented on what led to the charges against Adams and they have not revealed whether Bobo's body has been found. A possible motive also has not been named in the case.

Adams' property in Decatur County is about 15 miles from Bobo's home but Cindy Adams, Zachary's mother, has said the two did not run in the same circles. ::snipping3::

So They didn't find her body?

New Details That Led To Arrest In Holly Bobo Case

Posted: Apr 23, 2014 5:35 PM CST Updated: Apr 24, 2014 10:13 PM CST
 
 
by Nick Beres

DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. - New details uncovered by NewsChannel 5 shed light on what may have led to the arrest of Zach Adams for the murder of Holly Bobo.

Bobo disappeared three years ago, and earlier this year the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation charged Adams with the crime.  The key to the case could be his brother Dylan Adams.

"The brother is now a witness and a key witness in this prosecution," said NewsChannel 5 legal analyst Nick Leonardo.

The brothers lived with their grandfather, Dick Adams, in separate homes on a piece of property near Decaturville. The TBI searched the property in February, not long before Zach Adams was arrested. So what led authorities to Adams and the property?

In an exclusive interview with NewsChannel 5, the grandfather dropped a bombshell: His grandson Dylan told the TBI he saw Holly Bobo inside his brother Zach's house after she disappeared.

"I believe that Mr. Adams' brother stated that Holly Bobo was seen in the house alive," said Leonardo.

 ::snipping3::

"This is but one piece of the puzzle we are getting but it's all coming together very quickly," said Leonardo.


Not long after the TBI arrested Zach for Bobo's murder they said he threatened his brother sending a message through another inmate: "He's the one who started this s*** and if he don't shut his mouth he will be in the hole beside her."

The "her" may be Holly Bobo.

And NewsChannel 5 has learned the "hole" could refer to one of the water wells on Adams' property. The grandfather confirmed there are two: One is 15 feet down to a shallow spring. The other is much deeper. Both capable of hiding a body.

"Absolutely, especially a well that goes down 80 feet. That's especially a place of interest," said Leonardo.

In fact, the grandfather confirmed the TBI used backhoes to dig up and search both wells. There was no indication they found a body. But several sources close to the investigation said they recovered some type of physical evidence -- possibly bone fragments.  If that's true the question is: Did the fragments come from Holly Bobo?

"Obviously they are waiting to see if there's a forensic match with Holly's DNA that comes back from the lab," said Leonardo.

Thank you for the update with new details, texasmom.  I hope there is enough evidence for justice for Holly. It's bad enough a young, vibrant woman was taken from this life, and even worse if those responsible escape justice.

They've got him, pretty confident they have a ton more than we think....justice couldnt come fast enough!   He probably raped her & then after he killed her thru her in "the hole," ugh this guy is pure evil, drug addiction NOT being an excuse for any of his behavior, he's a monster!!  ::MonkeyMad::

Hi Babs!  :smt006  I just saw a similar headline on the news.  TBI and other authorities have been really tight lipped about this case since the arrest of Zachary Adams.  I wonder what we're going to learn today and if there will be or have been more arrests?

Grand jury meeting today in connection with Holly Bobo case; coercion of witness charge against Zachary Adams sent to grand jury
April 29, 2014 11:09 a.m.



DECATURVILLE -- A grand jury will meet at 1 p.m. today in Decatur County to consider additional charges in the Holly Bobo case, officials told The Jackson Sun.

Following the grand jury meeting, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has said it will announce new and significant developments in the Bobo case at a news conference at 4 p.m. today.

One suspect, Zachary Adams, already has been charged with murder and kidnapping of the 20-year-old Decatur County nursing student.

Zachary Adams appeared in court this morning for a preliminary hearing on a charge of coercion of a witness in the case. Adams is accused of trying to send a message to his brother, John Dylan Adams, threatening him if he talked about the Bobo case.

After hearing testimony today, the judge sent the coercion of a witness charge to the grand jury.

Zachary Adams also is scheduled to appear in Decatur County Court on Wednesday for a status hearing on the murder and kidnapping charges in the Bobo case.

Another unrelated charge of aggravated assault that Zachary Adams had faced has been dismissed after alleged victim Amber Bray requested that he not be prosecuted on that charge, according to court officials
 ::snipping3::
This afternoon, TBI Director Mark Gwyn and District Attorney General Hansel McCadams will discuss the new developments and field questions from members of the media.

The news conference will promptly begin at 4 p.m. at the Decatur County Sheriff’s Office, 138 E. Main St., Decaturville.
 ::snipping3::
The Holly Bobo case remains active and ongoing. The TBI urges anyone with information about the case to call 1-800-TBI-FIND (824-3463). A reward remains in place for information leading to additional arrests in the case.

Maybe to escape the death penalty one of them will divulge where she is so her family can give her a proper burial.  I have chills reading this.  I cannot believe the "good ole boy" network kept people from speaking up earlier.  Especially now knowing there are witnesses who saw her alive AFTER she went missing.  God in heaven.  Sick.

Friends coming to terms with reality in Holly Bobo case
Posted: Mar 06, 2014 7:54 PM CDT Updated: Mar 20, 2014 7:54 PM CST
Reported by Dennis Ferrier -

 ::snipping3::

One of Adams' best friends, by all accounts, is Jason Autry, who is currently serving 15 years to life in prison with 26 felonies on his record.

But Autry, while he was in the Decatur County Jail, became a born-again Christian, apologizing and repenting for his sins and transgressions.

And it's interesting to note that Autry has recently been transferred for undisclosed reasons from the Decatur County Jail to the Carroll County Jail.

TBI Announces New Charges, Second Subject in Ongoing Holly Bobo Case

Posted on April 29, 2014    by Josh DeVine
DECATURVILLE, TENN.-The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has obtained new indictments and a second arrest in connection to the disappearance and murder of Holly Bobo.

In recent weeks, TBI Special Agents developed enough evidence and information to prompt the District Attorney General to solicit a special grand jury. This afternoon, at 1:00 PM, the special Decatur County Grand Jury convened to hear the case presentation from a TBI Special Agent. The grand jury subsequently returned indictments for Jason Wayne Autry, 39, of Holladay, charging him with one count of Especially Aggravated Kidnapping and one count of First Degree Felony Murder.

Autry, who has a lengthy criminal history, is currently being held in the Riverbend Maximum Security Institution in Davidson County on an unrelated Aggravated Assault conviction. The District Attorney General for the 24th Judicial District, Hansel McCadams, will prosecute the new charges.

Second man, Jason Wayne Autry, faces murder charge in Holly Bobo case
Brian Wilson, brwilson@tennessean.com 4:50 p.m. CDT April 29, 2014

A second man has been arrested in the alleged kidnapping and death of Holly Bobo.

Jason Wayne Autry, 39, of Holladay, Tenn., was indicted by a grand jury on Tuesday afternoon on first-degree murder and especially aggravated kidnapping charges, according to Tennessee Bureau of Investigation director Mark Gwyn.
 ::snipping3::
Gwyn also said Bobo's body has not yet been located, though investigators have physical evidence in the case.

In a statement released this morning, the TBI said the investigation "remains active and ongoing." Additional arrests and indictments could still be issued, Gwyn said.

"Anyone that had anything to do with Holly Bobo's case will by prosecuted," Gwyn said.

Exclusive: Man who had received immunity is a third target in Bobo investigation
April 29, 2014

Prosecutors plan to indict at least one more person in the Holly Bobo case, according to documents obtained today by The Jackson Sun.

According to the documents, prosecutors plan to indict Shayne Kyle Austin, who previously had been granted immunity in exchange for his cooperation in the investigation.

The state voided the immunity agreement because Austin was not completely truthful and forthcoming, according to an email from Assistant District Attorney General Beth Boswell to Austin’s lawyer, Luke Evans. The email was sent on March 27.

“When we indict your client, I will give you a courtesy call informing you,” Boswell told Evans in the email.

The Jackson Sun went to an address listed for Austin on whitepages.com, but the property was enclosed in a fence, and the driveway was blocked by a locked gate. The listing did not include a telephone number. Evans did not respond to a telephone message left at his office seeking comment.

Austin would be the third person indicted in the abduction and killing of Bobo. Jason Wayne Autry was indicted today on charges of first-degree murder and especially aggravated kidnapping. Zachary Adams was indicted on the same charges in March.
 ::snipping3::
Boswell’s email indicating the intent to indict Austin was included with documents filed by Austin’s lawyer in Decatur County Chancery Court on April 1. The documents seek a restraining order and temporary injunction to keep prosecutors from violating the immunity agreement and indicting Austin.

According to the documents, Austin received immunity in the Bobo investigation in an agreement signed on March 6. The agreement gave Austin immunity from any criminal charges arising from the Bobo case.

More specifically, the agreement said, “In exchange for the total cooperation of Shayne Kyle Austin, the State agrees to grant him immunity for all charges arising out of the disposal, destruction, burial and/or concealment of Holly Bobo’s deceased body, conditioned upon him assisting us in recovering the body of Holly Bobo.”

Attorney: Third man to be charged soon in Bobo investigation
April 29, 2014

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
A third man is about to be arrested in the Holly Bobo murder investigation, according to that man's attorney.

Shayne Kyle Austin, 29, had signed an immunity agreement, according to his lawyer, Luke Evans, but now that agreement may be null and void for untruthfulness.

It is a complicated and unexpected turn in a case that is rapidly developing.

Earlier Tuesday, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation announced indictments of especially aggravated kidnapping and first-degree felony murder against Jason Wayne Autry, 39, in Bobo's disappearance.

Autry is currently imprisoned at Riverbend State Penitentiary on an assault charge, and he is due for an arraignment Wednesday along with fellow suspect Zachary Adams, who was previously charged with kidnapping and murder in the Bobo case.

As first reported by the Jackson Sun, Evans says Austin signed an agreement to testify against the other accused killers in exchange for immunity from prosecutors, but the district attorney emailed Evans that the deal was off.

In a statement to Channel 4 News late Tuesday, Evans said:

"My client takes issue with the state's assertion that he was untruthful and not forthcoming. My client has remained in full compliance with the agreement he entered into with the state of Tennessee. I expect them to honor his agreement. We're set to have a hearing on my client's request for an injunctive release regarding the state's attempt to breach the immunity agreement next month."

Again, according to Evans, the district attorney's office says the immunity agreement was based on complete truthfulness, and the D.A. believes Austin lied about what happened.

We had bad weather yesterday, tonight I caught all this on the local news.  I wish I could say Im stunned but Im not, disgusted & furious would describe how Im feeling.  When it was announced that Zackary's bro was interrogated we could get the sense that he knew something was going on or worse yet, knows more than he's admitted already.   Why do I say that, because he would have had to see the other two now being charged there as well, as least that is logically what I'm thinking had to have happened.  Zackary's brother had to have known there was no reasonable explanation for Holly to be with them, especially considering the hour she was abducted, nope he had to have seen more than we are aware of so far.  These monsters put this beautiful young woman thru horror, it might just be as gruesome as we have feared.   I hope their "evil boy club" all fry for it.   To me, it doesnt matter who had what part in it at this point...from the moment she was taken from her own home, they all knew what they were doing was with heinous intent.   The fact that there is a reported known family relation involving one of these monsters to the Bobo family only makes her kidnapping, murder, possibly even gang rape even more diabolic.  The fact that Jason self-proclaims himself to be a born again Christian now while already in prison means nothing to me, it doesnt absolve him any less.  Their collective long-term hard drug use also has no bearing to me whatsoever, they still knew what they were doing & their addiction should have no mitigating consideration, IMHO.   If anything, I grow more and more disgusted that our country's society in large part let this revolving door attitude continue with leniency & way too many sympathizers.

2nd person charged with murder of Holly Bobo, 3rd likely
Posted: Apr 29, 2014 8:36 AM CDT
Updated: Apr 29, 2014 10:20 PM


DECATURVILLE, Tenn. - A second person was charged Tuesday with the 2011 kidnapping and murder of nursing student Holly Bobo and more arrests are likely.

Jason Autry, 39, was indicted on charges of especially aggravated kidnapping and first degree felony murder Tuesday afternoon.  He was already behind bars at Riverbend Maximum Security Institution in Nashville on an unrelated aggravated assault conviction. He is now being held without bond.

“As with Mr. [Zach] Adams, my office will evaluate this case as a death penalty qualify case and make a decision once the criteria have been received and evaluated,” District Attorney Hansel McCadams

Tuesday night, The Jackson Sun reported a third man, Shayne Austin, will also be indicted in the case.

The newspaper stated Austin was initially granted immunity in exchange for his cooperation in the investigation but it has since been revoked.

Bobo disappeared from her home on Swan Johnson Road outside Parsons on the morning of April 13, 2011.

Zachary Adams was arrested earlier this year on charges of first degree murder and especially aggravated kidnapping.

Adams is also charged with coercion of a witness.  A grand jury returned an indictment on the charge Tuesday. Adams remains in the Chester County jail without bond.

SECOND INDIVIDUAL CHARGED IN CASE OF MISSING HOLLY BOBO … MORE TO COME.

39 year old Jason Wayne Autry has been charged with aggravated kidnapping and first degree murder in the 2011 disappearance of Tennessee nursing student Holly Bobo.  Autry was  already in prison, currently serving a three-year sentence in Riverbend Maximum Security Institution, for an unrelated assault conviction. Previously, Zachary Adams was indicted last month on the same kidnapping and murder charges. Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director Mark Gwyn stated that he believes that there are more people with information and possible involvement said, “expect more announcements in the coming days and weeks.” Holly Bobo went missing on April 13, 2011 in Darden, Tennessee.

According to the documents, prosecutors plan to indict Shayne Kyle Austin, who previously had been granted immunity in exchange for his cooperation in the investigation.

Its all starting to unravel for these murders.

Eventually one will flip to get life in prison, rather than the death penalty and we will find out where Holly Bobo's body is.

Its taken some time but looks like there will be Justice for Holly!

Second man charged in Holly Bobo's disappearance
Posted: Apr 29, 2014 10:10 AM CDT
Updated: Apr 30, 2014 9:59 AM CDT

DECATURVILLE, Tenn. (FOX13) - Jason Autry, 39, has been charged with first-degree murder and especially aggravated kidnapping in the 2011 disappearance of nursing student Holly Bobo, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said during a news conference Tuesday in Decaturville.

Autry is the second person charged in the disappearance of the 20-year-old. Zachary Adams was charged in March with kidnapping and murdering Bobo.

"We have sworn statements from witnesses that saw Holly Bobo in the presence of both Zachary Adams and Jason Autry after her disappearance. Alive," said TBI Director Mark Gwyn.

But this is not the first crime Adams and Autry are connected to: Back in 2007 court documents show they were arrested for burglary, evading arrest and theft.

Autry also has an eight page rap sheet dating back to 1998 listing charges including possession of a firearm with intent, aggravated burglary, domestic assault, simple possession and an aggravated assault charge for which he's currently serving three years in Riverbend Maximum Security Prison.

Decatur County District Attorney General Hansel McCadams added, "He also must complete the remainder of a 100 month sentence he is serving from a federal court conviction arising out of a Decatur County .... U.S. Department of Alcohol and Firearms case."

This latest arrest will not be the last according to the TBI.

Former inmate testifies against man charged with Holly Bobo's murder
Posted: Apr 29, 2014 8:11 PM CDT
Updated: Apr 29, 2014 09:56 PM

DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. - Zach Adams, the man charged with the kidnapping and murder of Holly Bobo, appeared in a Decatur County courtroom Tuesday.

The 29-year-old watched as former inmate Sean Cooper testified against him by detailing a conversation between himself and Adams on March 4.

Both men were scheduled for court and met in a holding cell when the conversation allegedly took place .

Cooper said Tuesday that Adams introduced himself as “the Bobo guy” and then asked him to deliver a message to his brother, Dylan Adams, who was being held in a penal institution in Obion County.

Cooper said he was then asked to tell Adams’ brother to stop talking about the Bobo case.

“He said 'Well, you tell him, you get a message to [give] him. You tell that son of a b*%$! to keep his d*%@ mouth shut because he's the reason I’m in this s*&% and if he don't shut up, he'll be in the hole next to her," Cooper recalled.

He continued, “Yeah, I thought it was odd. Why would somebody even say that? That’s why I’m sitting here telling the truth today. It’s so odd. If she wasn’t in a hole, well how are you [going to] put your brother there, too?”

Adams is charged with coercion of a witness for threatening his own brother, who is a witness in the case.

The judge denied Johnson’s motion to have it thrown out because it happened in Chester County.

Holly Bobo Case: Third Indictment Coming
Posted on: 9:06 pm, April 29, 2014, by Ashley Crockett and Michael Smith, updated on: 09:18am, April 30, 2014

 ::monkeyscissors::

(WREG-TV) News Channel 3 has confirmed investigators plan to indict a third suspect in the kidnapping and murder of Holly Bobo.
Shayne Kyle Austin was granted immunity, but investigators say he did not tell them the truth, breaking their agreement.
His lawyer, Luke Evans, tells us that agreement meant Austin would not face any criminal charges, in exchange for total cooperation.

The Jackson Sun reported the agreement said, “In exchange for the total cooperation of Shayne Kyle Austin, the State agrees to grant him immunity for all charges arising out of the disposal, destruction, burial and/or concealment of Holly Bobo’s deceased body, conditioned upon him assisting us in recovering the body of Holly Bobo.”
The agreement also said the state would give Austin immunity for information concerning the “possession of any controlled substances, the sale of any controlled substances, the possession of drug paraphernalia, and/or any other drug related criminal activity (not to include any drugs administered to Holly Lynn Bobo.)”

Jason is still complaining about removing his cuffs & he is proclaiming "my hand before God, Im innocent of these charges"   As he leaves the SOB is smiling and laughing toward the audience.   He's yelling "I need help"

The State is discussing what is necessary regarding discovery, judge urges it to furnished to the defense by 60 days     The judge will NOT allow Zach Adams to waive any appearances to do with his case.   Now the defense attorney wants equal time after receiving said discovery, the judge is giving up to 60 days.

The judge took note that Zach appears to not be paying attention & asks his attorney if he is paying attention then eyeballs him to address him as to the importance of him understanding what is being said in his case.  This judge appears to be on top of things & will take no nonsense.

Zach's attorney claims that he signed land over to his grandfather in order to retain her....hmmmmm

360,000 pages of documents estimated, she's complaining already that his family wont have enough to pay her (I hate her already)

She is now complaining about Zach's isolation conditions in jail, claiming she wants another computer in the jail for him to be able to review the discovery (as if this monster would comprehend 90% of it, geez)

State insists she file a motion & it is then held over to be discussed then....defense attorney is looking for him to be allowed writing instruments.

Sidebar thought:   the fact that Jason was asking for his cuffs to be removed raises a red flag to me

Holly Bobo Suspect: “Right hand to God I’m innocent”
Posted on: 12:57 pm, April 30, 2014, by George Brown, updated on: 01:37pm, April 30, 2014

(Decatur County, TN) The two men indicted for the disappearance and presumed murder of  Holly Bobo are in court.

Zach Adams and Jason Autry are both charged with felony first degree murder and aggravated kidnapping.

Autry, who was indicted yesterday, told the judge, “I’m innocent of these charges. Right hand to God I’m innocent”

Autry also told the judge the handcuffs were cutting off blood to his hands and he cannot afford an attorney.

The court entered a ‘not guilty’ plea for Autry, since he seemed unsure about the charges he faces.

Autry said he is not sure his family can afford a private attorney at which time the judge urged him to do his best, “I don’t have to tell you these are very serious charges. I urge you to secure counsel.”

Autry, who is already in jail for drug charges, will be back in court June 4 at 1 p.m.

Zach Adams entered a not guilty plea on a coercion of a witness charge.

Adams reportedly sent a threat to his brother warning him not to talk with investigators.

Adams previously entered a not guilty plea to the murder and kidnapping charges.

An attorney for Adams said he has been in isolation in the Chester County Jail without access to pencil or paper which the attorney said he needs to provide notes to his attorney.

Adams will also be back in court June 4.

We have learned a third man, Shane Kyle Austin, will soon be indicted.

Austin was initially given but prosecutors say he violated the deal but not telling the truth.

The deal was to prevent him for being charged, “In exchange for the total cooperation of Shayne Kyle Austin, the State agrees to grant him immunity for all charges arising out of the disposal, destruction, burial and/or concealment of Holly Bobo’s deceased body, conditioned upon him assisting us in recovering the body of Holly Bobo.”

Adams was arraigned on the newest charge of coercion of a witness, which he entered a not guilty plea. Adams reportedly asked an unnamed inmate to - "Tell my brother he is the one who started this (expletive) and if he don't shut his mouth he will be in the hole beside her."

During the arraignment, his legal counsel brought up multiple concerns, including the fact that her client could not review the evidence in his case. She suggested that she give Adams a computer. The judge that this would be a concern taken up at the next hearing.

Adams is due back in court on June 4, at the same time Autry will appear .

Adams legal counsel also claimed he cannot afford to retain his counsel and was declared indigent. He was also ordered by the judge to appear in each subsequent court appearance.

yup, an "evil boy's club"

I've seen another "A" name mentioned with this group, wonder if he'll be the next one charged?

IIRC, the same poster referred to them as the 4 A's.

This isn't where I read it originally, can't find that post right now.  But he's mentioned here too.

(WMC) - The two men charged in connection to the 2011 disappearance of nursing student Holly Bobo both appeared in court Wednesday at 1 p.m.

First to appear was Jason W. Autry, who heard the charges against him and entered a plea. The court entered a "not guilty" plea on his behalf. Afterward, Autry told the judge he is innocent of those charges.

More than once, Autry asked the judge to allow someone to uncuff him because his "hands are turning purple" and he hasn't "been able to feel them since he left Nashville."

The judge disregarded Autry's request and continued on with the hearing.

Before leaving the courtroom, Autry declared his innocence once again.

"I want to say again, I'm innocent of these charges," he said to the judge. "Hand before God, I'm innocent, sir."

Autry is due back in court on June 4 at 1 p.m. for a hearing to determine whether he can obtain private counsel.

Zachary Adams appeared in front of the judge after a short recess. This time, he had an attorney with him who entered a "not guilty" plea on his behalf on the coercion of a witness charge.

The prosecutor was asked to furnish "everything she can" to his attorney in 60 days. The judge said he will not take up anything that has to do with Adams' case without him being present in court.

Adams' attorney also suggested providing her client with paper and pencil, or moving him to a facility that allows such resources, so that he can write down his thoughts as she prepares his defense. That matter, along with the other questions she had for the judge, will be addressed in the future.

Bobo friend describes man in camouflage at coon hunt
April 30, 2014

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
A third name has emerged in the investigation into Holly Bobo's disappearance. Shayne Austin will be indicted, according to the district attorney, and Austin's attorney has filed suit to block an arrest.
At the same time, a friend of Bobo's says she saw a man who looked a lot like Austin stalking them days before Bobo went missing.

Candace Wood wonders now if she was witness to the beginning of the awful events. Her story is simple and chilling now that we know so much more.

Wood was on a double-date with Bobo, her childhood friend, at the Decatur County coon hunt in 2011.

As you can imagine, it was crowded, but something made Wood look behind her - you know how you feel staring eyes.

"He had this look like he was staring at us. I had never seen this guy before," Wood said. "He just kept staring at us. He had his phone in his ear. He would look down and up, look down and up, and look back four or five times. The fourth or fifth time I got that eerie feeling, that creepy feeling he was looking at me or Holly."

Four days later, Bobo was abducted by a man in camouflage, and that detail stopped Wood cold because of the man she saw at the coon hunt.

"He was wearing camouflage from head to toe," Wood said. "I couldn't shake it off - couldn't sleep. I had to report it to the [Tennessee Bureau of Investigation]."

Wood says she reported what happened at the command station. Keep in mind, this was the day after Bobo disappeared.

"It played back in my mind. Something wasn't right. Something wasn't happening. I couldn't shake the feeling of what was wrong," Wood said.

Two months later, Wood says, the TBI called her back to sit with a sketch artist.

Channel 4 News interviewed Wood last month in connection with our investigation, and she said she is still haunted by the memory.

"I have that guilt every day. I should have protected Holly. I should have told her. I didn't have the courage to do it. I miss her. Everyone misses her," Wood said.

Meanwhile, attorney Luke Evans has filed a multi-count lawsuit against the state of Tennessee on behalf of his client, Shayne Austin, based on the immunity agreement he signed on March 6 - one week after the TBI announced indictments against the first man arrested in the case, Zach Adams.

On Tuesday, the TBI said a second man, Jason Autry, has also been indicted in Bobo's disappearance.

Prosecutor can't comment on 3rd man; District attorney seeks dismissal of complaint over voided immunity deal in Bobo case
May 1, 2014 4:30 AM

District Attorney General Hansel McCadams said Wednesday he could not comment on whether his office plans to present charges against Shayne Austin to a grand jury in the Holly Bobo case.

The district’s attorney office is seeking dismissal of a complaint Austin’s attorney filed in Decatur County Chancery Court. The complaint states that prosecutors told Austin’s attorney they plan to indict Austin after nullifying an immunity agreement they had offered him in exchange for his cooperation in the investigation of Bobo’s kidnapping and murder.

“The grand jury is a separate body from Chancery Court,” McCadams said on Wednesday. “It is totally separate. When we plan to indict someone, it is a complete secret, and the first to know about it is the grand jury, then the person who is indicted. We are prohibited by law from saying who will be indicted.”

Austin’s attorney, Luke Evans, filed the complaint on April 1 asking the Chancery Court for a restraining order and temporary injunction to keep prosecutors from indicting Austin, according to court documents obtained by The Jackson Sun

whoever it was prob didnt come forward right away, then maybe LE was getting close,

3rd man could face charges in missing student case
Updated 4:04 pm, Wednesday, April 30, 2014

 ::snipping3::
A third defendant could face charges in the case after prosecutors revoked an immunity agreement that had been worked out for him.

The March 6 agreement granted Shayne Austin, 29, of Decatur County, immunity from various charges, including "all charges arising out of the disposal, destruction, burial, and/or concealment of Holly Bobo's deceased body," according to documents filed in Decatur County Chancery Court and posted online by The Jackson Sun, which first reported them.

The agreement was dependent on Bobo's body being recovered from the place where Austin said it was buried.

The immunity agreement also includes a provision to grant Austin immunity for drug-related criminal activity "not to include any drugs administered to Holly Lynn Bobo."

Bobo disappeared from her family's home near Parsons on the morning of April 13, 2011. Her brother told police that he saw a man dressed in camouflage leading her away into the woods. Since then, investigators and volunteers have scoured the woods and fields of the town of about 2,400 for clues. Investigators said Tuesday that they have not yet recovered Bobo's body.

Documents show Austin met with Tennessee Bureau of Investigation agents the same day the agreement was signed. Later that evening, Assistant District Attorney General Beth Boswell sent an email to Austin's attorney, Luke Evans, saying that Austin was not "truthful, candid, forthcoming or cooperative" and therefore "not compliant with the immunity agreement."

Austin filed a lawsuit on April 1 to force the state to grant him immunity. The lawsuit contends that he has complied with the terms of the agreement and that Austin waived his constitutional protections, including the right not to incriminate himself, to get immunity. It claims the government is in breach of contract for reneging on its obligations under the agreement.

A hearing date is set for May 27.

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. - Exclusive video highlights the checkered past of a man now at the center of the Holly Bobo murder case. Newschannel 5 obtained police car video showing the arrest of Shayne Austin during a traffic stop in Murfreesboro in 2009.

"He was stopped for DUI and it was his third violation," said Kyle Evans with the Murfreesboro Police Dept.

At the time he was a student at MTSU. A year later he was arrested again for wandering down a city street at 3:15 a.m. with a loaded 12-gauge shotgun.

"During his time here in Murfreesboro Austin had several run-ins with law enforcement," said Evans, who said it's no surprise to learn he may be involved now in the Holly Bobo case.

So far Zach Adams and Jason Autry are both charged with Bobo's murder. Austin-- believed to be childhood friends with the two suspects -- had been granted immunity if he could lead the TBI to Bobo's body. In fact, sources tell Newschannel5 a tip from Austin helped lead to a massive search of Adams' property back in February. No body was found. The immunity was revoked. And Austin could now face charges.

Defense Team Chosen For Second Suspect Charged In Bobo Case
May 2, 2014

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The second suspect charged in connection with the kidnapping and murder of Holly Bobo has chosen his legal team.

Attorney Fletcher Long said Friday that he, along with his Clarksville-based law partner John Herbison, will join Mike Flanagan in defending Jason Wayne Autry in the Holly Bobo trial.

“It’s our case, we are thrilled to have it, and we are going to give this man every penny of the defense for which he has paid,” he said.

Autry, age 39, appeared in a Decatur County courtroom Friday, where he pleaded not guilty to charges of aggravated kidnapping and first degree murder. During his appearance, he repeatedly stated he had been wrongly accused in the case.

Long said when he spoke to his client, he again expressed the same feelings.

“The more I'm exposed to him, the more impressed I am as to how very innocent he is and how he has been caught up with something that has nothing to do with him,” he said.

Long and Flanagan met with Autry Friday, at the Riverbend Maximum Security Prison, where he has been in custody since May of 2013 for an unrelated case.
 ::snipping3::
Autry has been scheduled to appear in court for a hearing on June 4.

Zach Adams' Mother Reveals Connection Among Holly Bobo Suspects
Updated: Friday, May 2 2014, 12:13 AM CDT

 ::snipping3::
With Autry's name still just a rumor in March, Cindy Adams, Zachary's mother told Fox 17 news that  Autry sometimes  stayed at her son's house.

Cindy Adams, in March 2014 said, "He was a friend and he was in and out of Zachary's house a lot. From what I asked people, he supposedly was living there when Holly disappeared."
 ::snipping3::
Cindy Adams, in March 2014 said, "Shayne Austin is a childhood friend of Zachary. He's been friends with both Zachary and Dylan since they were kids, went to church together, hung out together."

The TBI is not  saying how  Austin is connected with  the case, but confirms Autry and Adams were the last to be seen with Holly Bobo alive , according to sworn witness statements.

The headline reads "Suspect in Holly Bobo murder had DUI".  After reading the article, it looks like he had three DUI's and got in trouble for open carry of a shot gun and has a string of ten misdemeanors.  There's a video of raw footage of his 2009 DUI stop in the article.  He looks pretty wasted.   ::MonkeyNoNo::

Suspect in Holly Bobo murder had DUI
May 3, 2014

 ::snipping3::

Shayne Austin, 29, identified as suspect by a prosecutor in an email, may be indicted alongside Jason Wayne Autry and Zachary Adams, who have both been charged with first-degree murder and especially aggravated kidnapping in the Bobo case.

Bobo, a nursing student, disappeared after she was seen being led away from her West Tennessee home by a man in Darden in April 2011.

Austin previously had been granted immunity in exchange for his cooperation in the investigation, but investigators told The Jackson Sun Austin was not completely truthful and forthcoming.

He was arrested twice in three months in Rutherford County, according to records from the Murfreesboro Police Department.

On Nov. 20, 2009, Austin was pulled over on Middle Tennessee Boulevard in front of the Murphy Center at Middle Tennessee State University, according to an arrest report. On video footage taken from a dashboard camera mounted in the patrol car, Austin can be seen stumbling and nearly toppling multiple times during a field sobriety test.

Austin was charged with the third DUI on his record and with violating state implied-consent laws, as he refused to submit to a blood test when he was booked, according to the arrest report.

On Jan. 4, 2010, a police officer saw Austin walking across a gas station parking lot wielding a shotgun, according to another arrest report.


The gas station, which was a Mapco at the time, was on Middle Tennessee Boulevard just down the road from where he was previously arrested. When the officer approached Austin, according to the report, Austin placed the Remington 870 12 gauge shotgun on the ground.

Austin was arrested for possessing a weapon with intent to go armed, according to the arrest report.

