PARSONS, Tenn. -- A 20-year-old nursing student who was last seen being dragged from her house by a man dressed in camouflage might have been abducted in a home invasion Wednesday, authorities said.

Holly Bobo's 25-year-old brother told investigators that he saw the man dragging his sister across the carport at her family home in the community of Darden in Decatur County and toward a wooded area, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said. Its violent crime response team was gathering evidence.

Tennessee Nursing Student Dragged into Woods by Camouflaged Abductor
Holly Bobo's Brother and Mother Watched as She was Dragged into the Woods

April 14, 2011

Almost 400 volunteers are searching the dense West Tennessee woodlands looking for a 20-year-old nursing student last seen being dragged by a man dressed in camouflage into the woods near her home, investigators said.
olly Bobo was dragged "across the carport of her home… toward a wooded area" in the town of Parsons on Wednesday, according to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. Both Bobo's mother and 25-year-old brother watched the woman being abducted and called 911.

Mayer would not say if family members tried to intervene or if they were suspected in the abduction.

 ::snipping2::
Investigators initially believe the young woman may have been abducted from her house in a home invasion, but John Mayer, spokesman for the TBI told ABCNews.com that "the suspect was never inside."

Police won't comment on what else family members told them or what evidence may have been left behind.

"The investigation is ongoing," said Mayer.

Between 300 and 400 people are involved in today's search, Mayer said.

Investigators are using sniffing dogs and a helicopter to comb the rural area around Bobo's home, about 100 miles north of Memphis.

Calls to Bobo's family were not returned.

Search ongoing for woman seen abducted from home

 ::snipping2::
Authorities said the 911 center received two phone calls when Holly Bobo, 20, was abducted Wednesday morning. One was from her 25-year-old brother, who was in the home, and the other was from a woman police did not identify.

The search area was widened Thursday and covers rugged terrain with trees and brush so thick that at least one search dog had to be carried by its handler on Wednesday afternoon, police said.
 ::snipping2::
Investigators say the brother is helping with the investigation, and they are looking into the possibility that someone may have checked out her home before the abduction. Police are asking neighbors to report any unusual people or cars in the area.

I am totally confused by the brother witnessing it and not trying to stop it? Maybe he did and they aren't telling anyone, but it sounds odd IMO. Also, I know this area very well-had a house on the TN river which is about 6 miles away, very brushy and thick area and when I'd go with my BF to the house for the weekend, unless there were several of us there we took a gun ::MonkeyEek:: Also the proximity to the river bothers me, it's got so many little hidden coves and is murky.....well, generally just a vast area to search. God be with her family and bring her home

What an unfortunate situation.

From all accounts it is pretty obvious that this was not a crime of opportunity, but one that was planned. The abductor knew Holly or at least knew her routine. One has to wonder just how long she was being stalked. In all that time no one noticed any thing suspicious.

http://scaredmonkeys.com/2011/04/14/20-year-old-holly-bobo-missing-in-decatur-county-tennessee-after-man-dressed-in-camouflage-breaks-into-house/

The search continues ... that area of TN is so rural and wooded. If some one was familiar with the area and terrain they would have a great advantage. Although with no one having found anything, a vehicle had to have been close by.

No, Red it looks like it was rather planned out.   

Ive been thinking about this all afternoon & since the boyfriend is reportedly being cleared I'm thinking that the campus should put out an alert because it could have been someone stalking her from school.   I'm not sure at this point that any suspicion should be on her own brother, maybe what has been reported is true that he thought she was with her known boyfriend & he couldnt get to her fast enough when he realized it wasnt, we'll have to see what unfolds.   I'm very concerned that they already reported that there was blood found on the carport.

Bad weather to affect search for missing TN woman
By The Associated Press
Friday, April 15, 2011 at 5:04 a.m.

PARSONS, Tenn. — A sheriff says bad weather moving through western Tennessee will affect the search for a woman who was last seen being dragged away by a man in camouflage.

Speaking Friday on NBC's "Today" show, Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt said there are forecasts of hail, wind and possibly tornadoes in the area. He said searchers would wait and see how that will affect efforts to find 20-year-old Holly Bobo.

Tennessee woman, 20, missing after being dragged from home

(CNN) -- Authorities on Friday suspended the search for a 20-year-old Tennessee woman dragged from her home on Wednesday, saying bad weather made it impossible to continue.

Holly Bobo was wearing a pink shirt and light blue jeans at 7:30 a.m. Wednesday, when a relative saw her being dragged across the carport of her Darden, Tennessee, home, according to a statement from the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

Smith wouldn't elaborate on what type of new evidence was found, but CNN has learned that a white lunch box was found near a creek eight miles away.

On Friday, hundreds of volunteers -- some on horseback and foot, others on all-terrain vehicles -- spent their second day combing through a four-square-mile area of Decatur County in hopes of finding new clues about who took the young nursing student.

Investigators said they found the phone and camouflage clothing inside a vehicle nearly eight miles from Holly Bobo's home. Her white lunch box was recovered from a creek in the area, police said.

According to separate accounts from TBI spokeswoman Kristin Helm and special agent John Mehr, Bobo's brother, Clint Bobo, saw her outside with a man before she was taken on Wednesday morning. But they said Clint Bobo only saw the man from the back and thought it was her boyfriend.

PARSONS, Tenn. — Searchers have found some items that belong to a western Tennessee nursing student abducted from her home by a man wearing full hunting camouflage, investigators said Friday.
 ::snipping2::

According to separate accounts from TBI spokeswoman Kristin Helm and special agent John Mehr, Bobo's 25-year-old brother Clint saw his sister outside the house with a man before she was taken at around 7:30 a.m. But he only saw the man from the back, and he thought he was her boyfriend.

He did not become suspicious until he went outside and saw blood. Then he called 911. Mehr said the brother is not a suspect. Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt said earlier there are no suspects.

The TBI had previously said Bobo was dragged from her home near Parsons, about 100 miles northeast of Memphis. On Friday, Mehr clarified that she was being held by the hand or arm, but not in a forceful manner.

I wanted to share my thoughts & questions on this case.

If Holly was screaming,blood was on the carport...
Why was the lunch box found  8
 miles away? Was it hand held or shoulder strap?f  If she was struggling you would think she would drop her things?

Why would the kidnapper leave the car and things to be located?was it not well planned or were other involved? Isn't unusual in a kidnapping to find these items so fast or at all?

Holly Bobo: New clues; brother didn't witness sister’s abduction

PARSONS, Tennessee -- As new clues emerged Friday investigators announced Tennessee nursing student Holly Bobo’s brother did not witness her abduction and that he became suspicious and called 911 when he saw blood outside their home.

Online rumors spread quickly this week that Holly’s brother, 25-year-old Clint Bobo, sat back and did nothing while he witnessed a man dressed in camouflage clothing dragging his sister from their carport and into the woods.

Crews have resumed their search for a western Tennessee woman abducted from her home by a man wearing full hunting camouflage.

About 400 volunteers have showed up so far to help look for Holly Bobo, according to witnesses.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has scheduled a 3 p.m. press conference for Saturday afternoon.

McCoy said Bobo had already begun her clinical training program at local hospitals. He called her a natural nurse, soothing and gentle with the sick.

"She was so good with the patients," McCoy said.

Besides surprise, the suspected abduction also inspired fear. Residents nearby say they have begun to lock their doors at night. Bobo's father, Dana, has said the captor was probably watching the family and knew the rhythm of their comings and goings from the one-story home where Bobo lived with parents and 25-year-old brother, Clint.

Bobo was on her way to campus to take a test when she was taken.

Description Of Possible Attacker

A TBI spokesman said the possible abductor is a man between 5 feet 10 inches and 6 feet tall and weighing about 200 pounds and not her boyfriend. Officials said the Bobo family has been extremely cooperative in the investigation.

No one in the Bobo family has any criminal history, according to the Decatur County clerk of court. The Sheriff's Department described the Bobo family as a strong Christian family who does not deserve this situation. Authorities are pursuing many different leads.

Since news of the case spread, neighbors and people in nearby communities have poured out to help search, bring food and support family members who are holding together reasonably well, Smith said.

Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Bobo is asked to call the TBI at 1-800-TBI-FIND. Dogs, horses and helicopters are being used in the search for Bobo.

This article has allot of good information. I did find the boyfriend on fbook and he appears to be a normal kid. Holly and her boyfriend look like a "Ken and Barbie" couple.
There are four beautiful pictures of Holly at the link also.

 http://www.thedaily.com/page/2011/01/05/041511-news-holly-bobo-4-4/ (http://www.thedaily.com/page/2011/01/05/041511-news-holly-bobo-4-4/)

<snipped>
he search for the young woman covers a rural area with trees and brush so thick at least one search dog had to be carried by its handler. Authorities also were using a helicopter.


Holly had been dating a local boy, 19-year-old Drew Scott.


The boy's grandmother, Susie Siglow, told The Daily the two were madly in love and planning to marry, and said Drew was too distraught to speak.


"I’ve known Holly for a long time," Siglow said. "Holly would never hurt nobody and she would never run away from home. She is the sweetest person you could ever meet."


She added, "[Drew] is tore up. Last night was the first night they’ve been apart for about a year."


Holly, who sings every Sunday at the Corinth Baptist Church, is the cousin of country music artist Whitney Duncan, 26, who made a plea through Facebook for fans to pray for Holly's safe return.


“My cousin Holly was kidnapped this morning,” she posted. “Please pray for her & our family. This is really sad & shocking.”


Meanwhile, Courtney Jeffreys, 20, who has known Holly since preschool, recoiled at the idea that Clint could have done more to save his sister.


"I can't think of anyone that would hurt Holly," Jeffreys told The Daily. "The thought that someone suspects Clint would hurt her or intentionally do something to keep them from finding her is ridiculous. They were very close and I can only imagine how he must be feeling."


Jason Rushing, director of the University of Tennessee at Martin Parsons campus, said Bobo was enrolled in a one-year program to become a licensed practical nurse.


"She was a good student, capable, conscientious with her school work," he said. "You could tell by the way she interacted with others that she was popular with other students."


Bobo enrolled in the program last August and had class Wednesday and Thursday.

Woman's abduction consumes western Tenn. community


PARSONS, Tenn. (AP) - Whether they are grabbing coffee, sitting down for a meal or filling their pickup trucks with gas, people in this western Tennessee town are talking about the abduction of 20-year-old Holly Bobo.

Those who know the nursing student with blond hair and a big smile say they don't know what's more shocking: that anyone in this community about 100 miles northeast of Memphis would be abducted or that it would happen to someone like her.

"That's what's so surprising: that it's her," said Robert McCoy, who goes to nursing school with her at the University of Tennessee at Martin.

"She's just the sweetest little thing and so smart."

She was last seen by her brother, Clint, early Wednesday morning as she walked into the woods with an unknown man. Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Special Agent John Mehr said authorities do not believe she went willingly.

Holly Bobo Followed Kidnapper into Tennessee Woods in 'Fear of Her Life'
Investigators Rule Out Boyfriend and Brother as Suspects
April 15, 2011

 
Bobo's 25-year-old brother watched from inside the home, but did not believe she was being abducted until later. He saw the stranger from behind and believed it was his sister's boyfriend.

Investigators initially said the woman was dragged from near the house's carport into the woods, leading many to ask why the brother had not intervened.

Her brother, said Mehr, "had reasons to believe [the man] was not an attacker."

The officer said that neither Bobo's brother nor her boyfriend were suspects. "We are confident of that," he said.

Our local CBS affiliate WREG, confirmed what was earlier reported.   Also reported again that a lunch box & cell phone was found around her home but TBI would not discuss the evidence.

It was restated that the brother and boyfriend are not suspects.   I see no reason that they should be.


I have firmed up my plans so if still needed I will have my boots on the ground next weekend for certain.

Busloads full of volunteers searched wooded areas near Bible Hill and Yellow Springs roads. They looked for gender-specific and student-related materials such as books, notebooks or items that may be found in a purse, said Tennessee Highway Patrol Lt. Brad Wilbanks.

They searched for two and three hours at a time, with three yellow school buses picking up and dropping volunteers.

"If that was my child, I'd want someone to help me," said Chester County volunteer Patsy Stedman, who helped comb the hilly terrain of grass, dirt, insects and creeks.

Why was it originally believed that Holly was dragged into the woods?  Why did the story change?

In the process of elimination ... why was the brother dismissed as a person of interest from the getgo?

When I consider the blood and ... the brother's account that now implies there was no altercation ... it does not add up.

Police Find Lunch Box, Blood as Search for Whitney Duncan’s Cousin Holly Bobo Continues

<snipped>

It was originally believed that Bobo was forcibly dragged into the woods near her home by a man in camouflage. It has since been brought to light by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation that she was led by her arm or hand, and complied because she may have been scared for her life.

Bobo, a 20-year-old nursing student at University of Tennessee Martin, was getting ready to leave for school when she was taken during a home invasion around 7:30AM. Her older brother, who witnessed the encounter, mistook the abductor for Bobo’s boyfriend — but when he went outside and spotted blood on the ground, he called police. It has not been confirmed that the blood is Bobo’s, but law enforcement did recover her white lunch box nearby. Neither the brother nor the boyfriend are immediate suspects in the case.

In a news conference with Bobo’s parents on Thursday, her father said that he believes the intruder may have been someone close to the family.

sorry let me clarify that..and go look for links, the news stories said at first the brother watched her being dragged away (if this was the truth then yes that would be kind of concerning because no brother or sister would watch one of their siblings be dragged away). Police have since clarified that early news reporting and said that he didn't see her dragged away, He saw her talking to someone that he assumed was her boyfriend.

The brother has been cleared as well as her boyfriend Drew.  It has been explained that Clint, her brother saw her with a man in camo & he thought it was her boyfriend but when he found blood on the carport he knew something was wrong.   This occurred approx 7:30 in the morning.    At this time there is nothing that would indicate speculating any further in regards to her brother or her boyfriend is fruitful.

Personally, I have a thought that this may be an ex or admirer that was either jealous or a perceived notion that she should have been with him.   To me, it appears she at least knew this person by sight and/or previous encounter....Gut feeling.

Where did the original account come from?  My reading reveals that it was not until it was questioned way the brother did not intervene if Holly had been dragged away that the story changed.  However ... the changed story does not explain the blood.

Holly is my focus.  Until the truth is revealed ... this wannabe detective has her suspicions.

i agree with you Capp that this was probobaly either an ex or some sort of romantic admirer.  Whoever this person was, I feel pretty confident that they were obsessed with and stalking Holly.  I think Holly probobaly tried to be nice to this person thinking that would get them to leave her alone; however, one can never reason with an obsessed stalker.  I think the person approached her with a weapon and told her that he would kill her right there in the carport/driveway if she didn't go with him into the woods.  This is the only scenario I can see making any sense and could possibly explain the blood on the driveway if that is true and if he maybe superficially wounded her first to show that he was serious.

Holly Bobo, 20, was confronted Wednesday by a man in hunting camouflage who forced her to go wiht him into the woods, said John Mehr, spokesman for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

"We believe he actually had her arm, holding her. We feel she was in fear of her life, so was complying," he told a news conference.

Mehr said investigators "did not see drag marks." He added she was "not forcefully dragged and she's like any other victim, maybe complying with her attacker, but she walked into the woods" outside her Pasrons, Tenn. home.

Bobo's 25-year-old brother watched from inside the home, but did not believe she was being abducted until later. He saw the stranger from behind and believed it was his sister's boyfriend.

Investigators initially said the woman was dragged from near the house's carport into the woods, leading many to ask why the brother had not intervened.

It has not been confirmed that the blood is Bobo’s, but law enforcement did recover her white lunch box nearby. Neither the brother nor the boyfriend are immediate suspects in the case.

In a news conference with Bobo’s parents on Thursday, her father said that he believes the intruder may have been someone close to the family.

The brother has been cleared as well as her boyfriend Drew.  It has been explained that Clint, her brother saw her with a man in camo & he thought it was her boyfriend but when he found blood on the carport he knew something was wrong.   This occurred approx 7:30 in the morning.    At this time there is nothing that would indicate speculating any further in regards to her brother or her boyfriend is fruitful.

Personally, I have a thought that this may be an ex or admirer that was either jealous or a perceived notion that she should have been with him.   To me, it appears she at least knew this person by sight and/or previous encounter....Gut feeling.

I disagree.  Until the truth is revealed regarding the disappearance of Holly Bobo ... speculation is where it is at.

Considering the last person to have seen Holly prior to her disappearance changed his story regarding what he witnessed and ... the changed story does not explain the presence of blood ...  in the process of elimination ... the brother cannot be disregarded as a possible person of interest.  IMO

Where did the original account come from?  My reading reveals that it was not until it was questioned way the brother did not intervene if Holly had been dragged away that the story changed.  However ... the changed story does not explain the blood.

Holly is my focus.  Until the truth is revealed ... this wannabe detective has her suspicions.

Janet


if the blood in the driveway does belong to holly, the sick person that took her is the one who caused the blood.  i don't have time right now to go looking for links but the person who took holly was NOT her brother or boyfriend as per the police.

Holly Bobo, 20, was confronted Wednesday by a man in hunting camouflage who forced her to go wiht him into the woods, said John Mehr, spokesman for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

"We believe he actually had her arm, holding her. We feel she was in fear of her life, so was complying," he told a news conference.

Mehr said investigators "did not see drag marks." He added she was "not forcefully dragged and she's like any other victim, maybe complying with her attacker, but she walked into the woods" outside her Pasrons, Tenn. home.

Bobo's 25-year-old brother watched from inside the home, but did not believe she was being abducted until later. He saw the stranger from behind and believed it was his sister's boyfriend.

Investigators initially said the woman was dragged from near the house's carport into the woods, leading many to ask why the brother had not intervened.

Her brother, said Mehr, "had reasons to believe [the man] was not an attacker."

The officer said that neither Bobo's brother nor her boyfriend were suspects. "We are confident of that," he said.

thank you Capp :)

If the perp is a stalker, I am wondering if maybe the lunch box was stolen from out of her car previously and left in the woods eight miles away as a distraction.

Well, the thing about the lunch box strikes me because my first instinct is that there had to be some type of vehicle used by her abductor for it to have landed approx 8 miles away.    The second thing to determine would be was that vehicle used during the commission of the abduction or after to cause the diversion you mentioned.  Having said that, I remain mindful that the direction from her home & the location of where they found the lunch box has not been disclosed publicly.

I'm so grateful to see this disappearance being covered at SM.

Outside of Memphis, this paper (The Jackson Sun) is the closest daily to Holly's hometown, I think. (Jackson is about 35 miles from Darden.) The following is in today's paper:

http://www.jacksonsun.com/article/20110417/NEWS01/104170324/Decatur-County-Hundreds-volunteer-hunt-missing-woman?odyssey=tab|topnews|text|FRONTPAGE (http://www.jacksonsun.com/article/20110417/NEWS01/104170324/Decatur-County-Hundreds-volunteer-hunt-missing-woman?odyssey=tab|topnews|text|FRONTPAGE)

Great article from the Jax Sun, I went to HS in Jackson and lived there for a few more yrs before I moved to the Memphis burbs, it's about an hour away and close to Beech Lake, and the TN River and Natchez Trace State Park which IIRC is about 10-15 minutes away and heavily vegatated (if that is a word). I was touched to see so many out searching for her, searching thru the night in some cases and my dad told me they even let some of the HS's out so the older students could search. Now, pls God bring her home safely ::MonkeyAngel::

Why was it originally believed that Holly was dragged into the woods?  Why did the story change?

In the process of elimination ... why was the brother dismissed as a person of interest from the getgo?

When I consider the blood and ... the brother's account that now implies there was no altercation ... it does not add up.

Police Find Lunch Box, Blood as Search for Whitney Duncan’s Cousin Holly Bobo Continues

<snipped>

It was originally believed that Bobo was forcibly dragged into the woods near her home by a man in camouflage. It has since been brought to light by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation that she was led by her arm or hand, and complied because she may have been scared for her life.

Bobo, a 20-year-old nursing student at University of Tennessee Martin, was getting ready to leave for school when she was taken during a home invasion around 7:30AM. Her older brother, who witnessed the encounter, mistook the abductor for Bobo’s boyfriend — but when he went outside and spotted blood on the ground, he called police. It has not been confirmed that the blood is Bobo’s, but law enforcement did recover her white lunch box nearby. Neither the brother nor the boyfriend are immediate suspects in the case.

'New Areas Of Interest' In Bobo Search
TBI: $25,000 Reward Offered For Safe Return Of Holly Bobo
UPDATED: 11:58 am CDT April 17, 2011

http://www.wsmv.com/news/27532916/detail.html

Searches resumed Sunday for evidence in the disappearance of Holly Bobo.
Authorities tell Channel 4 that volunteers were called back to the local fairgrounds after investigators discovered "new areas of interest." One of those new areas is Natchez Trace State Park. At least 350 people were combing that area alone.
 ::snipping2::
Officials with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation have scheduled a 2 p.m. news conference Sunday.
On Saturday, TBI officials said they have received tips about the 20-year-old nursing student's disappearance from all around the U.S. Authorities said Friday that searchers have found some items belonging to Bobo.
 ::snipping2::
Police said they found Bobo's white lunch box by a creek about eight miles from her home. Authorities also said searchers found some other items belonging to Bobo, but didn't specify what the items were.
"We've got a new place of interest," said Lt. Brad Wilbanks of the Tennessee Highway Patrol "We're going to keep looking. Yes, ma'am. No one's slowing down."

Color me confused.  Is this sloppy reporting or did the brother say this?  If it is the BF perhaps he will care about her.


::snipping2::

The nursing student was last seen by her brother early Wednesday morning who only saw the man from behind and believed it was Bobo's boyfriend. Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Special Agent John Mehr said authorities do not believe she went willingly.

Seahorse - the brother THOUGHT it was the boyfriend based upon how he looked from behind.  It was NOT the boyfriend.   The brother and the boyfriend are not considered suspects at all.


Klaas,


Thank-you for setting me straight.   

Yeah but NOW in the presser they say nobody has been ruled out as a suspect.  So I just don't know.

Tennessee Nursing Student Dragged into Woods by Camouflaged Abductor
Holly Bobo's Brother and Mother Watched as She was Dragged into the Woods
April 14, 2011


<snipped>

Holly Bobo was dragged "across the carport of her home… toward a wooded area" in the town of Parsons on Wednesday, according to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. Both Bobo's mother and 25-year-old brother watched the woman being abducted and called 911.

John Mehr, spokesman for the TBI, would not say if family members tried to intervene or if they were suspected in the abduction.

NTSP and the TN River were my two greatest worries when I heard about this abduction, NTSP is HUGE.....very hard to really search thoroughly without professional search teams and alot of time. I wonder if they have the local auto parts stores alerted as I read on another site, my ex BF's family owns all the Motor Parts and Bearing stores, IIRC there is one in Parsons, Scott's Hill and many of the smaller towns that Auto Zone wouldn't be interested in, they should watch for someone wanting sea covers, floor mats etc -if she was bleeding he may want these to replace and cover the evidence.  ::MonkeyNoNo::

I cannot comprehend why the brother and boyfriend have both been ruled out as persons of interest in the disappearance of Holly Bobo.

The person that the brother allegedly witnessed was wearing camouflage.  Photos revealed that articles of clothing often worn by Holly and her boyfriend were camouflage.

Sheriff: No suspects in abduction of Tenn. student
updated 4/15/2011 4:04:45 PM ET


PARSONS, Tenn. — The sheriff in Parsons, Tenn., says there are no suspects in the abduction of Holly Bobo, a nursing student who has been missing since she was allegedly dragged from her home Wednesday.

Bobo's older brother told authorities he saw a man wearing camouflage drag her from her home toward the woods. Several law enforcement agencies and hundreds of volunteers have searched the surrounding woods and fields.

Speaking Friday on NBC's TODAY, Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt said, "We have talked to every person that we know... Everybody has been interviewed and talked to and we do not have a suspect at this time."

When asked how Bobo's boyfriend, who reportedly goes turkey hunting in the woods wearing camouflage, fit into the case, Wyatt reiterated that there was currently no suspect.

Holly Bobo Followed Kidnapper into Tennessee Woods in 'Fear of Her Life'
Investigators Rule Out Boyfriend and Brother as Suspects
April 15, 2011

 
Bobo's 25-year-old brother watched from inside the home, but did not believe she was being abducted until later. He saw the stranger from behind and believed it was his sister's boyfriend.

Investigators initially said the woman was dragged from near the house's carport into the woods, leading many to ask why the brother had not intervened.

Her brother, said Mehr, "had reasons to believe [the man] was not an attacker."

The officer said that neither Bobo's brother nor her boyfriend were suspects. "We are confident of that," he said.

Officials said today that they want people in the area to recall any unusual behavior of a man fitting the suspect's description, such as someone who has missed work or appointments and acting with increased anxiety or stress.

Officials confirmed that blood was found at Bobo's residence in Darden and has been sent to a lab in Memphis.

Authorities believe the suspect is not just on foot but have no description yet of a vehicle to look for.

Officials are searching areas north through Natchez Trace and eastward and in the Interstate 40 area.

Officials also say Bobo's brother and boyfriend are not ruled out in the investigation. "We're leaving all options open," Helm said.

Janet, there is no need to reiterate the above articles repetitively, unless and until the Texas Bureau of Investigations retracts that they are NOT suspects there is no reason whatsoever to continue to suggest that they should be.   Obviously, there are reasons why they have been cleared.

The fact that Holly's boyfriend hunts is no biggie, so did she.

This is Holly & Drew

I tend to agree just to be cautious but I am pretty sure the BF was at work at Cuba Landing from what I have heard from Jackson friends that are searching and hyper-vigilant.

Kristin Helm with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said during a press conference today that investigators are following more than 250 leads in the search for Holly Bobo, of Decatur County.

Capp~this link might work better, it's Memphis' paper..

http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2011/apr/17/search-expanded-abducted-west-tenn-woman/

PARSONS, Tenn -- In the Wednesday abduction of 20-year-old Holly Bobo, residents of rural Parsons, Tenn., need to look among their own, say officials with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

TBI spokeswoman Kirsten Helm said citizens should think back to between 7:40 and 8 a.m. Who was wearing camouflage on the morning she was led, presumably by force, into the woods from her parents home on Swan Johnson Road?

 ::snipping2::

Helm said authorities decided today not to eliminate anyone from a potential list of suspects, including Bobo's 25-year-old brother, Clint, who was present at the time of the attack, and her boyfriend, both previously ruled out.

"Both her brother and her boyfriend have been nothing but cooperative," Helm said again, "but we can't afford not to keep our minds open. Every detail counts."

 ::snipping2::

I think it's just the smartest thing to do, maybe they have an idea who this man is and want to make him feel more comfortable?? Clueless at this point (as usual)

Lt Brad Wilbanks of the Decauter Sheriff's Dept in the video referred to Mehr of TBI clearing up rumors including "dragged," the brother, the boyfriend "clearing the brother and boyfriend as suspects," said the anchor as the Lt nodded yes.   The "lunch purse" was stated as "positive identification" and that there was blood found at the home "outside the door there," Lt Brad Wilbanks.   Lt Wilbanks also stated that other items were found by searchers including duct tape & it was bagged to be tested & also stated that TBI "Agent Mehrs mnay elude to that today or tomorrow."

LT BRAD WILBANKS quote of the day "Yesterday I learned a new meaning why they call Tennessee the volunteer state."

Good heavens, two TBI agents and two different stmts, again GRRRRR

Very true about the volunteer state though

I would go by what TBI Agent Mehr states.

PARSONS, Tenn -- In the Wednesday abduction of 20-year-old Holly Bobo, residents of rural Parsons, Tenn., need to look among their own, say officials with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

TBI spokeswoman Kirsten Helm said citizens should think back to between 7:40 and 8 a.m. Who was wearing camouflage on the morning she was led, presumably by force, into the woods from her parents home on Swan Johnson Road?

 ::snipping2::

Helm said authorities decided today not to eliminate anyone from a potential list of suspects, including Bobo's 25-year-old brother, Clint, who was present at the time of the attack, and her boyfriend, both previously ruled out.

"Both her brother and her boyfriend have been nothing but cooperative," Helm said again, "but we can't afford not to keep our minds open. Every detail counts."

 ::snipping2::

I think it's just the smartest thing to do, maybe they have an idea who this man is and want to make him feel more comfortable?? Clueless at this point (as usual)

Mark my words, it doesnt matter what was said regarding not excluding either of them they will not become suspects.  The sheer fact that the lead in the case TBI Agent Mehrs was so adamant in his statement yesterday points to the fact that they have no reason to suspect either of them in foul play, despite what they may have decided to announce today according to Helms, it should be noted that neither were mentioned specifically in today's presser by TBI Ageny Mehr.   I will also go on the record to state that this family is going thru torture & unlike other convoluted cases that we've all followed there is NOTHING indicating why people need to continue suspecting her own brother of some sort of plot to commit a crime.

In the most recent press conference ... I can assume that the words of the official TBI spokesperson for the Holly Bobo investigation were derived from a foundation of knowledge.  Helm did not just pull her words out of thin air.

Anyways ... I am not implying that either the brother or the boyfriend are involved in wrongdoing but ... in the process of elimination ... I believe for revealed reasons both should be investigated as persons of interest prior to automatically being ruled out.

Seahorse, I can only take from that request that a vehicle of some sort had to have been used considering the distance from her home to where evidence (confirmed for sure her lunch purse) was found.   I'm thinking it also could be an ATV versus a car or truck so that shouldnt be ruled out.   If that is the case, they are looking for a tip of someone that may be feverishly looking to wash away and/or replace parts to get rid of evidence.

Ruled out of what then?   Its pretty obvious that LE has indeed been investigating & they seem rather confident that they are A) being very cooperative B) their whereabouts confirmed C) not finding a reason for them to be elevated to a POI or suspect.

These words weren't pulled out of thin air either:   Her brother, said Mehr, "had reasons to believe [the man] was not an attacker," and did not call 911 until he saw blood outside.The officer said that neither Bobo's brother nor her boyfriend were suspects.

Now their house itself has a long driveway with what looks to be a wishing well to the right side entrance.   Its a ranch (1360 sq ft) rustic exterior & has a slight L shape to it, probably where the carport is.    I'll look for a shot of the house itself.

I posted the tax property record early in this thread (try around pg 3 or 4)

Holly Bobo Search: Hundreds of Volunteers Comb the Woods
April 17, 2011


"We got lots of volunteers and we're continuing to do searches throughout the county in other areas and looking any type of leads that could help us in bringing Holly back," Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Special Agent John Mehr said.

<snipped>

She was confronted Wednesday by a man in hunting camouflage who forced her to go with him into the woods, Mehr said.

<snipped>

Bobo's 25-year-old brother Clint watched from inside the home, but did not believe she was being abducted until later. He saw the stranger from behind and believed it was his sister's boyfriend.

Her brother, said Mehr, "had reasons to believe [the man] was not an attacker," and did not call 911 until he saw blood outside.

Holly Bobo Search: Hundreds of Volunteers Comb the Woods
April 17, 2011


"We got lots of volunteers and we're continuing to do searches throughout the county in other areas and looking any type of leads that could help us in bringing Holly back," Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Special Agent John Mehr said.

<snipped>

She was confronted Wednesday by a man in hunting camouflage who forced her to go with him into the woods, Mehr said.

<snipped>

Bobo's 25-year-old brother Clint watched from inside the home, but did not believe she was being abducted until later. He saw the stranger from behind and believed it was his sister's boyfriend.

Her brother, said Mehr, "had reasons to believe [the man] was not an attacker," and did not call 911 until he saw blood outside.

Janet, literally anywhere.......that area is sparsely populated and there is extremely thick vegatation everywhere, duck blinds where they could hide them, a tremendous amount of water, the TN River, and tons of smaller bodies of water, marinas, you name it...it gets even worse once you get into the Natchez Trace SP.

20 Year Old Holly Bobo Still Missing in Parsons, TN … The Search Continues Natchez Trace State Park
http://scaredmonkeys.com/2011/04/17/20-year-old-holly-bobo-still-missing-in-parsons-tn-the-search-continues-natchez-trace-state-park/

Since the abductor obviously knew the schedule of Holly Bobo and her family one has to wonder just how planned in advance this kidnapping was. Did the abductor have a vehicle waiting at a location after driving an ATV? The get away trail had to be known in advance. Or does this individual have a location in the middle of no where in the woods already staked out, ie a cave, etc?

I certainly pray that she is still safe. One has to have a good feeling that she is because it would hardly seem that this man would have gone through all this planning to kill her. It would have been easy to have just done that when she walked to her car.

The police make a good observation for all people to think and remember who in any business, school or any place was not accounted for at the time Holly was abducted.  Any one who ones an ATV in the area needs to be questioned.

Parsons, TN -

(WMC-TV) - At a press conference Sunday, TBI officials said they have found items that may help them in the search for missing nursing student Holly Bobo.

Authorities are asking for help from people in the Parsons community as the search for Bobo continues.