State law says that "it is an offense for any person to possess or carry, whether openly or concealed, with the intent to go armed, any (prohibited) weapon" in public. Exceptions are made for people who carry a handgun with the appropriate permit.

Austin's criminal record in Decatur County includes 10 charges against him, all misdemeanors, according to The Jackson Sun.

Holly Bobo Murder Suspect Jason Autry Speaks Out About Case
Posted: May 15, 2014 3:30 PM CDT
Updated: May 19, 2014 6:45 PM CDT

 ::snipping3::
"I'm a drug addict and a thief, but I'm not a killer," said Autry, who insisted he has charged with a crime he did not commit.

He said he has no idea what happened to Bobo.

"I don't want to speculate and make a rumor of what happened to the girl," Autry said.
 ::snipping3::
Autry said Dylan, who is in jail on gun charges, lied to investigators.

"He's been lying his way all this time. You know he got himself in a little trouble and he's down there in Obion County and he don't want to do his time and he's making stuff up to get out of it," Autry stated.

Autry said Dylan can't stand his brother.

"They hate each other's guts and that's a way to get back at him," added Autry, who said he and Zach are friends.

"Me and Zach go back several years you know. On and off," said Autry. "He'd come around. Me and him smoked, drank a little bit, did some dope and hung out together. Zach didn't have a whole lot of friends."

Autrey conceded he and Zach had several run-ins with the law over the years. And, Autry said while he was serving time on one arrest in 2012 TBI agents paid him the first of many visits to press him on the Bobo case.

"It was a try to be a forced move to get me to be a false witness against Zach Adams," said Autry.

But Autry said he told the TBI he knew nothing -- no link between Adams and Bobo. If he did, Autry insisted he would have taken the TBI up on their offer of reduced jail time and the reward money.

"I would have taken five years and $280,000 for my freedom. If I knew, I would tell them,"  Autry concluded.

"I don't think they have any idea who committed a crime or that a crime was committed at all," said Autry's attorney Fletcher Long. 

Long wonders if the TBI has anything other than an informant's word as evidence against his client. No body has been recovered in the Bobo case.

"I think first you have to prove there is a killer and that she is dead," said Long.

Autry said whatever happened to Holly Bobo, he was not involved.

"I want to let them know they have an innocent man right here," said Autry.

The TBI declined to comment about what Autry has said about the investigation.

Tune in Tuesday night at 6 p.m. to see the second part of Nick's exclusive interview with Autry.

Shayne Austin, the man who was given an immunity deal (which was later reneged by the DA) has also given information.  What, if anything, did he have to say about Jason Autry? 

Dylan would not dredge up the wrath of three spiteful and violent men to acquire an early release IMO.  That would be a huge risk as there would be no guarantee they would be tried and convicted only to come after him after being released.

Investigators appear confident they have the perps which certainly gives the appearance they have evidence ample to convict.

Autry can sit in his cell and keep blowing smoke... and wishing he had come out sooner and set the others up for the fall so he could be free and walked away with the $280k reward fund.  I know he's thinking it, "Why didn't I set them up and take that dang money?".

Holly Bobo Murder Suspect Jason Autry Denies Charges, Claims He Has Alibi

 ::snipping3::
We asked him if he killed her.

"No sir. Right hand before God. The Father, Son and Holy Ghost. I didn't bother that girl in no form or no fashion and I don't know who did," said Autry from his cell at Riverbend Maximum Security Prison.

Autry said he never personally knew Bobo, though he did know of her.

"I didn't now nothing about her other than her dad and my dad and some of our kin knew each other. I went to school with her mother as my school teacher growing up," said Autry.

But, he said he doesn't even know the location of Bobo's home where she was abducted.

"I never went to the house. I never hung out with her on the town. I never, none of that," said Autry.

Autry said he does know his co-defendant Adams as a friend.

But he denied rumors that Autry, Adams and another friend, Shayne Austin, formed a gang known as the A-Train that terrorized the locals in Decatur County for years.

"Some people portray us as big dope dealers and gang members and that's not the case. This is a community that's real small. It was just a few dopeheaded boys just hanging out," said Autry. "Our relationship is what you might call drug-based. The only time we hung out was when we was getting high."

Autry denies that he was involved in some type of drug-induced, crazy plot to kidnap and kill Bobo.

"It never dawned on me that someday I was going to be falsely accused of this," said Autry.

"Jason Autry has been in trouble with the law before," said his attorney Fletcher Long.

But he said there is nothing to link Autry to Bobo's disappearance, much less murder. The TBI has looked, but has yet to find a body.

"You can prosecute without a body, but you better have some pretty convincing circumstantial evidence on death and I don't think they have that here," said Long.

Even if the TBI does have some physical evidence -- perhaps bone fragments or clothing -- it may not matter for Autry.

Long dropped this bombshell: "We may have a strong alibi defense."

Long has indicated that Autry will be able to prove he was far away -- in another county -- when the TBI issued the alert for Holly Bobo.

The TBI has declined to comment on what Autry has said about the investigation.

Attorneys For Bobo Murder Suspect Complain They Don't Get Private Access To Client

by NICK BERES

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Attorneys for Holly Bobo murder suspect Jason Autry are complaining to the judge in the case that they are not being given private access to their client at Riverbend Maximum Security Prison.

"I'm looking for justice for my client," said attorney Fletcher Long. "This is unacceptable." 

Long and John Herbison are filing a motion with the court stating: Prison officials have so far refused to permit in-person contact between defense counsel and the accused.

Long said during his visits to Riverbend he's been restricted to speaking to Autry through glass and with guards present. 

The Tennessee Department of Corrections issued the following statement Tuesday:

Mr. Autry is in segregation. Inmates in segregation are allowed confidential meetings with their attorneys. The presence of a glass barrier does not infringe upon attorney client privilege or confidentiality. Fletcher Long has not been denied or otherwise had access to his client limited. Mr. Long was granted a video conference with his client, but, unfortunately, Mr. Long chose to squander his time when he circumvented TDOC policy by allowing a member of the media to conduct an unapproved interview with an inmate. TDOC will continue to apply its policies in a consistent manner for all inmates and their attorneys.

Attorneys For Bobo Murder Suspect Complain They Don't Get Private Access To Client

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Attorneys for Holly Bobo murder suspect Jason Autry are complaining to the judge in the case that they are not being given private access to their client at Riverbend Maximum Security Prison.

"I'm looking for justice for my client," said attorney Fletcher Long. "This is unacceptable." 

Long and John Herbison are filing a motion with the court stating: Prison officials have so far refused to permit in-person contact between defense counsel and the accused.

Long said during his visits to Riverbend he's been restricted to speaking to Autry through glass and with guards present. 

The Tennessee Department of Corrections issued the following statement Tuesday:

Mr. Autry is in segregation. Inmates in segregation are allowed confidential meetings with their attorneys. The presence of a glass barrier does not infringe upon attorney client privilege or confidentiality. Fletcher Long has not been denied or otherwise had access to his client limited. Mr. Long was granted a video conference with his client, but, unfortunately, Mr. Long chose to squander his time when he circumvented TDOC policy by allowing a member of the media to conduct an unapproved interview with an inmate. TDOC will continue to apply its policies in a consistent manner for all inmates and their attorneys.

As the article indicate, this is a ridiculous argument as the difference between glass being between an attorny/client or open air is ZERO.  It also does not interfere with legal documents being passed on when appropriate.

Controversy Over Lawyer Access To Bobo Murder Suspect

Updated: May 22, 2014 6:04 PM CDT

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The war of words has escalated, and it could jeopardize the case against one of the Holly Bobo murder suspects.

The attorney for suspect Jason Autry said he may ask the judge to dismiss the indictment, claiming Riverbend Maximum Security Prison is hindering Autry's right to a legal defense.

Autry has been charged with the kidnapping and murder of Holly Bobo. He talked to NewsChannel 5 by closed circuit TV from Riverbend Maximum Security Prison. But Autry's attorney Fletcher Long wants better access.

"They're just messing with me and they can do it at their peril," said Long.

This past week, Long complained that Riverbend has not allowed him face-to-face, private meetings with Autry, who is in segregation.

"We are either interviewing him at his cell or through very thick glass through which I'm not able to hear," Long stated.
 ::snipping3::
"If I can't get access to my client I will ask the court to dismiss the indictment for him being denied effective assistance of counsel," Long concluded.

The state response also read: "Mr. Long was granted a video conference with his client, but, unfortunately, Mr. Long chose to squander his time when he circumvented TDOC policy by allowing a member of the media to conduct an unapproved interview with an inmate."

This referred to him allowing NewsChannel 5 to interview Autry.

"That's my call. That's not Riverbend's call," said Long, who granted the interview so Autry could have his say.

"I think it's fair that if the TBI can have a press conference to call him guilty, then it's fair for him to try the case with public just as they have done," said Long.

The issue will be addressed at Autry's arraignment next Wednesday.

No idea how the judge will see it, but imo the lawyer's not doing himself or his client any favors with this BS.

Is Autry's attorney Long  interested in representing his client and helping him have a fair trial and defend him, or is he trying to scratch up enough dust with the media to make a name for himself?  I cannot for the life of me think why an attorney would allow an interview like that.  It certainly wouldn't be in the defendant's best interest imo.  Maybe Long see's himself as a Tennessee version of Jose Baez?  Autry might want to see about getting a different attorney.  Another thought I have is, maybe the attorney doesn't see much of a defense for his client Autry and is trying to set it up so the case goes to mistrial for incompetent representation...  ::MonkeyNoNo::

Two Men To Appear In Court In Holly BoBo Case
Updated: Tue 6:23 AM, May 27, 2014

(WBKO)-- --Two men facing charges in the disappearance and murder of Holly Bobo have been scheduled to appear in court this week.

Shayne Austin will be in court at 10 Tuesday morning. Prosecutors originally gave Austin immunity in exchange for his cooperation in the investigation. The Assistant District Attorney General recently voided that agreement after the state said Austin was not completely truthful and forthcoming.

Wednesday, Jason Autry will also be in court..

Autry was charged along with Zachary Adams with first degree-murder and especially aggravated kidnapping charges.

Suit against Holly Bobo prosecutors transferred to circuit court
Posted: May 27, 2014 4:46 AM CDT
Updated: May 27, 2014 12:30 PM CDT

DECATURVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
A judge has ruled that a lawsuit filed by a suspect offered immunity for his testimony against suspects in the disappearance and murder of Holly Bobo will be heard in circuit court.

Decatur County Chancellor Carma D. McGee ruled Tuesday that Shayne Austin's lawsuit against prosecutors over their plans to revoke his immunity agreement should be heard in circuit court.

According to Austin's attorney, prosecutors are trying to indict Austin even though they say he's held up his end of the deal.

"Where is the case? There is no pending criminal case. There is not a criminal case against Shayne Kyle Austin," said Luke Evans during court.

The state was seeking to have the lawsuit dismissed.

News that the state was seeking to revoke the offer of immunity of Austin, 29, was learned on the same day that authorities announced the indictment of Jason Wayne Autry, 39, for kidnapping and the murder of Bobo.

Case over broken immunity deal could next proceed to Circuit Court; Holly Bobo's mom asks that her rights not be forgotten
May 27 2014

DECATURVILLE — A judge ruled today that Decatur County Chancery Court does not have jurisdiction over a lawsuit that claims state prosecutors violated an immunity agreement in the criminal case surrounding the kidnapping and killing of Holly Bobo.

Assistant District Attorney General Scott Sutherland and Luke Evans, the attorney for Shayne Austin, argued in Chancery Court today as to whether the court had the jurisdiction to rule on an immunity contract violation involving a criminal case.
obo was abducted from her home in Darden in April 2011. Her body has not been found, but in the past three months the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has charged two men with her murder and kidnapping. According to court records obtained by The Jackson Sun, prosecutors told Evans they planned to also indict Austin, who previously had been granted immunity in exchange for his cooperation in the Bobo investigation.

According to documents filed in Decatur County Chancery Court, Austin received immunity in the Bobo investigation in an agreement signed on March 6. The documents say Austin was given immunity from any criminal charges arising from the Bobo case. In the lawsuit, Evans was seeking a restraining order and temporary injunction to keep prosecutors from indicting Austin.

At one point during today’s hearing, Holly Bobo’s mother, Karen Bobo, approached the benches were the media were sitting.

“I want to remind people not to forget about Holly’s rights and justice for Holly and to ignore the sideshow the attorneys are having about (their clients’) rights,” she said.

During the hearing, Sutherland argued, “This court does have jurisdiction over a breach of contract, but not in a criminal case. The end result of those charges is for another day, another court.”

Evans, on the other hand, argued that the Chancery Court is the only place Austin had to file his grievance because Austin has not yet been criminally charged.

“The state bargained for a benefit. Mr. Shayne Austin bargained for a benefit,” Evans said. “Immunity agreements are great things. They help effectuate justice.”

I remember it. 

Don't have time to look now, but it seems like it may have been stated later that the video was not actually from that day?  I could be wrong, but it seems like I remember something about that.  It was after the Bobo family had that investigative group come in and they did those shows about the case, and then the TBI spoke out against them later iirc?

What the heck is going on with Autry? Where is his attorney and what is he doing?  Is he advising Autry?  Is Autry listening and taking his advice?  Where did this note come from? 

According to the tweets, Autry tried to pass a note to the media before it was confiscated. 

Why in the world is Autry making any comments to the media?  In Sarah's tweet above, she says she asked him where Holly was and he said "good question".  He should just be quiet.  Again, jmho.

Lawyer: Autry 'bewildered' by charges in Holly Bobo case
One suspect in Bobo case set to be in court today

May 28, 2014 4:24 AM

DECATURVILLE — An attorney who represents Jason Autry said Autry is “bewildered” as to how he came to be charged in the abduction and killing of Holly Bobo.

Autry, who is charged with first-degree murder and aggravated kidnapping, is scheduled to be in Decatur County Circuit Court at 1 p.m. today.

The hearing is expected to be an update for Autry to inform the court that he has obtained lawyers.

Autry was indicted on the charges on April 29. A second suspect, Zachary Adams, was indicted on the same charges on March 5.

Attorney John Herbison, of Clarksville, said he will represent Autry along with attorney Fletcher Long, also of Clarksville, and attorney Mike Flanagan, of Nashville.

Herbison told reporters Tuesday that he expected today’s hearing to be straightforward, with the main proceeding being that the attorneys will present themselves to Judge Charles Creed McGinley as Autry’s counsel of record.

He said that once the court recognizes the attorneys as Autry’s counsel, they will proceed to other matters involving Autry’s defense. Autry is currently serving a 100-month sentence after he was convicted in August 2012 of aggravated assault on an officer and was in possession of a firearm.

Prosecutors request gag order in Holly Bobo case
May 28, 2014 8:24 AM

 ::snipping3::
As part of a gag order motion filed in Decatur County Criminal Court, prosecutors are seeking to keep Jason Autry or anyone else involved in the case from speaking about the case to ensure the suspect receives a fair trail.

Autry was indicted by a grand jury in the alleged kidnapping and murder of Holly Bobo on April 29. He will be in court on Wednesday as part of a previously scheduled hearing.

If the gag order motion is allowed, all parties involved in the case would be held in contempt if they commented outside of court about the case or its documents or evidence.

The motion comes a week after an interview with the suspect aired on WTVF NewsChannel 5. In the interview, Autry discussed his relationship with other suspects in the case and with Bobo, who disappeared from her family’s Parsons home in April 2011.

Prosecutors allege that the news station violated Tennessee Department of Correction policy when it interviewed Autry through a video conferencing system that should have only been used for Davidson County attorneys to talk with their clients in prison.

Autrey’s attorney Fletcher Long requested use of the videoconferencing system and then told a Department of Correction worker that he needed a “ ‘private’ cameraman to record sessions with his client.”

“When Fletcher Long showed up for the meeting, he used deception to allow Channel 5 News, both a reporter and cameraman, to enter the video room for the purposes of an interview,” the filing said.


Prosecutors allege WTVF violated TDOC policy by securing the interview in that way. Corrections officials later told the news station about this and asked them not to air the interview, the filing said.

JASON AUTRY

Holly Bobo Murder Suspect Jason Autry In Decatur County Court Tuesday
Posted: May 28, 2014 5:49 AM PDT


DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. – One of the two men charged in the murder and kidnapping of Holly Bobo has been scheduled to be in court Wednesday afternoon.

Jason Autry’s attorneys have filed several motions in connection with the case, including one that claims Riverbend Maximum Security Prison is hindering Autry's right to a legal defense. Fletcher Long complained that Riverbend has not allowed him face-to-face, private meetings with Autry, who is in segregation.

Another issue that could be addressed is a gag order that prosecutors are seeking in the case. Prosecutors filed the motion Tuesday in response to a NewsChannel 5 exclusive interview with Autry.

The state objected to the broad content of that interview and claimed the comments made by Autry and his attorney, Fletcher Long, could intentionally or unintentionally pose a substantial likelihood of prejudicing a fair trial because of the publicity.

Attorney General Beth Boswell claimed Long inappropriately allowed NewChannel 5 to interview his client while he was being held in segregation at Riverbend Maximum Security Prison.

Inmates in segregation are not allowed to do interviews in the prison. Our interview was conducted by way of video conferencing.

The NewsChannel 5 crew was not at the prison.

Fletcher Long said he did nothing wrong. He said it's his decision how best to defend his client, and if an interview with him in the prison was prohibited he sought other options – either by telephone or, in this case, by video conferencing.

The court hearing is set to start at 1 p.m. Wednesday in Decatur County.

Autry and Zachary Adams have been charged with aggravated kidnapping and murder in connection with Holly Bobo’s death. Autry said in his exclusive interview that he was innocent and had no involvement in Bobo’s kidnapping or death.

Judge Denies Gag Order In Case Against Holly Bobo Murder Suspect
May 28, 2014

On Tuesday, another hearing was held in chancery court to discuss a dispute over an immunity agreement for Shayne Austin, another man said to be involved in the case.

Decatur County Chancery Court Judge Carma D. McGee decided Tuesday that only a criminal court can decide whether prosecutors can revoke an immunity agreement reached with Austin.

A March 6 agreement granted Austin immunity from various charges, including "all charges arising out of the disposal, destruction, burial, and/or concealment of Holly Bobo's deceased body."

Prosecutors later revoked the agreement, saying Austin wasn't truthful with them. Austin's lawyer then sued in chancery court for breach of contract.

JASON AUTRY

Judge Declines To Issue Gag Order In Holly Bobo Case
Posted: May 28, 2014 5:49 AM PDT
Updated: May 28, 2014 12:05 PM PDT


DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. – A Decatur County judge has declined to issue a gag order in the case against one of the two men charged in the murder and kidnapping of Holly Bobo.

Circuit Court Judge Charles Creed McGinley said Wednesday he would not be issuing the order "at this time" in the case of 39-year-old Jason Autry.

A gag order would bar those involved in the case from speaking publicly about it. McGinley said he has not granted a gag order in 26 years as a judge. However, the judge also advised the defendant to "exercise his right to remain silent."

The request was filed by prosecutors after Autry gave an exclusive interview to NewsChannel 5 from jail. McGinley advised everyone involved in the case to "try the case in the court and not in the media."

The state objected to the broad content of our interview and claimed the comments made by Autry and his attorney, Fletcher Long, could intentionally or unintentionally pose a substantial likelihood of prejudicing a fair trial because of the publicity.

Holly Bobo Murder Suspect Jason Autry Speaks Out About Case
Posted: May 15, 2014 1:30 PM PDT
Updated: May 19, 2014 4:45 PM PDT


<snipped>

Investigators said a key witness -- thought to be Zach Adams' younger brother Dylan -- reported seeing Bobo alive in Zach's home after she disappeared and that she was there with Zach and Autry.

Autry said Dylan, who is in jail on gun charges, lied to investigators.

"He's been lying his way all this time. You know he got himself in a little trouble and he's down there in Obion County and he don't want to do his time and he's making stuff up to get out of it," Autry stated.

Autry said Dylan can't stand his brother.

"They hate each other's guts and that's a way to get back at him," added Autry, who said he and Zach are friends.

"Me and Zach go back several years you know. On and off," said Autry. "He'd come around. Me and him smoked, drank a little bit, did some dope and hung out together. Zach didn't have a whole lot of friends."

Autrey conceded he and Zach had several run-ins with the law over the years. And, Autry said while he was serving time on one arrest in 2012 TBI agents paid him the first of many visits to press him on the Bobo case.

"It was a try to be a forced move to get me to be a false witness against Zach Adams," said Autry.

But Autry said he told the TBI he knew nothing -- no link between Adams and Bobo. If he did, Autry insisted he would have taken the TBI up on their offer of reduced jail time and the reward money.

"I would have taken five years and $280,000 for my freedom. If I knew, I would tell them,"  Autry concluded.

"I don't think they have any idea who committed a crime or that a crime was committed at all," said Autry's attorney Fletcher Long. 

Long wonders if the TBI has anything other than an informant's word as evidence against his client. No body has been recovered in the Bobo case.

"I think first you have to prove there is a killer and that she is dead," said Long

Holly Bobo Murder Suspect Jason Autry Denies Charges, Claims He Has Alibi
Posted: May 15, 2014 1:47 PM PDT
Updated: May 20, 2014 4:23 PM PDT


<snipped>

"Jason Autry has been in trouble with the law before," said his attorney Fletcher Long.

But he said there is nothing to link Autry to Bobo's disappearance, much less murder. The TBI has looked, but has yet to find a body.

"You can prosecute without a body, but you better have some pretty convincing circumstantial evidence on death and I don't think they have that here," said Long.

Even if the TBI does have some physical evidence -- perhaps bone fragments or clothing -- it may not matter for Autry.

 Long dropped this bombshell: "We may have a strong alibi defense."

Long has indicated that Autry will be able to prove he was far away -- in another county -- when the TBI issued the alert for Holly Bobo.

The TBI has declined to comment on what Autry has said about the investigation.

Judge denies request for gag order in Holly Bobo case, sets scheduling order for Jason Autry's trial
May 28, 2014

DECATURVILLE — Judge Charles Creed McGinley ruled today that there will be no gag order in the cases involving two men charged with the first-degree murder and aggravated kidnapping of Decatur County woman Holly Bobo.

State prosecutors made a motion requesting the gag order on Tuesday.

McGinley announced his decision today during a status update hearing for defendant Jason Autry, who faces the murder and kidnapping charges along with Holladay resident Zachary Rye Adams.

McGinley acknowledged the state’s motion for a gag order and said that he will not grant one at this time.

Assistant District Attorney General Beth Hall argued that Jason Autry’s interview with a Nashville television station and his effort to pass a note to news reporters standing outside the courtroom before today’s hearing were examples of how Autry’s efforts to contact the media could unfairly influence the outcome of a trial.

McGinley said that it would be a rare decision for him to issue such a gag order.

The motion filed by prosecutors Tuesday requested the court to order “all trial participants, including lawyers, parties, and witnesses, to refrain from commenting about this trial as those comments, whether intentionally or unintentionally, pose a substantial likelihood of prejudicing a fair trial because of the publicity of the proceedings.”

McGinley said that he would not grant the gag order, but that it “behooves everyone involved to try the case in court and not in the media.”

During Autry’s last court appearance, McGinley asked whether Autry had obtained an attorney. Autry said he might need two months.

McGinley said that shortly afterward a motion was filed notifying the court that Autry had obtained John Herbison, of Clarksville, Fletcher Long, of Clarksville, and Mike Flanagan, of Nashville, as his counsel.

McGinley repeated again in court today that he intended to keep the proceedings involving Autry and Adams moving as quickly as possible while maintaining fairness to both sides.

A request by Autry’s attorneys asking if they could have face-to-face meetings with their client, who is in segregation at Riverbend Maximum Security Institution in Nashville, was also denied despite the lawyers stating they could only speak to the 39-year-old through his cell door, making it difficult to communicate in a confidential manner.

“We meet with him through a thick glass which I have a difficulty hearing and I am not hard of hearing,” Defense Attorney Fletcher Long said.

Judge McGinley told the prosecution to work with TDOC to see if there could be ways of improving that communication without allowing Autry face to face meetings.

Janet, let's be clear & not get it twisted... Autry has NOT been denied contact with his attorney whatsoever, rather there has been legal use of restriction as to how they communicate which is done in many instances, in many states.  Interestingly, while they complain that they cannot communicate without a glass partition between, they still managed to arrange for Autry to do an extremely ill-advised media interview while in jail facing felony charges.  As evidenced, Autry & his attorney are trying to create a circus to divert attention from his involvement (be it complicity/conspiring after the fact or an actual participating act) in the abduction/murder of Holly.  This is a completely transparent attempt to point a finger at law enforcement and/or prosecution in the hope it will work in the defendant's favor...meanwhile, the more they act like fools, the more guilty Autry looks.  Autry trying to pass a note to the media before his court appearance, only proves this point & also exhibits the total lack of respect they have for the justice system & the victim in this case.   This attorney representing Autry is an embarrassment to the profession & is bordering, if not already committed misconduct.  Also, in regards to the immunity revocation, the State contends they do indeed have legitimate cause that would allow his immunity agreement to be revoked which will be determined by a circuit court.  It is rather obvious that the State would not seek to revoke his immunity without cause.

I don't know enough to have an opinion of whether he's guilty or not, but I'm not really feeling any sympathy for Autry here.  If I understand correctly he was already serving time in this prison before the charges against him in Holly's case.  Wondering if his attorney/client privileges in the prison were any different with his prior case/attorney?  Has he always been in segregation, or did his status change in any way with the charges in Holly's case?

This isn't his first time around the block.  He knows the rules.

And whining to the judge about his handcuffs...when he was there being charged with murder; just wasn't impressive.

Quote
Autry's appearance was brief, though he had time to complain several times of his handcuffs being too tight, saying he hasn’t had feeling in his hands “since leaving Nashville.”

He told the judge he needed time to figure out if he could afford to hire an attorney.

“This is a serious as it gets,” Judge McGinley told him. “I strongly urge you to secure the counsel of your choice rather than a counsel of my choice.”

Autry is being held at Riverbend Maximum Security Institution in Nashville on an unrelated aggravated assault conviction.

As deputies led him away, he waived to his mother in the courtroom and once again professed his innocence.

“I need help,” he said. “I'm innocent.”

In 2008, Autry, who was in prison, charged with theft, escaped jail but was eventually recaptured. News Channel 5 reported at the time that Autry had a tattoo of the grim reaper on his arm. His charges then were for burglary and theft over $1,000 and less than $10,000.

Controversy Over Lawyer Access To Bobo Murder Suspect
Posted: May 22, 2014 12:37 PM CST Updated: May 22, 2014 6:04 PM CST

 ::snipping3::

This past week, Long complained that Riverbend has not allowed him face-to-face, private meetings with Autry, who is in segregation.

"We are either interviewing him at his cell or through very thick glass through which I'm not able to hear," Long stated.

The Tennessee Department of Corrections issued a response last week which reads in part: "The presence of a glass barrier does not infringe upon attorney client privilege... Fletcher Long has not been denied or otherwise had access to his client limited. TDOC will continue to apply it's policies..."

"Well, I think that's disingenuous," said Long, who added that Riverbend does not provide private meetings away from guards and other inmates.

"If I can't get access to my client I will ask the court to dismiss the indictment for him being denied effective assistance of counsel," Long concluded.

 The state response also read: "Mr. Long was granted a video conference with his client, but, unfortunately, Mr. Long chose to squander his time when he circumvented TDOC policy by allowing a member of the media to conduct an unapproved interview with an inmate."

This referred to him allowing NewsChannel 5 to interview Autry.

"That's my call. That's not Riverbend's call," said Long, who granted the interview so Autry could have his say.

"I think it's fair that if the TBI can have a press conference to call him guilty, then it's fair for him to try the case with public just as they have done," said Long

Judge denies request for gag order in Holly Bobo case, sets scheduling order for Jason Autry's trial
May 28, 2014 3:33 PM

 ::snipping3::
“I am fully cognizant that there is voluminous discovery that is out of the ordinary for a criminal case,” he said. “So I have made a scheduling order that is a bit more liberal than I would normally use.”

McGinley said he wanted the prosecution to furnish both defendants in the case with discovery — the prosecution’s evidence against them — in 90 days. After which, he said, the defense would have 60 days to make pretrial motions, to which the state would then have 30 more days to respond.

He said there would then be 30 days for judicial review.

If a plea agreement is not reached by Jan. 14, then a trial date will be set.

McGinley said that he encourages a rush put on all forensic evidence that is outstanding. He said he has seen previous cases hampered when forensic evidence was not received in an expedient fashion.

McGinley said he expects to issue an identical scheduling order for Adams during Adams’ status update hearing on June 4, although the defendants will currently be tried separately.

The judge said he would have to issue a decision if a request were made to join the two trials together.

McGinley said that after a three-year investigation it appears the prosecution has “mountains of materials.”

The prosecution said the defense is providing the state with several external hard drives on which to place much of the discovery materials that have been recorded in a digital format.

Autry’s defense also requested a bill of particulars that would state the charges against Autry more specifically than what criminal offenses were outlined in the indictment. The judge said this would be granted as well.

Autry’s defense attorneys also requested that the judge grant them “unfettered” access to Autry, as most recently the attorneys have only been able to talk to Autry through a glass window. Autry is currently serving a prison sentence on unrelated charges.

Hall argued that the means by which the attorneys have been able to access Autry are in accordance with state corrections department standards. McGinley said that he has a problem with the word “unfettered” and urged the attorneys to come to an agreement on a means for Autry’s defense to communicate with him that would comply with state regulations and work.

Toward the end of the hearing, Flanagan requested that at some point in the near future the prosecution give some notice of what punishment they would request for Autry. Hall said the state had talked with an attorney, and mentioned the death penalty.

When this was mentioned, Autry pursed his lips, turned his head, looked back at his mother Shirley King and winked.

DECATURVILLE, Tenn -- Jason Autry, one of the men linked to kidnapping and killing Holly Bobo, appeared before a judge for a status hearing, Wednesday.

On his way into the courtroom, Autry tossed a small white piece of paper to the ground, saying he has a message for the media. The police quickly confiscated it.

Once Autry arrived in the courtroom, Judge Creed McGinley advised Autry not to pull an act like that again.

"I suggest to defendant that he has afforded many constitutional rights, one of which is a right to remain silent," Judge McGinley said.

"Perhaps if we could meet with him face to face and he could pass us papers personally he wouldn't be dropping them on the ground outside court appearances," Fletcher Long, Autry's attorney, said.

Long asked Judge McGinley for a chance to meet with his client face to face, which was denied.

The judge discussed future hearings before his trial begins in December. He also told the courtroom he knows of "mountains of materials" obtained from Autry in the state lab being DNA tested.

Attorneys For Bobo Murder Suspect Complain They Don't Get Private Access To Client
Posted: May 20, 2014 3:48 PM CDT
Updated: May 20, 2014 5:49 PM CDT
by NICK BERES

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Attorneys for Holly Bobo murder suspect Jason Autry are complaining to the judge in the case that they are not being given private access to their client at Riverbend Maximum Security Prison.

"I'm looking for justice for my client," said attorney Fletcher Long. "This is unacceptable." 

Long and John Herbison are filing a motion with the court stating: Prison officials have so far refused to permit in-person contact between defense counsel and the accused.

Long said during his visits to Riverbend he's been restricted to speaking to Autry through glass and with guards present. 

The Tennessee Department of Corrections issued the following statement Tuesday:

Mr. Autry is in segregation. Inmates in segregation are allowed confidential meetings with their attorneys. The presence of a glass barrier does not infringe upon attorney client privilege or confidentiality.
Fletcher Long has not been denied or otherwise had access to his client limited. Mr. Long was granted a video conference with his client, but, unfortunately, Mr. Long chose to squander his time when he circumvented TDOC policy by allowing a member of the media to conduct an unapproved interview with an inmate. TDOC will continue to apply its policies in a consistent manner for all inmates and their attorneys.