The TBI and other law enforcement agencies asked residents during a news conference to take notice of anyone whose whereabouts were unaccounted for Wednesday morning when Bobo went missing.

Officials said to be on the lookout for changes in behavior, such as missing work Wednesday through Friday. They also said to look for someone who may have excessively cleaned or sold a vehicle or all-terrain vehicle.

I agree with that, but it was also reported on the 15th ......and Mehr is the one IIRC that originally stated she was dragged across the carport too, but then yesterday he denied even mentioning the blood? It's just bizarre, maybe someone needs to remind him what he stated from day to day to press...

 ::snipping2::


The TBI had previously said Bobo was dragged from her home near Parsons, about 100 miles northeast of Memphis. On Friday, Mehr clarified that she was being held by the hand or arm, but not in a forceful manner.

 ::snipping2::

TBI officials have said Bobo’s 25-year-old brother saw his sister outside the house with a man before she was kidnapped at around 7:30 a.m. But he only saw the man from the back, and he thought he was her boyfriend.

He did not become suspicious until he went outside and saw blood. Then he called 911.

 ::snipping2::

That video is a direct contradiction to this media article and it's just becoming incredibly confusing with all the she was dragged, NO she wasn't..her brother found blood, NO he didn't report that. I know he's tired and stressed but it just adds to the rumor mill when he contradicts himself

i think the perp had an atv out in the woods behind holly's home and used that to transport her out, either that or he had a vehicle parked on a road that could be accessed through the woods and walked with her through the woods a short distance to where his vehicle was parked.  i'm wondering what roads back up to the wooded area around her house and if anyone has reported seeing any suspicious vehicles parked near these areas early that morning. 

have there been any reports of dogs being used to track holly's scent from her home? i would assume this had been done early on but i don't think results have been released to the public yet

yea that's what i would think.  it seems like they are focusing the searches more on the large park area where the lunch box was found.  maybe they tracked her scent to a roadway and then lost the scent if she was placed in a vehicle?

Where would the vehicle of the abductor be hidden.  Could it have been accessed from the woods that the abductor was observed entering with Holly by her brother?

Janet, literally anywhere.......that area is sparsely populated and there is extremely thick vegatation everywhere, duck blinds where they could hide them, a tremendous amount of water, the TN River, and tons of smaller bodies of water, marinas, you name it...it gets even worse once you get into the Natchez Trace SP. And yes it could have been accessed from the woods easily from my memory of that area.

Logically, that had to occur if indeed the lunch purse & other items are being found as reported approx 8 miles away from her house.

I also heard the same rumor but nothing has confirmed it to be true.   That being said, I did pay attention carefully to what the father said referencing that it had to be someone that knew their schedule & it sounds like she had to have at least recognized if not knew her abductor....so yes Ive been anticipating hearing if this rumor has any truth to it & continuing to look into it

The kidnapper is believed to be acting with increased stress, and is not believed to have any usual behavior or routine. Holly's father, Dana Bobo, said Thursday that he believes the man who snatched his daughter was familiar with the family's routine, according to Fox 17 reports.

Bobo's brother and boyfriend were previously reported as not being suspects, but according to Helm, this has changed.

Helm also said both Holly Bobo's brother, Clint, and her boyfriend have been officially cleared as suspects.

i think the perp had an atv out in the woods behind holly's home and used that to transport her out, either that or he had a vehicle parked on a road that could be accessed through the woods and walked with her through the woods a short distance to where his vehicle was parked.  i'm wondering what roads back up to the wooded area around her house and if anyone has reported seeing any suspicious vehicles parked near these areas early that morning. 

have there been any reports of dogs being used to track holly's scent from her home? i would assume this had been done early on but i don't think results have been released to the public yet

I saw mention of dogs today but they didn't say what kind of dogs.  I'm assuming tracking.

yea that's what i would think.  it seems like they are focusing the searches more on the large park area where the lunch box was found.  maybe they tracked her scent to a roadway and then lost the scent if she was placed in a vehicle?

Both tracking and cadaver are probably being utilized.

this is definitely a possibility

That is always a possibility.   LE can and does under certain circumstances make statements strategically publicly. 

That is exactly what I was trying to state the first time a few pages back....not as well obviously (must have been the margarita!

So, that has both Helms and Mehr stating both in the past two days...I think according to the rest contained in those articles that there is a strategy in place based on information known & not being shared to the public at this time.

I would agree. I would compare this heavily wooded area with trails and trails that lead to dirt roads to those that have ever hiked the Appalachian trail from GA to ME. Also the areas that I grew up with hunting & fishing in ME where there were an entire network of trails and logging trails that I could have literally travelled 100's of miles and gone into Canada without ever seeing a paved road.


I think this guy had this abduction very well planned.

Snipped..

The kidnapper’s movement and travel in the community has led authorities to believe that Bobo and the kidnapper are in a vehicle.

"He's most likely a resident in this community," Helm said, "and this is a tight-knitted community where people know each other."

he kidnapper is believed to be acting with increased stress, and is not believed to have any usual behavior or routine. Holly's father, Dana Bobo, said Thursday that he believes the man who snatched his daughter was familiar with the family's routine, according to Fox 17 reports.

Bobo's brother and boyfriend were previously reported as not being suspects, but according to Helm, this has changed.

I am thankful that investigations are not conducted on "gut instincts".  My "gut instinct" over the years has often been wrong in regards to the outcome of missing person cases  that have been discussed on this website.

In the process of elimination ... I firmly believe that those with a close connection with Holly Bobo should be investigated prior to being ruled out.

If I were Holly's brother or boyfriend ... I would be pleading that I was given a polygraph so investigators could eliminate of any wrongdoing and move on.

snipped..Article and video

PARSONS, Tenn.- Sunday, investigators may have a better sense of  who is behind the disappearance of a missing college student from Decatur County.

Sunday was the Sabbath, but certainly no day of rest for the Bobo family or the volunteer searchers at the fair- grounds. Sunday was day five in the search for Holly Bobo, 20. Investigators are still calling their effort a rescue instead of a recovery. They say they have no evidence to believe the contrary at this point in the investigation.

Just thinking Outloud..

I don't think the Boyfriend or Brother are involved. They know what they drive.. Also short time when brother called 911 and when Holly went missing.. One more thing.. The Boyfriend would of had to account for his time during the abduction also they would of talked to him not long after Police went to the home that morning.JMO

The kidnapper is believed to be acting with increased stress, and is not believed to have any usual behavior or routine. Holly's father, Dana Bobo, said Thursday that he believes the man who snatched his daughter was familiar with the family's routine, according to Fox 17 reports.

Bobo's brother and boyfriend were previously reported as not being suspects, but according to Helm, this has changed.

Helm also said both Holly Bobo's brother, Clint, and her boyfriend have been officially cleared as suspects.

http://www.newschannel5.com/story/14460508/family-friends-continue-search-for-missing-woman

The first link is from today, the second from yesterday so who knows...this creep could be out searching with them, wouldn't be the first time and if they state this, maybe he will slip up, worth a shot anyway IMO, anything to bring her home safely

The words "previously reported" from today's press conference implies there is no contradiction.  It would appear that between yeterday and today ... investigators have determined that the brother and boyfriend should not be automatically ruled out as persons of interest.

Janet

I'll state my opinion again, I dont think it matters one bit if they are or are not included publicly due to the fact that my gut instinct is telling me neither has anything to do with her disappearance.

I am thankful that investigations are not conducted on "gut instincts".  My "gut instinct" over the years has often been wrong in regards to the outcome of missing person cases  that have been discussed on this website.

In the process of elimination ... I firmly believe that those with a close connection with Holly Bobo should be investigated prior to being ruled out.

If I were Holly's brother or boyfriend ... I would be pleading that I was given a polygraph so investigators could eliminate of any wrongdoing and move on.

Janet

Dont be too sure about that & I dont mean that argumentatively either, but an accomplished detective in addition to their investigative training possesses a combination of the ability to follow the evidence, being instinctive, being a logical thinker, able to react quickly to changing circumstances as well as capable of using sound judgment.

No one said that they weren't investigating every one including family, however the question being if any of them will ever be officially named a POI or suspect is another matter.   A person being cleared of any wrongdoing is not ever solely based on the results of a polygraph.

I'll choose to ignore the tone of reference.

I notice after reviewing the map of the home area.. There is a lake behind the home that doesn't have much woods or brushes to the lake... Where you most likely would have no problem walking through it to get to the lake..Around the right side of lake toward road you can walk through some woods that leads to small area with less woods and brushes where you can park a vehicle.. And then with out any problems drive out to the road.. I am 0n a laptop while my computer gets fixed and  can not do a screen shot of the area. I will try to post the link.. Edit to fix typo.  MB

If what the brother is revealing is the truth ... could it be that Holly Bobo was taken out of the area in a vehicle a short time after she was observed entering the woods?  This gives me hope that she is still alive.

Janet


Unless it is revealed otherwise ... I am going to embrace this thought.

My prayers are with Holly's family.  The not-knowing must be devastating.

Good Night All

Sure is.   

I make a habit of having my cell in my hand or extremely accessible, most of my handbags have convenient outside pockets or I put a cell cover on a chain attached to the strap ring.   If I dont have a handbag for a quick trip, I hook a small wristlet type mini bag to the most far right front belt loop (front of hip).    I also (especially in the evening) ten to walk from where I am to my car with my keys spread between my fingers so that if I have to take a jab to the throat or eyeballs I'm ready.   I also have a whistle on my key chain & mini flashlight attached.   A mini spray bottle of hair spray or something that will sting the eye harshly (Mace laws vary in each US state) could come in handy.   Nothing for nothing,  if traveling alone I have a baseball bat in the car & if in danger I wouldnt hesitate to use it if I could get to it.   For those in relatively good physical health, it wouldnt hurt to take a self-defense class...you'd be surprised even if small framed how you can protect yourself.

Just thinking Outloud..

I don't think the Boyfriend or Brother are involved. They know what they drive.. Also short time when brother called 911 and when Holly went missing.. One more thing.. The Boyfriend would of had to account for his time during the abduction also they would of talked to him not long after Police went to the home that morning.JMO

Totally agree with you. Somethings I would like to know. Did she have a cell phone with her?
What if someone came out of the woods bleeding and saying someone else was hurt in the woods, would she have gone willingly with him? I would think if she knew the person, yes, if she didn't know the person, I would think she would call for help.

IDK. It will depend if he had a hunting knife or some other weapon he could of threaten her with if she screamed. Might depend to if he did something to quiet her..

One other thing before I get busy for the day.  

There is an interesting comment on the facebook page about Holly.  Supposedly her "friend list" has lessened by one person since all this happened.  I have not idea if that's true nor if it's significant...I'm certainly not computer savvy enough to do that back trace, etc. but thought some of you might be interested.

Whew, thanks so much, Klaas! Guess it's obvious I'm back, huh? Still as useful as a screen door on a submarine with this technology...

I am from rural TN and wish I had the health to go search today.

I can, however, help provide some links to local media and can personally assure folks on the board that John (TBI) is top-notch. If anything sounds the least bit convoluted, I know it's because of strategy and that alone. I'd trust him with my life...he's that fine a man and excellent in his profession. This is not his first rodeo, so to speak.  He's extremely intelligent and weighs his words carefully.

I don't see much on the site right now but here's the link for the local TV station in the area. It's the only real local station with newscasts (ABC affliate) outside of the Memphis/Nashville areas.  Outside of Memphis and Jackson, west TN is primarily rural...mostly little towns with family farms, etc.  It's not your metro tv coverage but it's all we have. (They have really improved their website though.  News stories are usually up within the same day they occur now...progress for sure.)

(I hope I post this snap of his comments right)! if not I can try again.

he is mad at LE, he states on APRIL 14 he cant wait to hold his GF in his arms.. on all the comments below his No one knows who he is talking about. His name is Blake Hickerson

He is very negative on all his comments.. seems depressed.his attitude seems a little crazy In my opinion.

2.  Has the brother and/or boyfriend spoken to the media?  Has the brother and/or boyfriend retained attorneys?

3.  Does the boyfriend come from a family of influence?

4.  Although the boyfriend's identity is out there ... why has his name not been revealed in the media?

5.  Is it possible that Holly's brother was correct his initial assumption regarding who his sister's abductor was?

if it's true that an holly has a restraining order on an ex, the police were definitely aware of this probobaly immediately after she was reported missing and probobaly have interviewed this person or are trying to locate them to interview them if they hadn't already... again if the rumor is true.

Hi Janet, I agree it is very confusing on what happened and how it is not clear on the brother, why it took so long for the police to be called. and of course why LE now says now that they are not ruled out. I feel if the Boyfriend is accounted for and he is helping to search he is not involved, the kidnapper apparently on the run. now if she had an ex with a restraining order it must have been about a year ago so would he all the sudden do something? shes been with the current BF for a while according to his brother. Im confused dont know what to think on who took her. It could be someone they totally didnt know.

1)  I've not seen any media reports with regard to when anyone outside the family last spoke to or saw Holly.

2)  I've not seen or heard the boyfriend or the brother speak to the media nor have I heard they've retained an attorney.

3)  I do not believe the boyfriend comes from a family of influence.  That's entirely my opinion, though.

4)  I think the media is respecting the privacy of the boyfriend and not releasing his name.  He's probably about 19 years old and doesn't have a record, as far as I can tell.

5)  Anything is possible.

The boyfriend's brother is posting on his fb.  His name is Derek.  Same last name as the boyfriend.

thanks that makes me feel with all the confusion out there that the Boyfriend is not involved at all. I see alot of rumors that she did have a restaining order against an ex for threatning to kill her. that she had 2 ex's but no info on who they are. I bet by now LE knows who it is.


A few days!!  Had Holly and Drew broken up recently?

Holly Bobo: FBI says "led away" not dragged through carport

So, after much digging, I have come across this information.  Mind you, I have no verification, but many times, information like this comes out to be true.  This information make more sense than anything else that is out there.

According to the source, Holly had two ex-boyfriends.  One from a few days ago and the other, she had a restraining order against, because he threatened to kill her.  Holly left the house to go to school and her brother heard her arguing with her ex-boyfriend who was dressed in camo, outside the home.  He saw them both walking towards the wooded area of the yard, and he went back to what he was doing.  About an hour later he noticed his sister's car was still in the driveway.  He called his parents, a friend of Holly's and then the ex-boyfriend, and then the police.

I read that too and started to think maybe the boyfriend was involved..and especially after LE changed it to they are not ruled out. so I guess he could be the ex? maybe the current BF was the one with the restraining order?
wish we knew. we dont know how long he has been accounted for and where he was that day.it would be odd he is helping if he did something to her but not impossible.

I know beyond a doubt that I could identify my sons ... my SIL and ... my nephews if they were standing on our driveway not facing me.  Why did the brother assume that the guy with his sister on the morning of April 13th was her boyfriend?  I can't let this go.

I don't know how close Clint was to Holly when this took place.  I can understand a scenario in which he looked out, saw Holly and a guy in camo and assumed it was her boyfriend.  I cannot understand a scenario in which he looked out because he heard her scream and then watched as she was dragged/led to the woods by someone he assumed was her boyfriend.  I don't know if that was just *really* bad reporting or if that's what happened.  If Clint did assume it was Drew and he did see her led/dragged into the woods, then that leads me to believe that Holly and Drew had a somewhat volatile relationship; one in which it didn't surprise Drew to hear her scream and be led off/dragged off.  I find that somewhat troubling in itself.  *IF* that's even what happened.

I don't do Facebook.

Were there any entries in the Facebook of either Drew or Holly in the "few days" prior the disappearance regarding the relationship?

Holly's facebook is private, so I can't see any of her posts.  I'm not sure if her relationship status would be hidden since her wall is or if she just didn't list herself as "in a relationship".  She does, however, have a picture of her and Drew as her profile pic. 

Drew's facebook is open.  His last posting was March 29th and it was nothing to do with his relationship with Holly. He is a somewhat sporadic FB user.  He did change his relationship status to "in a relationship with Holly Bobo" on August 21st, 2010.

Looks like Drew became FB friends with Clint Bobo around Marchish 2010 and then he became FB friends with Holly around Aprilish 2010.  He doesn't post anything that looks like he's been in trouble or anything like that.  He hunts/fishes, rides dirtbikes, etc.

Yes, she does & so does he, to date there is no knowledge that they did break up at all & are dating for approx one year.  THERE ARE RUMORS that have not been confirmed by family nor LE that there is ONE EX that has a restraining order.

Yesterday I stated that I was aware of her boyfriend and his brother's last name.  I'm aware that the boyfriend's brother has been posting that they and friends have been searching for Holly & people have been responding back to him, but please remember that LE has NOT announced their last name & they havent chosen to be interviewed on their own as of yet.

Regarding posting random persons as "possible" persons of interest off of social network pages, if you feel you have a tip, turn it in to LE.

this is a baffling case to me..what are your thoughts?


Cookie, my thoughts are just as muddled and baffled as everyone else's.  However, I will remark on a few things just from knowing the area and "culture"...

I did not grow up in Holly's county/community but did grow up in a TN town just a county or so over of about the same size and definitely the same atmosphere and live close to her area still.  These are not just my opinions but my guesses and impressions and in no particular order...

It is not unusual to mistakenly identify someone from behind when they are dressed in camoflauge especially when your mind is "expecting" that someone to be who you think it is. I find no reason to find the brother's initial impression suspect. That particular style of dress is so normal around here and certainly would not cause any alarm. It doesn't matter if it's hunting season or not, camo is designer fabric in the South in any season.

From what I've read about Holly and her personality and from what I know about Southern people and their graciousness and such, I can easily believe someone's speculation that she may have believed a ruse that someone was hurt and needed her help. Even if he was someone who was an ex and she believed (from the blood which I believe will be his) that he had been in the woods nearby and there had been an accident and someone needed her help, I believe she would naturally respond in a helping manner. Remember it was 7:30 in the morning...someone comes to your door needing help....around here your first reaction is to help.  We don't tend to have that guardedness that someone living in a city would have.  I think that is why she didn't scream out, etc. Although it's been said there was a bit of an argument suspected it may have been no more than her suggesting she call an ambulance and him declining asking her to assess first.  (Believe it or not, that also wouldn't have necessarily caused her anxiety since she is a nursing student plus many still worry about unneeded ambulance costs and/or er visits especially in a rural economy.) I think it's very possible that she was not scared nor alarmed as she went into the woods but only realized the danger after she was never taken to the scene of an accident, etc.

I hesitate to even write the above because it may sound as though we don't think around here. It's not that at all.  It's just that we still have that naive trust in people and never suspect that evil will come knocking on our doors...especially if it is in the body of a person you know.  I do believe it is someone she knew because that even makes it more plausible to me.

I have no knowledge whatsoever of the guy she dates or his family but knowing the area and the people, I feel very confident in telling you there is no influence, etc. there.  High society (as in influence, etc.) is pretty much non-existent in the area where she lives and where I grew up.  Everyone goes to the public school, attends church with each other, etc. 

There are probably less than 26,000 in the whole county there with around 2700 or so in her hometown. It doesn't surprise me at all that so many people are turning out to search. It's the way around here...when your neighbor needs help, you help. It doesn't matter your political or religious views, etc.  All that matters is that you are healthy enough to participate and if not, you participate by prayer because this area truly believes that prayer works.

We are a hard-working, God-loving people who help our neighbors and expect a miracle.

i agree, if a mod tells me i can post the link i will post the link but i don't want to get in trouble.  i know the police are def aware of it though

Looks like Drew became FB friends with Clint Bobo around Marchish 2010 and then he became FB friends with Holly around Aprilish 2010.  He doesn't post anything that looks like he's been in trouble or anything like that.  He hunts/fishes, rides dirtbikes, etc. 

Thanks New Monkey

It would be interesting to know if a breakup did happened in the "few days" prior to Holly's disappearance.

Holly Bobo: FBI says "led away" not dragged through carport

So, after much digging, I have come across this information.  Mind you, I have no verification, but many times, information like this comes out to be true.  This information make more sense than anything else that is out there.

According to the source, Holly had two ex-boyfriends.  One from a few days ago and the other, she had a restraining order against, because he threatened to kill her.  Holly left the house to go to school and her brother heard her arguing with her ex-boyfriend who was dressed in camo, outside the home.  He saw them both walking towards the wooded area of the yard, and he went back to what he was doing.  About an hour later he noticed his sister's car was still in the driveway.  He called his parents, a friend of Holly's and then the ex-boyfriend, and then the police.

The reporter acknowledges that her/his info as not been confirmed.  That is reason I stated that it would be interesting to know whether a breakup had occured in the "few days" prior Holly Bobo's disappearance.

Mark Gwyn Director of Bureau of Investigation is on scene, he is speaking on Foxnews Cable now.

He said that it is too early to rule out anyone.  Until all the evidence is analyzed "you cant rule out anyone."  He didnt really offer anything new but I'm thinking he will be at the presser scheduled for 3PM this afternoon (as posted by Nunley in my earlier post ^)

I share Whitney's frustration because in the end I'm confident Holly's brother and present boyfriend will be cleared.

In terms of the tires people have been talking about on craigslist that are for sale (i am not going to post the link because it has the posters phone number on it but if you go on craigslist for Jackson, tennesse and look through the for sale classifieds and type in atv in the search box you should find it)...

there was an ad placed on 4/17 at 12:33 am for new atv tires, the poster says he "need em gone"

this has been passed on to the police already by numerous people but this is what people were referring too when they talk about the tires for sale

if you paste the # into google the way it is it will show other stuff he is selling

Tennessee investigator makes plea for help in Bobo case
Mon Apr 18, 2011 1:02pm EDT


(Reuters) - Tennessee's top investigator on Monday made a public plea for leads in the apparent abduction of a 20-year-old nursing student Holly Bobo five days ago as more than 1,000 volunteers searched for her.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is checking more than 250 leads in the disappearance of Bobo, who is a cousin of country artist Whitney Duncan, Director Mark Gwyn said in an appearance on ABC's "Good Morning America."

"The next analysis of a piece of evidence could be a key in solving this particular incident," Gwyn said. "I can tell you that we have not eliminated anyone from this case."

The lunch purse & it specifically refers to the blood being analyzed:  "When he went outside later, he saw blood and called police. The blood is being analyzed."    I'm sure the duct tape with reported blonde hair that was found is also being analyzed.

In an attempt to catch up I just jumped into this thread. So forgive me if the topic of family polygraphs has already been broached.

There seems to be growing questions (not necessarily suspicions) both on Fox News (Sun  & Mon) and elsewhere about whether LE has been able to absolutely clear the brother and/or the boyfriend.

I think it would not only help the investigation (to sharpen focus) but would minimize any growing suspicions if everyone took a polygraph - i.e., mother, father, brother and boyfriend. I think Marc Klaas would agree.

It is especially important to determine if the brother's report is accurate and totally truthful. Otherwise the abduction and/or homicide could have occurred at any time or any place - including inside the family home. We need to try an eliminate any suspicion along those lines.

Your thoughts?

Considering it is all about the truth encompassing the disappearance of Holly ... I agree 100%.  In the process of elimination ... if I were a family member or the boyfriend ... I would be making a path to the door of the LE station pleading for a polygraph so the investigation could move past me as a person of interest.

Welcome SD! - as far as I know nothing has been mentioned about polygraphs.  As of yesterday they are saying nobody is being ruled out as a suspect.

i can definitely see how this could be beneficial, my personal opinion is that the police and investigators have someone on their radar that they are looking at closely and are kind of using the media at this point to their advantage.  i think there is a strategy in place so maybe the person responsible starts to feel comfortable that maybe they will get away with their crime. i don't think the person responsible is holly's brother or boyfriend

My gut feeling that has let me down time and time again but ... on the other hand ... has also been one with outcomes ... is now telling me that Clint and Drew have not taken a polygraph.  My gut feeling is also telling me that both of these young men have retained attorneys.  When compared to other missing person cases ... think about their silence in the media as well as the talk show circuit.

If no ruled out as a suspect in a missing person's case ... attorneys instruct their client not to speak to media sources and ...  that their client not comply with investigators' request to take a polygraph.

Of course taking a poly would be one thing that could lead toward eliminating individuals but it is not the only criteria for that to be determined.  I am more than positive that LE did (that the public is not aware of at this time) or will be conducting ones for those close to Holly.  The only thing that is publicly being discussed is the misreporting of what the brother saw, when he saw it & when he realized it appeared it wasnt her current boyfriend as he originally thought...it doesnt seem to rise to the speculation that is occurring in this case unless and until something more forthcoming from LE is stated.

NO POI's in the case

They are analyzing items to determine if it is connected to Holly.

They are searching in the Natchez Trail State Park area.

The man speaking is the Director of TBI, Mark Gwyn.

They are conducting neighbor canvasses.

They reiterated that they believe it was someone that knew Holly & lives in the community knowing her comings and goings.

Holly's brother is the one eyewitness & couldnt give a description (other than what was reported)

They will run every lead to the very end, "we dont deal with rumors."   "What we must do is stay focused."

"We'll look at all possibilities and all persons."

Asking community to recall last Wed, if anyone was acting differently...possibly not showing up for work.

"I dont think there is any major change that would have us going in another direction."

ATV or regular vehicle could have accessed the area around her home.

Hi all - I used to read here constantly with the Natalee case, and posted sometimes.  Sad that I'm back because of another missing person....but when the questions started forming about this case, I knew just the place to go look to try and learn more! :)

With regards to the Craigslist tire ad - I googled that phone number, and found an ad that was removed (and there isn't a cached version) but the description looks like that person was trying to sell the ATV back on March 13, and even mentions the tires.  Not sure if this is the proper way to paste it, but here's the listing:

I am getting the sense that LE has no earthly idea what happened to this girl.  They're still asking people to think back to Wednesday and remember if anyone was acting strangely.  If they knew who took her and that person was still missing they'd be asking people to look for him.  So either they know who it is and need people to come forward with information or they have no clue who did it.  Not knocking LE, I just think they've had so little with which to work.

In Disappearance of Holly Bobo, No One Ruled Out as Suspect

By Cristina Corbin

Published April 18, 2011

| FoxNews.com
 ::snipping2::

Clint and the woman's boyfriend have not been named as suspects in the case, but Helm said Monday, "We haven’t ruled out anyone" in the investigation.


"We’re trying very careful not to get tunnel vision," she said, adding that the woman's brother and boyfriend have been "very cooperative" in the case. Helm said authorities were treating Clint as a "witness."

Helm said authorities do not believe Bobo, a nursing student at the University of Tennessee at Martin, went willingly.

"We believe that she was probably being forced to comply," she said.

Please check out the comments in this article.  The comments are from a couple of days ago, but some of them seem to be from people that may have a little knowledge...and do allude to an ex.

Well, that falls in line with what I believe may have taken place in this case, an ex boyfriend - not her current, and only one NOT two.  If her current b/f was also threatened LE will be aware of that as well.

I also read, but cannot find the link now, that the carport at her house, where her brother said he saw her with the man he thought was her boyfriend, is detached from the house.  I saw some pictures posted earlier, and didn't see the carport right next to the house.

If it's a distance away that could also help explain why her brother just naturally thought it was her boyfriend from the back.

Tks Klaas.   TBI Director Mark Gwyn also referred to her brother today as the one "eyewitness."

Thanks Kshe78!  I took a screen capture of it.  Nice catch.  So she has an ex-boyfriend or friend that has been threatening her and her new boyfriend. (according to this person)

Holly Bobo: FBI says "led away" not dragged through carport
April 15th, 2011 1:28 pm ET


<snipped>

So, after much digging, I have come across this information.  Mind you, I have no verification, but many times, information like this comes out to be true.  This information make more sense than anything else that is out there.

According to the source, Holly had two ex-boyfriends.  One from a few days ago and the other, she had a restraining order against, because he threatened to kill her.[/color]  Holly left the house to go to school and her brother heard her arguing with her ex-boyfriend who was dressed in camo, outside the home.  He saw them both walking towards the wooded area of the yard, and he went back to what he was doing.  About an hour later he noticed his sister's car was still in the driveway.  He called his parents, a friend of Holly's and then the ex-boyfriend, and then the police.

That seems to indicate that LE is well aware of it, I'm going to mention this post when I talk to my contact regarding the other article because Ive felt all along that it was someone in her past that cannot let her go.   She's been dating Drew (again last name not announced by LE or spoke out on his own) for about one year.

Yes.  Shep was trying to glean that things like this dont just happen from thin air.   The cousin was thanking volunteers & stating that she is unaware of any reason why Holly was taken & then stated that she's been advised not to say anything so it doesnt interfere with the investigation.   That was about it.    She is Holly's third cousin.   Shep might repeat it during his evening broadcast 6PM central.

If the ex-boyfriend who has threatening the life of Holly cannot be located since her disappearance ... why is LE not posting an amber alert with a photo of this guy and a description of his vehicle.

This is crazy.  Holly may still be alive.

They dont put amber alerts out on persons of interest.   If they receive evidence thru probable cause if anything they would put out a Bolo BUT right now A) they have no proof she is with a particular person B) they dont have a description of a vehicle.

For crying out loud!  This guy has a history!  He has threatened the life of Holly!  There is a restraining order against him!  He is missing!  Holly is missing!  Records would reveal the vehicle registered to him!

Janet,

Im updating you on what my contact wrote me regarding that article.   I am to call to have a discussion any time after the top of the next hour.   I will get to everyone with what I can repeat after that phone conversation.

Thanks Capp

Two points to clarfy.

1. Was there a breakup with Drew in the few days prior to Holly's disappearance.
2.  The ex-boyfriend who threatened the life Holly?  Is he missing?

Thanks again.

Janet, sweetie we dont know this to be a FACT yet.   The post from someone who appears to have knowledge & LE having info confirmation of same are two different things.  Now, if indeed it is factual (as I suspected all along) that there is an EX especially with a restraining order then yes I would expect LE to take whatever means possible to bring that individual in for questioning.   Noted also in that comment was that LE couldnt find him....I guess we will have to see what gets disclosed as the case moves on. 

I called my contact, we crossed paths so Im waiting for a call back on the the other thing.

I read a media comment or post on another forum which stated that this ex-boyfriend showed up late for work on the morning of April 13th and ... left sometime later and ... nobody has seen him since.  I have not brought it up before because I forgot where I read the comment or post ... it was an unnamed source and ... there has been no media report implying a person of interest was missing.

This recent comment comfirms what I read a while back.

Could it be that investigators are connecting the dots behind the scenes and ... an arrest is forthcoming.  I had hoped that this was happening in the Hailey Dunn case but so far ....

have to go outside, but real info is that there are 2 different scenarios, I don't know why.  Scanner says one thing and a local inside source says another.  I guess it will all play out.  Prayers for her because they found her jeans in the woods yesterday and that doesn't sound good.

  Fact: Holly had just broke up with her current boyfriend and had a restraining order against the ex boyfriend.  Fact:  One of the boyfriends is accounted for and cleared.  The other boyfriend went to work that morning and then left and is still missing, and they think he took her.

Scenario 1: The brother heard her arguing with the boyfriend, looked out the window and saw them walking towards the backyard.  He didn't think much of it until he left for work 45 minutes later and Holly's car was still in the driveway and there was blood there.  Then he called 911 and his mother, who is a schoolteacher.

Scenario 2:  Someone tried to break in the house (according to scanner reports) and the brother heard Holly scream as someone was taking her and he tried to chase them, but had to turn around when they threatened to kill him or Holly.

Natalee Holloway's Aunt Speaks About Holly Bobo Case
4:10 p.m. CDT, April 18, 2011


<snipped>

Allison knows Bobo's parent's agony. That's why she is reaching out to Holly Bobo's family, in hopes of providing comfort. She hasn't gotten in touch with them yet.

"It's difficult times right now, the only things they can do is know that God is on their side," said Allison about what she would tell Bobo's parents.

She understands the hardest part for the family does not know where Holly is. Holloway's family is still looking for answers.

"Of course that all lies with Van der Sloot and if he would ever come clean and tell the truth, hopefully we would have some resolution to our case," said Allison.

Allison is praying for Bobo's family in hopes they will find answers and hopefully a happy ending.

As for Joran van der Sloot, he has yet to be tried in the Peru murder case.

Allison says there is a mound of evidence against him. She says Peru does not have a death penalty and the maximum sentence for murder is 35 years.

Holloway's family continues to spread the world about traveling safety.

Thanks Klaas

I read a media comment or post on another forum which stated that this ex-boyfriend showed up late for work on the morning of April 13th and ... left sometime later and ... nobody has seen him since.  I have not brought it up before because I forgot where I read the comment or post ... it was an unnamed source and ... there has been no media report implying a person of interest was missing.

This recent comment confirms what I read a while back.

According to Holly's boyfriend's brother's facebook page (follow all that, lol?) he was out with searchers over the weekend.  He mentions himself (the brother), his dad and another brother were out with searches over the weekend.  It's not clear if the brother was Holly's boyfriend, or another brother they have.  Because he has another status message on Friday thanking a different brother for coming down and hanging all day and night.