 ::snipping3::


Thanks Grace.

I am troubled by this TDOC policy regarding ANY segregated prisoner and his/her defence attorney not being afforded the right to a "face to face" to assure confidentiality.  However ... Tennessee law upholds this policy or there would have been a different ruling yesterday in regards to the challenge by the attorney of Jason Autry.

Protecting the Attorney-Client Privilege for Detained or Incarcerated Clients
By Wade Davies
Mon, 10/31/2011


<snipped>

Local Jails

If a client is housed in a local jail, it is best not to discuss anything of substance when the client calls. Instead, make plans to update them in person.

If a personal visit is not possible, other means to preserve the privilege in a phone call may exist, but they are not foolproof. For example, some larger jurisdictions have the capacity to block recording of attorneys’ phone numbers. In order to achieve a privileged call, check with the chief jailer and confirm in writing that calls to your phone number are privileged. Even then, it is not the best option. Some “solutions” are that the calls are still recorded, but segregated and supposedly not reviewed. So if you can visit, you should.

Many Nashville attorneys were recently surprised to learn that the recordings of calls between their firms and their clients had been turned over in discovery in a federal prosecution.[4] This happened despite a written policy against listening to privileged communications.[5]

Many times, it is very difficult to tell whether a call is privileged. It has often been held that the client knows a call is not privileged because there is a recording at the beginning of the call saying it is subject to monitoring. The problem for lawyers is that we do not hear that portion of the call. For years, many of us have assumed that calls to lawyers are privileged and not monitored. Unfortunately, that is not necessarily the case.

What is there to be "troubled" about?  Autry is already serving time in prison for crimes he's been convicted of.  Autry is also illustrating that he acts out & is unwilling to respect rules time after time.  There are reasons prisoners are segregated, not the least of which is mainly for safety precautions.  There is no doubt in my mind that given an opportunity Autry or someone like him would strike out or attempt to break out judging by his behavior in his recent court appearances & criminal history.   You are talking about convicted felons, not upstanding citizens here, so quite frankly this woman has no sympathy whatsoever for them....I doubt highly too many disagree with my sentiments either.

'Our voice is for Holly': Holly Bobo's mother calls for a focus on justice for her daughter
May 29, 2014 4:39 AM

DECATURVILLE — Holly Bobo’s mother implored people Wednesday not to be sidetracked by the “lawyers’ circus sideshow” and to keep the focus on justice for her daughter.

Karen Bobo also vowed that her family would be present at all the hearings related to her daughter’s case.

“Our presence is for Holly, our voice is for Holly, and my daughter deserves that, and we’ll be here all the way,” she said.

 ::snipping3::

Karen Bobo said she believes the defendants’ lawyers plan to “get the focus off of justice for Holly and on this circus and sideshow.”

“That’s not what it’s about,” she said. “Justice for Holly is justice for all missing children, people, anyone who has been abducted or anyone who has been a victim.”

 ::snipping3::

Karen Bobo said she is frustrated that people are losing focus on her daughter.

“I’m doing this today asking you, please don’t forget what this is all about,” she said. “That is justice for Holly. She is the victim.”

Karen Bobo said she was pleased the judge said he plans to ensure that court proceedings move swiftly.

“I was glad to hear that because we’ve been living a nightmare for over three years, and that still continues every day,” she said. “The sooner the better.”

Karen Bobo said she is appalled by Autry’s efforts to speak to the media and to pass a note to a television reporter before his hearing Wednesday.

She described what it is like for her to see Adams and Autry come into the courtroom in shackles, with thoughts of what the men have been accused of doing to her daughter.

“Honestly, it’s very hard, but seeing them in shackles, I guess, makes me feel a little bit better,” she said.

Holly Bobo and Blake Barnett

DECATURVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
The former boyfriend of the missing Holly Bobo has been arrested in Decatur County.

Authorities said Blake Barnett was arrested early Thursday morning on charges of domestic assault and kidnapping.

Details about the charges are not available.

A spokesman for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said Barnett's arrest was not related to Bobo's disappearance in April 2011.

A Bobo family friend told Channel 4 News that Bobo and Barnett broke up before the nursing student disappeared and the split was not amicable.

By WMCTV.com Staff - email

DECATUR COUNTY, TN -
(WMC) - The ex-boyfriend of a missing Tenn. nursing student, who has been at the center of a murder investigation, has been arrested.

The Decatur County Sheriff's Department booked Blake Aaron Barnett into jail on one count of domestic related assault and one count of kidnapping.

Bobo disappeared from her Darden home in 2011. Zachary Adams and Jason Autry are charged with especially aggravated kidnapping and first-degree felony murder in her disappearance.

Sources tell WMC Action News 5 Barnett is Bobo's ex-boyfriend.

According to the TBI, Barnett's arrest has nothing to do with the Holly Bobo case. The TBI says Barnett's arrest is not their investigation.

If memory serves, this is the guy Holly had a restraining order on because he threatened her & after her abduction he was not seen in town, talk being that he moved

Jason Autry's defense lawyers in Holly Bobo case say they are hamstrung by prison rules
May 28, 2014

 ::snipping3::

Long talked about accusations by the prosecution that defense lawyers were deceptive in setting up a interview between Autry and News Channel 5 of Nashville.

According to a motion for a gag order filed by the prosecution, Long used an iPad in the Riverbend Maximum Security Institution to set up a video interview with the television station.

“(The Defendant’s attorneys) requested to enter the facility with an iPad to take notes during an interview,” the motion said. “As the Court is aware, an iPad can be used as a medium to connect an inmate with unauthorized persons other than legal counsel. The attorneys were instructed that electronics are not allowed to be brought into TDOC facilities.”

Long said he and other members of Autry’s defense team acted reasonably and within their rights as his attorneys.

“I feel like that if I want to have my client on camera to gauge how he answers questions, what affect he adopts when answering questions, to kind of simulate the pressure that is gleaned from being interviewed by (the media), I think … that that’s our call,” he said.

Zachary Adams' attorney asks for jail visitation, phone privileges for suspect in Holly Bobo case
June 4, 2014

DECATURVILLE — The attorney for Zachary Adams, one of the men accused of kidnapping and killing Holly Bobo, has filed a motion in Circuit Court for the judge to consider granting Adams “standard access to jail visitation” including jail telephone privileges, and access to pencil, paper, postage and “basic mail services.”

Adams is currently in custody at the Chester County Jail.

He’s due back in Decatur County Court today at 1 p.m. for a status hearing in the case.

The motion, which was filed today, said Adams has only limited access to the front desk telephone to talk to his attorney. Adams has only been able to visit with family at the request of his attorney, Jennifer Lynn Thompson.

Chester County Sheriff Blair Weaver said, according to the motion, that Adams has been held under the rules of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, which has been investigating Bobo’s disappearance since she went missing in April 2011.

A motion has also been filed by Thompson requesting the state to provide her and Adams with any discovery of evidence that the state intends to use during his criminal trial.

Thompson has also filed an order asking that the court “partially unseal all sealed materials in the court file, including search warrants, affidavits in support of search warrants, and filed copies of executed search warrants so as to allow Ms. Thompson to review and copy the items.”

According to the order, the court found that Thompson does need access to those items.

All the items requested by Thompson were unsealed for only her viewing.

Still mulling this over. The judge said  Zach Adams & Jason Autry are "technically not co defendents".  "Technically?"  Sort of but not?  In what sense yes, and what sense no?

Holly Bobo murder suspect, Zach Adams, appears in court
Jun 04, 2014 11:48 AM PDT


DECATUR COUNTY, TN - (WMC) - Zachary Adams, one of the men charged in Holly Bobo's disappearance and murder, appeared in front of a judge Wednesday afternoon in Decatur County.

At a previous hearing, Decatur County Judge Charles Creed McGinley said he will not take up anything that has to do with Adams' case without him being present in court.

At the last hearing,  Jennifer Lynn Thompson, Adam's defense attorney, asked for her client to have paper and pencil in jail and even asked that Adams be transferred to a facility that allows such resources, so that he can write down his thoughts as she prepares his defense. That request was not taken up during Wednesday's hearing.

The hearing served as a type of status hearing to see where the prosecution and defense are at when it comes to sharing evidence collected during the investigation with one another.

"I've been fairly liberal in this order because I'm aware that there's a lot of discovery to take place. This is a case of unusual complexity because of the length of time that the investigation has gone on," said Judge McGinley.

Like at the last hearing, the judge emphasized that he wants to keep this case moving forward. He also added that he does not want to see Adams be treated any differently than other inmates at Chester County Jail.

"What I don't want, is simply because of the nature of this charge [coercion of a witness] for him to be treated differently than any other person at that holding facility [Chester County Jail]," added McGinley.
Zachary Adams and Jason Autry, who are longtime friends, are both charged with especially aggravated kidnapping and first-degree felony murder. Adams faces an additional charge of coercion of a witness. He pleaded not guilty to the charges against him.

According to attorney John Herbison, of Clarksville, he will represent Autry along with attorney Fletcher Long, also of Clarksville, and attorney Mike Flannigan, of Nashville.

Herbison told reporters in court Tuesday that he expected the hearing to be straightforward, with the main proceeding being that the attorneys will present themselves to Judge Charles Creed McGinley as Autry's counsel of record.

He said that once the court recognizes the attorneys as Autry's counsel, they will proceed to other matters involving Autry's defense.

"We have not been permitted personal visitation," Herbison said. "We have been able to talk with (Austry) through a glass window with a guard present."

Herbison said that as of now, Autry and Zach Adams have been charged separately, and Autry's defense team hopes to keep it this way.

"Consolidation would require a motion that the affected defendants would have an opportunity to respond to," he said. "We would resist consolidation."

Although, he said, this does not mean that useful information would not be shared between the defense attorneys representing Adams and Autry.

Herbison said Autry is "bewildered" as to how he came to be charged. Herbison said he and Autry's other defense attorneys plan to seek the prosecution's discovery materials against Autry as soon as possible.

Alleged Holly Bobo killer Zach Adams appears in court briefly

During the appearance, the judge explained if Zachary Adams, 29, is offered a plea deal he must accept it before December, or go to trial or plead guilty to all charges. 

Adams also had his attorney file a motion that will allow him standard jail visitation, access to pencil and paper, postage and telephone privileges.

Adams' attorney Jennifer Thompson argued during his last court appearance that she was having difficulty building his defense case because Adams is in segregation without access to pencil, paper or consistent phone access.

The judge told state prosecutors Adams should be treated like any other defendant in the Chester County jail.

Also, Thompson has asked the state to turn over all the evidence they have against Adams.

The discovery motion is part of the typical process of defending a client.

The state has fought a portion of a motion asking them to unseal parts of the investigation because the prosecutors said the investigation is ongoing.

Judge Creed McGinley entered a scheduling order, which will lays out dates and deadlines for the case against Adams to proceed. It will be the same scheduling order he entered in the case against Adams' co-defendant, Jason Autry.

Both men are charged with first degree murder and especially aggravated kidnapping in Bobo's April 2011 disappearance.

Still mulling this over. The judge said  Zach Adams & Jason Autry are "technically not co defendents".  "Technically?"  Sort of but not?  In what sense yes, and what sense no?


http://www.nolo.com/dictionary/codefendant-term.html

One of two or more defendants charged with the same crime or sued in the same claim. Also called joint defendant.



maybe its that they will not be tried together (i.e. Menendez bros)

Also, the defense request for privileges is no different than Autry...the judge made it clear that the jail rules apply as to what they can and cannot do under the terms of their imprisonment

I noticed a page or two back that the defense in their motion wants the mental health records of witnesses...seems to me they should be more concerned with the fact they are defending scum.    Nothing for nothing, if a defendant's medical records are sealed than it should be no different for a witness.   I mention this because if I read that right, then we can see where this defense is going (deflection & attacking witnesses)

I was busy today so I didnt see the hearing but I will be watching the playback

Judge: Zach Adams should not be treated differently in jail

DECATURVILLE, Tenn. -- Zach Adams, one of the men accused of kidnapping and killing nursing student Holly Bobo, appeared in court on Wednesday afternoon.

Judge Creed McGinley said during the status hearing he did not want Adams, 28, to be treated any differently in the Chester County Jail than other inmates.

This comes after Adams' attorney asks that Adams be taken out of solitary confinement.

Chester County Sheriff Blair Weaver, who is in charge of Adams' housing at the jail, says Adams will stay in solitary confinement unless ordered otherwise.

Judge: Zachary Adams to be treated same as other inmates; Prosecutors to begin turning over evidence to defense
June 5, 2014

DECATURVILLE — Judge Charles Creed McGinley said Wednesday that he expects Zachary Adams to be treated like any other inmate in the Chester County Jail.
 ::snipping3::
Adams, who was not wearing a bullet-proof vest as he had for other hearings, was in Decatur County Circuit Court for a status hearing Wednesday.

The judge also heard motions filed by Adams’ attorney, Jennifer Lynn Thompson, who asked for the judge to consider granting Adams “standard access to jail visitation” including jail telephone privileges, and access to a pencil, paper, postage and “basic mail services.”

The motion said Adams has had only limited access to the front desk telephone to talk to his attorney. Adams, who is being held without bond, also has only been able to visit with family at the request of his attorney, Thompson said in her motion.

Chester County Sheriff Blair Weaver said, according to the motion, that Adams has been held under the rules of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, which has been investigating Bobo’s disappearance since she was abducted in April 2011.

“I don’t want him treated any differently,” McGinley said during Wednesday’s hearing.

Prosecutors argued that Adams should not have the requested privileges in part because he has been charged with trying to coerce a witness in the case. Prosecutors allege Adams communicated a message to his brother to keep quiet about the Bobo case or “he will be in the hole beside her.”

Josh DeVine, spokesman for the TBI, said, “The District Attorney’s office requested, through TBI, that the sheriff not allow phone or mail privileges (for Adams).”

McGinley clarified after the hearing that he didn’t rule one way or another, just that Adams should be treated the same as the other inmates in regard to phone, visitation and other privileges.

“I don’t know what the rules are” at the Chester County Jail, McGinley said. “He just needs to be treated like any other inmate.”

Weaver could not be reached for comment Wednesday.

Adams has been placed in solitary confinement since his arrest. Weaver previously said this was to ensure Adams’ own safety.

The judge also ruled that Adams’ attorney will no longer be required to be present when his family visits him at the jail.

Thompson explained after court that being present for every visit is not only a burden for her, but if any comments were made that could incriminate Adams, she would then have to be a witness and couldn’t be his attorney, too.

Thompson also filed motions asking McGinley to make prosecutors give her any favorable evidence that pertains to her client’s guilt or innocence, including witness statements and search warrants. Thompson also wants the state to tell her what punishment may be imposed if Adams is found guilty at trial. Prosecutors have not ruled out the death penalty.

Prosecutor Beth Boswell said she is working to assemble the evidence, and she will disclose all that she must under the law.

Schedule
McGinley set a case schedule for Adams on Wednesday.

The same schedule was given last week to Jason Autry, 39, who is also charged with aggravated kidnapping and felony first-degree murder in Bobo’s disappearance. Autry also has pleaded not guilty.

McGinley reminded the court that Adams and Autry are not co-defendants and will be tried separately, as of now.

McGinley said he wanted the prosecution to give both defendants the prosecution’s evidence within 90 days.

The defense will then have 60 days to make pretrial motions, and the state will have 30 more days to respond.

He said there will then be 30 days for judicial review.

McGinley said this is a longer schedule than normal due to the “unusual complexity” and length of the investigation.

McGinley also told prosecutors not to wait until the end of a court-ordered 90-day period to hand over evidence they have already gathered.
 ::snipping3::
Prosecutors and the TBI has released few details about their investigation. Bobo’s body has not been found, but TBI investigators have said they believe Adams and Autry were involved in kidnapping and killing her. The TBI has said it has witnesses who saw Bobo alive with the two men after she was abducted from outside her home in Darden.

 ::MonkeyNoNo::  These scum just refuse to get it, they lost their rights to a certain extent when they abducted, murdered (God knows what else) a young beautiful woman along with all their other crimes that had put them in the hole countless times before.   I mean, what does he expect to happen after he threatened someone or for that matter Autry who is constantly acting out.   If I were in charge of the jail, Id take the same strict restrictions according to the law available to me as well....they are dangerous & cannot be trusted.

Is Adams's attorney a nitwit who cheated to pass her bar, does she really have to ask what his possible punishment is lol, come on now.   Hello, earth to Thompson, your client as been charged with aggravating kidnapping & felony first degree murder....read the statutes!

On Monday, Officials would not say to which case that video was connected.

Jeffrey Kurt Pearcy was currently being held in Henderson County without bond.

NewsChannel 5 also obtained court documents from Decatur County, which suggested another man, Mark Lynn Pearcy, may have also appeared in that video.

UPDATED: Two more men arrested, charged in connection with Holly Bobo case
Jun. 10, 2014 6:56 PM

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has said two more men have been arrested and charged as accessories in connection with the kidnapping and murder of Holly Bobo.

The brothers were arrested on May 29.

Mark Pearcy and Jeffrey Kurt Pearcy have been charged with tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact, according to TBI spokesperson Josh DeVine.

DeVine wouldn’t comment further on what the evidence is or the circumstances around the charges.
 ::snipping3::
Investigators believe that Jeffrey Pearcy has possession or has knowledge of where the video is, according to the affidavit.

The affidavit states that Jeffrey Pearcy is an “accessory after the fact due to his conduct concerning the concealment of evidence into the investigation.”

Tampering with evidence is a Class C Felony and accessory after the fact is a Class E Felony.

Jeffrey Pearcy, 42, is currently being held in Henderson County without bond.

Mark Pearcy was transferred from Decatur County to Carroll County last week and is also being held without bond.

Mark Pearcy is not being represented by Baker.

According to online records, Mark Pearcy registered as a sex offender in 2000 for statutory rape.

Both men are expected to be in court tomorrow morning for their arraignments.

Additional Arrests Made In Connection With Bobo Case
CREATED 6:13 PM
by Chris Conte

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Two men from Henderson County have been arrested in connection to the Holly Bobo case, NewsChannel 5 confirmed on Tuesday.
 ::snipping3::
On Tuesday his attorney, Olin Baker, confirmed the arrests are connected to the kidnapping and murder investigation of nursing student Holly Bobo. He said the charges are related to the possible existence of a video which shows Holly after she was taken from her home in Decatur County three years ago.

"They’re saying there’s either a recording or audio or something on an electronic device that relates to the Holly Bobo case," Baker told NewsChannel 5 on Tuesday.

Baker said his client denies such a video exists.

"He (Jeff) says there’s no truth to it, no video, he’s been questioned on it by TBI and they’re out on hearsay making arrests. This is a warrant based largely on hearsay it looks to me like a police tactic to try to make an arrest and they are trying to rattle some evidence loose... the TBI is on a fishing expedition," he added.

Jeffrey Kurt Pearcy, 42, was currently being held in Henderson County without bond.

"At the end of the day there’s probably no evidence that exists. (Jeff) never met her, never met Holly Bobo. I don’t think he has any connection to the Bobo case," attorney Baker said.

NewsChannel 5 also obtained court documents from Decatur County which suggested Mark Lynn Pearcy, may have also appeared in that video.

Mark Pearcy was arrested on May 29 and also charged with Accessory After the Fact and Tampering with evidence. Those documents showed that, according to a witness, Mark Pearcy was identified as being in that video when it was recorded but officials would not comment on the content of the video.

Mark Pearcy was transferred from Decatur County to Carroll County last week, where he has been held without bond.

The TBI released a statement saying, "Out of respect for the judicial process, we cannot speak to the particular possible pieces of evidence in this case. We continue our work to follow the leads wherever they might lead. We won’t stop until we find a sense of justice and closure for the family and friends of Holly Bobo.”

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said two men have been arrested and charged as accessories in connection with the kidnapping and murder of Decatur County nursing student Holly Bobo.

Jeffrey Kurt Pearcy and Mark Pearcy, who are brothers, are charged with tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact, said TBI spokesman Josh DeVine. The brothers were arrested on May 29.
 ::snipping3::
According to an affidavit filed in Henderson County court, investigators believe Jeffrey Pearcy has “shown a visual recording on an electronic device to an individual. According to the witness, this visual recording shows information that will prove to be beneficial in the prosecution of a current ongoing investigation being conducted by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.”

Investigators believe that Jeffrey Pearcy has possession or has knowledge of where the video is, according to the affidavit. The affidavit does not describe the contents of the video.

The affidavit also doesn’t mention Bobo by name, but Pearcy’s attorney said the ongoing investigation referred to is the Holly Bobo investigation.

Jeffrey Pearcy’s attorney, Olin Baker, said the charges and claims against his client are untrue.

“The allegations against Mr. Pearcy are absolutely untrue, and we look forward to our day in court,” he said in an email statement to The Jackson Sun.

The affidavit states that Jeffrey Pearcy is an “accessory after the fact due to his conduct concerning the concealment of evidence into the investigation.”

Tampering with evidence is a Class C felony, and accessory after the fact is a Class E felony.

Jeffrey Pearcy, 42, is being held in Henderson County without bond.

Mark Pearcy, 38, faces the same charges. He was transferred from Decatur County to the Carroll County Jail last week and is also being held without bond.

Mark Pearcy is not being represented by Baker, and it was unknown Tuesday if he has an attorney.

According to online records, Mark Pearcy registered as a sex offender in 2000 after being convicted of statutory rape. He lives in Decaturville, according to the records.

Both men are expected to be in court this morning for their arraignments.

The TBI says brothers Mark Pearcy and Jeffrey Pearcy have been charged with tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact in connection with the case.

According to the affidavit, the TBI says Jeffrey Pearcy showed a visual recording on an electronic device to someone and that this recording "will prove to be beneficial in the prosecution of a current on-going investigation being conducted by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation."

Jeffrey Pearcy is believed to have possession of the recording or knows where it is, according to the affidavit.


Jeffrey Pearcy is being held in Henderson County and his arraignment is set for Wednesday morning.

Suspect Charged In Connection With Bobo Case Appears In Court
Posted: Jun 11, 2014 9:54 AM CDT
Updated: Jun 11, 2014 10:04 AM CDT

LEXINGTON, Tenn. – One of two new suspects charged in connection with the disappearance of nursing student Holly Bobo has appeared in court for the first time.

Jeffrey Kurt Pearcy, age 42, was charged with tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact. He appeared before a judge in Henderson County Wednesday morning.

He was seen walking into court in a pink prison jump suit, with his hands and feet shackled.

The judge entered a plea of not guilty on his behalf. Bond was set at $25,000, with a requirement that Pearcy wear a GPS tracker on his ankle at all times.

A second court appearance was scheduled for July 1 at 1 p.m.

Court documents obtained by NewsChannel 5 from Henderson County showed that Pearcy was arrested on May 29.

The affidavit said he has a video on an electronic device, "that will prove to be beneficial in the prosecution of a current on-going investigation being conducted by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation."

Pearcy was told not to have any contact with a witness who reported he had seen video evidence.

Suspect Charged In Connection With Bobo Case Appears In Court
June 11, 2014
CREATED 10:04 AM

LEXINGTON, Tenn. – One of two new suspects charged in connection with the disappearance of nursing student Holly Bobo has appeared in court for the first time.

Jeffrey Kurt Pearcy, age 42, was charged with tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact. He appeared before a judge in Henderson County Wednesday morning.

He was seen walking into court in a pink prison jump suit, with his hands and feet shackled.

The judge entered a plea of not guilty on his behalf. Bond was set at $25,000, with a requirement that Pearcy wear a GPS tracker on his ankle at all times.

A second court appearance was scheduled for July 1 at 1 p.m.

Court documents obtained by NewsChannel 5 from Henderson County showed that Pearcy was arrested on May 29.

The affidavit said he has a video on an electronic device, "that will prove to be beneficial in the prosecution of a current on-going investigation being conducted by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation."

Pearcy was told not to have any contact with a witness who reported he had seen video evidence.

Also charged was Pearcy’s brother, Mark Lynn Pearcy.

Attorney Olin Baker said the charges were related to the possible existence of a video which shows Holly after she was taken from her home in Decatur County three years ago.

"They’re saying there’s either a recording or audio or something on an electronic device that relates to the Holly Bobo case," Baker told NewsChannel 5 on Tuesday.

Baker said his client denies such a video exists.

"He (Jeff) says there’s no truth to it, no video, he’s been questioned on it by TBI and they’re out on hearsay making arrests. This is a warrant based largely on hearsay it looks to me like a police tactic to try to make an arrest and they are trying to rattle some evidence loose... the TBI is on a fishing expedition," he added.

NewsChannel 5 also obtained court documents from Decatur County which suggested Mark Pearcy, may have also appeared in that video.

Mark Pearcy was arrested on May 29 and also charged with Accessory After the Fact and Tampering with evidence. Those documents showed that, according to a witness, Mark Pearcy was identified as being in that video when it was recorded but officials would not comment on the content of the video.

Mark Pearcy was transferred from Decatur County to Carroll County last week, where he has been held without bond.

Affidavit: Witness heard Mark Pearcy's voice on video connected to Holly Bobo investigation
Jun. 11, 2014 12:17 PM
Written by Jordan Buie

DECATURVILLE — An affidavit filed in Decatur County General Sessions Court against Mark Lynn Pearcy says that a witness who knows Pearcy has seen a video connected to the Holly Bobo case. The witness who watched the video believes a voice on the recording is Mark Pearcy’s, according to the affidavit.

Mark Pearcy and his brother Jeffrey Pearcy are both charged with accessory after the fact and tampering with evidence in the Holly Bobo murder and kidnapping investigation, according to the TBI.

The affidavit does not mention Bobo by name but says the video referred to “shows information that will prove to be beneficial in the prosecution of a current ongoing investigation being conducted by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.” A TBI spokesman confirmed that the charges are related to the Bobo investigation.

The affidavit does not describe the content of the video.

The witness who spoke to TBI investigators has known Mark Pearcy for about 17 years, according to affidavit.

The court document states that Jeffrey Pearcy told the witness about the video, and that Jeffrey Pearcy then left the witness’s home and went to see Mark Pearcy. Jeffrey Pearcy returned to the witness’s home with the video, and used an electronic device to show the video to the witness, the affidavit says.

The witness made a statement to the TBI on May 29 that led to the arrest of the Pearcy brothers, the affidavit says.

Investigators believe the two men have possession of the video or know where it is, according to court documents.

Jeffrey Kurt Pearcy, 42, was arraigned this morning in Henderson County General Sessions Court. At this morning’s hearing, Pearcy pleaded not guilty. His bond was set at $25,000, and he was ordered to wear a GPS ankle bracelet if released on bond from the Henderson County Jail. His preliminary hearing has been set for 1 p.m. on July 1.

Nothing was said during today’s court hearing that alluded to the contents of the video.

Mark Pearcy, 38, was charged in Decatur County but was being held in the Carroll County Jail. He was arraigned earlier this week, and his bond was set at $65,000. He also has pleaded not guilty.

The court did not have a record of whether Mark Pearcy has an attorney.
 ::snipping3::
According to online records, Mark Pearcy registered as a sex offender in 2000 after being convicted of statutory rape. He lives in Decaturville, according to the records. Jeffrey Pearcy does not appear to have a prior record in Henderson or Decatur counties.

2 brothers arrested in connection to Holly Bobo case
Posted: Jun 10, 2014 7:28 PM CDT
Updated: Jun 11, 2014 02:00 PM

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -
Authorities have made two additional arrests in the ongoing investigation into the disappearance and murder of nursing student Holly Bobo.

Jeffrey Pearcy, 42, was arrested in Henderson County on May 29 on charges of tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact. His brother, 38-year-old Mark Pearcy, was arrested on the same charges two days later, on May 31, in neighboring Carroll County.

Neighbors told Nashville’s News 2 investigators searched an RV and property where Mark Pearcy was living prior to his arrest.

A warrant obtained by News 2 states that Jeffrey Pearcy “had shown a visual recording on an electronic device to an individual.” The recording “has information that will prove to be beneficial in the prosecution of a current ongoing investigation” by the TBI.

Witnesses said Mark Pearcy’s voice can allegedly be heard on the recording.
 ::snipping3::
Jeffrey Pearcy’s lawyer, Olin Baker, told News 2 the affidavit is inaccurate and his client’s position is that he has neither seen a video with Holly in it nor does one exist as far as he knows.

He added as far as he knows, his client does not know Zachary Adams or Jason Autry, the two other men charged in the case.

"He's not guilty," Baker said. "I'm just interested to see what their theory is or what evidence they think exists."
 ::snipping3::
Mark Pearcy is in custody at the Carroll County jail on a $65,000 bond. He appeared in court on June 9.

News 2 learned Mark Pearcy also has other charges unrelated to the Holly Bobo case for unlawful possession of a weapon and sex offender registration violation. He was convicted of statutory rape with a prior conviction in October of 2000 and recently failed to update the registry with a new address, resulting in the violation charge.

He is scheduled to appear in a Decatur County court for a preliminary June 16.

TBI believes video may help solve Bobo murder

 ::snipping3::

In a Henderson County court room Wednesday, Jeff Pearcy faced charges of accessory after the fact in connection with Bobo's death because of an alleged video.

The affidavit stated Pearcy "had shown a visual recording on an electronic device to an individual. According to the witness, this visual recording shows information that will prove to be beneficial in the prosecution of a current ongoing investigation being conducted by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation."

Investigators believe whatever is on the video could help them solve the Bobo murder case. The problem, according to investigators, is the people who have the video refuse to hand it over.

Pearcy and his step-brother Mark Pearcy both face charges from the TBI in connection with the case. Both are charged with tampering with evidence and accessory after the face.

The same witness who saw the video believes Mark Pearcy's voice is recorded on the video, according to the affidavit.

Neighbors said the TBI searched Mark Pearcy's property last week.

TBI investigators said the Pearcys are refusing to hand over the video, which Jeff Pearcy's attorney disputes.

Jeff Pearcy has a couple of prior driving offenses on his record. He's also been arrested in the past for contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

Mark Pearcy's criminal history is considerably longer, including vandalism, unlawful gun possession and statutory rape.

At age 24, Mark Pearcy pleaded guilty to having sex with a 14-year-old and is now on the state sex offender registry.


It's unclear why, after three years, this alleged video is now being acknowledged. It's also not known if the Pearcys knew Zachary Adams and Jason Autry, who have already been charged with kidnapping and murder in connection with Bobo's disappearance from her Darden, TN, home she shared with her family in April 2011.

Both Mark and Jeff Pearcy have pleaded not guilty and both have bonded out of jail. Jeff Pearcy has to wear an ankle monitoring system while out on bond. His bond was set at $25,000.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - One of the two brothers recently arrested in the ongoing investigation into the disappearance and murder of nursing student Holly Bobo has bonded out of jail.

Jeffrey Pearcy, 42, was arrested in Henderson County on May 29 on charges of tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact.

He was released on a $25,000 bond late Wednesday afternoon following an arraignment earlier in the day.

Under the conditions of his bond he must wear a GPS monitoring device and have no contact with a witness in the case.

News 2 has learned prior to his arrest, Jeffrey Pearcy only had minor traffic violations on his record.

His brother, 38-year-old Mark Pearcy, was arrested on the same charges days later, on May 31, in neighboring Carroll County.

Neighbors told Nashville’s News 2 investigators searched an RV and property where Mark Pearcy was living prior to his arrest.

hmmmmm....so what is the connection of these two Pearcy half bros to the three A's?   Interesting the one half-bro is a registered sex offender, their involvement is over a reported video & that makes me wonder what demented evil acts were carried out before or during the commission of Holly's murder  ::MonkeyTears::

Suspect Charged In Connection With Bobo Case Scheduled To Appear In Court

Updated: Jun 16, 2014 6:44 AM CDT

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A suspect charged in connection with the disappearance of nursing student Holly Bobo is scheduled to appear in a Decatur County courtroom Monday morning.