If that's not clear....I'll stick with first names. I feel it's probably ok to do that, since I figured it out by just looking at Facebook.

Drew - boyfriend
Derek - brother (older)
Jimmy - possibly a 3rd brother, who doesn't live in the same town.

At any rate, the boyfriend's family is actively involved with the volunteer search. 

Just something to note.

Holly Bobo Reward Tripled by Tennessee Governor to $75,000
Cops Believe the Student's Kidnapper Lives in the Area
PARSONS, Tenn. April 18, 2011


The governor of Tennessee today tripled the reward to $75,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of whoever abducted missing Tennessee woman Holly Bobo, who was snatched from her home and led into the woods by a shadowy stranger five days ago.

The governor of Tennessee today tripled the reward to $75,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of whoever abducted missing Tennessee woman Holly Bobo, who was snatched from her home and led into the woods by a shadowy stranger five days ago.

Gov. Bill Haslam approved a $50,000 reward from the state, in addition to a $25,000 reward already offered by Bobo's community.

Investigators believe Bobo's abductor lives in or near the 20-year-old college student's town of Parsons, Tenn., and have asked her neighbors to report any unusual activity or a break in peoples' routine those noticed in recent days.

"The person responsible for Holly's disappearance lives in the area," said Mark Gwyn, director of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. "Because of the terrain, you have to know where you're going, entrances and exits. We feel the person is in the community. We're asking the community if you know someone who has changed their routine, please let us know."

Gwyn said signs of suspicious activity include calling in sick to work over the past week, excessively cleaning a car or all-terrain vehicle, or unexpectedly selling a vehicle.

He said there is no person of interest in the case, but said police are following more than 250 leads.

This morning the FBI has put out missing person information for Holly Bobo and they are not using the word "dragged".

As you all know, new information has been slim on the case of missing Holly Bobo, from Tennesee.*

The police have not let any information out.* No suspected vehicle type, no description of the man, other than camo clothing, and that came from her brother.*

Over the last few days speculation on the actions of Holly's brother have been full of rumors.* Many are going as far as blaming her brother, who was there during the incident for not intervening.

I thought last night that too many were jumping to conclusion.* There was no doubt in my mind that he would have intervened if he could have, but my first guess was that maybe he couldn't. Maybe he was upstairs and seen what was going on from an upstairs window or maybe the guy had a gun to Holly's head and he couldn't do anything.

So, after much digging, I have come across this information.* Mind you, I have no verification, but many times, information like this comes out to be true.* This information make more sense than anything else that is out there.

According to the source, Holly had two ex-boyfriends.* One from a few days ago and the other, she had a restraining order against, because he threatened to kill her.* Holly left the house to go to school and her brother heard her arguing with her ex-boyfriend who was dressed in camo, outside the home.* He saw them both walking towards the wooded area of the yard, and he went back to what he was doing.* About an hour later he noticed his sister's car was still in the driveway.* He called his parents, a friend of Holly's and then the ex-boyfriend, and then the police.*Holly's ex-boyfriend was at work earlier and then left and he has not been seen since.

So, according to this information there was no dragging.* Holly was not dragged into the woods, and it looks as though her brother never used the words "dragged".* So everyone that is reporting that the brother said she was dragged, may have been putting words in his mouth.

Then this morning, the FBI says "She was seen being led away from the carport of her home toward a wooded area by a man…" So, there you have it.* Led away is not even close to "dragged".

This scenario that we all have had in our head of her being dragged kicking and screaming, while her family was watching is not true.

It is still terrible that she is gone, but now that this information is out, we can all concentrate on searching for her. I'm just sorry that the well-meaning public was given this misleading information.

:(  I agree, and am praying they are rumors.......does anyone know the name of the ex BF? I would love to know if he is a son, friend of my friend's kids there....not a huge jump considering the population of the area and almost everyone knows everyone, and if they don't then something is really odd

have to go outside, but real info is that there are 2 different scenarios, I don't know why.  Scanner says one thing and a local inside source says another.  I guess it will all play out.  Prayers for her because they found her jeans in the woods yesterday and that doesn't sound good.

Fact: Holly had just broke up with her current boyfriend and had a restraining order against the ex boyfriend.  Fact:  One of the boyfriends is accounted for and cleared.  The other boyfriend went to work that morning and then left and is still missing, and they think he took her.

Scenario 1: The brother heard her arguing with the boyfriend, looked out the window and saw them walking towards the backyard.  He didn't think much of it until he left for work 45 minutes later and Holly's car was still in the driveway and there was blood there.  Then he called 911 and his mother, who is a schoolteacher.

Scenario 2:  Someone tried to break in the house (according to scanner reports) and the brother heard Holly scream as someone was taking her and he tried to chase them, but had to turn around when they threatened to kill him or Holly.

Considering the date of this article was April 15th ... maybe this ex-boyfriend has now been located and ruled out as a person of interest.  Today Mark Gwyn, director of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation stated to media that there was NO persons of interest.

I was thinking about that earlier wondering if maybe he meant another brother was helping the search. he never mentioned a name. He did mention that his brother was Hollys BF in another comment. so not clear if he meant drew or jimmy helping with the search.

It is confusing maybe it was a back n forth thing? would be interesting to know who was the BF before this one and how long they were together, and if there was a restraining order.

If the ex-boyfriend who has threatening the life of Holly cannot be located since her disappearance ... why is LE not posting an amber alert with a photo of this guy and a description of his vehicle.

This is crazy.  Holly may still be alive.

Janet


They dont put amber alerts out on persons of interest.   If they receive evidence thru probable cause if anything they would put out a Bolo BUT right now A) they have no proof she is with a particular person B) they dont have a description of a vehicle.

For crying out loud!  This guy has a history!  He has threatened the life of Holly!  There is a restraining order against him!  He is missing!  Holly is missing!  Records would reveal the vehicle registered to him!

I believe I have entered the Twilight Zone.  Nothing makes sense.

Holly Bobo's well-being should be the priority.

Janet

Janet, sweetie we dont know this to be a FACT yet.   The post from someone who appears to have knowledge & LE having info confirmation of same are two different things.  Now, if indeed it is factual (as I suspected all along) that there is an EX especially with a restraining order then yes I would expect LE to take whatever means possible to bring that individual in for questioning.   Noted also in that comment was that LE couldnt find him....I guess we will have to see what gets disclosed as the case moves on. 

I called my contact, we crossed paths so Im waiting for a call back on the the other thing.

Capp

I read a media comment or post on another forum which stated that this ex-boyfriend showed up late for work on the morning of April 13th and ... left sometime later and ... nobody has seen him since.  I have not brought it up before because I forgot where I read the comment or post ... it was an unnamed source and ... there has been no media report implying a person of interest was missing.

This recent comment comfirms what I read a while back.

Could it be that investigators are connecting the dots behind the scenes and ... an arrest is forthcoming.  I had hoped that this was happening in the Hailey Dunn case but so far ....

 ::MonkeyNoNo::

This is what I can say, my contact is getting in touch with TBI & tips are being forwarded.   We'll have to wait but it does appear that there was an ex boyfriend, possibly from high school days.   I havent read anything about someone arriving to work late and leaving early but if that post is found Id like to be pointed to it.

PS Kathy Johnson is the cousin that appeared on Shepard Smith's Foxnews show earlier today, he's repeating his report live now.    Discussing any ATV or vehicle peculiar behavior being asked to be reported.   Again, discussing that the lunch purse was found 8 miles away from her home.

No one ever expects that something like this will happen in their family, especially in a small town like this one..so sad..you go to work and get a call that your darling daughter has been taken from their home..What a nightmare..

Thank you Janet.  There seems to be a rather large conflict as to what Holly's current b/f's status is, by all accounts other than this forum post above ^ they were not broken up and dating for about a year.    To me that same forum post seems rather sensationalist that jeans are also being reported to be found when that has not be reported on anywhere else.


This article you posted Janet is referring to an ex-boyfriend and its not clear if they mean Drew or an ex from a previous relationship.   I'm hoping for some clarity tonight or tomorrow.

Subject: RE: Kidnapped girl in TN   
Location: East of the Pecos   I'm a member of a true crime site that shares the police scanner information.  They found an abandoned vehicle on some small road near the woods with the engine still warm and Holly's cell phone on the front seat and camo clothing in the back seat.  They weren't releasing information on who owned the vehicle yet, but they know.  She did have a stalker, could be him.

Their home had an alarm and the alarm went off, so someone was breaking in.  A female from inside the house called 911, they think it was Holly, but when 911 tried to call back, there was no answer.  They talked like the brother was in the shower at the time (it was 7:30 am) so that would explain him not knowing what was going on right away.  LE thinks she is trying to leave some sort of trail for them, so someone definitely has her there.  It doesn't sound good, I hope they find her alive and soon.

My guess in this case is that as long as there is any possibility that they think Holly is alive, LE is going to hold everything as close to the vest as possible, even letting misinformation stay out there.  They are working against a clock and trying to keep hope alive.  JMO

If the house alarm went off Clint would've heard it even in the shower.  That story doesn't even make sense.  Those house alarms are L*O*U*D.

Investigators were going door-to-door to ask neighbors near the Bobo home if they saw anything the day she disappeared, Gwyn told reporters on Monday afternoon. Another 30 leads came in Monday, bringing the total to about 280, he said.

The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency was using imaging technology to map the bottoms of bodies of water near the Bobo home,

Holly Bobo abduction:TBI says focus of investigation outside family and friends

April 18th, 2011 8:34 pm ET
Isabelle Zehnder
Missing Persons Examiner

PARSONS, Tennessee (Isabelle Zehnder reporting) -- Late Sunday night country music star Whitney Duncan sent a message through Twitter saying her cousin, Clint Bobo, has been cleared by police in the investigation into the disappearance of her cousin Holly Bobo.

“My cousin, Clint, Holly’s brother, is NOT a suspect & I’m sick of people saying that he is. He has been cleared for good reason,” Whitney said.

A sea of online rumors and accusations against Clint Bobo have frustrated Holly's family and are unfounded.

On Monday Kristen Helm, spokeswoman for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI), responded to this Examiner.com news writer's email saying, "To reiterate what the Director [of TBI] said, no one has been ruled out at this time.

“However, the focus of law enforcement developing a suspect is outside immediate friends and family. 

"Both Clint and Drew have been helpful and cooperative throughout the investigation. Clint, is being treated as an eye witness at this time,” Helm said.

Helm told FoxNews.com Monday, “We’re trying to develop a person of interest who maybe missed work or missed an appointment unexpectedly that day.”

Helm said during an interview with FoxNews.com Monday that Clint initially told investigator that at 7:30 a.m. on Wednesday he saw his sister being led into the woods by a man he assumed was her boyfriend. He grew concerned after seeing blood outside which prompted him to call 911.

According to Holly's boyfriend's brother's facebook page (follow all that, lol?) he was out with searchers over the weekend.  He mentions himself (the brother), his dad and another brother were out with searches over the weekend.  It's not clear if the brother was Holly's boyfriend, or another brother they have.  Because he has another status message on Friday thanking a different brother for coming down and hanging all day and night.

If that's not clear....I'll stick with first names. I feel it's probably ok to do that, since I figured it out by just looking at Facebook.

Drew - boyfriend
Derek - brother (older)
Jimmy - possibly a 3rd brother, who doesn't live in the same town.

At any rate, the boyfriend's family is actively involved with the volunteer search. 

Just something to note.
Actually it WAS Jimmy NOT DREW. I had more time to look at Dereks FB page. He said me and jimmy going out again with his dad .. So strange huh drews not helping or posting anything? And LE changed status that he is not cleared. So where is DRew?! Maybe it was DRew that Clint saw?

Holly Bobo case: Brother and boyfriend not ruled out
April 18th, 2011 9:18 pm CT
Levi Page
Nashville Crime Examiner

 ::snipping2::

The TBI recently addressed the media and made the following clear:
•Law enforcement refuses to rule out anyone... This contradicts earlier reports that stated the brother and boyfriend of Holly Bobo had been cleared.
•Law enforcement is asking citizens in the community to be on the look out for people recently cleaning their vehicle or ATV, changing the tires, suddenly putting their vehicle/ATF up for sell, or reporting them stolen.
•Locals have also been asked to look for people acting odd or with increased stress.

 ::snipping2::

Clint Bobo, the 25-year-old brother of Holly Bobo claims he watched his sister walk into a wooded area with a man, he thought was her boyfriend, but when he went into the garage and found blood, he called 911.
 
The blood found in the garage is currently undergoing testing.
 
Law enforcement found personal items of Holly Bobo discarded 8 miles from her home. This at lease gives law enforcement a sense of direction on where the abductor went with Bobo, unless they items were placed there to throw law enforcement off.

Hi, Jerseygirl345

It seems well planned.  I hope that it turns out well.  We'll have to wait for more news tomorrow.  ::sigh::

Could the perp be a former employee with a grudge?

Holly Bobo Search: TBI says this is no hoax, searchers needed Tue., $75K reward

April 19th, 2011 1:56 am ET
Isabelle Zehnder
Missing Persons Examiner

PARSONS, Tennessee (Isabelle Zehnder reporting) -- As the search for Holly Bobo moves into day 6 the Tennessee Bureau of Investigations made a few announcements Monday: (1)They need more volunteers to come search Tuesday; (2) this is not a hoax; (3) they want people in the community to think about anything peculiar that happened since Holly went missing; and (4) the governor has tripled the reward amount.

During Monday’s press conference TBI Director Mark Gwyn announced that Governor Bill Haslam has increased the reward for information on the whereabouts of Holly Bobo to $75,000.
 ::snipping2::

Dive teams are searching waterways and investigators are trying to ascertain which items found by searchers are linked to Holly.

“The next analysis of a piece of evidence could be a key in solving this particular incident,” Gwyn said. “I can tell you that we have not eliminated anyone from this case.”
 ::snipping2::
Investigators say Holly was led into the woods behind her house by the hand or arm. They believe she was coerced and feared for her life, complying with her abductor. They believe the man, dressed in full camouflaged clothing, likely has knowledge of the thick woods nearby.
 ::snipping2::
Ongoing rumors

This case has been riddled with rumors and accusations against Holly’s family and her boyfriend. “We don’t deal with rumors,” Gwyn announced. “We stick to facts. As long as leads come in, we will be here.”

Asked if Holly’s brother and boyfriend have been ruled out as suspects in the case, TBI spokeswoman Kristen Helm wrote in an email Monday afternoon, "To reiterate what the Director [of TBI] said, no one has been ruled out at this time.
 ::snipping2::
“However, the focus of law enforcement developing a suspect is outside immediate friends and family.

"Both Clint and Drew have been helpful and cooperative throughout the investigation. Clint, is being treated as an eye witness at this time,” she said.

“We need the public to think back, figure out if someone was acting unusual Wednesday,” Gwyn said
 ::snipping2::
When asked about possible phone activity on Holly’s cell phone, Gwyn responded, “No comment about alleged cell phone activity.”

When asked about duct tape found with blonde hair attached to it, the TBI chose not to comment.

The TBI announced law enforcement will now be staging at the National Guard Armory in Parsons.

There have been rumors that Holly was found and that this entire thing was a hoax. Helm said, “There is no possible way this is a hoax.”

Their home is "A" on the map.  Myracletown intersects right at the south end of that lake then curves down south.  It's just a few minutes from the home.

Authorities Search Underwater for Clues in Disappearance of Holly Bobo

Helm said investigators last week located the woman’s lunchbox, found several miles from her home, as well as other items believed to belong to her.

“We do have some other things that we believe might belong to her, but [they] are undergoing forensic testing,” Helm said.

I wonder that as well.  Alot of times, the police set up these road blocks to talk to people who routinely drive that route, and ask if they saw anything that previously they may have not thought anything about.  I have been stopped at road blocks such as this before and they ask if this is a regular route, what times you drive it etc.  A good tactic I think - maybe someone with a small clue can solve this thing.

Prayers for Holly to be found safe!

When my daughter was 20 years hold ... a boyfriend could not accept the fact that she was determined to end the relationship. Twice he turned up at our home first thing in the morning while while we were all rushing around getting ready to for work.  My hubby and I left while the two of them were "talking".  We were never concerned about her safety.

However ... after the second time this happened ... my hubby instructed this young man he was not welcome in our home without permission.  The only thing we could figure was that he had been dwelling on this "talk" throughout the prior night and ... could not wait until an appropriate time.

Could it be that the kidnapping of Holly was not planned?  Could it be that Holly's ex-boyfriend wanted to "talk" with her regarding their relationship but ... realizing that Holly's parents would most likely send him away ... he waited in the woods with his vehicle hidden nearby until they left for work.

Could it be that Holly's unwillingness to discuss the relationship enraged him and ... that he when the kidnapping took place?

Think about it.  From behind ... Clint thought the person his sister was talking to was her ex-boyfriend.  Somehow ... I do not think he was mistaken.  My sons/SIL/grandson would not have to be facing me for me to recognize them if I looked out the window and saw one of them in my driveway.

Holly Bobo: FBI says "led away" not dragged through carport
April 15th, 2011 1:28 pm ET


<snipped>

According to the source, Holly had two ex-boyfriends.  One from a few days ago and the other, she had a restraining order against, because he threatened to kill her.  Holly left the house to go to school and her brother heard her arguing with her ex-boyfriend who was dressed in camo, outside the home.  He saw them both walking towards the wooded area of the yard, and he went back to what he was doing.  About an hour later he noticed his sister's car was still in the driveway.  He called his parents, a friend of Holly's and then the ex-boyfriend, and then the police.

Holly's ex-boyfriend was at work earlier and then left and he has not been seen since.

i think this is also very plausible and a good reason to have a roadblock.  I am curious to know if there are searchers out in the area along this route. i can't help but think that this is about to blow wide open and the police are on the right track to figuring out who took Holly

I wish I had contacts.  My speculations are based on media articles ... media articles that can be so contradictory.

Capp ... according to LE ... Drew and Clint have been cooperative from the getgo.

Considering Drew is not missing ... I contend that the ex-boyfriend who Clint believed he saw talking with his sister was the one with the restraining order against him ... the one who threatened to kill Holly.  Could this be the reason that Clint called the ex-boyfriend at work on the morning of April 13th ... called him only to find out he had left his place of employment ... never to be seen again?

Authorities Search Underwater for Clues in Disappearance of Holly Bobo
By Cristina Corbin
Published April 19, 2011
FoxNews.com

 ::snipping2::

Tennessee Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Kristin Helm said a team of FBI agents and U.S. Marshals are also canvassing the woman's neighborhood, interviewing residents of the close-knit community for any leads in the case.

 ::snipping2::

As police continue their search Tuesday, a profile of the suspect has emerged. Detectives say they believe the alleged abductor may be from the area and possibly acquainted with Bobo and her family.

"We’re looking for someone who probably lives in that general area or is familiar with that area. If she was led into the woods, he would need to know the terrain to get in and out," Helm said. "It’s a very small community. If she didn’t know him directly, she may have been familiar with him."

Helm added, however, that "no one has been ruled out" as a suspect, and said police are looking for someone who may be showing "signs of stress or anxiety" or exhibiting "odd behavior."

I saw this yesterday and it gave me the creeps. Surely they are investigating this pos right?
Maybe it is nothing but I think another poster said Jackson, TN was only about 35 miles away. If she disappeared on the 13th and he wasn't arrested till the 18th I would think it would be warranted to look at him hard.

The first victim tells police she was shopping at the Old Hickory Mall on April 6, 2011, when a stranger came up to her and told her how pretty she was.  The man followed her in and out of several stores, making the victim uneasy.

The next day, the victim was leaving Kohl's on Vann Drive when the same man pulled up next to her in a blue car and started complimenting her again.  She ran into a store and stayed there for 30 minutes.  When she left, the same man pulled up next to her and asked her if she knew what a fetish was.  He told the victim he had a fetish for her before making more lewd comments and performing a simulated sex act on himself.

The victim ran into another store and the man drove away.

A second victim told police that a stranger driving a blue car approached her on the campus of Union University on April 7, 2011.

The man asked her if she knew what a fetish was and made a comment about her feet.  The second victim walked to her dorm, where she noticed through her window the blue car had parked close to her residence.

The second victim contacted campus security and the man left.

The second victim remembered about a week earlier that the same man was watching her intently as she walked into Target.  She said he continued watching her when she left the store, about 20 minutes later.

When my daughter was 20 years hold ... a boyfriend could not accept the fact that she was determined to end the relationship. Twice he turned up at our home first thing in the morning while we were all rushing around getting ready to for work.  My hubby and I left while the two of them were "talking".  We were never concerned about her safety.

However ... after the second time this happened ... my hubby informed this young man he was not welcome in our home without permission.  The only thing we could figure was that he had been dwelling on this "talk" throughout the prior night and ... could not wait until an appropriate time.

Could it be that the kidnapping of Holly was not planned?  Could it be that Holly's ex-boyfriend wanted to "talk" with her regarding their relationship but ... realizing that Holly's parents would most likely send him away ... he waited in the woods with his vehicle hidden nearby until they left for work.

Could it be that Holly's unwillingness to discuss the relationship enraged him and ... that he when the kidnapping took place?

Think about it.  From behind ... Clint thought the person his sister was talking to was her ex-boyfriend.  Somehow ... I do not think he was mistaken.  My sons/SIL/grandson would not have to be facing me for me to recognize them if I looked out the window and saw one of them in my driveway.

According to the source, Holly had two ex-boyfriends.  One from a few days ago and the other, she had a restraining order against, because he threatened to kill her.  Holly left the house to go to school and her brother heard her arguing with her ex-boyfriend who was dressed in camo, outside the home.  He saw them both walking towards the wooded area of the yard, and he went back to what he was doing.  About an hour later he noticed his sister's car was still in the driveway.  He called his parents, a friend of Holly's and then the ex-boyfriend, and then the police.

Holly's ex-boyfriend was at work earlier and then left and he has not been seen since.

I agree with you but as you know I believe this reporter is incorrect.  I think there is ONE ex-boyfriend & not her current boyfriend, Drew.  There is NO indication there were two exs besides Drew & nothing is coming to light that there is, Ive been looking into this feverishly.

I wish I had contacts.  My speculations are based on media articles ... media articles that can be so contradictory.

Capp ... according to LE ... Drew and Clint have been cooperative from the getgo.

Considering Drew is not missing ... I contend that the ex-boyfriend who Clint believed he saw talking with his sister was the one with the restraining order against him ... the one who threatened to kill Holly.  Could this be the reason that Clint called the ex-boyfriend at work on the morning of April 13th ... called him only to find out he had left his place of employment ... never to be seen again?

Janet


Yes, Drew and Clint both have been extremely cooperative & Clint is being considered an eyewitness.  Its also unclear at this time if Clint called Drew or the ex-boyfriend, still hoping to get it all clarified.

We should say "reported" or "alleged" restraining order for now because we havent gotten proof A) who the ex is B) record of a restraining order.   From early on I suspected it was an ex or someone infatuated with her, so I am tending to think there is an ex with an alleged restraining order.  From everything I've read or heard, there doesnt appear to be any reason to suspect Drew.

THP: "New Tactics" in Holly Bobo Search .
Tuesday, April 19, 2011 12:49 PM Staff Reports

Parsons, TN - In an update from Decatur County this morning, a spokesman with the Tennessee Highway Patrol stated that they would be trying some "new tactics", as the search for 20 year old Holly Bobo continues in West Tennessee.

Kristen Helm, with the TBI in Nashville, confirmed that 5 roadblocks were put in put in place this morning in the area of the Bobo residence around Swan Johnson Road and adjoining Myracle Town Road, among other roads in the Darden community area.

Helm acknowledged that the police presence in the rural area was there to monitor traffic around the community and to encourage citizens to come forward with any information that may be useful as investigators sift through leads and evidence related to Holly's disappearance on Wednesday, April 13th.

One source in Decatur County suggested that additional new investigators had been brought in to question both residents and motorists about events from last Wednesday that might lead investigators closer to finding Holly Lynn Bobo.

The local news around here has nothing new today about Holly. Hopefully, there will be some new development at some point.

The only thing I have heard new came from an aunt who said that my cousin's husband and his father had taken their 4-wheelers to the area yesterday and today to help search. She said he told her that it was going to be covered on Nancy Grace tonight. I haven't talked to him myself so I don't know what transpired to make him think such...perhaps he saw their crews or something.

As the days continue with no additional progress, I must admit feeling less hopeful of a good outcome. They have not scaled back the search and I keep telling myself what a good sign that is. They are also still classifying it as "search and rescue" as opposed to a recovery mission. Plus, they appear to keep bringing in more professional investigative manpower.

I just can't imagine what this family is enduring.

A spokesman for the family said the Bobo's are frustrated with rumors that the brother might be involved.

"I've known Clint as long as I've known Holly and as a character witness for him I just could never see Clint being involved in anything of this nature, so I think we can probably stop the rumors about his involvement," said spokesman Kevin Bromley.

The TBI is still checking to see if blood found in the carport of the Bobo home is connected to the case.  They also discovered Holly's lunch box about eight miles from her home on Gooch Road last week.

Up and down Tennessee Street, signs of hope and prayer for the missing 20-year old nursing student are evident. Here, Holly Bobo's disappearance isn't just a water cooler conversation, it's the only conversation the people in this tight knit small town are having.

Tennessee Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Kristin Helm told Fox News that a team of FBI agents and US Marshals are canvassing the neighborhood. Last week they found a lunchbox several miles from Bobo's home, along with other items that they believe belong to her.

"We do have some other things that we believe might belong to her, but [they] are undergoing forensic testing," Helm said.

Detectives believe that the abductor may be from the Parsons area and he may be somebody acquainted with Bobo and her family.

"We're looking for someone who probably lives in that general area or is familiar with that area," Helms said. "If she was led into the woods, he would need to know the terrain to get in and out. It's a very small community. If she didn't know him directly, she may have been familiar with him."

Capps ... you are correct.  Considering there is only one media article that mentions a missing ex-boyfriend that had a restraining order against him for threatening the life of Holly ... I do have to be careful for my speculations.

Where you able to find out anything further from your contact at The Examiner?

Life outside the computer room beckons once again.

Holly Bobo: FBI says "led away" not dragged through carport
April 15th, 2011 1:28 pm ET


<snipped>

According to the source, Holly had two ex-boyfriends.  One from a few days ago and the other, she had a restraining order against, because he threatened to kill her.  Holly left the house to go to school and her brother heard her arguing with her ex-boyfriend who was dressed in camo, outside the home.  He saw them both walking towards the wooded area of the yard, and he went back to what he was doing.  About an hour later he noticed his sister's car was still in the driveway.  He called his parents, a friend of Holly's and then the ex-boyfriend, and then the police.

Holly's ex-boyfriend was at work earlier and then left and he has not been seen since.

http://www.examiner.com/missing-persons-in-national/holly-bobo-fbi-says-led-away-not-dragged-through-carport

Ive posted her articles the past few days.  I cannot discuss details for obvious reasons but in addition to her current boyfriend, Drew there does appear to be one ex boyfriend that has been brought to the appropriate attention but have no knowledge if he's been located.  It may be connected, or not but it is my personal view that it is.  That being said, I have absolute faith in every LE agency that is working the criminal investigation in this case & I truly believe that we will find out what happened to Holly.

I'm elated that Holly's case is getting the tremendous outpouring of assistance both professionally & volunteers, it is a measure that we all should maintain faith in humanity even when there are days that seems grim.    The manpower is truly needed in this case due to the area, its environment is thick with woods & many bodies of water as well as how spread out it is.  The only sad observation I denote is that not all missing persons cases are equal & so many more could use even half if not the same attention...but what this case does show is that it can be done.   I'm praying they find her very soon, if not I'll be making a small contribution & lending a hand personal this coming Saturday.  I'm mindful that while there is still hope that she can be found alive often it doesnt turn out that way BUT a blessed Easter miracle would have me doing the bunny hop for quite a long time.

Day 7 Of Search For Holly Bobo In Decatur County. Snipped

A spokesman for the family said the Bobo's are frustrated with rumors that the brother might be involved.

"I've known Clint as long as I've known Holly and as a character witness for him I just could never see Clint being involved in anything of this nature, so I think we can probably stop the rumors about his involvement," said spokesman Kevin Bromley.

The TBI is still checking to see if blood found in the carport of the Bobo home is connected to the case.  They also discovered Holly's lunch box about eight miles from her home on Gooch Road last week.

Holly Bobo Reward Tripled by Tennessee Governor to $75,000
Cops Believe the Student's Kidnapper Lives in the Area
PARSONS, Tenn. April 18, 2011


The governor of Tennessee today tripled the reward to $75,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of whoever abducted missing Tennessee woman Holly Bobo, who was snatched from her home and led into the woods by a shadowy stranger five days ago.

The governor of Tennessee today tripled the reward to $75,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of whoever abducted missing Tennessee woman Holly Bobo, who was snatched from her home and led into the woods by a shadowy stranger five days ago.

Gov. Bill Haslam approved a $50,000 reward from the state, in addition to a $25,000 reward already offered by Bobo's community.

Investigators believe Bobo's abductor lives in or near the 20-year-old college student's town of Parsons, Tenn., and have asked her neighbors to report any unusual activity or a break in peoples' routine those noticed in recent days.

"The person responsible for Holly's disappearance lives in the area," said Mark Gwyn, director of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. "Because of the terrain, you have to know where you're going, entrances and exits. We feel the person is in the community. We're asking the community if you know someone who has changed their routine, please let us know."

Gwyn said signs of suspicious activity include calling in sick to work over the past week, excessively cleaning a car or all-terrain vehicle, or unexpectedly selling a vehicle.

He said there is no person of interest in the case, but said police are following more than 250 leads.

Reward increased to $80K in Holly Bobo case

The Tennessee Sheriff’s Association today increased the reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the disappearance of Holly Bobo by $5,000, according to a news release.

That raises the total amount of reward money being offered to $80,000. Gov. Bill Haslam offered $50,000 Tuesday for information leading to an arrest in the case, and the community has raised $25,000 for information leading to Holly’s whereabouts.

The investigation continued today in Decatur County with road canvasses on five roads leading in and out of the area of the Bobo family's home this morning during the time of morning she was last seen on April 13. Investigators have said she was abducted about 7:40 a.m.

Why no attempt to call Holly? Same goes for the mother who called 911 ... but I have yet to see any reports that either the brother or the mother tried to reach Holly on her cell phone.

If LE has the cell phone records of either (or both), I would definitely check to see if such a call was made. Maybe it was and was just not reported by the media.

But if neither tried to call Holly I would find that suspicious and ask them why no attempt to call Holly prior to calling 911. That's the first call I would have made. But that's just me.

Radaronline is on Nancy Grace and said that not one but 5 roads were blocked off tonight.   She stated that the duct tape was found at the side of the road more near her home, that is the first we're hearing about a location & I wouldnt say that is confirmed.

Tammy Ramey, "friend of Bobo family - cigarette butts, items that may have come out of a purse etc was asked to be looked for by searchers.   She stated that its a big hunting area.  She said that she knows the family for years & they are good people, one of the finer families in the area. 

Tammy, doesnt know what could have happened, never anything like it happened in that community.   She doesnt have a clue & the authorities arent saying much, she hopes they know more than they are telling.

Tammy said that "Clint Bobo is one of the finest boys that we have in this county & proud to have him here.  There is no way, no way he could have done anything to Holly."

It is plausible that it could have been that Clint thought it was Drew was talking to her about hunting, its turkey hunting season.  Its not unusual.

Defense attorney @$$hat, still brings up that he finds what Clint witnessed & stated is "troubling," and quite frankly as Ive stated before in this case I think that is dead wrong.

Mark Harold, former PO - discussing too many searchers & could it compromise the evidence, I would tend to agree if they are NOT trained properly or if they are unfamiliar with the area.   Discussion of that should be left to the several LE agencies, not speculation...they know what they need in this particular case....geez

Discussed reenacting what took place as Clint remembered...not a bad idea, not sure how much more fruitful it would be, cant hurt.

Mentioned that there has been no ransom - personally, I feel that is a pertinent fact.

Discussing that it is not a random act, he probably knows her or sought her out (stalking).   When she walked with him she gave him the power (well that could have been worded better not to make it out to sound like it blames the victim). 

ANOTHER QUICK COMMERCIAL - I gotta tell this channel aggravates me & so does NG at times but she has a guest host tonight & she's a far cry different than Nancy.   I recognize her from another network, I cant place it this second but I want to say CNN

sdmike

Holly's cell phone?  Good point?

I adhere to the theory that there is a missing ex-boyfriend who may have taken Holly ... a missing ex-boyfriend with a existing restraining order against him for threatening Holly's life.

However ... in the process of elimination ... I believe that the brother should not have automatically been ruled out as a person of interest.  After all ... there were no witnesses to verify his account of what he claims took place on the morning of April 13th.

I hope this young man has submitted to a polygraph so that any suspicion directed at him can be focused elsewhere.