Mark Lynn Pearcy is scheduled to go before a judge at 9 a.m.. Pearcy was arrested on May 29 and charged with Accessory After the Fact and Tampering with evidence.

Pearcy’s brother , Jeffrey, was also arrested in May and faces similar charges. He appeared in court for the first time last week. A not guilty plea was entered and Jeffrey was released on $25,000 bond. He was required to wear a GPS tracker on his ankle at all times.

Attorney Olin Baker said the charges against the brothers were related to the possible existence of a video which shows Holly after she was taken from her home in Decatur County three years ago.

Court documents obtained by NewsChannel 5 said Jeffrey Pearcy has a video on an electronic device "that will prove to be beneficial in the prosecution of a current on-going investigation being conducted by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation."

Those documents showed that, according to a witness, Mark Pearcy was identified as being in that video when it was recorded. Officials would not comment on the content of the video.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A suspect charged in connection with the disappearance of nursing student Holly Bobo appeared in a Decatur County courtroom Monday morning.

Mark Lynn Pearcy wore a bullet proof vest over his black and white prison jumpsuit, as well as handcuffs and shackles on his feet. Pearcy told the judge he had not hired an attorney, so the court appointed a public defender from Jackson, as there was a conflict of interest with the Decatur County public defender.

The judge set his bond at $65,000, and set a preliminary hearing for next Monday.

The judge set his bond at $65,000, and set a preliminary hearing for next Monday.

Holly Bobo's family pastor spoke after the brief two-minute hearing.

"What does it mean to them every time there's a new arrest? Well there's lots of tension that goes with victim family's and any time there's additional activity in this case it is difficult on the family," said Don Franks.

Pearcy was arrested on May 29 and charged with Accessory After the Fact and Tampering with evidence.
Pearcy’s brother , Jeffrey, was also arrested in May and faces similar charges. He appeared in court for the first time last week. A not guilty plea was entered and Jeffrey was released on $25,000 bond with the requirement that he wears a GPS tracker on his ankle at all times.

Man accused in Bobo case also faces gun, sex-offender registration charges
Mark Pearcy charged with accessory, tampering with evidence in Holly Bobo case

June 17, 2014

DECATURVILLE — A man charged with tampering with evidence in the Holly Bobo investigation also faces charges of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and violation of sex-offender registration requirements, according to court documents.

The gun and sex-offender registration charges against Mark Pearcy are unrelated to the Bobo case but were filed around the same time as his arrest in that case.

According to an affidavit, investigators found a .22-caliber handgun hidden inside an RV where Pearcy had been living on Middleburg Road in Decaturville. Pearcy, 38, was convicted of aggravated statutory rape, a felony, in Decatur County in 2000.

Pearcy also is charged with a violation of registry and reporting requirements for sex offenders. According to court documents, he is accused of failing to notify the Decatur County Sheriff’s Office of his primary and secondary addresses. The state sex offender registry lists two addresses for him on Campground Road in Decaturville but does not include the RV address or an address in Lexington that’s on his arrest warrant.

Mark Pearcy and his brother Jeffrey Pearcy are both charged with tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact in the Holly Bobo kidnapping and murder investigation. Both men have pleaded not guilty.

Mark Pearcy was in Decatur County General Sessions Court on Monday for a scheduled preliminary hearing, which was postponed until 1 p.m. next Monday.

Attorney Mike Cash, of Jackson, will represent Mark Pearcy. Cash declined to comment on the case after court Monday.
 ::snipping3::
According to affidavits filed in Henderson and Decatur counties, a witness saw a video connected to the Bobo case and told the TBI about it. The witness who watched the video believes a voice on the recording is Mark Pearcy’s, according to court documents.

The witness who spoke to TBI investigators has known Mark Pearcy for about 17 years, according to an affidavit.

The court documents state that Jeffrey Pearcy told the witness about the video, and that Jeffrey Pearcy then left the witness’s home and went to see Mark Pearcy. Jeffrey Pearcy returned to the witness’s home with the video and used an electronic device to show the video to the witness, the affidavit says.

Jeffrey Pearcy, 42, is charged in Henderson County and was released on bond.

Mark Pearcy is charged in Decatur County, but is being held in the Carroll County Jail. His bond was set at $65,000.

Jeffrey Pearcy

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
Investigators believe there could be a video that shows what happened to Holly Bobo, and one man who supposedly knows something about it is now speaking out.

Jeffrey Pearcy is one of the latest men accused in the Bobo case.

"I have no video. I have not seen a video, never even heard of the video until I was questioned about it the day of my arrest," Pearcy said.

Pearcy said he's never met Holly Bobo or any of her family members. And he said he doesn't know the two men charged with her kidnapping and murder, Zach Adams and Jason Autry.

"As far as me being around anyone that would even be affiliated with anything like that, I wouldn't want to hang around people like that. I work, and I come home and I raise kids," Pearcy said.

Yet, Pearcy and his half-brother, Mark Pearcy, now stand accused of hiding some sort of video that could help investigators solve Bobo's murder case.

"I don't know if they're grasping at straws," Jeffrey Pearcy said. "This is the closest thing to a modern-day witch hunt that I've ever seen."

Jeffrey Pearcy now has to wear an ankle monitoring system after going to jail. He also lost his job as a master jeweler.

"They made life a living hell for me," he said.

And he says he's struggling to raise his six kids.

Jeff Pearcy, charged in the Holly Bobo case, spoke with News 2 Wednesday

 ::snipping3::
During an interview with News 2 Wednesday, Jeff Pearcy said he knows nothing about any video.

"The first I heard about a video was when investigators were questioning me and the more that I told them I didn't know what they were talking about the more mad they got,” he said.

Pearcy says he did not know why he was being arrested last month until a few days after he'd been in solitary confinement in the Henderson County jail and was served warrants.

"I thought it was more or less like a dream but after being in that place realization started to sink in and I was like, ‘Hey they really think this?’" Pearcy continued.

The Benton County father of six says he never met Bobo but has seen her picture posted throughout the community many times since her disappearance.
 ::snipping3::

"My heart goes out to Holly's family," Pearcy told News 2.

Pearcy says he knows of Adams and Autry but has never been friends with them.

As for the person who turned him into the TBI, Pearcy believes it was someone he knows.

"I'm sure there are motives why somebody would do it. They may be gaining something or promised something in return," he said.

Pearcy has spent the past 15 years working as a jeweler in Middle Tennessee. He was fired after his arrest.

Pearcy pleaded not guilty to the charges against him and is free on $25,000 bond. He must wear an ankle monitoring device as a condition of his bond.

Pearcy will be back in court in July 1.

Holly Bobo suspect Zachary Adams faces assault charge after jail incident
By Jordan Buie, Jackson Sun 12:19 p.m. CDT June 30, 2014

Deputies say man charged with Holly Bobo's murder suicidal, assaulted officer

Zachary Adams, the man charged with the aggravated kidnapping and first-degree murder of Decatur County woman Holly Bobo, will now face charges for assaulting an officer, according to a report from the Chester County Sheriff's Department.

The report also said that Adams was overheard expressing the desire to kill himself in the Chester County jail where he is currently being held.

On Friday June 13, Chester County Sheriff Deputy Mark Griffin received an incident statement from corrections officer Mark Morris which stated that Morris had overheard Adams make suicidal comments, "specifically to throw himself from the highest point to which he could climb inside his cell," a report sent out from the sheriff's department today said.

"I advised second shift supervisor, Sgt Brown, to have (sic) Inmate Adams moved to a specialized cell so that he could be monitored and observed (sic) twenty-four hours perday to prevent him from injuring himself," Griffin wrote in the report.

Correctional officers Jordan Phelps, Keith Crowe and Cody Riley later made statements that the three of them entered Adams' cell in order to move him and that Adams refused and resisted.

The officers said Adams jerked away from Riley and struck Riley with his hand. The officers reported that Crowe sprayed Adams with a chemical agent in order to restrain him and that Adams continued to resist and struck Phelps "on or about the nose."

The officers stated that Adams was restrained, but continued to resist and "attempted to trip Crowe at least three times and had to be physically carried to the cell."

GPS Monitor Removed For Suspect Charged In Connection With Bobo Disappearance
Posted: Jul 01, 2014 9:21 AM CDT
Updated: Jul 01, 2014 1:55 PM CDT

HENDERSON COUNTY, Tenn. - One of two new suspects charged in connection with the disappearance of nursing student Holly Bobo will no longer have to wear a GPS ankle monitor.

During a brief hearing in Henderson County General Session Court on Tuesday afternoon, prosecutors told the judge that the Board of Probation could no longer monitor Jeff Pearcy's ankle monitor since he has not been convicted of a crime. The monitor will now be removed.

The judge set the next hearing for July 29 at 1 p.m. Pearcy was also warned not to contact any witnesses in the case.

When Pearcy appeared in court last month, one of the bond requirements was that Pearcy wear the tracker. He was released on $25,000 bond following that hearing.

Pearcy was charged with tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact.

New Questions About Rumored Video Evidence In Holly Bobo Case
July 7, 2014

 ::snipping3::
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation won't tip it's hand, but NewsChannel 5 has uncovered new revelations about the role of a confidential informant and whether a key piece of video evidence may really exist.

NewsChannel 5 has learned that investigators believe there could be cellphone video showing Holly Bobo after she disappeared.

"I don't believe there is any video evidence," said Fletcher Long.  Neither does his client Jason Autry,who along with Zach Adams is charged with killing Holly Bobo.
Since our exclusive interview with Autry -- he's remained off-limits, but he's kept in contact by mail.

Autry's followed recent developments on the case and insists there's no video of a crime he didn't commit.

Of course, you would expect to hear that from a murder suspect and his lawyer. We hear the same thing from Jeffrey Pearcy.

"There's nothing to any of this," said Pearcy.

He and his step-brother Mark were both arrested, charged and jailed for tampering with evidence.

A confidential informant or CI tipped the TBI that one of the brothers was seen or heard on a video with Holly Bobo after she disappeared ...

"It's ridiculous," said Pearcy. "I ain't got nothing to hide."

And maybe he doesn't.  NewsChannel 5 has learned all state charges are expect to be dropped against the Pearcy brothers by the end of the month.

"This case will be over very shortly. Hopefully on the 29th," said Jeff Pearcy's attorney Olin Baker.

So, why would the TBI do that -- especially when NewsChannel 5 has learned that there may really have been a video?

The informant may have seen a video -- but she got it wrong.

Sources tell NewsChannel 5 there was a video which shows one of the Pearcy brothers with an ex-girlfriend who just happened to look like Holly Bobo. But it's not Holly Bobo.

If that's the case, did the TBI overreach in search of smoking gun?

"They got to be desperate. This case has been going on way too long," said Jeff Pearcy.

The TBI won't comment.

Of course it's possible there could be a video somewhere that shows Bobo after her abduction.

Such evidence could help in the case against Autry and Adams.

 But Autry's attorney Fletcher Long feels arresting the Pearcy brothers on what might turn out to be a false tip is a sign of desperation by the TBI

"They still haven't solved this crime. They seem intent on arresting everyone in the western part of the state. I'd be quite nervous if I lived on that side of the river," said Long.

NewsChannel 5 has learned Mark Pearcy willingly turned over all of his cellphones from recent years to the TBI.  The question is: Will agents find any video with Holly Bobo? 

If they don't and there are no new developments then charges against the Pearcys are expected to be dropped by the end of the month.

Holly Bobo Suspect Due In Court On Jail Assault Charge
July 15, 2014

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – One of the two men charged in the kidnapping and murder of nursing student Holly Bobo is set for a hearing Tuesday on a new charge.

Zach Adams was charged last month with attempted assault for allegedly trying to attack corrections officers inside the Chester County Jail.

A report from the Chester County Sheriff's Office said Zachary Adams was being moved to a specialized jail cell on June 13 after he made suicidal comments, "specifically to throw himself from the highest point to which he could climb in his cell."

The report said Adams hit two corrections officers and tried to trip another jailer as they tried to restrain him. Adams was carried to the cell, where he was to be monitored to prevent him from injuring himself.

Zachary Adams waives right to hearing on officer assault charge
July 15, 2014

HENDERSON — Zachary Adams waived his right to a preliminary hearing this morning on a charge that he assaulted an officer at the Chester County Jail. The case will now go to a grand jury, which is scheduled to meet on Oct. 28.

Adams, 29, is also charged with the murder and kidnapping of Decatur County nursing student Holly Bobo. But today's hearing was only scheduled to be about the assault charge.

Adams has been held without bond in Chester County since his arrest in the Bobo case. Adams was indicted in March and is one of two men charged with the aggravated kidnapping and first-degree murder of Bobo, who was 20 years old when she was abducted from outside her home in April 2011.

According to a report from the Chester County Sheriff's Office, a corrections officer overheard Adams express the desire to kill himself, "specifically to throw himself from the highest point to which he could climb inside his cell." Adams is accused of hitting one of the corrections officers while they were moving him to a special cell where he could be monitored more closely on June 13, according to the report.

On June 13, Chester County Sheriff's Deputy Mark Griffin received an incident statement from Corrections Officer Mark Morris, which said that Morris had overheard Adams make the suicidal comments.

"I advised second-shift supervisor Sgt. Brown to have Inmate Adams moved to a specialized cell so that he could be monitored and observed 24 hours per day to prevent him from injuring himself," Griffin wrote in the report.

Correctional Officers Jordan Phelps, Keith Crowe and Cody Riley later made statements that the three of them entered Adams' cell to move him and that Adams refused and resisted.

The officers said Adams jerked away from Riley and struck at Riley with his hand, according to the report. The officers reported that Crowe sprayed Adams with a chemical agent to restrain him and that Adams continued to resist and hit Phelps in the nose.

The officers stated that Adams was restrained but continued to resist and "attempted to trip Crowe at least three times and had to be physically carried to the cell."

CHESTER COUNTY, Tenn. -- Holly Bobo's family is now asking anyone with information about the location of Holly's body to come forward.

The Bobo family sat in on Zach Adam's court appearance on Tuesday, where he waived his right to a preliminary hearing about his alleged assault on a Chester county corrections officer.

"It's very difficult on them. Anytime there's additional activity on the case, of course that makes it more difficult. It's a very emotional time for the family," Pastor Don Franks, the family's spokesperson, said.

Franks said the family is now asking anyone to come forward and help lay Holly to rest.

"We're very hopeful for the sake of decency someone will talk. This family desperately needs to find the body of Holly Bobo. This family desperately needs closure," he said.

Franks said the cash reward held by law enforcement still stands for anyone who speaks up and helps the family find her body. He also said he believes whoever speaks up could face a lesser charge.

If I understood correctly, the article suggests that Holly may have been acting as an informant?  Did anyone else interpret it this way?  I'm really having trouble with this scenario on so many levels, if this is what it is suggesting.

I hope TBI can get to the bottom of this case.  Something stinks here.

Prayers for Holly's family and friends.

July 24, 2014

DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. -- As the investigation of the Holly Bobo disappearance begins to heat up, two men are running for the open Decatur County sheriff's spot in the August election.

Voters will decide between Republican Keith Byrd and Democrat Pat Dabbs.

Both contenders agree solving cases like Holly Bobo's murder is a top priority.

"More than anything I'd like to see some closure on the case, see the family get closure," Byrd said.

"I will do everything in my power to work the Holly Bobo case and any other cases that are unsolved, help find comfort and hopefully find things that haven't come up," Dabbs said.

Both men work at the Parsons Police Department. Byrd works there part-time and Dabbs, the assistant chief, is on leave until after the election.

Election Day is Thursday, Aug 7. Early voting is currently underway.

Witness: Video showed emotional Holly Bobo tied up, assaulted
Posted: Jul 29, 2014 10:43 AM CDT
Updated: Jul 29, 2014 5:29 PM CDT

LEXINGTON, Tenn. - A longtime friend of Jeff Pearcy, one of four men charged in the Holly Bobo case, says she saw a video of the missing nursing student being sexually assaulted by kidnapping and murder suspect Zachary Adams.

Sandra King testified in a Henderson County courtroom Tuesday that Bobo appeared “emotional” in the video. She was also tied up.
 ::snipping3::
A spokesperson for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation says the agency has seized several phones including Pearcy's and is currently waiting for an access code from Apple to get access to his phone. They have not seen the video just yet but believe it's on one of the phones the confiscated.

In the meantime, the case against Pearcy was bound over to a grand jury.

Witness Claims To Have Seen Alleged Video Featuring Bobo
CREATED 7:03 AM - UPDATED: 4:30 PM

 ::snipping3::
During the hearing, the state called witness Sandra King, who was believed to have lived with Pearcy for about two months from March to May 2014. It was not immediately known if the two were linked romantically.

King claimed she saw a video, about 30 and 45 seconds in length, featuring a woman crying with her hands tied-up. King said the woman looked like Holly Bobo. She indicated Pearcy’s half-brother Mark shot the alleged video.

“He [Jeff] told me Mark [Pearcy] had video showing Zach Adams having sex with Bobo,” said King.

When asked by the state attorney what she saw, she responded, “I seen [sic] a woman tied up. She was crying… she was blonde. Yes, it looked like Holly Bobo. I did not want to see more.”

King claimed to have seen the video on May 14 and went to Tennessee Bureau of Investigation two weeks later.

“I wasn’t sure I wanted to get involved with this mess,” she said when asked why she waited so long to go to investigators.

An agent with Tennessee Bureau of Investigation went to King’s house and recorded a phone conversation with Pearcy, which was played in court.

"You know that video of Holly? If it was you, I would have watched it,” King said, while trying to entice Pearcy.

Pearcy responded, “yes."

He claimed he didn’t understand her during the conversation. Pearcy said his ex-wife is also sometimes referred to as Holly.

Another hearing has been scheduled for October. Mark Pearcy has been held in Carroll County without bond.

During today’s hearing, the state called witness Sandra King who testified she saw a video, about 30 and 45 seconds in length, featuring a woman crying with her hands tied-up and crying. Sandra King said the woman had blond hair and looked like Holly Bobo.

So the creeper is saying the sex tape is of his brother and his ex-wife who happens to be named Holly?

Then why not show the video and prove this and all will be settled?

Simple as that, Einstein.

Congratulations to the bride and groom and to their families!  I hope they have many happy years together.  As many of you know, Whitney is Holly Bobo's cousin.  Not to put a shadow on their happiness, but it's so sad Holly won't have a wedding nor any of the other things she may have had in the future, like children and etc.  ::MonkeyTears::  When the evil one(s) took Holly's life, they took so much away not only from her, but from her parents, her brother and other family members and friends. 

Whitney looked lovely in her wedding dress.  JMHO  ::rhino::   ::buzzbee3::

Whitney Duncan Marries Keith Tollefson
July 29, 2014

Whitney Duncan is a married woman! The country singer shared a photo of her nuptials to Keith Tollefson on Facebook on Tuesday (July 29).
The ‘Nashville Star’ finalist excitedly shared the photo with the caption, “Keith and I are hitched!” She added, “Southern wedding at Twin Oaks in TN could not have been more perfect!”
By the looks of it, the wedding was beautiful. Duncan and Tollefson are standing hand-in-hand in front of the wedding officiator. Duncan’s wedding dress is stunning a long white gown that appears to be backless. Duncan completed her fairytale look with a sheer veil.
Her now husband looked like Prince Charming in a dark suit as the two stood between large columns. After posting the photo, Duncan received an outpouring of attention and likes from her Facebook followers.

Readers react to witness saying she saw Holly Bobo video
August 4, 2014

We offer selected comments from The Jackson Sun's online Facebook page on a recent post about a witness testifying that she saw Holly Bobo tied up in a video. Some comments have been edited for space, grammar and punctuation.

Jackson Sun Facebook post: Witness says she saw Holly Bobo tied up in video

Wanda Lee: Why isn't she charged with something like the men that supposedly saw or knew about the video? I don't know how someone could see something like that and not immediately go to the police.

Kristen Cates: How could you see something like that and not report it immediately? She should be charged as well.

Tonya Rena Burton: All of these people pointing fingers after the fact! If you see a video as described, call the police IMMEDIATELY!!! If you see someone being harmed, taken against her will, raped, why would you video it? CALL THE POLICE!!!

Are these people backwoods? Stupid? What was in this for them? Drugs? Did they think this made them look cool? So many questions I have ...

I hope Holly's mother can take all of this. To know her child went through so much before she died.

ChrisLisa Rinks: I feel so terrible for the Bobo family!! Just can't fathom the evil that people can do to others and their families!

New 24th District DA inherits Bobo case, meth problem
August 8, 2014

DECATURVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
Hansel McAdams' 16-year run as district attorney of Tennessee's 24th District ended at the hands of Matt Stowe, a young Harvard Law School graduate who has lived there for just five years.

Stowe now inherits the Holly Bobo case and a huge meth problem.

Stowe, a highly ranked Harvard Law School graduate who clerked for Sandra Day O'Connor, ran on credentials and integrity.

McAdams was district attorney for 16 years. He was criticized for using confiscated drug cars and planes for personal use in 2011.

Stowe believes that was not why he won. He said the former district attorney was doing a poor job with the meth epidemic and violent crime.

"I realized I belong in a small community," Stowe said. "The same bad apples are getting out and committing the same crimes over and over again."

Stowe has spent summer nearby since his boyhood, and his family has been here for a century. He raises rabbits, is a beekeeper, and is the four-time sunflower champion of Benton County.

It was appealing to voters.

"Once I had the belief that we could live in a safer Tennessee, all I had to do was tell other people that they could live in a safer Tennessee," Stowe said.

Now, Stowe takes over five counties, as well as the Bobo murder case. He said he is ready to review the files immediately.

"I'm going to make sure we bring to justice the people committing crimes in that case," he said.

Judge angered after Holly Bobo suspect Mark Pearcy fails to appear in court
Posted: Aug 18, 2014 9:17 AM CDT
Updated: Aug 18, 2014 2:29 PM CDT

DECATURVILLE, Tenn. -
A court hearing for Mark Pearcy, one of two brothers charged in the Holly Bobo case, has been postponed after he failed to show up to court in Decatur County Monday morning.

Pearcy is in federal custody following a grand jury indictment on June 16 charging him with two counts of unlawful transport of firearms.

Pearcy is charged along with Joe Pearcy. The 66-year-old man is charged with selling a firearm to Mark, who is a convicted felon.

Mark Pearcy was not in court Monday morning because state prosecutors said they could not get him from federal custody.

Judge Ricky Wood admonished prosecutors for not notifying the court about the federal charges, saying he does not like handling cases this way.

“As you can see, we have plenty of witnesses and everyone else in the courtroom,” Judge Wood said. “I don't like the way this is being done.”

He continued, “I'll give you a date and I expect that if it is not going to go to hearing that people are notified in advance. You understand me?” Contempt actions in court will come into play.”

The hearing is now set for September 22 at 9 a.m.
 ::snipping3::
Jeff Pearcy, who was in the court audience, once again professed his innocence.

“I didn't see the first TBI agent here and they didn't have [Mark] here,” he said. “It is just a fiasco.”

Bobo's family was also frustrated by Monday's postponement. The family designated Decatur County Sheriff-Elect Keith Byrd as their family spokesman after the court hearing.

“The family feels like this morning was a waste of time and technically it pretty much was,” he said. “It's embarrassing for the state that they did not have things together.”

Byrd is a longtime friend of the Bobo family. The Bobo's make it a point to attend all court hearings involving Holly's Case.

“Personally I think they dropped the ball this morning,” he said. “We are interested in justice.”

He continued, “The wheels of justice are turning slowly right now, but this morning they pretty much came to a stop.”

Byrd takes office on September 1.

He told News 2 he is already working with companies that can help his office locate Bobo's remains.

“My biggest goal is to find Holly,” he said. “I am going to be working very diligently on that.”

Pearcy is next scheduled to appear in a Jackson, Tennessee federal court on September 17.

Mark Pearcy hearing reset in Bobo case; Pearcy in federal custody
August 18, 2014

 ::snipping3::
Investigators have said Pearcy and his brother, Jeffrey Pearcy, have knowledge of a video that could help investigators solve what happened to Bobo after she went missing from her Decatur County home more than three years ago.

The Pearcy brothers haven't turned over the video, investigators have said.
Jeffrey Pearcy has maintained his innocence and has also said his brother is innocent and that they have no knowledge of any video.

When Mark Pearcy's name was called for the court hearing today, he wasn't there.

Attorneys for the state said Pearcy is in federal custody in Jackson. Pearcy was indicted by a federal grand jury on June 16 on two charges of illegal firearm possession.

"It's the state's responsibility to get him here," Wood told them.

"I was not aware that this was to take place today," the prosecutor replied.

The state was then given about 10 minutes to make some phones calls to see if Pearcy could be transferred to Decatur County for his preliminary hearing.

When attorneys came back, they said Pearcy couldn't be transported to Decatur County today.

Pearcy's court-appointed attorney, Michael Cash, also wasn't in court. Attorney Michael Thorn said he was hired by the Pearcy family to represent Mark.

Wood said he couldn't officially take Cash off of the case until he also appeared in court.

"It's upsetting how this has been handled," Wood said. "My problem is why didn't someone say something before today?"

Wood said he had two options: continue the case and reset it, or dismiss the case all together.

Both attorneys asked that Wood continue the case with a preliminary hearing set for Sept. 22.

"If I grant a continuance, you can't guarantee he'll be here again," Woods said.

State attorneys said they will do everything they can to get Pearcy in court for the September date and that if they can't, proper notification will be made well before the 22nd.

Woods said that he wasn't going to tolerate this issue again.

New Decatur Co. sheriff plans new search for Holly Bobo's body
August 31, 2014, Updated September 1, 2014

DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. -- The new Decatur County sheriff said one of his priorities is to find nursing student Holly Bobo's body.

When Keith Byrd officially takes office tomorrow morning, he will begin his plan to bring closure to the Bobo family and West Tennessee.

"I'd like to be responsible for finding her, and that's what we're going to try to do," Byrd said.

He said he is putting together a plan to search for Holly's remains.

"I'm just trying to put together every scenario in my head and get all the people lined up," he said.

Byrd said earlier this year he helped the TBI search different areas in the Bobo case, and he wants to continue searching as sheriff.

He said he has officials from several agencies committed to search land and water when the TBI shares what leads they may have.

"I don't know what they know, but they may have a speck of information that might lead us to a new place to look," Byrd said.
 ::snipping3::
Byrd said he will not ask volunteers to help with the new search for Holly's body.
 ::snipping3::
The two men charged in Holly's death and disappearance are scheduled to be back in court in December.

Zach Adams and Jason Autry were both indicted on charges of first-degree felony murder and especially aggravated kidnapping.

DECATURVILLE, TN (WSMV) -

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation confirmed human remains have been found in Decatur County on Sunday morning, but would not say if it was connected to the disappearance of Holly Bobo.

The Decatur County Sheriff, Keith Byrd says two hunters from Benton County, found a skull around 10 a.m.

Deputies took statements from the men, but did not question them any further.

Officials say more than a half a dozen people are in the woods investigating.

The TBI is also at the scene looking for any more clues.

Officials say the skull will be sent to the lab, but Sheriff Byrd says that it will take several days before they know anything about the remains, maybe longer.

The TBI strongly stated that they have not linked the discovery to the disappearance of nursing student Holly Bobo.

Sheriff: No indication remains are Holly Bobo's
Nichole Manna, The Jackson Sun 7:27 p.m. CDT September 7, 2014

 ::snipping3::
The skull, Byrd said, was not buried in the ground, and no other evidence was found.

Two people are missing in Decatur County, including Bobo, he said. He said forensic testing will be able to determine how long the skull has been there, and DNA tests will be done to determine whose skull it is.

Right now, crews from the sheriff's department and Tennessee Bureau of Investigation are trying to find any other obvious bones, but have not started digging, Byrd said. The search area is about half an acre right now.

It's unknown how long investigators will be at the search site, which is secured, Byrd said.

District Attorney General Matt Stowe said further updates may not be available for a few days, until after testing is done.

HOLLADAY This afternoon, two SUVs and yellow tape blocked off the entrance to a little side road off County Corner Road beside where a 100-foot metal radio or cellular tower stands.

 ::snipping3::
Hill looked back into the maze of logging woods where the hunters found the bones. "This leads to logging woods that go all over the place back in there," he said.

The woods lead to almost 2,000 acres of uninhabited hardwoods or cut-over, according to Cory Tubbs, who works at the Tubbs Sawmill about a half mile down County Corner Road.

Tubbs said he knows because his family owns the property. Tubbs said his family is perturbed by news of the find, but mostly perplexed by the nature of it, and the timing.

"I don't know what to think," he said. "They've searched back here so many times (for Holly Bobo,) and they are just finding this, now?"

Authorities have said that there are two people currently missing in Decatur County, TN but what are the odds that a skull would be found so close to the home of one of the murder suspects?

However, i have to scratch my head as to why, if this is the remains of Holly Bobo, why the suspects did not bury the body. Unless they did in a shallow grave and it was dug up by animals.

TBI Announces 10 p.m. News Conference In Decatur Co. To Address Found Human Remains
CREATED Sep 7, 2014 - UPDATED: Sep 8, 2014 | 1:17 PM

DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. - The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation announced Monday night they will hold a 10 p.m. news conference in Decatur county to address human remains found there.

The remains were found Sunday in a remote area just off I-40 in the small community of Holladay. Officials said two hunters out digging for the herb ginseng discovered the human skull lying on top of the ground.
The skull was taken in for DNA testing at the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation crime lab in Memphis.

Decatur County Sheriff Keith Byrd said Monday that testing could quickly exclude the remains from belonging to missing nursing student Holly Bobo. He added they could easily belong to a hitchhiker from the nearby interstate.

Maybe not Holly?

BREAKING: TBI says remains found Sunday are Holly Bobo
Jordan Buie, The Jackson Sun 10:02 p.m. CDT September 8, 2014

DECATURVILLE The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation announced tonight that it has found the partial remains of missing nursing student Holly Bobo.

The agency made the announcement at a 10 p.m. news conference at the Decatur County Sheriff's Department. The development in the case came when two Benton County men found a human skull Sunday morning in the woods along a logging road adjacent to County Corner Road in northern Decatur County.

The men notified the Decatur County Sheriff's Department. who then contacted the TBI.

Investigators sent the skull to the TBI forensics lab in Memphis.

The lab determined today that the remains were Bobo's.

TBI confirms remains in Decatur County were those of Holly Bobo
Posted: Sep 07, 2014 3:58 PM CDT
Updated: Sep 08, 2014 10:10 PM CDT

 ::snipping3::
Mark Gwyn, the Director of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, made the announcement Monday. He first offered his condolences to the Bobo family before confirming the remains were indeed those of their 20-year-old daughter.

District Attorney General Mark Stowe said the family is expected to make a statement Wednesday.

Decatur County Sheriff Keith Byrd said Monday a skull was found by two farmers who were searching for ginseng in a wooded area off County Corner Road in Holladay, Tennessee.

“It was partially buried in leaves, but you could see enough of it to tell that it was indeed a human skull,” Sheriff Byrd told News 2. “There wasn't anything there but bone.”

The area where the skull was discovered was off a log road that has grown over, making it difficult access by car.

“Of course with an ATV, you could,” the Sheriff added.

Justice is coming and anyone who took part in or did nothing to help this beautiful girl when she was in danger will serve consequences in this life and suffer greatly in the next.

I have no doubt the DA is on fire to move forward with his case now. 

The canaries will be singing and I'm already saddened by what we are going to learn of what happened to dear Holly.   ::MonkeyTears::

Authorities confirm remains of missing nursing student Holly Bobo discovered
Published September 09, 2014


Authorities in Tennessee say that a human skull discovered over the weekend in rural Decatur County was that of nursing student Holly Bobo, who disappeared in April 2011.

Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director Mark Gwyn told a news conference late Monday that Bobo's remains were found near her home in the town of Parsons, approximately 110 miles east of Memphis.