Thanks for posting this I missed some of it. Hmm why did she say he thought it was Drew talking to her about turkey hunting? What I'm wondering is did he normally hunt early? Come by when she's leaving to talk about hunting turkey? Odd to me she would say that...

Cont'd NG live coverage of the case:

Pam, "is it possible she left on her own" - IMHO absolutely not    Tammy, family friend  "Never in a million years, no no."

Kelly (prosecutor) discussing who they could be looking at....standard

Discussing SO's in the area

Joe Gomez:   No POI's or suspects, not outruling anyone at this time (well he was more wordy & Im not into the sensationalist edge of any case)

Now discussing, no known tire tracks or torn clothes on branches and brush  (NOTE: we do NOT know that to be fact yet)

Mark Harold:  "As time passes, its less and less likely that the person will be found alive but you have to hold out hope for this family."

Brought up that she could be held as a "sex slave" (I dont think so FWIW)

BREAK


Caller asked if it could be a stalker....IMHO, yes   as well as my personal original thought that it is an EX boyfriend.

I read that at one place & I would classify that as a rumor until otherwise disclosed.   By all accounts that I am aware of they were dating & no apparent break up.   His family is out there searching daily for her, his brother's FB also indicates that by the brother's posts & responses from others.   Since LE has not disclosed their last name & they have not made a public statement, I do not feel its my place as a choice to publicly disclose it.

(CBS/WREG/AP) PARSONS, Tenn. - Investigators are using new equipment in the search for missing 20-year-old Tennessee nursing student Holly Bobo.

On Monday, the Tennessee Wildlife Resource Agency began using site-imaging technology to look for clues in local lakes and bodies of water, as investigators expanded their search door to door.

Please help me in understanding why we should not be looking at the brother too?  Has anyone seen where there have been tire tracks reported?  Car tracks?  Scent of Holly walking to woods? Scent anywhere?  I think we just aren't being told anything but it's odd that LE wouldn't even mention the mode suspected in Holly's removal from the area!  To me it seems like they don't know but I could be wrong and no, I don't know what the motive might be for her brother to harm her.  Who nowadays uses a motive?  Passion, spur of the moment heated argument, etc.

Goodmorning everyone.  I think that the police have a good idea of who abducted Holly and that this will resolve sooner rather than later.  I think they are being strategic with the media in some of the statements they have released so that the person responsible might think they have more "room to breathe."  I also believe that they have been watching this person and have not seen Holly with him or anything indicating that she may be alive.  Maybe they are waiting to see if he goes back to where he left Holly?  Maybe they are looking for one more piece of information that would help them get a warrant or close in on the suspect for good.  I don't know... just some thoughts.

SHEILA BURKE
Associated Press


<snipped>

Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director Mark Gwyn asked the public for help Monday, urging them to think about any strange behavior from people they know since Bobo disappeared on Wednesday.

Law enforcement officials said last week that Bobo’s brother and boyfriend were not suspects but Gwyn told The Associated Press that the TBI hasn’t cleared anyone, “no matter what their relationship” is to the victim.

Bobo’s brother told police that he saw his sister being led into the woods by a man dressed in camouflage. He called police after seeing blood outside the family home near Parsons.

Holly Bobo Missing: ATV Tire Ads Tied To Case- Search Sets Up Roadblocks- Blink Discuss Case Tonight On Dana Pretzer Show
Posted by Blink
Tuesday 19 April 2011 5:37 pm


<snipped>

While speculation that the suspect responsible for Holly’s disappearance is indeed a member of the very small town of Parson’s, and is well known to Holly and the Bobo family, many close friends of the Bobo’s are participating in searches of their own properties vowing to continue until she is located.

Many long time Decatur County families own large tracts of land near the Bobo residence.

Some of them for generations – including the Todd family, as an example, who owns large tracts in the Myracle Town Rd,  Box Rd,  and Gilbert Rd area.

Jason Todd, a former schoolmate of Holly Bobo’s as are MANY of Holly’s friends, will unfortunately end up searching for her in each other’s  backyards.

Until I it is revealed that Drew has an alibi ... submitted to and passed a polygraph ... somthing akin to Clint ... I cannot move passed him in my speculations.

Thank about it.  Clint believed it was Drew who was talking/arguing with Holly outside the home on the morning of April 13th.  This is why he was not concerned for her safety.  I can appreciate him thinking like a typical brother ... "I'm am staying out of this; I'll let the two of them work it out".

Is there any woman on this forum who could not recognize her daughter's boyfriend/SIL from behind?

I hear you.  It still seems odd to *me* that Blink would choose to mention any name at all.

Does anyone have access to a people-finder type service?  Reverse phone directory shows more info available but the additional info requires a subscription service.

Some of them for generations – including the Todd family, as an example, who owns large tracts in the Myracle Town Rd,  Box Rd,  and Gilbert Rd area.

Jason Todd, a former schoolmate of Holly Bobo’s as are MANY of Holly’s friends, will unfortunately end up searching for her in each other’s  backyards.

I hear you.  It still seems odd to *me* that Blink would choose to mention any name at all.

Does anyone have access to a people-finder type service?  Reverse phone directory shows more info available but the additional info requires a subscription service.

I don't post much here - mostly lurk. 

Blink does not mention names haphazardly.  She definitely mentioned that name for a reason.  JMHO.
Quote
Other than giving credit to a Holly's former classmate ... Holly's Facebook friend ... for assisting in the search ... what would Blink's motive be for mentioning Jason Todd on her blog?

This wannabe detective who suspects conspiracies where none exist ... does not comprehend anything suspicious in Blink's words.

Rumors run rampant as search for Holly Bobo drags on

(WMC-TV) - Officials said strong storms late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning put a damper on the search for missing nursing student Holly Bobo, possibly washing away evidence.

And some believe the storms may have impacted the number of volunteers who turned out Wednesday, with 100 less people showing up to search for Bobo.

Still, it seems a terrible rumor caused more damage than the storm.

"Rumors were just rampant," TBI Director Mark Gwyn said earlier this week. "All kinds of off the wall rumors that we had her.  And this is an emotional time for the family."

Gwyn said someone spread a rumor Tuesday that the missing nursing student had been found.

"I know several search parties got the message and came in," he said. "They wasted three hours of daylight they could have been searching because they thought we found Holly."
     
 ::snipping2::
"We're tired of not knowing," one searcher said. "We want some answers.  We'll just have to wait and see, but we'll get them."
Investigators said they have no suspects and few solid leads. People close to Holly Bobo have a message from the family.
"If you can hear me, know that we are praying for you and know that we are doing everything in our power to bring you home safely," said Brian Bromley, a friend of the Bobo family.
The Parsons community will hold a candlelight vigil at the fairgrounds at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday.

Until it is revealed that Drew has a solid alibi  and/or has submitted to and passed a polygraph ... something akin to Clint ... I cannot move passed him in my speculations.

IMO ...  Clint believed it was Drew ... not a threatening ex-boyfriend ... who was talking/arguing with Holly outside the home on the morning of April 13th.  This is why he was not concerned for her safety when the two walked towards the woods.  I can imagine him thinking like a typical brother ... "I'm am staying out of this; I'll let the two of them work it out".

Is there any poster on this forum who would not recognize ... from behind ... at close range ... a individual who has spent a significant amount of time within the home ... who had a relationship with an immediate family member.

The silence encompassing Drew gives me a hinky feeling.

Scanning around seeing what new stuff I can find from today about Holly.

Just saw this tweet about Nancy Grace tonight:  http://twitter.com/#!/NancyGraceHLN

Have no idea if it will be Nancy or Deborah Norville (sp?) from last night. It does sound like new coverage although it will probably be "bombshells" we have already heard or read.  I just really don't think there's much new out there in the last couple of days. 

Also, just read somewhere that TBI has blood evidence back but has not released findings.  Can't even recall where I read that right now...grrr...should have marked it when I saw it.  Anyway, I also saw on Will's tweets that they are asking the public to rest tomorrow so that LE can regroup, etc. but public search will resume on Friday.   http://twitter.com/#!/willnunley  about 8 tweets down at 6 pm CST.

Candlelight, community service for Holly tonight. (reference in Nunley's tweets)

Janet,

This is like scrambled eggs.

Please tell me your opinion. Did the perp leave his vehicle in the woods?  Did the perp walk to the carport?
Did he return to the woods (from the carport) with the precious 20 year old?  Who parks their vehicle in the woods and walks
that long driveway, to snatch a person, and walks back to the woods?   ::MonkeyConfused::

Was the camouflage outfit found, yet?  Was the guy really dressed in camouflage or did the brother think he was?  What time did Holly leave for school?  Does anyone know? 

I have no clue, but curious, if the other sister (reportly) exists, if she is older, maybe she could be in College.

The ages are Clint Hunter Bobo (25),  Holly Bobo (20) and I guess the sister could be in between, if the Sibling exists?

Media Reports

Considering it was reported on NG last night that a cousin confirmed that Clint submitted and passed a polygraph ... I no longer suspect him of wrongdoing.  In other words ... I believe the claims of Holly's brother that imply he observed her outside from a window within the home talking/arguing with who he thought was her boyfriend.  He then observed them both walking towards the wood.  He was not concerned until he left for work a short time later and saw Holly's vehicle was still at home and there was a small amount of blood in the driveway.

Speculation:

I believe that whoever took Holly did not want to be spotted by her parents ... so he drove through the woods on/in a vehicle and parked it out of sight.  The parents left for work.  When Holly came out  ... he approached her near the home and ... attempted to discuss a relationship that was on the rocks.  Holly would not cooperate ... the young man became enraged and ... forced  her to accompany him into the woods to his vehicle.

As for the "sister," I do not know for sure but I think the one you all think is a sister is really a cousin.  There's never been a sister mentioned at all in the local press but I do remember the cousin Natalie being quoted somewhere.  I'll try to find a link but I have problems relocating stuff.

Not another word of it about two men from any source whatsoever that I know of.   Drew hasnt posted on his FB & his brother hasnt posted since Sunday on his.   I'm sure they have become aware that people are picking their words apart & itching to copy/paste what can be seen by others, if some havent already.   It isnt a far gone conclusion that LE is aware of their personal social network activity either.

I have seen several posts that 2 men in camo took Holly. One is her Friend on facebook who said this,the other is DrewS friend. They both say Clint says he heard Holly screaming and saw TWO men dragging her in the woods. Anyone know this to be true or see it in the news reports?
Klass, I can post the links or snapshots of these comments when i get Home from my computer if you want me to?


Yes please, post the links and screen caps if you can. 

this is a friend of Chad Marshall, Ill post Chads comment about Drew too..(they are close friends it seems)

I was looking at the people close to the friends and helping with the search posts and came accross these..notice they posted it soon after the abduction re TWO men in camo

I would classify that as an hysterical misrepresentation of the facts

Thanks StarMonkey!

Capps - I agree with you.  I think she/they exaggerated out of fear.

I couldnt help but also notice in the above screencaps that a friend of theirs went to go see someone with Drew & they prayed.   To me, unless I see otherwise I do not think Drew is involved in this at all.   Also, IMHO from the getgo I do not feel this was a random act but someone she knew personally (ex) or by sight (stalker/infatuated type).

I also just want to make mention that since Holly is only 20 some of her Facebook "friends" or relatives on their social network pages could be minors.   

Personally, Ive had Holly's boyfriend & other individual's pages caches for almost a week but Im choosing not to copy content from them unless they become official persons of interest in this case.   I'm mindful that the TBI has put out there that they feel it is someone within the community (whom could be viewing or has others that would help him cover something up).   Again, just my opinion but until we get confirmed if there is a known ex or anyone else that not only threatened Holly but others, if they read their pages being copied they'll have a heads up that they are about to be exposed/others could be in danger until this
person is caught.  Again, that's the caution I've personally chosen to take unless circumstances in this case change, some may agree or disagree but my judgement is telling me to proceed as such for now.

Each case is different, but always if someone comes across something that they feel is pertinent turn it over to LE at the appropriate assigned contact number as a tip.

Prayers for Holly

Goodmorning everyone. I hope and pray they find Holly today alive and well.

Not sure if this was asked or posted before.
Why is it that the neighbor South of the Bobos heard screams from the Bobo home & then called 911 at 7:30? Then Clint Bobo does not call 911 until 7:43 as he saw blood.(however he said he saw her drug to the woods) She probably was screaming at the house. Maybe Clint knew who it was? Why wait to call 911? Was he told not to? Was he afraid? Why call others before calling 911 if intact she was screaming AT the house? Which I believe she was screaming at the house struggling because of the blood. How can he see her being drug and not screaming at 7:43 and the neighbor heard it at 7:30.

Seahorse - that's fine I was just wondering if there was something I missed.  Both Holly and her sister are pretty gals.

Klaas,

I do have an interest in the Dog in the photo. Do the Bobo's own the dog?  Would be barking wildly?  IMO.
Perhaps that is what alerted the brother?  T.Y.

John Mehr - Spokesman for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation

Holly Bobo Followed Kidnapper into Tennessee Woods in 'Fear of Her Life'
PARSONS, Tenn. April 15, 2011


Tennessee college student abducted outside her home as she was leaving for class complied with her camouflaged kidnapper who led her into a nearby woods because she was "in fear of her life," investigators said today.

Holly Bobo, 20, was confronted Wednesday by a man in hunting camouflage who forced her to go wiht him into the woods, said John Mehr, spokesman for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

"We believe he actually had her arm, holding her. We feel she was in fear of her life, so was complying," he told a news conference.

Mehr said investigators "did not see drag marks." He added she was "not forcefully dragged and she's like any other victim, maybe complying with her attacker, but she walked into the woods" outside her Pasrons, Tenn. home.

Bobo's 25-year-old brother watched from inside the home, but did not believe she was being abducted until later. He saw the stranger from behind and believed it was his sister's boyfriend.

Investigators initially said the woman was dragged from near the house's carport into the woods, leading many to ask why the brother had not intervened.

Her brother, said Mehr, "had reasons to believe [the man] was not an attacker."

I still cannot comprehend why ... within two days of Holly's disappearance .... TBI spokesperson John Mehr stated that the brother and boyfriend were ruled out by investigators as persons of interests.

Then on April 17 ... TBI spokesperson Kirsten Helm revealed that investigators had done a flip flop.

Hi Janet,
Sorry I didn't posts links. They are from news articles. I will posts the links as soon as I can. I basically did a search on the timeline and what time the calls were made. If I'm not mistaken it was LE who quoted the times of the calls. For some reason I believe some statements were backtracked re the screaming and what Clint saw. I do know his story changed but not sure if he changed or Strategy by LE?

Kevin Bromley - Spokesperson for the Bobo Family

On 'Nancy Grace': Holly Bobo Spokesperson Proves Useless
April 20, 2011 08:50 PM EDT


During a live via-video interview with Kevin Bromley, a so-called spokesperson for the Bobo family, Deborah Norville asked all the right questions but got no answers. Anytime Norville, filling in for Nancy Grace, asked the man a question, he dodged it, refusing to answer.

"Like I said, I'm the family spokesperson," Bromley would repeat over-and-over throughout the interview.

Norville told Bromley that a cousin of the Bobos claimed that Clint took a lie detector test and passed. When she asked if this could be confirmed, he refused to answer. He also wouldn't answer any questions regarding the rest of the family taking polygraph tests. When he was asked about what exactly Clint Bobo saw on the morning Holly Bobo was abducted, he refused to answer. He claimed that Clint never told him.

KEVIN BROMLEY, FAMILY SPOKESPERSON: Yes. Thanks, Deborah.

NORVILLE: As you know, today the police indicated, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation indicated they do have the DNA results of that blood, but they`re not releasing it to the public. Is it frustrating to the family to know that there is so much information that has gone unreported or unpublicized?

BROMLEY: Well, obviously, in an investigation of this nature, you know, information, when it`s not passed on, it can be frustrating. But they also know that those who are investigating, the TBI, the FBI, are very competent. And they want to make sure that -- you know, they know that when information is released that it is very factual. There`s been a lot of -- as with any case, there`s always a lot of rumors that begin circling and surfacing in an investigation of this nature. But the family has full confidence that they are following up on leads and doing the best they can with the investigation.[/b]

NORVILLE: We`re sure that they`ve got great the faith in it. One of the things that I know has been so frustrating for the Bobos are all the rumors that have been speculating about what happened, when it happened, who saw what. And Clint, of course, is the last person that saw Holly. Can you tell us exactly what he did see?

BROMLEY: Well, Deborah, I don`t know anything else other than what has been reported by the TBI on the -- you know, the sightings of actually what Clint actually saw.

NORVILLE: Well, for instance, it`s being reported by one magazine that there were flecks of blood in the lawn. Would that be how he`s described it to you?