Two men discovered the skull Sunday, approximately 10 miles from property owned by the family of Zachary Adams, who has been charged in Bobo's kidnapping and murder. Authorities had previously searched the area this past March. Adams has pleaded not guilty, as has Jason Autry, who is also facing murder and kidnapping charges.

Holly Bobo Family Statement, Comments From Sheriff & District Attorney
Tue, Sep 09 2014, 01:07 PM CDT
 ::snipping3::
A statement was delivered by Steve Farese Sr, the spokesman for the Bobo family on behalf of Dana, Karen and Clint Bobo.
"On behalf of Holly we would like to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers. We will never understand the actions or the motives of those who took Holly from us. Those responsible will be afforded a trial. As an innocent victim Holly had no such right. Although in prison they can breathe and visit with loved ones, not Holly. We've lost a precious daughter...but those responsible have lost their souls.
The family knows that Holly is in a better place. We hope that no family will have to experience what we have endured.
The family has asked for privacy to grieve." 
Sheriff Keith Byrd also spoke not as Sheriff, but as friend to the family.

Somewhere in the woods near the University of Tennessee at Knoxville are decomposing bodies whose owners willed them to science. It's a forensic anthropology research facility, commonly referred to as the "Body Farm" by students.

Those who decide to donate their bodies to the study of human decomposition give a gift that allows the living to draw answers from beyond the grave, and hopefully bring killers to justice.

The value of such gifts may shine brightest at times like this, when forensic anthropologists are using their research in hopes of gathering evidence and providing answers to the family of Holly Bobo.

A team of those experts traveled to Decatur County from Knoxville on Tuesday, according to Decatur County Sheriff Keith Byrd. A workstation was constructed at the site where Bobo's partial skeletal remains were found on Sunday just north of County Corner Road.
 ::snipping3::
On Tuesday, The Jackson Sun requested a comment from the UT Forensic Anthropology Center, but a university spokeswoman said forensic scientists from the school do not comment during an ongoing case in which they are working.

According to the UT Knoxville Forensic Anthropology website, study of the field began at the university in the early '70s, with a Dr. William Bass. The research facility, on 1.3 acres, is "the first of its kind to permit systematic study of human decomposition," the website says. Bodies at the facility are arranged in manners to simulate a crime scene.

Story Updated: Sep 11, 2014 at 12:56 PM CDT
DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. -- A man says he regularly saw both Zach Adams and Jason Autry in the area where Holly Bobo's remains were found.

Adams and Autry have both been indicted for Bobo's kidnapping and murder.

John Tubbs said he has known both men most of his life. He said they often were in the area.

"Him and Jason both. Jason rode a dirt bike through there quite a bit," Tubbs said.

He said his father's business, Tubb's Sawmill, closed its doors earlier this week, overwhelmed by the discovery of Holly Bobo's remains less than a quarter of a mile away and all the investigators and media that followed.

"It's hard to be here right now running the mill, I mean knowing she was right there," Tubbs said.

Wednesday, investigators still swarmed the area where two ginseng root hunters found her skull on Sunday. The TBI said at least 30 investigators from multiple agencies are on the scene.

Eyewitnesses said they have seen cadaver dogs, four-wheelers and dozens of cars since the TBI took over the investigation.

"They come down here yesterday and went down this old logging road right here, went down into the swamp I reckon," Tubbs said.

Newly elected District Attorney Matt Stowe was also on the scene Wednesday

DECATURVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
Investigators with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation have cleared the scene where the human remains of Holly Bobo were found in Decatur County on Sunday.

The TBI says they cleared and released the scene on Wednesday, but they are still continuing to investigate the case.

The agency is not releasing any information about what, if anything, was recovered from the area.
 ::snipping3::
The TBI says no additional arrests have been made in the case since the remains were found.

Decatur County Sheriff Keith Byrd said on Tuesday that other arrests in the case will be forthcoming.

One of the ginseng hunters, Larry Stone, expressed his condolences to the Bobo family on Facebook. Stone posted a picture of flowers he said he left near the place where he found the remains.

"I feel so much sorry and pain for her family," Stone wrote.

Man Charged in Holly Bobo Case Denies Video, Fears for Safety
First published September 11th 2014, 6:55 pm

One of the men charged in connection with the murder of Holly Bobo — the 20-year-old nursing student whose remains were found this week, more than three years after she went missing under suspicious circumstances — said his life “will never be the same” and again denied seeing a cell phone video that purportedly shows what happened to the woman.

Authorities say Jeffrey Pearcy, 42, had a cell phone video that has evidence that would be helpful in the investigation into Bobo’s death. Pearcy denied it, and in he and his brother were charged with tampering with evidence. On Thursday, three days after Bobo's remains were found in a Tennessee woods, Pearcy told NBC News he’s never seen any video and that the charges have ruined his life.

“My life will never be the same. I mean it’s taken everything from me. I can’t walk to a grocery store, I can’t do anything without people always stopping and whispering and saying this or that,” Pearcy said in an interview.

I am sure there is some relief for the Bobo family with the discovery of some of Holly's body.  But I can't help but think they probably held out a sliver of hope she was still alive and now that sliver is gone, like Holly is gone.  I pray they have some peace knowing for the past three years Holly has not been suffering or in pain as they have experienced suffering and pain.  My prayers that they may find comfort and assurance that passes all understanding.

WILLIAMSON COUNTY, Tenn. -
One of the two men charged in the death of Holly Bobo has been moved to the Williamson County jail.

Zachary Adams, 30, was transferred from Chester County Saturday and booked just before 3 p.m.

Sharon Puckett, spokesperson for the Williamson County Sheriff's Office, confirmed to News 2 that Adams is being held in the jail but declined to comment further.

Josh DeVine, the Public Information Officer for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, told News 2 it was a procedural move.

In an email, DeVine wrote, "This was a procedural move several weeks in the works to a facility with more resources and manpower. It has nothing to do with any specific development in the case."

According to the Chester County jail, they only have about 80 beds for inmates while the Williamson County jail has about 400.

Adams is charged alongside Jason Autry with especially aggravated kidnapping and felony first degree murder in Bobo's disappearance and subsequence death.

Autry remains at the Riverbend Maximum Security Institution in Nashville.

Zach Adams' brother charged with tampering with evidence on the day of Bobo's disappearance
By Jordan Buie
September 18, 2014

Agents from the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation have arrested Zach Adams' younger brother on a charge of tampering with evidence in the Holly Bobo murder and kidnapping case, the TBI said today.

Recently, during the course of the investigation, TBI agents developed information that on April 13, 2011, John Dylan Adams disposed of items he knew to be of "evidentiary value to the case," the TBI said. The TBI did not say what evidence he is accused of disposing.

An arrest affidavit filed in the Decatur County Courthouse details the reason for the arrest.

"On September 17, 2014, this agent heard Dylan Adams tell other agent with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation that on April 13, 2011, Dylan Adams disposed of item(s) he knew possessed evidentiary value relating to Holly Bobo," the report said. "This offense did occur in Decatur County."

John Dylan Adams, known as Dylan, is the brother of Zachary Rye Adams. Zach Adams faces felony murder and aggravated kidnapping charges in connection to Bobo's death.

On Wednesday evening, TBI agents arrested Dylan Adams, 26, of Decatur County, without incident and charged him with one count of tampering with evidence. He was booked into the Madison County Jail, where he is being held without bond.

TBI special agents began their investigation into Bobo's disappearance on April 13, 2011, the same day the 20-year-old nursing student disappeared from her home. In the years since her disappearance, there has been an ongoing and collaborative effort among TBI agents, the 24th District Attorney General's Office, and the Decatur County Sheriff's Department to thoroughly follow all leads surrounding her disappearance, the TBI said.

TBI spokesperson Josh DeVine said Dylan Adams was arrested on a warrant, but has not been indicted.

He said this arrest shows once again the TBI's determination to punish everyone involved in Bobo's disappearance.

"We are going to do whatever it takes to find justice for the friends and family of Holly Bobo," he said, "and follow evidence where it might lead."

The TBI is back at the Adams' family home and has a vehicle parked in the driveway along with several other unmarked cars. There is no word on what they're searching for.

Cindy Adams, mother of Dylan and Zachary Adams, spoke about the latest developments:

"To my knowledge, my son was released from jail on all criminal charges on Aug. 13 and was in protective custody of the TBI as a state witness. We have not been contacted by the authorities.

"The family was not aware of what led to the arrest of my son.

"We are confused and perplexed about any additional charges that have been brought upon Dylan, and we have major concerns with this investigation."

Investigators search house of suspect in Holly Bobo case for 3rd time
Posted: Sep 19, 2014 6:17 PM CDT
Updated: Sep 19, 2014 6:21 PM CDT
Reported by Carley Gordon

DECATURVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has searched the home of one of the suspects in the Holly Bobo case for the third time.
Channel 4 has exclusive video of agents at the home of Zachary Adams rolling up a large item and loading it into their truck.

Zachary Adams was arrested earlier this year on charges of murder and kidnapping in connection to the disappearance of the 20-year-old nursing student, who went missing from her home in April 2011.

The TBI would not say why they were on the property, which belongs to the Adams family. Zachary Adams lived in one home and his grandfather lived in another.

Investigators would not say what they were looking for this time around, but family members say authorities took shell casings and a piece of the mattress in the master bedroom and tore up a large part of the wood floor. They say the home is now unlivable.

 ::snipping3::

The search comes one day after investigators arrested Zachary Adams' brother, Dylan Adams, in connection to the case.

Dylan Adams is charged with tampering with or fabricating evidence.

According to a warrant, investigators interviewed him on Wednesday night. During the interview, he reportedly told them that he disposed of evidence the day that Bobo was abducted.

 ::snipping3::

That brings the total number of arrests to five, including Jason Wayne Autry, who has also been charged with kidnapping and murder in the case. Jeffrey Pearcy and his stepbrother, Mark Pearcy, are both charged with tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact.

Earlier this month, two Benton County men discovered a human skull while searching for ginseng in a remote, wooded area off County Corner Road near Holladay. The TBI later confirmed the remains belonged to Bobo.

 ::snipping3::
Investigators have said repeatedly that it isn't over and expect to see more arrests.
 ::snipping3::
Dylan Adams is scheduled to appear in court Monday morning. Right now, is being held in the Madison County jail without bond. At last check, he had not hired an attorney

Family reacts to arrest of Dylan Adams on evidence tampering charge in Holly Bobo case; TBI seen at Adams family property again Friday


 ::snipping3::

The Jackson Sun corresponded with Leigh Ann Griggs, a cousin of the Adams brothers on their mother's side, on Thursday. Griggs has spoken before on behalf of the Adams family.

Her words Thursday indicated sympathy and prayers for the Bobos, but also her strong belief in the innocence of her kin.

"We share the community's devastation in finding out that Holly is no longer with us," Griggs wrote. "We continue to pray for strength and understanding for her family."

Griggs said she had no comment about the charges announced Thursday against John Dylan Adams, who goes by Dylan, on one count of tampering with evidence in the case. According to court documents, Dylan Adams, 26, told TBI agents that he disposed of an item or items he knew possessed evidentiary value relating to Holly Bobo. The TBI did not say what evidence he is accused of destroying, but did say that it happened the same day Bobo was kidnapped.

Zach Adams, 30, was indicted in March on charges of murder and kidnapping in the death of Bobo. A second man, Jason Autry, 39, was indicted on the same charges in April.
 ::snipping3::
Speaking for the Adams brothers' family, Griggs wrote, "We feel, as always, that the true person/persons responsible for this horrendous crime have not yet been apprehended; and as always, continue to pray for the truth and justice that the Bobo family seeks and deserves."

Griggs has been a strong defender of Zach Adams since early on after the TBI's announcement of its investigation into his role in Bobo's disappearance. Zach Adams was indicted shortly after the TBI searched the property where he and his brother both lived, on Adams Lane in Holladay, in late February and early March.

Agents were seen searching the property again on Thursday, but the TBI has not commented on whether anything was found.


On Sept. 9, the day after Bobo's remains were identified, Griggs wrote on her Facebook page: "I pray for justice for (Holly) and her family, while maintaining my belief that the people arrested so far, are innocent of this heinous crime."

A woman named Susan Miller thanked her. Griggs responded by writing, "I love Zachary too. I know what he looked me in the eye and told me. I also know what the evidence does not say. Killers lie. People lie. People change. Drugs change people. EVIDENCE DOES NOT LIE. It can be manipulated, but it does not lie. If I thought for one minute, Zachary had any part in this, I would want him punished. It would make me sick, and I would want him punished. I would not love him any less, but I would want him punished."​

She needs a reality check too, IMO.

She knows the history, and she knows all about another probable murder on the other side of her family supposedly by another strung out meth head.  Seriously, has she really never "thought for one minute"???

Suspect in Bobo case has mind of child, cousin says
September 24, 2014

JACKSON, TN (WSMV) -
The family of the latest man accused in the Holly Bobo murder said Wednesday there's no way he could have been involved because he has the mental capacity of a child.
Dylan Adams is the brother of Zach Adams, the key suspect in the murder. He is accused of throwing away evidence.

A family member said Dylan Adams has the mental capacity of a 10-year-old, and the TBI is taking advantage of that.

"When they arrested Dylan, I said that I'm not going to stand by and let this happen to him," said Moss Miller, a cousin of Dylan and Zach Adams.

Miller owns two car dealerships in Jackson, TN. He told Channel 4 News there's something everyone needs to know about Dylan Adams.

"If they have been around this young man for very long, they will understand that he is not mentally capable," Miller said.

Investigators arrested Dylan Adams last week. According to the warrant, he admitted to multiple TBI agents that he discarded evidence the day Bobo disappeared.

"He can't even tell time," Miller said. "He can read on a limited scale, but for him to go through a legal document and decide if it's appropriate for him to sign or not, no way."

Miller said if Dylan Adams did discard evidence, it could not have been intentional.

"He has the mind of a child. Dylan will do anything you ask him to," Miller said.

Though Dylan and Zach Adams are brothers, Miller said they do not get along.

"Zachary was fairly mean to him, to the point of hitting him, so they said Dylan was afraid of him," Miller said.

Miller said he feels the TBI is taking advantage of Dylan Adams.

"Most definitely I do," he said. "I'm reluctant to say much about that. I don't want to sound like I don't believe or trust in the law enforcement that we have. However, it appears that way to all of us, all in the family."

Miller said Zach Adams found trouble early on in life.

"In earlier stages of life, he had good jobs," Miller said. "He's had a drug problem from an early age."

Miller said Zach Adams used meth and did some bad things while on it.

"If he did steal, it was to sustain his drug problem or his drug habit, but not to the point of killing people," Miller said.

Zach Adams also hung out with a rough crowd, Miller said.

"They were a pretty rowdy bunch," he said. "They called themselves 'The A-Gang.' All of their last names ended with A."

Zach Adams and Jason Autry are both charged with Bobo's murder. Another man, Shane Austin, cut a plea deal with the TBI and has been out of jail ever since.

"The skull, they all say it was about 12 miles from Zach's house," Miller said of Bobo's remains found in Decatur County. "My understanding is that the skull was found three miles from that fellow's house."

Miller said when two ginseng hunters found Bobo's skull, they also found a drywall bucket. That's why they came back to Dylan Adams' home and tore out part of the walls.

"There's no evidence that he's done anything, and they've done everything they can and destroyed the house to try and find something," Miller said.

Miller feels the investigation into Zach Adams is flawed.

"We do not believe that he did it," he said.

John Dylan Adams charged with rape in Holly Bobo case
Jordan Buie, The Jackson Sun 3:22 p.m. CDT October 14, 2014

The younger brother of the man accused of kidnapping and killing Decatur County woman Holly Bobo has now been charged with rape, along with previous tampering with evidence charges.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation announced that John Dylan Adams, 26, was indicted on the charges this morning by a special Decatur County Grand Jury. The news release said that on Sept. 17, "Adams admitted to TBI agents that he was involved in the forcible rape of Holly Bobo on April 13, 2011, at the address of 235 Adams Lane in Holladay, TN, in Decatur County."

Dylan Adams has been charged with two counts of rape, according to the indictment in the Decatur County Circuit Court.

Sept. 17 also was the day Adams was arrested on a tampering with evidence charge after the TBI said Adams told an agent that he had disposed of evidence on the day Bobo was kidnapped.

"On September 17, 2014, this agent heard Dylan Adams tell other agent with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation that on April 13, 2011, Dylan Adams disposed of item(s) he knew possessed evidentiary value relating to Holly Bobo," a warrant said. "This offense did occur in Decatur County."

John Dylan Adams, known as Dylan, is the brother of Zachary Rye Adams, who is charged with the felony murder and aggravated kidnapping charges in connection to Bobo's death. A second man, Jason Autry, also is charged with murder and kidnapping in the case. Bobo's partial remains were found in the woods of northern Decatur County last month.

Exclusive: Cousin says Dylan Adams' testimony led to his and brother's arrest
October 14, 2014

A cousin of Zach and Dylan Adams says information provided by Dylan has led the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation to make at least three arrests in the Holly Bobo case.

She says the information provided by Dylan Adams led to murder and kidnapping charges against Dylan's older brother, Zach Adams, and Decatur County man Jason Autry. Dylan Adams is charged with tampering with evidence and two counts of rape.

Leigh Ann Griggs, the brothers' cousin and a close confidant of her aunt Cindy Adams, their mother, spoke to The Jackson Sun about Dylan's arrest in the Bobo case.

She said she is concerned about how Dylan has been treated. She and another family member have said Dylan has an IQ in the low 70s and has been manipulated by investigators.

She said Dylan began cooperating with authorities on the Bobo case six days before Zach's indictment on March 5. Griggs said the family understood Dylan was supposed to have immunity in the Bobo case for giving the TBI information.

Griggs said Cindy Adams told her that Dylan was contacted by the TBI before Zach's arrest and that Dylan was interrogated for days without an attorney present.

The TBI offered the following response Tuesday to Griggs' statements.

"Out of respect for the judicial process, we will not speak to the specific details of this or any ongoing investigation," the agency said in a statement to The Jackson Sun. "We continue to work this case as diligently as possible, with full regard for the law, for the sake of justice for the family and friends of Holly Bobo."

Griggs said she learned that Dylan told the TBI he saw Bobo at the Adams residence the morning she disappeared. Griggs said the TBI told Dylan to sign a paper and that he signed it. She said the family asked Dylan what the paper said and that Dylan told family members he did not know.

"He placed Holly at Zach's house the morning of her disappearance, according to the TBI," Griggs said on Sept. 23. "He can't say what time, what she was wearing, what she was doing, whether she was dead or alive, but just enough to get them an indictment against Zach and the charges dropped against him."

Griggs said Dylan was called before a special grand jury before Zach's arrest and that he testified about what happened at the Adams residence.

Griggs said Dylan was in protective custody in Memphis.

According to federal court documents, Dylan had been in federal custody since Sept. 25, 2013, when he was arrested on gun charges.

But Griggs said Dylan, prior to the TBI contacting him, was working freely in Memphis.

"He was in protective custody of the TBI, specifically Special Agent Jeff Jackson, for his cooperation with the Bobo investigation," she said. "He was supposed to have full immunity from prosecution for any knowledge he may have had."

Griggs and Moss Miller, Cindy Adams' first cousin, contend that to the family's knowledge Dylan Adams has never seen an attorney and that, because of his low IQ, he "probably does not understand his rights to even have one," Griggs said.

"He has never developed. He has the mental ability of a 10-year-old," Miller said following Dylan's arrest last month on a charge of tampering with evidence in the Bobo case. "If somebody told him to do something, he just did it. 'Here, go throw this away.' He wouldn't know why."

Griggs said Dylan does what people tell him to do. She said the family believes Dylan has been coerced into giving testimony through threats and deprivation of sleep and food.

Griggs said Dylan told the family that he told the TBI he saw a girl with blond hair at the house, but that all he saw was her hair.

"He couldn't remember if the girl was standing up or sitting down, and he couldn't remember what she was wearing and only thought the girl was Holly," she said.

Griggs said Dylan identified Jason Autry as being in the house as well. Autry was indicted on April 29 on charges of kidnapping and murder in the case. Griggs said Dylan's original story he told the family was that Zach would not allow him in the Adams house the day Dylan saw the girl with blond hair.

Griggs said that Dylan told his mother, Cindy Adams, that the girl in the house was not crying, asking for help or pleading for her life.

"I would like to add, I am concerned for Dylan's safety after today's charges," Griggs said Tuesday after the rape charges against Dylan were announced. "Again, I do not know if he had an attorney present, if he was coerced into saying he did this. It's a complete change from his initial story in which he said Zachary would not let him in the house and told him he would kill him if he ever told anyone what he saw."

Charges dropped against 2 suspects in Holly Bobo case
Posted: Oct 15, 2014 12:50 PM PST Updated: Oct 15, 2014 1:52 PM PST


DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. - Charges against two suspects in the case surrounding Holly Bobo's disappearance and murder have been dismissed.

The District Attorney General's Office confirmed to News 2 Wednesday that the state is no longer pursuing charges against John “Dylan” Adams and Mark Pearcy at this time.


The state, however, retains the right to file those charges again in the future.

The decision is based on a number of variables which the state says they cannot discuss due to the ongoing investigation into the murder of Bobo.

The District Attorney General's Office also said they have consulted with the Bobo family regarding the decision and the reasons for it

On Tuesday, however, Adams was additionally charged with two counts of the forcible rape of Bobo which allegedly occurred on April 13, 2011, the day the 20-year-old nursing student disappeared from her home in Parsons, about 100 miles west of Nashville. Those charges are not being dismissed.

DA Not Pursuing Charges Against Holly Bobo Suspect
October 29, 2014

DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. (FOX13) - The Decatur County District Attorney has not pursued formal charges against Holly Bobo suspect Jeff Pearcy, according to Pearcy's attorney. Previously, Pearcy was “informally” charged with Tampering with Evidence and Accessory After the Fact.

Pearcy's Attorney Olin Baker describes the situation as a “legal black hole.” He said the District Attorney did not take the charges before grand jury, meaning formal charges were not issued.
He added Pearcy's arraignment originally scheduled for Oct. 27 has been canceled because of this development.

This does not mean the D.A.'s Office would not be able to bring the charges before the grand jury again.

On Oct. 15, District Attorney Matt Stowe dropped the Tampering With Evidence and Accessory After the Fact charges against Mark Pearcy as well as dropped the Tampering With Evidence charge against John Dylan Adams.

Charges against Jeffrey Pearcy not yet presented to grand jury
October 29, 2014

District Attorney General Jerry Woodall said the charges against Jeffrey Pearcy in connection with the Holly Bobo case are still being pursued.

Pearcy was charged with tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact in May. Investigators said they believe he has knowledge of a video showing Bobo alive after her abduction.

Friend of Jeffrey Pearcy's, Sandra King testified in July that Jeffrey Pearcy showed her a video of Bobo tied up and crying.

Investigators at the time said they were trying to gain access into several phones they had collected in order to try and find the video.

After the preliminary hearing, his case was sent to the grand jury, which met on Oct. 21.

Olin Baker, Pearcy's attorney, said tonight that the case against Jeffrey Pearcy wasn't presented to the grand jury on the 21st.

"I was told they (investigators) wanted to take more time on it," he said. "I was told if it's presented, I'll be called."

Woodall confirmed tonight that Pearcy's charges haven't been dismissed and said his office is still waiting for lab work at the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation to be completed and turned in before presenting the case.

It's unknown right now when the case will be presented.

District Attorney adds new attorneys to team for Holly Bobo cases
November 3, 2014

DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. -- District Attorney Matt Stowe said he will consider the death penalty against Zach Adams and Jason Autry, the two men charged with Holly Bobo's 2011 death and disappearance.

Stowe said he is now building a team equipped to do so.

"We are putting together a section of attorneys whose particular focus and skill is the death penalty," he said.

Stowe is bringing in two new team members. Jennifer Nichols is currently the Chief Assistant District Attorney in Memphis and will assist on the Bobo case.

"She's been a part of the trial team, a key part, if not the principle part, of the team that's put several people that are on death row currently in the state of Tennessee," he said.

Carthel Smith, a Lexington attorney, was sworn in Monday as Stowe's new assistant district attorney.

Kenneth Rochelle hopes a skilled team will promise closure.

"They need to go ahead and get justice for the family and get it over with where they can resolve and go on with their lives," Rochelle said.

Stowe said choosing the new team has been his toughest job yet but he is confident as they move toward a possible trial.

"We're going to have the very best people that I know how to put together fighting it, and no, I'm not going to be nervous, I'm not going to be afraid or anything else. I have one single purpose that I think God put me here for which is to get justice for Holly," Stowe said.

Stowe said he plans to add at least one more person to his trial team.

Shayne Austin

DECATURVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
A man tied to the Holly Bobo kidnapping and murder case said the state needs to show proof or clear his name.
Shayne Austin has never been charged in the Bobo case because of an immunity deal in exchange for his cooperation and assistance. That deal has been off the table for a while.

"Shortly after that, Mr. Austin was informed by an assistant district attorney via email that they intended to revoke his immunity agreement and consider it null and void," said Luke Evans, Austin's attorney.

The state said they revoked the immunity agreement because Austin was not being truthful and was not fully cooperating. That prompted Austin to take civil action against the state.

"Mr. Austin's position was that he was immune not just from being convicted of a crime, but charged with a crime," Evans said.

Austin remains a person of interest.

"He's maintained this from the beginning, that he had nothing to do with the tragic circumstances that befell Ms. Bobo," Evans said.

In May, a chancery court judge ruled she did not have jurisdiction over the case and referred it to circuit court. That lawsuit has been sitting in the files, until now.

Evans has re-initiated that his motion for the immunity agreement be heard. He also filed a motion to compel the deposition testimony of two TBI agents linked to the Bobo investigation.

"They have yet to produce any specific incident to support their allegation to prove that he has been untruthful," Evans said.

The immunity hearing was scheduled to be heard Dec. 2 in Decatur County, but that's no longer the case. A new date has not yet been set.

Two men accept plea deal on federal gun charges
11:20 p.m. CST November 17, 2014

Mark Lynn Pearcy and his uncle Joe Pearcy pleaded guilty to federal gun charges in U.S. District Court in Jackson on Monday.

Mark Pearcy pleaded guilty to one count of possessing a firearm as a convicted felon and one count of possessing ammunition as a convicted felon. Joe Pearcy pleaded guilty to one count of knowingly selling or disposing of a firearm to a convicted felon.

The Pearcys and prosecutor Jim Powell with the U.S. Attorney's Office signed a plea agreement which dismissed a second charge for Joe Pearcy of knowingly selling or disposing of two rounds of ammunition to a convicted felon.

According to the indictment, in May of this year, Mark Pearcy was found to be in possession of a .22-caliber, semi-automatic pistol and two rounds of ammunition that were sold or given to him by his uncle. Mark Pearcy previously had been convicted of a crime punishable by imprisonment for more than one year, and was not supposed to have a gun, the indictment said. The indictment also said the charges were federal because the gun and ammo were shipped and transported in interstate commerce.

Mark Pearcy was previously convicted of statutory rape and is registered as a sex offender, according to state records.

The plea has been accepted by the U.S. Attorney's Office and both Pearcys, but it still has to be accepted by the U.S. District Court judge. If the plea agreement is accepted by Judge J. Daniel Breen, the Pearcys will be sentenced on Feb. 19.

Pearcy may again face charges in Holly Bobo case
3:56 p.m. CST November 18, 2014

Matt Stowe, district attorney general for the 24th District, said he has unfinished business with Mark Lynn Pearcy, who pleaded guilty to federal gun charges in court Monday.

"When the feds finish with him, we'll be waiting," Stowe said today.

Stowe said he will have to wait until Pearcy's federal court case is finished before he can refile state charges against Pearcy in the Holly Bobo investigation in Decatur County.

One attorney in Holly Bobo case suspended
Nichole Manna, The Jackson Sun 10:30 p.m. CST November 21, 2014

One of Jason Autry's defense attorneys in the Holly Bobo case has been suspended for 18 months by the Tennessee Supreme Court.

John Herbison was suspended Thursday after three complaints alleging misconduct, according to state documents.

Autry is one of two men charged with especially aggravated kidnapping and first-degree murder of Bobo, who disappeared from outside her Decatur County home in April 2011. Her partial remains were found in September. Autry and the other suspect in the murder, Zach Adams, are expected to return to court in December.

Attorney Fletcher Long also represents Autry. Long couldn't be reached Friday for comment.

Long and Herbison are partners in the law firm Long & Herbison PLLC Attorneys at Law.

 ::snipping3::

The Supreme Court's Board of Professional Responsibility, which regulates lawyers in Tennessee, said in a statement that Herbison's suspension will begin on Nov. 30. He'll be on active suspension for 60 days and then be on probation for the remaining 16 months.

Herbison failed to communicate with two clients in 2011 and didn't file an appeal for a third, according to state documents. The complaint against Herbison was filed in February 2013.

In addition to the suspension, Herbison is required to pay about $3,900 in fines.

Country singer Whitney Ducan wants justice for cousin Holly Bobo

POSTED 4:01 PM, NOVEMBER 24, 2014, BY MELISSA MOON

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Country singer Whitney Duncan is on a roll. After traveling the globe on the CBS reality show The Amazing Race,  Duncan released the new single “Roll All Night.” She also married her ‘Amazing Race’ teammate, Keith Tollefson, this year.

“I was so stressed out about that I think planning a wedding is almost as stressful as The Amazing Race,” Duncan said.

But she said it was a good distraction from the others things she wasn’t ready to deal with in her life.

“Yeah, ups and down throughout the whole tragedy with Holly. It’s just been a rough year,” Duncan said.

 ::snipping3::

“It’s just something still so bad it’s hard to even grasp. Who could do something like that to someone you love?” Duncan said.

Holly Bobo disappeared from her home in Darden, Tennessee, in April of 2011.

 ::snipping3::

Duncan can’t talk about the case or people involved, but says right now she just wants justice for Holly.

“I’ll be there when it matters most. It’s really hard. It’s going to be really hard, I think, to hear some of the details. That’s not what I want to think about or know,  but I’ll be there to support my family, and for Holly,” Duncan said.

Duncan says all the support the family is getting from the community is also helping.

Decatur Co. Sheriff brings in help for Holly Bobo hearings
Story Created: Dec 15, 2014 at 11:08 PM CST 
(Story Updated: Dec 16, 2014 at 8:38 PM CST  )

DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. -- For the first time, the three men charged in the Holly Bobo case will be under the same roof.

Decatur County Sheriff Keith Byrd said he is beefing up security to make sure those men stay safe at the Wednesday hearing.

"Several of us have sat down and studied this thing from A to Z," Byrd said.

Zach Adams and Jason Autry both have been indicted on charges of kidnapping and murder in the Bobo case.

Zach's little brother, Dylan Adams, is charged with two counts of rape.

Byrd said they have been preparing for this type of security with the possibility of an upcoming trial.

"A helicopter will be flying around the court square area during court, and of course he'll be looking for anything that don't look right," he said.

Byrd said he is calling in help from Parsons Police Department and Perry County Sheriff's Department. They will have double the security in front of and inside the courtroom.

"Everybody goes through the scanner, even the judge," he said.

Each of the three men will have their own officer by their side.

"The street where they load and unload the defendants, those will be armed with rifles and shotguns," Byrd said.

He said the streets around the courthouse will be closed.

The first sentence in this article says Stowe "has cut off all ties with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation...".  Farther down the article it's said that Stowe told NewsChannel 5 he hasn't cut ties with TBI, and a TBI spokesman confirm or deny. I wonder what all this means, and hopefully there will be more information.

DA For 24th Judicial District Cuts Ties With TBI
CREATED Dec 16, 2014 - UPDATED: Dec 17, 2014 | 5:45 AM

PARSONS, Tenn. – District Attorney Matt Stowe of the 24th Judicial District has cut off all ties with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, a move that could have a big impact on the Holly Bobo case.

NewsChannel 5 Investigates has learned the action would mean that TBI agents will no longer be assigned to work that district, which includes Benton, Carroll, Decatur, Hardin and Henry counties.

The TBI crime lab would also no longer be available to help local law enforcement, and TBI experts likely won't be able to testify in cases in that district. That could include the Holly Bobo case.
 ::snipping3::
According to one source with knowledge of the situation, local law enforcement demanded an emergency meeting with Stowe this week to try to resolve the situation, but Stowe did not attend that meeting.

It's possible that more details could be revealed Wednesday when a hearing is scheduled in the Bobo case. Two men charged with kidnapping and murdering Bobo, Zach Adams and Jason Autry, both have motion hearings in Decatur County.

Stowe told NewsChannel 5 he has not asked to cut ties with the TBI. Meanwhile, a TBI spokesperson refuses to confirm or deny the situation.

At DA’s Request, TBI Suspends Holly Bobo Investigation, Severs Ties with 24th Judicial District
Posted by Josh Devine, December 17, 2014

NASHVILLE – Until further notice, and at the request of District Attorney General Matthew Stowe, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has discontinued its investigation into the Holly Bobo case and severed ties with the 24th Judicial District.

“We certainly regret these unprecedented circumstances playing out in the media,” said TBI Director Mark Gwyn. “But in a meeting last week, which included 30th District Attorney General Amy Weirich, 28th District Attorney and President of the Tennessee District Attorneys General Conference Garry Brown, and Wally Kirby, Executive Director of the Conference, Stowe made allegations of misconduct by TBI and other law enforcement agencies, both local and federal. He also repeatedly stated he wanted our Agency to suspend all activities in his district, after which Weirich removed her office’s resources from the Holly Bobo case. Stowe may characterize this as a misunderstanding, but his requests were clear and I wasn’t the only one who heard it.”

Since Holly Bobo’s disappearance in 2011, TBI Special Agents have devoted thousands of hours of casework and forensic analysis. The investigative records and the results from a vast majority of the evidence submitted in the Bobo case have already been turned over to the District Attorney General’s office for his further investigation, review, and prosecution. The results of pending forensic analysis in the case will be provided in a timely manner. As of this date and until further notice, TBI personnel will no longer offer comment or information about the Bobo case or any other case originating in the 24th Judicial District.

“For years, we pursued the Bobo case with the utmost diligence and dedication for the sake of Holly’s family and friends,” said Gwyn. “We are proud of our investigative efforts and remain hopeful that justice will eventually be served.”

As a result of Stowe’s request, TBI Agents will no longer investigate new cases in the 24th District. Local law enforcement agencies will be responsible for investigating the incidents in their jurisdictions, and will also be responsible for securing and funding forensic analysis for all future cases.

In a letter to Stowe today, Director Gwyn proposed a meeting, to be facilitated by the Tennessee District Attorneys General Conference, to discuss TBI’s role in the 24th Judicial District.

“We have proudly served the 24th Judicial District – and its residents – for decades,” said Gwyn. “We hope Stowe will help us resolve these issues quickly, so we can get back to the important work of pursuing our core values of truth, bravery, and integrity in his district as the state’s lead law enforcement agency.”

TBI: Stowe requests prosecutor to replace him in Bobo case; support resumes in district
December 18, 2014

NASHVILLE -- The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has resumed support in the 24th Judicial District as District Attorney Matt Stowe requests a special prosecutor to replace him in the Holly Bobo case, according to a release from the TBI.

"Stowe has submitted a request to the Tennessee District Attorneys General Conference for the appointment of a pro tem to proceed with the prosecution of the three defendants charged in the Holly Bobo case," the release states.

Along with this decision, TBI support has been resumed to the 24th Judicial District, which includes Benton, Carroll, Decatur, Hardin and Henry counties, according to the release.

"We are committed to our relationship with those local law enforcement agencies and hope to do what we can to provide the excellent investigative and forensic resources to which they’re accustomed,” TBI Director Mark Gwyn says in the statement.

The compromise comes as a result of "thorough conversations" Thursday, the release states.

Defense attorneys in Bobo case ask judge to drop charges
5:56 p.m. CST January 1, 2015

DECATURVILLE —
Attorneys for two men charged with kidnapping and murdering Holly Bobo are asking for those charges to be dismissed, citing lack of evidence.

WTVF-TV reports the motion by the attorneys for Zach Adams and Jason Autry states that they have yet to receive "dental records analysis and forensic studies" of a skull that law enforcement says is Bobo's.
 ::snipping3::
Adams is scheduled to be in court again on Jan. 21 for a motions hearing, at which the judge could hear arguments on the defense's motion along with any other motions that are filed. Autry is scheduled for a motions hearing on Jan. 14 along with Zach Adams' brother Dylan Adams, who is charged with rape in the case. All three are expected to also file motions to seek a change of venue to move their trials out of Decatur County.

New district attorney to be chosen in Bobo case this week
7:04 p.m. CST January 5, 2015

A state official says he is close to naming a new district attorney pro tem who will take over the prosecution duties of the Holly Bobo case.

Almost three weeks ago a public dispute between District Attorney General Matt Stowe and Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director Mark Gwyn resulted in Stowe stepping away from the investigation. A new prosecutor will be named later this week, according to Wally Kirby, executive director of Tennessee District Attorneys General Conference.

It will be Kirby's job to name a new attorney to prosecute the case.

Thank you for the information, SuzyQ.  I wonder what's up with this?  I guess we'll have to wait a bit to find out.  As much as I want justice for Holly, I'd like to be sure the person/s are held accountable.  The Christina Mortensen case comes to mind, where the prosecution held information and then there was a six year fight to test DNA, all of which caused her innocent husband Michael to spend 25 years in prison.  It's not enough to get a conviction. It has to be the ones truly responsible.  I hope there hasn't been misconduct, because it could cause problems in the case.  I feel so badly for Holly's family.  They have been through so much, and now this.   ::MonkeyNoNo::  I don't know who is innocent and who is guilty of what in Holly's case, because it hasn't been tried.  I hope the horrible nightmare the Bobo family is going through is over soon.

I know what it is like to wait on a trial. It is like time has stood still and you are just treading water. You live for the next court date, so I feel very sorry for the Bobo family. Just glad they have such a good support system.

(bolded by me)
I'm so sorry you had to go through waiting for trial to bring justice for the deaths of your loved ones.  I've not forgotten SuzieQ.  :smt056  Although I haven't had this type of experience, I've seen enough times where victims and/or their families wait and wait for trial, and the trial continues to be delayed.  Oftentimes it's for the benefit of the accused, by the defense.  Sometimes it's because testing hasn't come back and sometimes it's court back log.  The waiting seems to take it's toll, and then the victims and/or their loved ones relive the crimes all over again at trial.  I think sometimes the victims are on the back burner, whether intended or not.  I agree with you SuzieQ about the Bobo's having a good support system.

Deputy DA Jennifer Nichols speaks on Holly Bobo murder investigation
Posted: Jan 08, 2015 10:23 PM CST
Updated: Jan 09, 2015 8:05 AM CST

SHELBY COUNTY, TN (WMC) -
Seasoned and well-respected Deputy District Attorney Jennifer Nichols is the new prosecutor handling the Holly Bobo murder case.

Nichols was appointed in the fall, but was taken off the case by District Attorney Amy Weirich after the 24th District Attorney Matt Stowe accused the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation of misconduct in their investigation of the Bobo case.

"I wasn't part of that," explained Nichols.

The Shelby County District Attorney's office took over as prosecutor in the Bobo case after things were smoothed over between Stowe and the TBI. Stowe has excused himself from the case.

"At the end of the day, this is a first degree murder case," said Nichols. "The elements of the case don't change."

Nichols cannot discuss the specifics of the case, but she knows a lot of people will be watching because of the interest in the Bobo murder.

"You have to prove the same thing that you would on a case that isn't a high profile case," Nichols added.

Holly Bobo disappeared in April 2011. Her body was discovered in September 2014. Zach Adams and Jason Autry have been charged with kidnapping and murder. Adam's brother, Dylan Adams, is charged with rape.

A trial date has not yet been set in the Holly Bobo murder case.

Former jailer reports being asked to help assassinate Holly Bobo suspect
Story Created: Jan 13, 2015 at 5:27 PM CST 
(Story Updated: Jan 13, 2015 at 6:52 PM CST  )

CHESTER COUNTY, Tenn. -- A former employee of the Chester County Jail has received threatening phone calls related to the Holly Bobo case and involving a plot to assassinate Zach Adams, according to sheriff's office reports.

Tommy Joe Austin reported receiving a call around 9 a.m. Sunday in which the caller told him he previously had the opportunity to "take care of" Zach Adams, according to a report from the Chester County Sheriff's Office.

Adams, one of two men charged with murder and kidnapping in the disappearance of Holly Bobo, previously has been held at the Chester County Jail.

The caller went on to tell Austin he will "pay the price" if Adams "gets off," the report states.

The caller also reportedly asked Austin how his son was doing and how the rain was at the time.

Austin said he could not tell whether the caller was a male or female.

In April of last year, Austin reported being called by an unknown male who allegedly offered to help assassinate Adams while he was transported to or from court, according to a separate report.

TBI: Analysis of evidence in Holly Bobo case finished
9:53 a.m. CST January 23, 2015

Authorities say they have completed their analysis of more than 460 pieces of evidence in the case of a woman whose partial remains were found three years after her disappearance, possibly bringing defense attorneys a step closer to seeing how prosecutors have linked their clients to her.

Two men, Zachary Adams and Jason Autry, were arrested last spring and charged with murder and kidnapping in the case of Holly Bobo, a nursing student who was 20 when she disappeared from her Decatur County home in April 2011. In October, John Dylan Adams was charged with raping Bobo. All have pleaded not guilty.

No trial has been set, and the defendants' lawyers have filed a motion to dismiss the charges. The attorneys said they had not received any evidence linking their clients to the crime. Tennessee Bureau of Investigation spokesman Josh DeVine said Thursday that some hair samples have been sent to the FBI for testing, but the TBI has analyzed all the evidence it has received.

Still, it was unclear when the defense would receive any information. District Attorney General Matt Stowe told The Associated Press that they would get the evidence they're requesting "at some point."

False report charge after jailer claims threats regarding Bobo defendant
12:06 p.m. CST February 9, 2015

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has indicted a former Chester County jailer on charges of filing a false report stating he was threatened for not “taking care’ of a defendant in the Holly Bobo case.

TBI special agents began investigating Tommy Joe Austin on Jan. 14, after Austin — a former jailer in Chester County — filed a report the day before with the Madison County Sheriff’s Office that said he received a phone call threatening violence against him and his son for not “taking care” of Zach Adams, an indicted defendant in the Holly Bobo case previously in custody in Chester County.

“During the course of the investigation, however, agents developed information Austin was not truthful about the reported threat,” a press release stated Monday. “On Feb. 2, the Madison County grand jury returned an indictment for Austin, charging the 47-year-old Reagan man with one count of filing a false report.”

Posted: Feb 23, 2015 4:40 PM CST


Shayne Austin, who has not been indicted and was originally offered immunity for his testimony in the case, apparently committed suicide out-of-state, according Luke Evans, Austin's attorney.

"Obviously a tragic loss for the Austin family and they are besides themselves with grief," said Evans.

Prayers to Shayne's family. I'm sure they loved him and are mourning his suicide. We were in the same class in 3rd grade...who would've thought that he'd grow up to be one of the evil monsters that murdered my cousin, Holly Bobo. Now he's finding out just how hot Hell is. Personally, I'm glad he can't take another innocent life. ‪#‎justiceforHolly‬

Attorney in Bobo case wants evidence or DA held in contempt
9:11 p.m. CDT March 17, 2015

An attorney for Jason Autry, a defendant in the Holly Bobo case, filed motions in the Decatur County Courthouse on Tuesday, requesting evidence against his client be turned over, charges be dismissed or that the district attorney over the case be held in contempt of court.

Autry has been charged with the first-degree murder and aggravated kidnapping of 20-year-old nursing student Bobo, who disappeared from her home in Decatur County on April 13, 2011.

John Herbison, who represents Autry along with attorney Fletcher Long, said he has still not seen a bill of particulars laying out the charges against his client, although the judge in the case ordered the evidence be turned over by Dec. 24.

"We are asking the court to dismiss the charges against my client," Herbison said. "If not, we are asking the judge to hold the district attorney pro tem in contempt of court, and to commit her to jail until she complies with the court orders."

9 p.m. CDT March 18, 2015

Shelby County Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Nichols, the prosecutor in the Holly Bobo case, released a statement Wednesday evening responding to a defense attorney's motion that requests she turn over evidence or be held in contempt of court.

"I've read the motion, disagree with many of the assertions and will file a written response in due course," Nichols said in a written statement to The Tennessean. "Defense counsel failed to mention that one of the other defense attorneys in this case filed a Motion to Vacate my appointment the day after I was appointed. So, step one is to wait for the judge to rule on the Motion to Vacate next month and he either confirms me as the special prosecutor or removes me from the case. Step two, (depending on the judge's ruling in step one) will include answering defense motions, filing our own motions, engaging in the discovery process and requesting a trial date."

On this day, 4 years ago, my cousin Holly Bobo was kidnapped. Remembering her today & praying for my family to continue to be strong. I know she is in Heaven looking down on us, and we will see her again one day. Her favorite Bible verse: "I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me." Phil 4:13

DECATURVILLE - Decatur County Circuit Judge C. Creed McGinley refused a request to remove prosecutor Jennifer Nichols from the Holly Bobo case today in response to a motion filed by defense attorneys for suspects Zachary and John Dylan Adams.
 ::snipping3::
McGinley decided not to remove Nichols from the case, after asking if she would make a statement in her own defense.

"I state unequivocally as an officer of the court that I do not have a conflict," Nichols said.

"You ought to be flattered," McGinley said as Nichols spoke. "They've been trying to get you off this case."

McGinley said if Nichols believed she did not have a conflict in the case, he would allow her to remain as special prosecutor, and determined her appointment was valid.

Nichols said she and Ray Lepone, assistant district attorney, would begin immediately working on this case.
 ::snipping3::
Additional motions will be heard in the case on June 3 at 9 a.m. Fletcher Long, attorney for suspect Jason Autry, said he intends to file motions requesting evidence in the case be turned over to the defense or that Autry's charges be dropped.

Zach Adams and Autry are charged with the murder and kidnapping of Holly Bobo, 20, who was abducted from outside her Decatur County home in April 2011. Zach Adams' brother Dylan is charged with rape.

Bobo's partial remains were found in the woods in September, according to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

New lawyer in Holly Bobo case doesn't expect delay
6:34 p.m. CDT May 13, 2015

The new lead defense attorney for one of the men charged with the first-degree murder and kidnapping of Holly Bobo said he doesn't think the change in attorneys will cause further delay in the case.

Mike Flanagan will become the main defense attorney for Jason Autry after Autry's previous attorney, Fletcher Long, was found guilty of extortion in another case Tuesday. Long will no longer be part of Autry's defense team.

Flanagan, who has worked on Autry's case with Long, told The Jackson Sun that the transition to his new role as the lead defense attorney for Autry will be seamless.

"I don't see any reason for a delay," Flanagan said.

Dylan Adams charged in rape, murder of Holly Bobo
May 20, 2015

 ::snipping3::
All together, three people face charges in connection with the case, including Jason Autry and Dylan Adams' brother, Zach Adams.

Until Wednesday, Dylan Adams only faced charges for rape and tampering with evidence.

A grand jury indicted Dylan Adams Tuesday afternoon for first-degree murder, especially aggravated kidnapping and especially aggravated rape.

The way the charges are written may spell out more about what exactly investigators think happened in the case.

In Bobo's kidnapping, the charges say it was done with the use of a deadly weapon, and the kidnapping caused serious bodily injury.

Dylan Adams faces three counts of aggravated rape. Those charges read aggravated rape with a deadly weapon, aggravated rape with serious bodily injury and aggravated rape with one or more persons.

He is also charged with first-degree murder in perpetration of a kidnapping and rape.


Zach Adams and Jason Autry will also face the same charges.

It's unclear what brought about the new charges - whether it's new information or simply the fact that a prosecuting attorney has taken over the case.

Dylan Adams Charged With Kidnapping, Murder In Holly Bobo Case
May 20, 2015

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – John Dylan Adams, one of three suspects charged in connection with the Holly Bobo case, has now been indicted on charges of kidnapping and murder.

NewsChannel 5 has learned that Adams was indicted on additional charges after a special grand jury met Tuesday. He was already jailed on two counts of rape in the case.

According to Vince Higgins, the Communications Director for the Office of Shelby County District Attorney General, Dylan Adams, along with his older brother, Zach, and Jason Autry have all been indicted on first-degree murder in the perpetration of a felony, especially aggravated kidnapping, first-degree murder in the perpetration of a felony, to wit: aggravated rape and premeditated first degree murder.

According to agents with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, Adams was involved in the forcible rape of Bobo on April 13, 2011, the day she went missing from her family's home in Darden. He later pleaded not guilty to those charges.

Zach Adams was arrested last spring and charged with murder and kidnapping, along with Jason Autry. Both also pleaded not guilty.

8-count indictment handed down for 3 men in Holly Bobo case
Published May 20, 2015, Updated May 21, 2015

DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. (WKRN) – The special prosecutor in Holly Bobo murder case secured a new indictment charging all previously charged men with murder, rape and kidnapping.

The superseding indictment handed down by a Decatur County grand jury Tuesday combined the charges against Zachary Adams, his brother Dylan Adams, and Jason Autry in connection with the kidnapping and murder of nursing student Holly Bobo in April 2011.

The 8-count indictment charges all three men with three counts of first-degree murder, two counts of especially aggravated kidnapping, and three counts of aggravated rape.

According to the indictments, counts one and three of first degree murder are associated with the kidnapping of Bobo , and count two of murder is associated with the premeditated murder of Bobo.

Previously, Zachary Adams and Autry were indicted together for especially aggravated kidnapping and murder. Dylan Adams was previously indicted on two counts of aggravated rape.

The new indictment combines all of the above charges against all three men into one case.
Nashville Criminal Defense Attorney David Raybin, who is not associated with case, was shown the indictments, which are part of public record, for his legal expertise.

“It is not uncommon for prosecutors to want a superseding indictment where you obtain additional information on additional suspects or on an additional charge,” Raybin explained. “It puts everything in a single indictment and the old indictment goes away.”

The prosecutio’s case under the guidance of Decatur County District Attorney General Matt Stowe had a public setback when the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation pulled out of the investigation.

Stowe then recused himself, and Shelby County Prosecutor Jennifer Nichols was appointed to take over.

However, shortly after the appointment, attorneys for both Zachary and Dylan Adams filed motions to have her appointment reversed.

In April, Judge Creed McGinley ruled Nichols would stay on the case.
 ::snipping3::
“I think it’s an indication that the state has gotten its act together and that they have avoided the problems with the previous prosecutor that may have existed,” Raybin said. “Now they are on track.”

He continued, “I think they are moving along toward a trial in the case.”

Raybin also said it is likely defense attorneys will soon file motions to sever the cases of the men charged.

“Attorneys often do not want the jury to decide on both cases,” he said.

The family of Holly Bobo did not comment on the new charges when reached Thursday.

Prosecutor Nichols has not announced if she will seek the death penalty against the three men.

They are scheduled for an arraignment on June 3rd at 9 a.m. in Decatur County.

May 23, 2015


New court documents reveal a major unanswered question in the Holly Bobo murder investigation.

Channel 4 obtained the new indictments handed down Wednesday after Dylan Adams was charged with murder.

The indictments appear to indicate investigators may not know when Bobo died.

The paperwork states Dylan Adams, his brother Zach Adams and Jason Autry kidnapped, raped and murdered the nursing student sometime between the date she went missing in April 2011 and the date her skull was found more than three years later

New Development In Holly Bobo Case Could Fast-Track Trial
October 15, 2015

The evidence in the Holly Bobo case is so voluminous that the attorneys may need help to get through it all. A proposed plan would hire one person to review and organize it for all the defense teams.

A new development could help fast-track a trial for the three accused murderers and jumpstart prosecution of this high-profile case.

A key issue is the sheer amount of evidence in the case collected after the past four years.

"It's my understanding the state's evidence is extremely voluminous," said NewsChannel5 Legal Analyst, Nick Leonardo.

The sheer volume of it all may be the single largest barrier keeping this case from moving forward. Prosecutors have charged three men: Zack Adams, his brother Dylan and Jason Autry with the kidnapping and murder of Holly Bobo in 2011.

It's been more than a year since the first arrest. They wait behind bars, but still have no trial date.

"If you have 30-thousand pages of documents to review it takes some time," said Leonardo.

There's more than just documents. There's photographs and forensic test results on everything from a skull prosecutors say belongs to Holly Bobo to hair fibers found in Zack Adams' home.

Leonardo said it is also death penalty case, which means even more lawyers are on board reviewing the case.

It's an incredibly slow process, but a proposal could speed it all up. One person would be hired to review and organize the evidence for all the defense teams.

6:15 p.m. CST March 2, 2016

DECATURVILLE — Judge C. Creed McGinley set a target trial date in early 2017 for at least one of three defendants in the death of Holly Bobo.

McGinley said he expects to begin a trial on April 3, 2017, though it is currently unknown if the three men charged in Bobo's death — Zachary Adams, John Dylan Adams, and Jason Autry — will go to trial together, individually, or with John Dylan Adams separated from his brother and Autry.

"I don't know who I'm trying, but I'm trying someone on April 3," McGinley said in court.

Community remembers Holly Bobo 5 years after disappearance

DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. — Five years ago Wednesday, a nursing student from Decatur County went missing. Investigators said hunters found Holly Bobo’s remains more than three years later. The three men accused of killing Bobo now face the death penalty.

“It still seems not real,” Angie Britt, a friend of the Bobo family, said. “You know, you can’t imagine that five years ago today everything was OK.”

Pink and green ribbons line the court square in downtown Decaturville. “It’s just a reminder that we won’t ever forget what happened five years ago today,” Britt said.
 ::snipping3::
Don Franks, pastor of Corinth Baptist Church in Darden, said the family takes it one day at a time. “It’s a tough day,” Franks said. “It’s tough on the family and the whole community.”

People in Decatur County said Bobo’s disappearance is something that changed their community. “Nobody in this community was untouched,” Britt said.

Brothers Dylan and Zach Adams along with Jason Autry are charged with kidnapping, raping and killing Bobo. They are expected to go to trial in 2017.

“We’re going to wait patiently,” Franks said. “Whatever it takes, however long it takes, we’re in it for justice for our beloved Holly.”
 ::snipping3::
Judge Creed McGinley said in March he expects the three men charged with killing Bobo to go to trial April 3, 2017. The clerk’s office said the court is expecting a status update on June 1.

Holly Bobo case trials likely to leave Decatur Co.
Maranda Faris, The Jackson Sun 6:53 p.m. CDT August 17, 2016

DECATURVILLE — Judge Creed McGinley still expects to have a trial in the Holly Bobo murder case in April 2017, but who goes to trial then depends on the outcome of motions to suppress statements made by the three defendants.

At a scheduling hearing Wednesday morning in Decatur County, McGinley said he expects defense attorneys to file motions seeking to exclude statements that defendants Zachary Adams, Dylan Adams and Jason Autry made to investigators. The judge said the defendants may have separate trials but that won't be determined until motions are heard in court.

McGinley also said it is likely the case will be moved out of Decatur County closer to the trial date in April.
 ::snipping3::
Attorneys are scheduled to potentially return to court on Sept. 28, but that date could be reset, McGinley said. A three-day span for motions hearings is set for Nov. 15 through Nov. 17.

Defense attorney in Holly Bobo case suspended
Maranda Faris, The Jackson Sun 11:48 a.m. CST February 4, 2016

John Herbison, a Montgomery County attorney who has represented Jason Autry on charges related to Holly Bobo's death, has had his law license suspended for two years, according to the Board of Professional Responsibility.

Herbison was suspended Tuesday, according to the board's website.

Herbison will not be allowed to practice for 60 days, according to a release by the Board of Professional Responsibility. For the remainder of the suspension he will be able to practice but a monitor must observe his work.
 ::snipping3::
Autry's former attorney Fletcher Long lost his law license in September 2015.

It is currently unknown if Herbison's suspension will impact the Holly Bobo case.

Autry is also represented by James Simmons, an attorney in Hendersonville, in Sumner County.

Autry is charged with premeditated murder, and murder in the perpetration of aggravated kidnapping and aggravated rape in the death of Holly Bobo. Zachary and Dylan Adams are co-defendants in the case.

PARSONS, Tenn. (WKRN) – A judge decided on court dates Tuesday for the three men accused in the high-profile Holly Bobo case.

As it stands, the judge has not yet decided if suspects Zachary Adams and Dylan Adams will be tried together or separately. The men for now are slated to go to trial April 3.

The third suspect in the case, Jason Autry, will go to trial three months later on July 10.


Holly Bobo’s remains were found Sept. 2014.

 ::snipping3::

All three men are each charged with raping and killing the then 21-year-old nursing student in April 2011.

Bobo’s remains were found more than three years after her disappearance in 2014 by two farmers in Holladay, Tennessee, which is about 90 miles west of Nashville.

Holly Bobo Trial Will Be "Logistical Nightmare"
November 16, 2016

SAVANNAH, Tenn. - On Tuesday a judge made clear that the high profile trial of the three men accused of killing nursing student Holly Bobo will move forward in 2017, but the trial is likely to be an expensive, complicated process.

Bobo went missing from her home in Parson, Tennessee in 2011 - three men have been charged in her death, Zach Adams, his brother Dylan and Jason Autry.

The first trial for either Zach Adams or Dylan Adams is set to begin in April of next year, and on Tuesday a judge indicated a change of venue is likely on the horizon. The trial will more than likely be held in Savannah, Tennessee about 45 miles from Decaturville where all three men were originally charged.
 ::snipping3::
It will likely be the responsibility of Decatur County Sheriff's Officers to provide security for the Holly Bobo trial, Sheriff Byrd says it will create some logistical challenges.

"Wherever the case goes it will be Decatur County’s responsibility to foot the bill. It may cost the county thousands to prosecute this case," he said.

Securing the courthouse in Hardin County will likely mean bringing in metal detectors, Xray machines and K9's.
 ::snipping3::

The jury for the trial will likely be brought in from another county in Tennessee, although it's unclear where.

DECATURVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) – A judge decided Wednesday morning that the trial for Zachary Adams, one of the men accused in the high-profile Holly Bobo case, will not begin until July–while another suspect may not even have one.

Adams’ trial was initially scheduled to begin in April in Hardin County, Tennessee.

Judge Creed McGinley gave several reasons for moving the date, including it would have fallen over Easter and near the anniversary of Bobo’s disappearance.
 
Despite the delay, the process for selection will begin next week and 550 summons have been sent to potential jurors in Hardin County.
 ::snipping3::

News 2 also learned Jason Autry, who faces the same charges, will probably not go to trial.

During court Wednesday, the judge didn’t elaborate on why. However, News 2 obtained a new motion filed by Zach Adams’ attorney that lays out the details.

According to the filing, Autry confessed on Jan. 20 this year to taking part in the kidnapping, rape, and murder of Bobo. Autry reportedly gave a statement to the state of Tennessee detailing his involvement.

Holly Bobo murder trial: Jury selection begins after months of delays
Published April 06, 2017


On an April morning nearly six years ago, nursing student Holly Bobo walked out of her parent's rural Tennessee home on her way to school when she was abducted in a case that sparked the largest manhunt in state history.

The 20-year-old's partial remains were found in 2014, and three men were charged with her kidnapping, rape and murder.

On Wednesday, jury selection began in the trial of Zach Adams, 32, the first suspect to be tried in the case. Police say he raped Bobo and videotaped it before she was killed.

Adams' trial was originally scheduled to begin this week but was delayed until July 10 by Judge Creed McGinley. Final jury selection will be determined on July 6, four days before his trial is set to begin.

Holly Bobo trial delayed again
POSTED 9:40 AM, JULY 6, 2017, BY ERYN TAYLOR AND STACY JACOBSON, UPDATED AT 12:43PM, JULY 6, 2017
 
HARDIN COUNTY, Tenn. — The trial against Holly Bobo’s accused killer has been delayed again.

On Thursday, a Hardin County judge reviewed a motion asking for a continuance based on the addition of a gun as new evidence.

The weapon was reportedly discovered by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation in an underwater or muddy area over Memorial Day weekend.

Both sides agreed the gun is important evidence that needs to be included.

Attorneys for Zachary Adams told the judge their expert could have the weapon examined within 30 days.

With that in mind, the judge agreed to the delay. He set the trial for September 11.

The 70 people brought in as potential jurors were not told why the trial was delayed and the judge ordered them not to read or watch any media coverage of the proceedings.

When it does get underway, the judge said the trial will take no longer than two weeks.

Jury selection will continue on September 9 with the trial starting two days later.

Bobo’s family left the courthouse quickly after the hearing ended.

“it’s been over six years. Every minute, every hour has been painful. It’s hard but it’s necessary,” said special prosecutor Paul Hagerman from Shelby County. “This is something they want behind them. But they want things to happen right.”

 ::snipping3::

Two other men — John Dylan Adams and Jason Autry– were also charged with the woman’s murder.

5 witnesses granted immunity in Holly Bobo murder trial
by: Kristin Leigh Updated: Jul 6, 2017 - 6:46 PM

Five people have been granted either federal or state immunity to testify in the murder trial of Zachary Adams, one of three men accused of raping and killing 19-year-old Holly Bobo after she disappeared in 2011.

Victor Dinsmore, Michael Alexander, Jason Kilzer, Shayne Austin, and Jason Wayne Autry were all granted immunity, according to court records filed in Hardin County.

Adams’ trial was moved from Decatur County to Hardin County due to the high-profile nature of the case.

The names were listed in notices of immunity filed in Hardin County in June which FOX13 reviewed Thursday.

Autry is Adams’ accomplice according to investigators. They’re two of three men charged with murder for their suspected roles in Bobo’s death. Zachary Adams’ brother, Dylan Adams, is the third suspect

It's been a long, long time, lots of delays.  Holly's case seemed to be stalled for a long time.  I think there were questions about the investigation and then look at how many have been granted immunity.  There are some folks that knew something and didn't come forward.  It's like an onion that's got to be peeled back, layer by layer.  I shudder to think about what misery and horror Holly endured.   ::MonkeyNoNo:: ::MonkeyTears::

Credibility Of Key Witness In Holly Bobo Murder Trial Questioned
Posted: 5:17 PM, Jul 13, 2017

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Concern and questions have been raised about just how trustworthy a co-defendant in the Holly Bob murder trial will be.

Even though Jason Autry cut a deal to testify against Zach Adams, tipped prosecutors to the location of the alleged murder weapon, experts said it won't be hard to prove Autry is a liar.

Jason Autry did an exclusive interview with Newschannel 5 from his cell at Riverbend Maximum Security Prison three years ago, but it's a safe bet what he said then and what he's now telling prosecutors will be different.
 ::snipping3::
"His testimony is extremely important,' said Newschannel5 legal analyst Nick Leonardo who believed Autry is the one who only last month tipped prosecutors to the location of the alleged murder weapon.

Posted 4:59 pm, July 19, 2017

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — One of the men granted immunity in the Holly Bobo murder case has written a letter to a Nashville news station saying he was not involved in the case.

In a letter to WSMV, inmate Michael Lee Alexander wrote he never asked for immunity and claimed he was “not involved before, during or after in the Holly Bobo case.”

Attorney David Raybin explained to WSMV this admission makes Alexander useless as a witness in the case.

Raybin believes Alexander wrote the letter wants to protect himself by not being “perceived as a snitch.” Alexander wrote in his letter, “I feel like I am being used and my life put in danger.”

Attorneys met with potential jurors Thursday in Hardin County, asking some to be prepared to return the Saturday before Adams' trial is scheduled to begin, and be ready to hear the case on September 11.
 ::snipping3::

Prosecutors have also filed a notice to the defense attorneys that they have offered federal immunity to Jason Autry, a co-defendant in the case, in exchange for his testimony against Zach Adams. Court documents say that prosecutors could work with Autry's attorneys to have reduced charges if he testifies honestly.

Defense attorneys for Zach Adams have also requested that the trial be moved out of Hardin County due to "massive publicity."

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) - A new name has come up in the case of murdered nursing student Holly Bobo: sex offender Terry Britt

His name came up in court for the first time last week, but it’s not the first time we’ve heard it.

The mother of two of the murder suspects, Cindy Adams, said his name will come up when this long-awaited trial finally gets underway.
 ::snipping3::
Britt’s wife told News 4 Britt was with her the entire day that Bobo vanished. She was adamant Britt had nothing to do with her kidnapping rape or murder.

The TBI would not say whether they ever formally cleared Britt.

Prosecutors said they aren’t allowed to talk about potential witnesses or testimony before trial.

Britt is currently in the Northwest Correctional Complex serving time for aggravated kidnapping and attempted rape convictions. He’s scheduled to get out of prison in November of 2018.

Holly Bobo: No blood evidence found on corroded gun
Published 3:29 p.m. CT Aug. 18, 2017 | Updated 4:04 p.m. CT Aug. 18, 2017

SAVANNAH — No blood was found on the gun prosecutors have called a "critical piece of evidence" and believed to be the weapon used to kill 20-year-old Holly Bobo in 2011.

Court documents say Jennifer Nichols, the lead prosecutor in the case, told defense attorneys that the gun was found "near John Holladay Road in Decatur County, Tennessee." Nichols provided a photo of an "extremely rusted revolver," court documents say.

That revolver, an Arminus .32-caliber, was tested by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation on May 26, according to a Memphis Crime Lab report filed in Hardin County Circuit Court. The report says the revolver had to be cleaned because it was not operational when the TBI lab received the gun for testing.

The report says the gun does not match any investigations, and no blood was found on the gun.
 ::snipping3::
Another motion filed by defense attorneys for Zachary Adams has requested that the judge not allow skeletal remains to be presented as evidence during the September trial because photos and witness testimony is expected to describe the condition of the remains. Prosecutors responded to the motion, saying in court documents that "a victim's bones are not so inherently 'horrific' as to require their exclusion from trial."

A trial for Zach Adams is scheduled to start with final jury selection on Sept. 9, and opening statements at 9 a.m. Sept. 11. Adams is charged with first-degree murder, especially aggravated kidnapping and aggravated rape in Bobo's death.

Published 1:24 p.m. CT Aug. 23, 2017 | Updated 2:16 p.m. CT Aug. 23, 2017

SAVANNAH — Attorneys for Zach Adams have filed documents that identify three witnesses they expect to call during Adams' trial in September.

One of those witnesses is expected to testify to Adams' alibi.

Adams is facing charges of first-degree murder, aggravated kidnapping, and aggravated rape in the death and abduction of 20-year-old nursing student Holly Bobo in April 2011.

The witness, identified as Rebecca Earp, has been subpoenaed to testify, court documents say.

The documents say defense attorneys will file a notice of any additional witnesses if they are identified.

Two other witnesses identified in court documents are listed as experts in handwriting and cell phones. Court documents say Jon Reeves, of JDR Telecom Solutions in Virginia, will testify to the locations of cell phones on April 13, 2011, the day Bobo was reported missing.

Another witness, Larry Miller, is expected to testify to "the authenticity of handwriting in the event a witness denies that he/she wrote a document." Miller works with the department of criminal justice at East Tennessee State University.

Reeves and Miller are identified as expert witnesses for the defense. Both notices were filed Wednesday morning.

Been awhile since I have checked in on this case and I can honestly say I am astonished that it still has not started.  How awful for her family.  Prayers that a resolution to this happens soon.

I sure hope so.  It has been so so long since this happened to Holly.  I cannot begin to imagine what she went through at the hands of these scumbags.  It is time they all pay for this senseless act.

New Developments Emerge Regarding Evidence In Holly Bobo Murder Case
By: Nick Beres

Updated: 6:40 PM, Sep 4, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn. - There's nothing to link the gun to the murder of Holly Bobo. That's just part of what we've learned about evidence in the high-profile murder case.

Now indications have shown that any last second plea talks have stalled, and, barring any new bizarre twist, the case will finally go to trial in one week.

There are six plus years of evidence, interviews, and paperwork -- all collected by the TBI investigating the murder of Holly Bobo -- has been sifted through by attorneys from both sides.

The question has remained: Does any of it convict Zach Adams?
 ::snipping3::
While the evidence to convict may be unclear, the defense does worry about the jury.

In fact, they've asked for another change in venue believing that the current jury pool out of Hardin County already believes Adams is guilty.

There will be one final motions hearing on Friday. If there are no further delays, jury selection will begin Saturday with the trial beginning on Monday.

NewsChannel 5 will be providing gavel to gavel coverage live on NewsChannel 5 Plus and streaming here online.

Holly Bobo case: Experts to testify on remains, gun
Published 5:25 p.m. CT Sept. 5, 2017 | Updated 5:37 p.m. CT Sept. 5, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — Prosecutors in the Holly Bobo case have filed a notice that they have two experts scheduled to testify about skeletal remains and a revolver connected to the case.

The experts — Hugh Berryman of Middle Tennessee State University and Dana Medlin of EAG Laboratories in Omaha, Nebraska — are expected to testify in Zachary Adams' trial, which is scheduled to begin Saturday with jury selection and opening statements on Monday.

Berryman is the director at the Forensic Institute for Research and Education and an expert in forensic anthropology. Court documents say he is expected to testify about the remains that were identified as Bobo's. Those skeletal remains include a skull which was found in Decatur County in September 2014.

Medlin, a metallurgical engineer, is expected to testify on the analysis of an Arminius .32-caliber revolver. The revolver was found in May, and prosecutors have called the gun "a critical piece of evidence" in the trial.

MEMPHIS, TN (WMC) - The judge in the Holly Bobo murder trial was cited for bringing a gun to Memphis International Airport, according to court documents.

Hardin County Circuit Court Judge Charles Creed McGinley, 66, was issued two misdemeanor citations on Sunday, Aug. 27.

Holly Bobo murder trial: Prosecutors describe chilling details in death of Tennessee nursing student
By Cristina Corbin     Published September 11, 2017 

A man who lived in a "dark, dark world" of methamphetamine and morphine abducted a Tennessee nursing student from her rural home, then drugged, raped and shot her before dumping her body and bragging about it to friends, prosecutors said Monday.

The charges were laid out in Savannah, Tenn., during opening statements in the trial of 33-year-old Zachary Adams, who is accused of killing Holly Bobo in April 2011.

Adams has pleaded not guilty to kidnapping, raping and murdering Bobo, who was 20 when she disappeared from her home in the rural town of Parsons on April 13, 2011. Her remains turned up in nearby woods in September 2014. If convicted, Adams faces the death penalty.

Adams' defense attorney, meanwhile, said her client is not guilty. She said in her opening statement that investigators found no hair, fingerprints or DNA belonging to Bobo in a search of Adams' home before he was charged in 2014.

In their opening argument, prosecutors described chilling details: Adams, they said, asked his friend, Jason Autry, to help him dispose of Bobo's body after he had raped her. Thinking she was already dead, Adams told Autry he was going to "gut" Bobo's body so she would not float to the surface once they dumped her into the Tennessee River, according to the prosecution

Bobo allegedly was wrapped in a blanket inside the vehicle -- but apparently she was still alive. She then made a noise, prompting Adams to shoot her in the head, prosecutors claimed.

"Jason sees a blanket in the bed of Zach's truck. There’s a body in the blanket," assistant Shelby County District Attorney Paul Hagerman said in opening statements.

Hagerman told jurors that evidence and testimony will show Adams told Autry that he, Shayne Austin, and John Dylan Adams -- the defendant's brother -- had kidnapped and raped Holly. Austin was found dead of an apparent suicide in 2015.

Sobbing, Holly Bobo's mom collapses during first day of murder trial

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — A man who lived in the "dark, dark world" of methamphetamine and morphine addiction abducted Tennessee nursing student Holly Bobo from her rural home in 2011, then drugged, raped and shot her before discarding her body and bragging about it, a prosecutor said Monday.

Zachary Adams, 33, has pleaded not guilty to kidnapping, raping and killing Bobo, who was 20 when she disappeared from her home in Parsons, Tennessee, on April 13, 2011. Her remains were found 3 ½ years later near her home in Decatur County, located about 100 miles southwest of Nashville.

A judge briefly cleared the courtroom during the first day of Adams' trial Monday, after Bobo's mother, Karen, collapsed to the floor sobbing. Karen Bobo and her husband, Dana, were among the first people called to testify Monday, reports CBS affiliate WREG.

Holly Bobo murder trial: Officials describe finding 'suspicious' mattress, scratches on alleged killer
By Cristina Corbin     Published September 12, 2017 

A man accused of kidnapping, raping and killing a Tennessee nursing student had "visible scratches" and a suspicious mattress outside his home in the days following Holly Bobo's disappearance, law enforcement officials testified Tuesday.

Jurors were also shown photos of Bobo's blood found inside the carport of her family's rural Tennessee home on the second day of testimony in the trial of 33-year-old Zachary Adams, who is accused of killing Bobo in April 2011.
 ::snipping3::
On Tuesday, Tennessee Highway Patrol trooper Warren Rainey recounted how he was first to question Adams about two weeks after Bobo disappeared. Adams had a criminal record that included drug possession and assault and he lived in an area near where a credit card receipt with Bobo's signature was found, Rainey said.

Rainey told jurors that Adams was "shaking" when he showed up unannounced at his home north of Parsons. The officer also said he discovered a mattress that appeared to be in good condition resting against the side of the house.

"When I saw the mattress it gave me the gut feeling of something is not right," Rainey told jurors inside the Hardin County Courthouse in Savannah, Tenn.

"I could tell he was visibly shaken. He was scared ... he was shaking," Rainey said of Adams.

An FBI agent also testified about fresh scratches found on Adams' arm after Bobo's disappearance. The agent described them as "linear scratches" on the inner arm -- prompting him to take photographs of the wounds, which were shown to jurors.

Earlier Tuesday, the court viewed photos of bloodstains found near Holly's Ford Mustang in the family’s garage on the day she disappeared. Special Agent Lawrence James, a forensic scientist with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, said DNA analysis showed that the 50 to 60 blood drops found on the floor of the carport belonged to Holly and indicated "there was some sort of struggle."

Zach Adams' ex-girlfriend testifies in Holly Bobo murder trial
Posted: Sep 12, 2017 8:07 AM CDT
Updated: Sep 12, 2017 6:15 PM CDT

 ::snipping3::
Adams’ former girlfriend Rebecca Earp testified about their rocky relationship. The couple had been living together but were in the process of breaking up.

Earp said the day after Bobo went missing, Adams made a comment while watching TV news with Shayne Austin.

“Zach and Shayne were watching the news. Zach made the comment, ‘They’ll never be able to find her,’” Earp said.

Earp also said Adams threatened to tie her up like Bobo several months after her disappearance.

“He said he would tie me up just like Holly Bobo and nobody would ever see me again,” Earp said.

On cross-examination, the defense established that both Earp and Adams were doing meth at the time and Earp had changed her story a number of times.

Earlier in the day, prosecutors began putting their expert witnesses on the stand.

The court heard from police about how they tried to track Bobo through her cellphone from the very first day she disappeared.

Bobo's phone reportedly pinged near Adams' home on Adams Road.

Man who found Holly Bobo's remains testifies in day 3 of trial

Updated: Sep 13, 2017 3:59 PM CDT
 ::snipping3::
On Wednesday morning, a series of witnesses testified about items they found that related to Bobo’s disappearance.

Some were her personal items, but most importantly, the court heard testimony about how her remains were found. The jury heard testimony from the man who discovered Bobo's skull.

Larry Stone testified that in 2014 he was looking for ginseng, a root, when he saw something that caught his attention -- a bucket turned upside down in the woods. He turned it over and discovered it was a skull. He yelled to his cousin.

"I said, I found remains. Get up here now. I started bawling, please tell me it's not real. I said, ‘I think I know who his could be.’ I said, ‘I think it’s Holly,’" Stone said.

Stone's discovery that day was a crucial find. Bobo's remains were never found in the three years after her disappearance.

Laura Hodge with the TBI testified about bones and teeth found scattered in a ditch off County Corner Road in Holladay, near a cell phone tower
. She described it as a meticulous excavation.

Holly Bobo trial: TBI reveals additional remains found in woods, along with wallet and ID
Published 7:30 p.m. CT Sept. 12, 2017 | Updated 2:45 p.m. CT Sept. 13, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — Holly Bobo’s driver’s license was still in her wallet three years after her disappearance, when her skull, jaw and teeth were found in the woods off County Corner Road.

Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Special Agent Laura Hodge identified the wallet, which had tooth marks from animals, and said it had apparently been dragged by animals through the woods to a place away from Holly’s remains and what was left of the black flip flops her mother said she would have been wearing on the morning of April 13, 2011.

Hodge’s testimony is the first time the TBI has confirmed identifiers of Holly Bobo had been found in September 2014.

TBI agents went “one scoop at a time,” shoveling and sifting through dirt in early September 2014.

Through that process, forensic scientists found teeth and a set of silver hoop earrings.

Holly Bobo, who had been reported missing three years earlier, was identified by dental records after her skull was found by a ginseng hunter digging in the woods near County Corner Road.

Wednesday is the first time the TBI has indicated that additional remains were found in those woods near Benton County after Bobo’s skull was identified

Autry testifies he helped Adams dispose of Holly Bobo's body
Published:Thursday, September 14th 2017, 6:09 am CDT
Updated:Thursday, September 14th 2017, 12:09 pm CDT

DECATUR COUNTY, TN (WMC) - CLICK HERE to watch the trial as it unfolds.

Jason Autry was the first testimony Thursday in the murder trial of Holly Bobo

Autry was friends with Zach Adams, Dylan Adams, and Shayne Austin; he is also charged in the murder of Holly Bobo. Autry is one of a handful of people granted partial immunity for information in the case.
 ::snipping3::
Autry said he bought a pill from Austin, broke it in half, and ingested the drug. He then walked back to where Zach was standing.

Autry said Zach told him he needed help hiding a body. Autry assumed the body belonged to someone named JoJo they had previously talked about killing.

Autry said Zach told him, "No, that's Holly Bobo."

Autry said he was clueless and did not know who Bobo was, and did not care about the body in the back of the truck. Autry said Holly was wrapped in a blanket in the back of the truck.

Autry said he agreed to help bury the body, as long as he could move his car first.

Autry said Dylan never came out of the trailer; Austin was putting things into the burn barrel. He did not know what the items were, but the smell was like, "a meth lab burning."

Autry said he then backed his car to Yellowsprings Church and got into the truck with Adams.

As they got down the road, Autry asked Adams how they would bury the body without any shovels or pick-axes.

Autry, thinking of a plan, suggested taking her intestines out and putting her into water where turtles could eat the body.

He said the two drove to an area he had been to before on Birdsong Road, near a boat dock. They backed up to a pile of rip rap, about 20-30 feet from an I-40 bridge.

Autry confirmed this location through a series of pictures shown to him by the prosecution.

He said the two got out and grabbed Bobo's body when he noticed a small amount of blood on the truck and on the blanket.

Autry said he never looked inside or unwrapped the blanket. He said the two placed the body on top of the rip rap.

Autry said he was standing over the body when he noticed her legs moving and heard a sound of distress.

He told Adams, "This [expletive] is still alive."

At that time, he said Adams reached into the floorboard of the truck and grabbed a pistol.

"I said, 'whoa,'" Autry said, because he wanted to check the area. He walked away to check and make sure the area was clear.

He said he told Adams the area was clear, and then he heard a gun go off.

"It sounded like to me, that it shot three or four times...it echoed under the bridge."

Autry said there was just one shot, but he heard it echo several times and saw birds fly away.

"I heard a boat," Autry said. "And I took off running."

Autry feared the two had been seen or heard. Autry said the two grabbed the body again and loaded it back into the truck before racing off.

Jason Autry testifies all day, explains how Zach Adams killed Holly Bobo

 ::snipping3::
After a short recess, Zach Adams' defense team began cross-examining Autry.

The defense went over Autry's drug habits, having him detail how he used drugs and how much he used. Autry admitted the drugs, which he frequently and heavily used, distorted his mindset and his memory.

The defense then walked Autry through his story again, probing him for errors and testing his memory of the events.

For more than two hours, and through multiple short recess, the defense team made Autry map out his route on the day he said Adams killed Holly Bobo.

After another break, defense attorney Jennifer Thompson asked if it was Judge C. Creed McGinley's intention to continue the trial Thursday night until she was finished questioning Autry. Judge McGinley said that was his intention.

Thompson then said she had a lot more questions and pointed out that it was very hot the courtroom. She said continuing late into the night would cause the jury to harbor ill-will toward her and her client.

"[Then] ask legitimate cross-examined questions," the judge responded. He pointed out that Thompson spent hours getting Autry to write on maps to no apparent purpose.

Thompson resumed cross-examination of Autry. She said he helped Adams kill Holly Bobo. Autry said that was not true. He said he did not stop Adams, and in fact he went to make sure the coast was clear, but he did not kill her. He also said he has remorse for the role he played in her death and hiding evidence that could've helped solve the case earlier.

Thompson brought up allegations that Autry may be lying during his testimony to lessen his prison sentence. She said Autry could have his federal sentence reduced if his testimony helps the state convict Adams. The two then got into a dispute over Autry's federal immunity agreement. Autry said he knew he had an agreement, but he had never seen it. Thompson then showed Autry the immunity form, which had his signature on it.

Thompson then asked Autry if she was correct in summarizing his intentions today by saying he wanted the jury to understand that he's facing a death penalty, and he came in here telling the complete truth but he only hopes for leniency and has no other expectation for what's going to happen.

"I've come in here and admitted my wrongs, admitted where I've lied, testified to the truth, and I hope for leniency. That is correct," Autry responded.

The fifth day of the trial is slated to begin Friday morning at 9. Judge McGinley has already stated that he expects the trial to last into and possibly past Saturday. If the trial continues Saturday, testimony will happen in the morning.

Holly Bobo trial: TBI Agent says agency made terrible mistake
Published 8:30 p.m. CT Sept. 14, 2017 | Updated 2:28 p.m. CT Sept. 15, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Special Agent Brent Booth testified Friday that his agency realized officials had made a terrible mistake in the early days of the Holly Bobo investigation.

"We made mistakes that I will take with me for the rest of my life," Booth said and wiped tears from his eyes. "But we got the right person."

Booth said that in the deluge of tips and other information that was being turned in following Bobo’s disappearance, agents failed to read memos thoroughly, even when details of the investigation including tips and items found pointed to the current defendants.

“The left hand didn’t know what the right hand was doing,” Booth said. “We didn’t realize what was there. Their alibis weren’t checked out.”

Booth was referring to the alibis of Zach Adams, Jason Autry and Shayne Austin, whose home was nearby both cell phone pings from Bobo’s phone and items of hers found after she went missing.

More: Why has it taken so long for the Holly Bobo murder trial to begin?

Booth said early on agents prized tips that she was alive and being held captive, over other tips that pointed to the men.

Booth said he had been told that the alibis had been checked out, but a phone call in January 2014 "refocused the investigation."

"The focus on the investigation changed to Zach Adams, Jason Autry, Shayne Austin and Dylan Adams," Booth said.

Eight months later, Holly Bobo's remains were found three miles from Shayne Austin's home, and maybe five miles from Zach Adams' residence.

Prosecutor Paul Hagerman asked Booth if he knew on Sept. 7, 2014 that the skull was Holly Bobo.

"I knew. Scientifically, no. But it had to be," he said.

Booth also testified that several other items of Bobo’s were found around Austin’s home, where Autry testified Thursday she had been taken after she was kidnapped.

State prosecutors on Friday called witnesses to the stand to corroborate roughly seven hours of  Jason Autry's testimony the day before.

Witnesses in the morning included a satellite dish installation worker, a neighbor, Autry’s former girlfriend, a woman who Autry asked to enter her property and the man to whom Autry told prosecutors he and Shayne Austin traded the gun used in Holly's death.

TBI agent admits mistakes made during Holly Bobo investigation
Posted: Sep 15, 2017 12:04 PM CDT
Updated: Sep 15, 2017 4:12 PM CDT
 ::snipping3::
For the first time in the case, the public also learned details about the alleged murder weapon.

Prosecutors only discovered the mysterious gun just a few months ago. It took investigators six years to find it.

Authorities found the gun with help from a man named Victor Dinsmore, who took the stand in the trial for Zach Adams on Friday morning. He said the weapon ended up in his hands just two days after Bobo vanished.

Dinsmore testified that he knew Zach Adams, Jason Autry and Shayne Austin back in 2011. He said he used to sell them morphine.

Two days after Bobo disappeared, Dinsmore said he gave Austin 12 morphine pills in exchange for a gun.

Dinsmore, who is not legally allowed to have a gun, testified that he gave his gun to his wife because he heard about what happened to Bobo.

He later called his wife and told her to get rid of it.

"Because I was worried it had a body on it, meaning I was worried it had been used to kill somebody," he said.

Dinsmore has a federal deal granting him immunity regarding any gun charges. He is a convicted rapist and a self-proclaimed former drug addict.

What remains unclear is why it took six years for investigators to find this gun.

Dinsmore told the jury he said to investigators that he knew the whereabouts of the gun used to kill Bobo long before her body had been found and before anyone knew she had been shot.

Only recently did the TBI fly Dinsmore back to Tennessee. They went to the location he described and eventually found the gun.

The defense questioned Dinsmore, trying to poke holes in his story.

Zach Adams' attorney has pointed out his past drug use and insinuated that the TBI coaxed Dinsmore into changing his story.

The defense also claims it was Dinsmore who got rid of the gun and not his wife.

During interviews with police, Dinsmore implicated another man for the disposal of Bobo's body.

Michael Alexander has an immunity deal as well and may be called to testify.

Testimony wrapped up around 3:30 p.m. on Friday. The trial will resume Saturday at 9 a.m

TBI agent testifies phones of Bobo, Adams, Autry in same general location day she was taken
Published:Saturday, September 16th 2017, 8:13 am CDT
Updated:Saturday, September 16th 2017, 11:43 am CDT

DECATUR COUNTY, TN (WMC) - Day six of the Holly Bobo murder trial was the shortest yet, lasting around two hours.

Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Michael Frezzell testified for just over an hour, taking up the majority of the time Saturday, about the location of Holly Bobo's phone, Zach Adams' phone, and Jason Autry's phone on the morning of Holly's disappearance. Frezzell used cell phone towers pings from incoming and outgoing calls and messages on the phones to pinpoint their locations.

Candace Wood, who went on a double date with Holly and her boyfriend just days before she was taken, testified about seeing a man, whom she later identified as Shayne Austin, staring at them while on the date.

The first witnessed called to testify was Debbie Dorris.

Dorris cleans for a living, and she testified that saw Jason Autry and Shayne Austin arguing while she was cleaning.

Michael Frizzell took the stand after Dorris.

Frizzell is an assistant special agent with TBI, and he prepared a report containing phone records, including records from Zach Adams, Jason Autry, and Holly Bobo.

Frizzell testified that during and shortly after the time Holly was taken, phone records indicate that her phone had incoming calls and messages but nothing outgoing. Phone records indicate that just after 8:15 a.m. on the day Holly was taken, her phone began moving further away from her home, according to Frizzell's testimony.

Zach Adams and Jason Autry exchanged phone calls and text messages the morning Holly was taken, phone records show.

Phone records also show Zach Adams' phone and Holly Bobo's phone were in the same general area on the morning of Holly's disappearance.

At 8:55 a.m. that same day, Holly Bobo's phone, Zach Adams' phone, and Jason Autry's phone all pinged off the same tower.

After the prosecution was finished with their questions, the court took a 15-minute recess before the defense began.

The defense decided not to cross-examine Frezzell

Testimony continues in week 2 of Holly Bobo murder trial
September 18, 2017

HARDIN COUNTY, Tenn. — What could be the beginning of the last week of the trial of Zach Adams began Monday morning in Hardin County.

The trial got off to an early start, beginning at 8:30 Monday morning rather than the usual 9 a.m. start.

A dispatcher for the Decatur County 911 system testified about emergency calls. The jury heard playback of a 911 call between a dispatcher and Dick Adams, Zach Adams’ grandfather.

The judge called a recess shortly to allow defense attorneys a chance to prepare for the testimony of Terry Britt, who is serving time for kidnapping and attempted rape.

Britt was once a suspect in Bobo’s death. He was never charged in connection with the case.

The state then called Anthony Phoenix to the Stand. His connection to the suspect is that he used to do drugs with Zach Adams.

Phoenix talked about a car ride with Adams in which Adams said “I couldn’t have picked a prettier [expletive],” and that “It was fun.” Phoenix said Adams did not mention Bobo’s name in the conversation.

Next on the stand was Jamie Darnell, who described an incident in which he said Zach Adams fired a gun near Darnell’s girlfriend’s head.

Holly Bobo Trial: State rests its case after suspect's former jailmates take the stand
Monday, September 18th 2017

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WZTV) — Click here to watch live.

The state rested its case in the Holly Bobo trial after a day filled with testimony from suspect Zach Adams' former jailmates.

Adams is accused of kidnapping, raping and killing Bobo in Decatur County. Her remains were found three years after her disappearance. If convicted, Adams faces the death penalty.

The state called 44 witnesses to the stand during the first seven days of the trial.
 ::snipping3::
Carl Stateler

Former Parsons resident Carl Stateler testified Monday that he once heard Zach Adams tell a bartender “I’ll kill you like I did Holly Bobo.”

Stateler knew Adams and others during the time of Bobo’s disappearance and murder. The summer after she disappeared, Stateler said he was riding around with Adams when Adams allegedly said, “I let Shayne hit it.”

On two other occasions that summer, Stateler testified to hearing Adams tell a bartender “I’ll kill you like I did Holly Bobo” and “I did it.” During cross examination, the defense said Stateler previously reported to authorities one of the quotes was “I’ll do you like I did Holly Bobo.”

Corey Rivers

Corey Rivers, Zach Adam’s former next door cellmate, testified that Adams told him about an alleged video regarding the murder case.

Rivers testified as he was getting ready to be let out or Williamson County Jail, Adams told him he had something he wanted to show Rivers. Adams allegedly said it was “right under the nose of people looking into it.”

When talking about why he was incarcerated, Rivers said Adams told him the story about Holly Bobo. Adams allegedly said he and his friends were drinking when they took a girl into the woods and was “there for the worst of it.”

Adams also saw Rivers frequently reading his bible, and Rivers said Adams had asked him if he thought God could forgive him.

During cross examination, the defense brought up the fact that Rivers is a registered sex offender. Rivers testified that it happened when he was 17 and the other person was 16.

Shawn Cooper

Shawn Cooper, who is currently jailed on a probation violation, testified that Zach Adams told him to give a message to his brother Dylan to keep quiet about the case.

Cooper said Adams questioned him if Cooper had contact with any federal inmates and to tell his brother to keep his mouth shut or I will put him in a hole beside her."

Do I have this correct?  She was abducted in the morning, in her carport, and by mid day that same day, was when Autry says they took her out to the bridge/ river? And according to Autry, that is when Zach shot her?

All in a matter of 4-5 hours?

Jason Autry testifies all day, explains how Zach Adams killed Holly Bobo
Published:Thursday, September 14th 2017, 6:09 am CDT
Updated:Friday, September 15th 2017, 8:42 am CDT
 ::snipping3::
On April 12, 2013, Autry said he stayed the night at his girlfriend's house. He got up around 6:30 in the morning, drank coffee, and got in his girlfriend's car to be dropped off to his car, a PT Cruiser.

Autry said he got in his car and drove to a refuge to look at wildlife and 'kill time' before calling to buy drugs.

Autry said he was addicted to morphine, meth, and hydrocodone at the time. His search for drugs led him to make calls to Shayne Austin and Zach Adams. He eventually got in touch with Zach Adams around 8:40-8:50 a.m.

Adams initially said he was busy. Autry said Adams called him back a little later; he told him he needed his help at Austin's house, so Autry went there. Autry said he assumed Adams needed help with a batch of meth. 20-30 minutes later, he arrived.

Autry said he noticed a few things when he arrived: a fire burning in a burn barrel, Dylan in the doorway shirtless, and Zach in the yard with a firearm holstered on his side. He said Zach was walking around in the yard telling them to hurry and get out of the area.

Autry said he bought a pill from Austin, broke it in half, and ingested the drug. He then walked back to where Zach was standing.

Autry said Zach told him he needed help hiding a body. Autry assumed the body belonged to someone named JoJo they had previously talked about killing.

Autry said Zach told him, "No, that's Holly Bobo."

Autry said he was clueless and did not know who Bobo was, and did not care about the body in the back of the truck. Autry said Holly was wrapped in a blanket in the back of the truck.

Autry said he agreed to help bury the body, as long as he could move his car first.

Autry said Dylan never came out of the trailer; Austin was putting things into the burn barrel. He did not know what the items were, but the smell was like, "a meth lab burning."

Autry said he then backed his car to Yellowsprings Church and got into the truck with Adams

As they got down the road, Autry asked Adams how they would bury the body without any shovels or pickaxes.

Autry, thinking of a plan, suggested taking her intestines out and putting her into water where turtles could eat the body.

He said the two drove to an area he had been to before on Birdsong Road, near a boat dock. They backed up to a pile of rip rap, about 20-30 feet from an I-40 bridge.

Autry confirmed this location through a series of pictures shown to him by the prosecution.

He said the two got out and grabbed Bobo's body when he noticed a small amount of blood on the truck and on the blanket.

Autry said he never looked inside or unwrapped the blanket. He said the two placed the body on top of the rip rap.

Autry said he was standing over the body when he noticed her legs moving and heard a sound of distress.

He told Adams, "This [expletive] is still alive."

At that time, he said Adams reached into the floorboard of the truck and grabbed a pistol.

"I said, 'whoa,'" Autry said, because he wanted to check the area. He walked away to check and make sure the area was clear.

He said he told Adams the area was clear, and then he heard a gun go off.

Watch: Holly Bobo murder trial - Day 8
by: Kristin Leigh, Katie Rufener, Leah Beth Bolton Updated: Sep 19, 2017 - 12:27 PM

Day 8: What's happened so far

Terry Dicus took the stand for the defense. He is a former TBI agent and used to be a lead investigator on the case. He was off the case by 2013, however.

Brent Booth with the TBI previously testified the TBI made a "huge mistake" and did not properly check the alibis of Zach Adams, Dylan Adams, Jason Autry, and Shayne Austin. Booth said he was told by Dicus that the alibis were checked. It was discovered in early 2014 that the alibis did not line up.

Dicus testified that he was trained to assume only one person was involved in a crime if the motive was sexual assault. The prosecution argued that he ignored Adams, Autry, and the others, because of that and focused his investigation instead onto convicted rapist, Terry Britt.

Britt provided an albi for the day Holly Bobo went missing, saying he was with his wife all morning, and even had a receipt for a store where they went and bought a bathtub.

Dicus insisted he does not believe Britt's alibi. He also called a Autry's testimony that Zach Adams  came to the Bobo house that morning to teach Clint Bobo (Holly's brother) how to cook meth, "ridiculous."

Court broke for a lunch recess around 12:05. Cross-examination of Terry Dicus will resume at 1:05.

Day 7: What happened
 ::snipping3::
The state officially rested their case around 3 p.m.

The defense called their first witness, Rita Austin. Austin is Shayne Austin's mother. Shayne Austin committed suicide in 2015. He was a person of interest in the case. Austin testified about Shayne's drug addiction and his suicide.

She was shown a copy of a written statement Shayne gave to the District Attorney's office before his death. That statement was ruled hearsay at a previous pre-trial hearing and was not read aloud to jurors. Austin said she maintains her son's innocence.

The defense also called Shayne and Jason Autry's aunt, Judy Evans. She now owns the property where a barn used to sit. Previous testimony claimed Holly Bobo was raped in that barn.

Evans told the jury she searched the barn two days after Bobo was abducted and did not see anything different or strange. The barn has since been torn down, because Evans said it was in bad shape.

Court wrapped for the day around 4:30 p.m. It will resume Tuesday morning.

Phone records show Zach Adams apart from Holly Bobo at time of abduction

Updated:Tuesday, September 19th 2017, 2:39 pm CDT

DECATUR COUNTY, TN (WMC) - CLICK HERE to watch the trial live as it unfolds.

The defense is expected to call a number of witnesses to the stand as Zach Adams' murder trial of Holly Bobo continues in its second week.

Former TBI criminal investigator Terry Dicus was the first on the stand Tuesday.

Dicus said Zach Adams' name, along with Dylan Adams, Jason Autry, and Shayne Austin, came up within the first week of the murder investigation.
 ::snipping3::
The prosecution then questioned Dicus, who stopped working on the case in 2013. Dicus said he doesn't know what the state has done since he left.

The prosecution pointed out that Dicus assumed sexual predators work alone.

They also pointed out that Clint Bobo was never 100 percent certain which voice sounded most recognizable and close to that of the abductor.

Dicus pointed out that if Holly Bobo's and Zach Adams' phones were pinging at the same location, it would be reasonable if Zach was at his home.

Dicus said he was never aware of Adams' comments to other people about Holly, such as "I couldn't have picked a prettier [expletive]," because he left the case in 2013.

Dicus said there were at least 10 people taking credit for Holly's murder, including Zach Adams; investigators checked them all out, but believed they were not legitimate.

The court broke for lunch after Dicus' testimony finished.

Arthur G. Viveros, FBI special agent and lead investigator in the Holly Bobo murder trial, took the stand next. Viveros talked about what was found at Terry Britt's home, including a a blonde hair. During the cross exam, the prosecution asked Viveros if he knew the blonde that was found was not a DNA match to Holly Bobo, and he replied that he did know that.

After Viveros, the defense called David Barela, a private investigator and former criminal investigator with the US Army. The defense asked Barela to compare different bullet dimension. The prosecution said that Barela was not an expert in ballistics, and he agreed.

Travis Dunavant, an employee with the Decatur County Sheriff's Office, took the stand after Barela. He worked for the Decatur County jail in 2011. Dunavant was asked to check on Terry Britt's home. He testified that nobody answered the door and vehicles were missing at Britt's home. The prosecution chose not to cross exam Dunavant.

After Dunavant's testimony, John D. Adams, who goes by Dick and is Zach Adams' grandfather, took the stand next. Dick Adams testified that Zach Adams did not have a driver license, and he did not want him driving his white Nissan pickup truck. He also said that Dylan Adams did not have a habit of loaning Zach his truck.

The defense handed Dick a page out of his work log or diary, and it didn't mention seeing Zach Adams that day. The prosecution questioned Dick about Dylan Adams being in special education classes in school. Dick agreed that Dylan could "make it through the day" as in he could read, dress himself, and feed himself.

 ::snipping3::
The state officially rested their case around 3 p.m.

The defense called their first witness, Rita Austin. Austin is Shayne Austin's mother. Shayne Austin committed suicide in 2015. He was a person of interest in the case. Austin testified about Shayne's drug addiction and his suicide.

She was shown a copy of a written statement Shayne gave to the District Attorney's office before his death. That statement was ruled hearsay at a previous pre-trial hearing and was not read aloud to jurors. Austin said she maintains her son's innocence.

The defense also called Shayne and Jason Autry's aunt, Judy Evans. She now owns the property where a barn used to sit. Previous testimony claimed Holly Bobo was raped in that barn.

Evans told the jury she searched the barn two days after Bobo was abducted and did not see anything different or strange. The barn has since been torn down, because Evans said it was in bad shape.

Court wrapped for the day around 4:30 p.m. It will resume Tuesday morning.

do we know what shayne's statement said? I don't recall they said what it said, other than that he made one? And if his other knew about it?

5 witnesses granted immunity in Holly Bobo murder trial
by: Kristin Leigh Updated: Jul 6, 2017 - 6:46 PM

Austin, who was also granted immunity, was a person of interest in the case before he committed suicide in 2015.

During a court hearing in February, Nichols said Austin provided written testimony about Adams to the TBI before he killed himself.

“Do you recall Shayne Austin writing in his own hand writing that Zach said ‘I put her by the "T" in the river,’” Nichols read from a document in court in February, quoting Austin’s testimony about Zach.

“They’ll never find her there,” she continued, reading from the testimony.

The testimony is expected to be presented as evidence when Adams’ trial begins in September

HOLLY BOBO TRIAL, DAY 9: Third day of defense testimony begins
Posted 7:16 am, September 20, 2017, by Eryn Taylor, Updated at 01:05PM, September 20, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — After several days of testimony, the Holly Bobo trial is wrapping up as the defense calls its final witnesses.

Zachary Adams is accused of kidnapping, raping and murdering the 20-year-old nursing student over six years ago.

On Wednesday, the first to take the stand was John Wicker, a senior inspector with the US Marshals Service who was involved with the case back in 2011. He said the TBI asked him to look at Bobo’s cell phone records and map her phone the day she disappeared, but admitted he’s not an expert in the field despite the defense’s insistance on using him as one.

The judge ultimately decided his credentials weren’t fit for him to be considered an expert.

But the twists didn’t stop there. Wicker then testified about a day when he interviewed convicted rapist Terry Britt in jail in 2013. Keep in mind Britt was a main suspect early on in this case due to his criminal history and holes in his alibi.

The witness said the former TBI lead agent we heard from on Tuesday, Terry Dicus, was the one who asked him to go interview Britt.  During an interview, Wicker said he told Britt he knew he’d been stalking Bobo and kidnapped her. He also said he could help Britt work out a deal if he confessed since he was already facing lengthy time for other charges.

“Sounds like you have it all figured out,” Britt reportedly said. “I’ll plead to it and you can close the case.”

Wicker then told Britt he needed to tell him where the body was, to which Britt responded, “I can’t give you something I don’t have.”

The state pointed out how the witness gave Britt an incentive to confess and how he left out a lot of details in his initial report. They also claimed Britt wasn’t read his Miranda Rights and was told he could be looking at 30 more years for another charge.

Prosecutors also brought up these investigators knew nothing about Adams’ and his codefendants’ and the evidence tied to them when this interview took place.

Part One

We’ve also heard from another cell phone expert for the defense trying to debunk the state’s cell phone expert.

According to the witness, Bobo’s phone didn’t have GPS capabilities which means AT&T could only provide a general area of where the device could be. He said while Bobo and Adams’ phones were relatively close to each other, they’re still not in the same exact location.

He testified there was an overlap of the phones at 9:10 a.m.

He then compared the phone records of all the defendants and said it’s reasonable to assume Shayne Austin and Adams’ phones were together that morning.

When my cousin, Holly Bobo, went missing over 6 years ago, people started asking when I was going to write a song for her. However, the timing never felt right - the wound was too fresh for me and my family. I have hardly ever been able to talk about it without my emotions taking over. As time has gone by, I have finally been able to realize what I wanted to say to her. As a songwriter, I feel my purpose is to write about real life, what I know and how I feel, knowing that many others might just relate to what I am going through. I got the idea for "Better Place" last year and wanted to write it with people I'm really close with so I could really say what I wanted to say. I couldn't think of anyone better than Ashlee, Shelby, and my cousin Jonathan Singleton. I didn't get the chance to say goodbye to Holly or have a final conversation with her, so this song is my way of filling her in on everything since she's been gone. Life has moved on in some ways, yet it also feels like time stands still sometimes, but not a day goes by that I don't think of her. With her murder trial approaching, I wanted to release this song to honor her. No matter what happened here on Earth, I know she's in Heaven, and her heart isn't broken, even if ours is.

Holly Bobo trial day 10: 'The time is now,' prosecutors say in closing statement
Maranda Faris and Jordan Buie, Jackson SunPublished 5:00 p.m. CT Sept. 20, 2017 | Updated 11:00 a.m. CT Sept. 21, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — Assistant District Attorney Paul Hagerman told the jury Thursday the mystery of Holly Bobo’s disappearance should have been solved within two weeks.

In his closing arguments, Hagerman said Zach Adams had "cracks in the secret," and evidence pointed to him as a suspect.

But the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation was distracted, he said.

“Instead, (Investigator Terry Dicus) came up with some theory of sexual predators,” Hagerman said. “This is not Dragnet, just the facts. In the first few weeks, this could have been done.”

Hagerman said too much time was spent on other suspects, such as convicted sex offender Terry Britt, when strong evidence pointed back to Adams, his brother Dylan, Jason Autry, and Shayne Austin.

Hagerman pointed out how numerous people in Adams circle testified that they heard Adams say he killed or raped Bobo or that alluded to the act, all after Adams became the focus of the investigation once Dicus was taken off the case.

Two of those people were other inmates — one to send a message to Dylan Adams.

"They've got no body. They've got no gun," Hagerman said, reminding the jury of testimony presented last week.

After a brief recess, defense attorneys will present their closing arguments

Holly Bobo trial day 10: State showed no evidence linking Zach Adams to murder, defense argues
Maranda Faris and Jordan Buie, Jackson SunPublished 5:00 p.m. CT Sept. 20, 2017 | Updated 12:37 p.m. CT Sept. 21, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — Defense Attorney Jennifer Thompson told the jury Thursday that evidence that does not directly tie her defendant Zach Adams to Holly Bobo’s disappearance doesn’t matter.

“The cases in criminal court are not about what is possible, but what is provable without a reasonable doubt,” Thompson said in her closing statements.

"When you dig down deep into what the government says and what the real facts are, there are many holes in their story," Thompson told the jury. "What the government can not explain — that's what Dylan (Adams) and Shayne (Austin) did."

Thompson listed the description of the suspect, witness testimony and discovery of Bobo's remains all as having no direct link to her client, who is charged with felony first-degree murder, especially aggravated kidnapping and aggravated rape.

She also pointed out that the prosecution’s case rests on the testimonies of several criminals, including Jason Autry, a co-defendant in the case, while two law enforcement officers, including former Tennessee Bureau of Investigation lead investigator in the case, testified that Zach Adams was believed to be innocent.

Thompson said the best lies contain some elements of truth and the lies in this trial came from Autry.

"(Jason Autry) sold his death penalty to the state government for a tall tale," she said.

Holly Bobo trial day 10: Deliberations start in Adams' trial
Published 5:00 p.m. CT Sept. 20, 2017 | Updated 3:17 p.m. CT Sept. 21, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — A Hardin County jury has started their deliberations to

“She just disappeared.”

Prosecutor Jennifer Nichols reminded the jury, with one of the last photos ever taken of Holly Lynn Bobo shown on a screen beside them, that the 20-year-old nursing student was taken from the only home she’d ever known.

She was wearing the promise ring her boyfriend gave her four months earlier at Christmas 2010, carrying the keys to her Mustang. She had her notebook, with “Student Nurse” and a smiley face written on the cover.

“She disappeared without a trace,” Nichols said. “But people don’t really disappear without a trace, do they? Do they? Holly didn’t.”

Holly bled. Nichols said Holly Bobo bled a lot, on the carport of the house her father built.

And then she was gang raped.

Then she was killed, with a single .32-caliber shot to the back of her head. One shot, fired under the bridge near the Birdsong Marina at the Interstate 40 overpass and the Tennessee River.

“Will God forgive me?” Nichols said, reminding the jury of a question accused killer Zach Adams made to a cell mate. “The state submits that that’s between him and God. Not between him and you.”

Verdict watch: Jurors resume deliberations in Holly Bobo murder trial
Posted: Sep 22, 2017 5:09 AM CDT
Updated: Sep 22, 2017 11:53 AM CDT

 ::snipping3::
Jurors resumed their deliberations at 8:30 a.m. Friday. They requested lunch around 11:20 a.m. This comes after the jury worked for almost three hours on Thursday.

The jury is working to decide if Zach Adams is guilty in the 2011 murder of the nursing student. Adams is one of three people charged in the case.

Judge C. Creed McGinley said the jury will work until 6 p.m. each day unless they are close to a decision, which means they can continue working.
 ::snipping3::
Adams is charged with first-degree murder, especially aggravated kidnapping and aggravated rape.
 ::snipping3::
The judge says he will alert the courtroom 30 minutes before the jury announces their decision.

There are four main scenarios that could play out during this trial:
•Scenario 1: The jury finds Adams guilty of first-degree murder. If this happens, sentencing will begin right away, and jurors will have to decide if Adams deserves the death penalty.
•Scenario 2: The jury finds Adams guilty of lesser charges. In this case, the judge would be responsible for sentencing, which would happen at a later date.
•Scenario 3: The jury finds Adams not guilty. If this is the case, Adams would go back to the Williamson County jail and walk free after processing.
•Scenario 4: The jury cannot reach a verdict, causing a hung jury.

GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS: Jury reaches verdict in Holly Bobo trial
POSTED 4:51 PM, SEPTEMBER 22, 2017, BY BRIDGET CHAPMAN AND WREG STAFF, UPDATED AT 05:03PM, SEPTEMBER 22, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — A jury has returned a verdict of  against Zachary Adams in the kidnapping and fatally shooting Tennessee nursing student Holly Bobo.

The sequestered panel of 12 people began considering physical evidence and witness testimony Thursday in the trial of Zachary Adams in Savannah, Tennessee. They deliberated 3 ½ hours and resumed Friday morning — the trial’s 11th day.

Adams has pleaded not guilty to abducting, raping and killing Bobo. She was 20 when she reportedly walked into the woods behind her family’s house with an unidentified man wearing camouflage and disappeared on April 13, 2011.

Her remains were found 3 ½ years later, near her home in Parsons.

Judge C. Creed McGinley moved the trial to Hardin County in search of an unbiased jury.

Bobo’s disappearance sparked a massive search in the fields, barns and woods of western Tennessee, and the case received national attention. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has said the investigation was the most exhaustive and expensive in the agency’s history.

Holly Bobo trial: What Zach Adams could face if convicted
Published 11:42 a.m. CT Sept. 22, 2017 | Updated 12:24 p.m. CT Sept. 22, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn — Zach Adams is facing some of the most serious charges possible under Tennessee law — including charges that carry the death penalty if convicted.

Adams is charged with felony murder, first-degree murder, aggravated rape and especially aggravated kidnapping.

Felony murder is a charge based on a crime committed during another felony crime — in Adams’ case those crimes are rape and kidnapping.

The felony murder charges are based on “alternative theories.” Those theories are based on Holly Bobo’s death being directly tied to her rape, and one theory that says her death is directly related to her abduction.
 ::snipping3::
If a jury finds him guilty of felony murder, the trial will move into a “penalty phase.” In the penalty phase, the same jury would hear evidence about the crime and about Adams before deciding if he will be convicted of life with the possibility of parole, life without parole, or the death penalty.

Life with parole means Adams would spend the next 51 years serving his sentence before the possibility of a parole option. Life without parole takes that 51-year time limit away, meaning that there would be no possibility of parole for Adams.

If convicted of the death penalty, Adams would be sentenced to die by lethal injection.

Holly Bobo trial Day 11: TBI releases statement after guilty verdicts
Published 9:19 a.m. CT Sept. 22, 2017 | Updated 5:10 p.m. CT Sept. 22, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — Zach Adams has been found guilty of all counts, including two counts of felony murder in the death of Holly Bobo.

Immediately after the verdict was read, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation released a statement about the verdicts.

"Since the start of this investigation, our priority has been to pursue justice for the family and friends of Holly Bobo," Director Mark Gwyn said. "Today, though we are gratified by the jury's verdict, our thoughts remain with them."

"We pursued this case as we do all others: To the best of our abilities. I am proud of the dedicated work of our Agents and Forensic Scientists, and thank the prosecution team for their tireless efforts.

AVANNAH, Tenn. (AP) - A Tennessee man avoided a possible death penalty by agreeing Saturday to a sentence of life in prison plus 50 years for the kidnapping, rape and killing of nursing student Holly Bobo.
 ::snipping3::
Judge C. Creed McGinley told a jury that Zachary Adams made a deal with prosecutors just minutes ahead of his sentencing hearing. Adams, 33, was convicted Friday of murder, especially aggravated kidnapping and aggravated rape after an 11-day jury trial in Savannah, Tennessee.

Under the agreement, Adams received a state prison term of life without parole for Bobo's killing. He was sentenced to consecutive terms of 25 years for both the kidnapping and rape convictions.

HOLLY BOBO TRIAL: Court accepts agreement of life plus 50 years for Zach Adams
Posted 10:23 am, September 23, 2017, by Bridget Chapman and Shay Arthur, Updated at 11:37AM, September 23, 2017

SAVANNAH, Tenn. — Both sides have reached an agreement that Zach Adams will be sentenced to life in prison without parole plus 50 years.

This means jurors did not have to decide Adams’ fate in regards to the death penalty after all.

Karen Bobo addressed the court.

“She was the sweetest person I have ever known in my life,” she said about her daughter Holly.

She told jurors they had done the right thing.

“Last night I saw my husband smile for the first time in six and a half years.”

She asked Zach Adams to look at her as she told him: “I know that my daughter fought and fought hard … and I know that she begged for her life because my daughter loved life. But you chose to take it from her — look at me, please — but you have shown absolutely no remorse for anything you’ve done.”

Adams’ defense attorney Jennifer Thompson said afterwards that she had instructed him to not show emotion, so he remained stoic. She thanked the Bobo family for going along with attorneys’ agreement.

She plans to file for a mistrial and then appeal in the next 30 days. She said she has to look at what the grounds are for why she would file for a mistrial
.

Prosecutors said the Bobo family had reluctantly agreed on the deal for Adams’ prison sentence

Co-defendants Dylan Adams and Jason Autry will be in court for status hearings on their cases at 2 p.m. on Nov. 14.

Holly Bobo case: convicted killer sentenced to life in prison plus 50 years
September 23, 2017

A man convicted of killing Holly Bobo avoided the death penalty Saturday after accepting a sentence that will keep him behind bars for the rest of his life-- plus 50 years.

Zachary Adams, 33, was found guilty Friday in the kidnapping, rape and murder of the 20-year-old Tennessee nursing student in 2011. Her skeletal remains were found three years later.

Judge C. Creed McGinley told a jury Saturday that Adams made a deal with prosecutors just minutes ahead of his sentencing hearing.

Under the agreement, Adams received a term of life without parole for Bobo's killing. He was sentenced to consecutive terms of 25 years on the kidnapping and rape counts.
 ::snipping3::

Two other men, Jason Autry and Adams' brother, John Dylan Adams, also face charges of kidnapping, raping and killing Bobo.

Autry testified against Adams, telling jurors that Adams told him that he, his brother and their friend Shayne Austin had raped Bobo. Autry also said that he served as a lookout as Adams shot Bobo near a river on the day she was reported missing.

Autry was on a list of witnesses who were offered immunity in the case. He said he testified because he wanted leniency.

Autry's lawyer has told the judge that a trial does not need to be set for Autry, indicating he has reached a deal with prosecutors.
A trial date has not been set for John Dylan Adams.

Holly Bobo killer Zach Adams files motion for new trial
Published: November 9, 2017, 2:48 pm  |  Updated: November 9, 2017, 5:03 pm

HARDIN COUNTY, Tenn. (WKRN) – The man convicted of murdering Holly Bobo wants a new trial.

Zach Adams’ attorney Jennifer Thompson tells News 2 she has filed a motion for a new trial in Hardin County. The motion cites two arguments:

•The evidence was not sufficient for a verdict of guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
•The court erred in not granting Adams’ motion for a change of venue

In a surprise twist, the prosecution and defense agreed to a deal that gave Adams a  life sentence instead of the death penalty.

More: Life in prison without parole + 50 years for Zach Adams, convicted in murder of Holly Bobo

The request for a new trial would have to go before Judge C. Creed McGinley, who heard the case in September.  If he denies the motion, Adams can file an appeal with the State Court of Appeals.

In a related development, a hearing is scheduled for next week for co-defendants Dylan Adams and Jason Autry.

Tentative trial date for Dylan Adams in Holly Bobo case
Published 3:10 p.m. CT Nov. 14, 2017 | Updated 3:26 p.m. CT Nov. 14, 2017

SAVANNAH — Hardin County Judge C. Creed McGinley has set a tentative trial date of May 29 for John Dylan Adams, one of three men charged in the rape, kidnapping and killing of 20-year-old nursing student Holly Bobo.

McGinley said he is hopeful Adams' case can be tried within a week and expects it to move "a lot faster" than Zach Adams' trial.

McGinley said the jury pool will come from another county, and specifically mentioned Chattanooga for John Dylan Adams' case, because they are unlikely to find an unbiased jury from Hardin County following the Zach Adams trial earlier this year.

"I anticipate getting the jury in Chattanooga perhaps on the 24th (of May)," McGinley said.

McGinley said the jury will be sequestered by court order in John Dylan Adams' trial. 

John Dylan Adams' returned to the Hardin County Courthouse Tuesday afternoon for a status hearing. The state also filed a motion to no longer seek the death penalty or life without parole against Adams

Jason Autry, who was originally scheduled for a status hearing Tuesday, and is also charged in the rape, kidnapping and killing of Holly Bobo, will not have his case heard until Adams’ is completed, McGinley said.
 ::snipping3::
Adams' next status hearing is set for 10 a.m. Dec. 14.

Dylan Adams won’t face death penalty in Holly Bobo case; trial set for May
Posted 3:12 pm, November 14, 2017, by Bridget Chapman, Updated at 04:59PM, November 14, 2017

 ::snipping3::
“I have moved this case as quickly as I could considering the huge amounts of discovery,” McGinley said. “Well over 100 agents worked on this and it’s just mountains of discovery.”

The next jury could come from from Chattanooga, where there has been relatively little coverage of the case, the judge said.

With the state taking the death penalty off the table, Adams faces a life sentence of 51 years if convicted.

The judge said he’ll be setting a cut-off date soon for when both sides could reach a plea agreement instead of going to trial.

SAVANNAH, Tenn. (AP) – A judge says progress has been made toward a plea agreement in the case of a man charged with kidnapping, raping and killing Tennessee nursing student Holly Bobo.

Judge C. Creed McGinley told a defense lawyer and prosecutors during a Thursday morning hearing that both sides must decide by 2 p.m. if they are going to reach a negotiated plea deal for John Dylan Adams. When court reconvened at that time, he said “substantial progress” had been made toward a deal and then set a hearing Monday to discuss a possible agreement.

BREAKING: Suspect in Holly Bobo murder enters best-interest plea
January 22, 2018  by WBBJ 7 Eyewitness News Staff 

UPDATE: Dylan Adams has entered a best-interest plea in the disappearance and death of Holly Bobo

Adams is pleading to facilitation of first-degree murder for 15 years and especially aggravated kidnapping at 35 years to run concurrently. Adams will serve 35 years total.

This type of plea does not admit guilt but has the same effect as a guilty plea. The guilty plea means that Adams cannot appeal the sentence.

Judge Creed McGinley said he knows no one is happy but that he is glad the Bobo family will not have to go through Adams’ trial.

The Fate Of The Final Defendant In The Holly Bobo Murder Case

Updated: 10:28 PM, Jul 9, 2018

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - What's next for the state's star witness in the Holly Bobo murder case? Jason Autry is charged, but he helped send the two other defendants -- brothers Zach and Dylan Adams -- to prison.

Now, some believe Autry, who is still jailed awaiting trail, will get a sweetheart deal.

That may happen, but not anytime soon. It's been ten months since a jury convicted Zach Adams of kidnapping raping and murdering Holly Bobo
 ::snipping3::
Zach Adams attorney Jennifer Thompson has filed a notice of appeal. And she plans to cite several issues, alleged mistakes, arguing for a new trial.

So Autry could remain locked up until the appeals court rules - a least a couple more years.

For now, Autry remain incarcerated without bond in the Riverbend Maximum Security Prison.

One Year After Trial And The Holly Bobo Case Is Still Open

Updated: 6:44 PM, Oct 2, 2018

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A jury convicted Zach Adams of killing Holly Bobo. Not long after that his brother pleaded guilty. But one year later, the case remains open.

Jason Autry, the third defendant and the state's star witness still awaits his fate. He could be awaiting trial or, more likely, a plea deal that sets him free years earlier than many might expect.
 ::snipping3::
It was chilling testimony that sealed Adams Conviction and a life sentence. But one year later, Autry is still sitting in Riverbend Maximum Security prison waiting. The case is stalled. Why?

"The state is concerned that if the case is reversed and in my opinion there is a strong likelihood of that they'll need him again," said Todd.

That's right, legal expert Jim Todd thinks Adams could get a new trial on appeal. And Adam's attorney Jennifer Thompson said she is still awaiting transcripts from the trial so she can formally file her appeals on the case.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — The man convicted of killing Holly Bobo could get a second day in court.

There are new developments on the status of Zach Adams  ’ appeal and the very real possibility he could get a new trial.
 ::snipping3::

"No, that case is not over. Still planning on the appeal," said Thompson.

The appeal could be filed before the end of the summer.

The defense is simply waiting for the court to provide the full transcripts of all testimony that will be used to make their case. Once the appeal is filed, it will take several months for the Appellate Court to respond.

If a new trial is granted it likely would now come before sometime late next year.

Holly Bobo case: Zach Adams' attorney says appeal process could take years
Cassandra Stephenson, Jackson Sun Published 2:51 p.m. CT June 6, 2019 | Updated 9:02 a.m. CT June 7, 2019

After a news outlet reported new developments in the appeal of the man convicted in the kidnapping, rape and killing of Holly Bobo, the man's attorney is now saying the appeal process will likely stretch on for a few more years.
 ::snipping3::
Thompson announced her request for a new trial in November 2017, claiming there was insufficient evidence to convict her client and the case should have been moved. Originally slated for Decatur County, the September 2017 trial was moved to Hardin County due to the case's high public profile.

Thompson wrote that the appeal is "moving slowly" but there are no particular holdups or sticking points — it just takes time.

The motion for the new trial has already been filed with the criminal court, but Thompson wrote she expects the appeal process to be more complicated.

"I would not expect the trial judge to grant us a new trial," she wrote.

Thompson anticipates she will have to file a notice of appeal with the trial court clerk's office following the initial hearing so the case will move on to the criminal court of appeals.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — There’s new information in the high-profile Holly Bobo murder case. Zach Adams' appeal of the conviction may now move forward.

Everything had been on hold since Adams' conviction while all of the trial testimony was transcribed. In 2017, jurors convicted Adams of first-degree murder  for his role in Bobo's kidnapping and killing.

Now that the transcription process is complete, Adams' attorney, Jennifer Thompson, can now move to file an appeal. This also raises questions now about what happens with another defendant in the case — Jason Autry.

Updated: 7:00 PM, Aug 22, 2019

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Jason Autry, the third and final defendant accused of murdering Holly Bobo has finished a federal prison sentence for a different crime. But he'll remain in prison for now -- waiting to see if a plea deal will set him free.

Before he was arrested in the murder of Bobo, Autry was in prison on a federal gun crime. His eight year sentence on that crime is up.
 ::snipping3::
But it may not be until late next year when the three state appellate court judges finally hear the appeal.

In the meantime, it looks like Autry will remain in prison. Prosecutors don't want to set him free until they know whether a new trial will be ordered. They know if there is another trial on appeal, Autry again will have to be called as a witness.

Any plea deal won't kick in until the legal process is complete.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — It seems the prosecution is finally ready to move into the final stage of the high-profile Holly Bobo murder case.

Zach Adams was convicted of killing Bobo in 2017. Now, I've learned his long-awaited appeal will go before a judge in just two weeks.
 ::snipping3::
Autry, who was a star witness against Adams, remains locked up. But word is he cut a deal for his testimony at trial against Adams and that he will be released after Adams' appeal is heard. That will be the last step for the prosecution in this long, tragic case.

So, what happens with the appeal?

It will finally be heard by Judge Creed McGinley the second week in August. I'm told it's highly unlikely he'll grant a new trial. So, Adams will then turn to the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals, and that could take a few years.

If that happens, a plea date will be set for Autry, who will then very likely look at an early release on time already served.

Hardin County Judge Creed McGinley denied all motions by Zach Adams' attorney Tuesday, all but ending his attempts to avoid spending the rest of his life in prison for the rape and murder of Holly Bobo.

Adams was convicted in September 2017 and sentenced to life without parole plus 50 years after a jury found him guilty of eight counts, including first-degree murder, aggravated rape and aggravated kidnapping.

Adams' attorney originally requested a retrial in November 2017. The attorney filed 56 reasons for appeal in February 2020, arguing the setting of the trial "wasn't fair."

Following the Hardin County court's decision, Adams can now appeal his case to the Tennessee Court of Criminal Appeals.

Man charged in Holly Bobo trial pleads guilty, will be released from prison
September 14, 2020  Clint Eiland

HARDIN COUNTY, Tenn. — Jason Autry was escorted into the Hardin County Courthouse Monday morning, to plead guilty to two counts related to the kidnapping, rape and murder of Holly Bobo.

“If the court accepts your plea, you plead guilty to facilitating especially aggravated kidnapping, count two you’d be pleading guilty to solicitation of murder one,” Judge Creed McGinley told Autry.

As part of the plea agreement, Autry would serve eight years for each count, and those would serve concurrent to one another. But, after taking into account time already served, it meant Autry would be released from prison later this week.

“He has plans to show that he can be a productive member of society, he’s very remorseful for what happened, and he wants to lead a good life,” said Michael School, Autry’s defense attorney.

Autry testified in 2017 against Zachary Adams. Zach Adams was sentenced to life in prison, while Dylan Adams plead guilty.

Without Autry’s testimony, prosecuting attorneys say the trial may not have gone the way it did.

“I cannot stress to you how extremely crucial that was into getting us answers and being able to try Zach Adams, being able to get a substantial guilty plea on Dylan Adams,” said Paul Hagerman with the Shelby County District Attorney’s Office.

Autry’s plea agreement effectively closes the saga of the Holly Bobo case, almost a decade after her disappearance and murder.

Appeal denied for man convicted in Holly Bobo murder

By Lydian Kennin
Published: Sep. 9, 2022 at 7:16 PM CDT|Updated: 4 hours ago

HARDIN COUNTY, Tenn. (WMC) - The Tennessee Court of Criminal Appeals has denied an appeal by a man convicted in the death of Holly Bobo to have his sentence overturned.

Zachary Adams was convicted in 2017 for first-degree murder, aggravated kidnapping and aggravated rape.

He is currently serving life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Zachary Adams history involves violent assault against own mother

Holly Bobo was a nursing student who disappeared from her home in Darden, Tennessee, in 2011.

Her remains were found in 2014.

Adams’ attorneys claimed nearly a dozen errors during his trial as grounds for a new trial.

The appeals court sided with the original trial court.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — As the star witness in the Holly Bobo murder trial, Jason Autry spoke in a calm, deliberative manner as an attentive jury listened to him recreate the day the kidnapped Tennessee nursing student was wrapped in a blanket, placed in the back of a pickup truck, driven to a river and shot to death by his friend.
 ::snipping3::
Autry’s reversal was revealed in two petitions seeking post-conviction relief filed by Adams’ lawyer in Hardin County, where the trial took place. Adams, 39, wants his conviction thrown out based on Autry’s latest statements about the case that grabbed national headlines and frightened residents of Bobo’s quiet west Tennessee hometown of Parsons, about 120 miles (193 kilometers) east of Memphis.

“The record will ultimately acquit Mr. Adams based on Mr. Jason Autry’s complete and total recantation,” one of the petitions says.