BROMLEY: He`s not described it to me.

NORVILLE: Has the family shared what he said?

BROMLEY: No. No. We`ve not talked at length about what Clint witnessed that day.

NORVILLE: As you know, we have spoken off-camera with other family members, and Natalie (ph) Bobo, who`s a cousin of Holly who`s gone missing, said to us that Clint had indicated that he had taken a polygraph test and passed it. Can you confirm that?

BROMLEY: I don`t know that to be sure. Has the investigators said anything about that?

NORVILLE: Well, this is a family member who has told us, and we`re trying to confirm that with you as the family spokesperson.

BROMLEY: Right. I don`t know that to be factual. That would be something you`d have to talk with the investigators about.

NORVILLE: Do you know if any other individuals have been given polygraphs?

BROMLEY: I don`t know.

NORVILLE: Would they have shared that with you if it had happened, or is it just something that you just don`t want to talk about because it hasn`t come from the TBI?

NORVILLE: Well, Deborah, as a family spokesperson, you know, my main objective is to talk about Holly and talk about the family and how strong they are, and also the community, how involved they`ve been in the search.

NORVILLE: And I`m sure that`s been a great comfort to the Bobo family, as well. What about the 911 call? Traditionally, 911 calls are taped and they are released to the public. Is it frustrating to the Bobos that those calls have not been shared?

BROMLEY: I`ve not heard anything about -- I`ve not heard them talk about the 911 calls.

NORVILLE: Why do you think that they wouldn`t release it?

BROMLEY: I don`t know. Again, I`m kind of the family spokesperson, and the investigators are doing a great job with the evidence they have.

NORVILLE: Is there anything -- as you and the family have been sitting around and talking, is there anything that`s come up that now, six days after her disappearance, leads you to believe that, Whoa, there may have been something strange that happened and this could be significant in helping the investigators with this case?

BROMLEY: Hey, Deborah, could you repeat that question again? We`re having some weather here in our area.

NORVILLE: I heard that big thunderclap, and I trust that you are in a safe place where you`re not in danger because if you`re not, that`s not a good thing. We want you to stay safe.

No, in the discussions in the days since Holly`s disappearance, obviously, the family is wracking their brain, what might she have said? Might she have ever seemed ill at ease, perhaps someone was stalking. Is there anything that`s come up since that makes you think that this now, in 20/20 hindsight, could have been significant?

We have just lost our feed. Unfortunately, Mother Nature has taken its toll and disrupted our communications with Tennessee. So we thank Kevin Bromley, if he can hear us, for being with us and we appreciate his information.

NORVILLE: All right. Kevin Bromley is back with us, and we`re going to let you get back in out of the rain. But I wanted to ask one more question, sir, before we leave you tonight. Holly`s been described as a person with an angelic voice, a smile that would light up a room. Is she the trusting sort of person that would have gone innocently with someone who said, There`s someone in distress, you`re a nursing student, can you help? Could that possibly have happened?

BROMLEY: Well, I mean, we don`t know that to be certain. But you know, to just echo what you said about Holly, she is extremely kind and she`s extremely compassionate and a caring person. And yes, she is a nursing student, and you know, that`s why she was in the field because she is such a caring person. But to say that`s why she, you know, went with no resistance, I can`t say.

NORVILLE: Well, we hope that in very short order, Holly herself will be able to answer those questions. Kevin Bromley, thank you for being with us.

Hickman Co. Case Connected To Holly Bobo?
Centerville Woman Escapes Abductor In January
POSTED: 11:38 am CDT April 21, 2011
UPDATED: 11:50 am CDT April 21, 2011

CENTERVILLE, Tenn. -- The search for a 20-year-old Decatur County woman is leading authorities to the Tennessee River on Thursday.
While crews look for any signs of her in the water, a possible clue may also be 50 miles away in Hickman County.

Investigators are now looking into whether an attempted abduction in Centerville is connected to Holly Bobo, who has been missing for more than a week.
Heather Sullivan said in the early-morning hours, three months ago, a tall, skinny man grabbed her arm as she stepped out of her home. However, the lamp she was holding fell and shattered, scaring him off.
 ::snipping2::
"We'll look at all possibilities. We’re not going to have tunnel vision to anything or anybody. We’ll look at all possibilities and all persons," said Mark Gwyn, the director of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.
 ::snipping2::

NOTE:   This was also mentioned on NG's show last night - the main question I was waiting to hear is if this man wore camo type clothing & it wasnt asked.

Holly Bobo vigil raises spirits of searchers
Candlelight prayers help renew resolve of volunteers, investigators
12:03 AM, Apr. 21, 2011   
http://www.jacksonsun.com/article/20110421/NEWS25/104210309/Holly-Bobo-vigil-raises-spirits-searchers?odyssey=nav|head

PARSONS — A thunderstorm knocked out power but didn't dampen the spirits of hundreds of people during a prayer vigil Wednesday night for missing nursing student Holly Bobo.
 ::snipping2::
Bobo family representative Kevin Bromley said they're thankful for the sacrifices made by people since her disappearance on April 13. The family has been able to continue through a difficult situation because of the community and their faith in God, he said.

"Words cannot express the overwhelming love from our community and across the nation," Bromley said. "We appreciate the countless prayers that have been lifted up for our daughter Holly."

He also read a message from her family directed to Bobo.

"Holly, if you can see this or hear this wherever you are rely on God's strength and know we love you and we are doing everything we can to find you," Bromley said.

Bobo was last seen after her brother said he saw her talking to a man outside their Darden home. The brother said he thought it was her boyfriend and did not become alarmed until he went outside and saw blood.
 ::snipping2::
While law enforcement continues the search today, volunteers will return Friday after taking a day to rest. Tennessee Highway Patrol Lt. Brad Wilbanks said there has been trememdous cooperation in the efforts from law enforcement, county officials and the community.

"This is day eight-y'all are tired, we're frustrated, we haven't brought Holly home yet," he said. "We're going to bring Holly home."
 ::snipping2::
Bobo is described as having long, blond hair. She is 5 foot 3 inches tall and weighs about 110 pounds. She was last seen wearing a pink T-shirt and light blue jeans.

The abductor is described as a white man about 5 feet 10 inches to 6 feet tall and weighing 200 pounds.

Anyone with any information on the abduction is asked to call the Decatur County Sheriff's Office at (731) 852-3703 or 1-800-TBI-FIND.

Thanks Chi Monkey

Why did the "official" account of Clint's story revealed to media regarding the happenings encompassing the morning of April 13th keep changing?

1.  Holly was abducted furing a home invation?
2.  Clint witnessed Holly being assaulted?
3.  Clint witnessed Holly being dragged?
4.  Clint witnessed Holly being led away?

Was the blood discovered by Clint or investigators?

Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt

Holly Bobo Abduction: Week-in-review
Wed., April 13, Day 1: Recap from Decatur County Sheriff


<snipped>

Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt announced on April 13 that Holly Bobo had been abducted from outside her home that morning. It was initially reported that she’d been abducted during a home invasion.

He said Holly was living with her parents and that she left for school between 7 and 7:30 a.m. every morning. He said she attended school at the UT Martin campus in Parsons.

“At approximately 7:30 [a.m.] this date we received a call on Swan Johnson Road of a young lady there that had been abducted supposedly,” Sheriff Wyatt said.

When asked who saw Holly being abducted Sheriff Wyatt said, “It was a neighbor that lives just up the road there from the house. She didn’t see it but heard the screams of the young lady as she was leaving the house.”

Asked if any evidence was recovered from the scene that he could speak of Sheriff Wyatt said, “We have the TBI Violent Crimes Scene on the scene going through the house and going through the scene at this time. We went to the scene immediately. We’re tracking down every lead that we’ve got.”

There were questions as to why so many law enforcement agencies, including federal agents from the FBI and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI), became involved in Holly’s case on day one. Sheriff Wyatt said they were taking every precaution that they knew to take.

“At this time,” he said, “whatever it might be, then that’s what we’re trying to prepare for.”

Sheriff: No suspects in abduction of Tenn. student
updated 4/15/2011 4:04:45 PM ET


WSMV TV earlier reported that Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt said investigators found the blood in searching the Bobo's home.

Some 300 people gathered on Thursday morning to resume the search after volunteers searched the rural area around her home Wednesday.

Bobo's 25-year-old brother told investigators he saw a man dragging her from the carport and toward a wooded area on Wednesday morning, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said.

The brother said he witnessed the assault from inside the home, located in a rural area about 100 miles northeast of Memphis.

Officials said two 911 calls were made Wednesday morning, one by the brother and another by a woman policy did not identify.

If Clint is revealing the truth about the events encompassing the morning of April 17th ... he would know beyond a doubt whether or not it was Drew he observed from behind talking with his sister on the morning of April 13th.  His hunting buddy!  His sisters boyfriend!

I can only conclude that his backtracking in regards to implicating Drew may be a sign of a guilty conscience.  I could be wrong.

Is Holly Bobo abduction linked to other kidnapping attempt?
Posted by Edecio Martinez


Heather Sullivan of Hickman County reported that a tall, skinny man in a gray hooded jacket grabbed her arm as she stepped out of her home early in the morning, but when the glass top of a lamp she was holding fell and shattered, the potential kidnapper ran away.

"I was scared. I was numb. I couldn't move. I couldn't say anything or do anything," said Sullivan according to local station WSMV.

Sullivan called police, who searched the woods. No one was found, and Sullivan said she hasn't seen the man since.

While police initially believed an abductor dragged Bobo, 20, away as she left for school last Wednesday, investigators now suspect it was a community member who led Bobo into the woods near her home.


Mark Gwyn, director of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, said authorities will look at all possibilities.

Two more recent cases of Missing, Young Tennessee Girls

As reported TODAY in the above story, they have found out about an attempted abduction in Centerville, TN (Hickman County) which happened a few months ago, AND I searched and found a report about another recent case of a hijacked and missing Teacher in Shelbyville, TN. It seems to me that both cases have similar characteristics ..... search it yourself and see.

And this info, it appears, came independently from Centerville and Shelbyville sources, and not from the TN State Investigation Bureau.

Wouldn't this be a logical first place to look (plus the Local Sex Offender List) ??
What the hell is going on ??

“At approximately 7:30 [a.m.] this date we received a call on Swan Johnson Road of a young lady there that had been abducted supposedly,” Sheriff Wyatt said.
"When asked who saw Holly being abducted Sheriff Wyatt said, “It was a neighbor that lives just up the road there from the house. She didn’t see it but heard the screams of the young lady as she was leaving the house.”

TBI said Clint says he saw her being led away. no screams...

Thanks so much StarMonkey

I am like a kid in a candy story with all these articles.  I scanned but will read them all later.  Hubby and I are about to fill plastic colored Easter eggs for hunting by grandkids.  As with Valentines ... daughter suggested a video instead of chocolate but she was talking into my deaf ear.

Producer for NG was just on HLN and reported again that Clint thought Holly was talking to her boyfriend & added that he is a hunting buddy of Clint's.  Reported that investigators have been targeting certain areas & over the phone TBI Director Gwyn stated that they are following every lead & similar possible crime.  I caught the tail end of it as I was taking a time out for a manicure, just finished my gel overlay & now deciding on design Ill finish tonight.   Vinnie mentioned that NG will have Holly's case on again tonight.

If Clint is revealing the truth about the events encompassing the morning of April 17th ... he would know beyond a doubt whether or not it was Drew he observed from behind talking with his sister on the morning of April 13th.  His hunting buddy!  His sisters boyfriend!

I can only conclude that his backtracking in regards to implicating Drew may be a sign of a guilty conscience.  I could be wrong.

Heavy camo & a hat would not lead me to conclude that from a distance or that hour (7:30AM).  I respectfully disagree.

Is Holly Bobo abduction linked to other kidnapping attempt?
Posted by Edecio Martinez


Heather Sullivan of Hickman County reported that a tall, skinny man in a gray hooded jacket grabbed her arm as she stepped out of her home early in the morning, but when the glass top of a lamp she was holding fell and shattered, the potential kidnapper ran away.

"I was scared. I was numb. I couldn't move. I couldn't say anything or do anything," said Sullivan according to local station WSMV.

Sullivan called police, who searched the woods. No one was found, and Sullivan said she hasn't seen the man since.

While police initially believed an abductor dragged Bobo, 20, away as she left for school last Wednesday, investigators now suspect it was a community member who led Bobo into the woods near her home.


Mark Gwyn, director of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, said authorities will look at all possibilities.

Two more recent cases of Missing, Young Tennessee Girls

As reported TODAY in the above story, they have found out about an attempted abduction in Centerville, TN (Hickman County) which happened a few months ago, AND I searched and found a report about another recent case of a hijacked and missing Teacher in Shelbyville, TN. It seems to me that both cases have similar characteristics ..... search it yourself and see.

And this info, it appears, came independently from Centerville and Shelbyville sources, and not from the TN State Investigation Bureau.

Wouldn't this be a logical first place to look (plus the Local Sex Offender List) ??
What the hell is going on ??

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-504083_162-20056237-504083.html#comments

They have talked to area listed SO's and TBI Director Gwyn did state that they are looking at all possibilities including similar crimes.   I heard him say it personally in a phone interview on HLN today.

Someone commented that they thought the mother (Karen Bobo) had called 911 even though the sheriff said there was only a call from the neighbor and the brother (Clint). I agree that it was reported that the mother called 911. Seems like this is yet another example of an erroneous report. Fortunately it does not appear to be too significant.

LE has said that neither the brother nor the boyfriend is a suspect or a POI. But this is really not all that revelatory ... especially when LE makes it quite clear that they have not cleared anyone at this time. In recent years no one seems to be named a suspect or POI until an arrest is imminent.

I must admit that it is difficult for me to point the finger of suspicion at the brother.

Can anyone really consider him as a suspect after all that has been reported? I don't know what time the last parent left that morning. Regardless, that is a very small window of opportunity to have been a likely suspect. If it is true that he did not hear the scream that could be troubling - unless he was in the shower and/or he heard the scream and it simply wasn't reported by either the media or LE.

As to the boyfriend (Drew), his involvement seems less clear. LE reported his whereabouts were confirmed and that he has an alibi. While I would like to hear more specifics, I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt unless something is reported that makes this alibi less believable.

I wanted to post this comment from Clints friend.. the last comment re what Clint said happened. this scenario was also on the Nancy Grace show from someone that reported this to the show (cant remember who it was a family member or friend though) - could it be true that Clint thought he saw Drew coming from the woods at 7:30 to show her a turkey? I mean why would he come to take her into the woods to show her a turkey does that make sense?
 
again this tells me something is wrong that Clint should have heard her scream or known something was wrong IMO.

Holly's mother was at work, along with Holly's aunt (Whitney Duncan's mother).  They are both teachers at an elementary school.  Ive heard the same that Drew has an alibi & we'll just have to wait to hear more about him, but I do not think Clint or Drew are responsible in any capacity whatsoever for Holly's abduction.

Another account of where Holly's mother was can be found here in the comments:

http://abcnews.go.com/US/comments?type=story&id=13371580

Jolie, that's inaccurate; the mother was already at school (she's a teacher). ot sure why tis got repoted wrong, but three of my kids were present when she got the news. Her aunt is also a teacher there (and singer Whiney Duncan's mother). Most of the teachers left to go assits and subs were called in... but the mother was at the school when this happened, not watching.BTW the top suspect has made countless threats against her and every guy she has dated lately... and he has some pretty disturbing stuff on his Facebook page. This doesn't mean he's guilty, but at least it gives the police a suspect. Since they can't find him, chances are, in a town this size, they are looking for the right guy!

Just a side note, the media was wrong to ever say "home invasion," it was known from the first report to police that he was apparently laying in wait for her as she went outside to get in her car to go to class, and grabbed her outsideof the house. The media is just reporting anything it thinks will get attention wothout regard for the actual facts. Those of us who are on the ground, searching, feeding volunteers, and supporting this heartbroken family any way we can know better than to believe everything we read... all of the outside observers should know that, too.

GET YOUR FREAKING FACTS STRAIGHT!!! Before you people go name calling and making wild accusations, get your facts straight. I know this family, and they would have done anything within their power to save Holly!! 3 of my daughters were at school with her mom when she got the news, and they will never forget the blood-curdling scream she let out. My heart breaks for them, and our family is doing everything we can to help the family and the search crews. Thank you, "readitnow" for trying to explain ACTUAL facts in case ANY readers out there are interested. Fo rthoseof you who don't live in the middle of forested no-man's land, you cnnot imagine how fast a person can disappear into thickforest with undergrowth. Try this: look at Googlemaps or mapquest, pull up "swan Johnson Road, and look at the satellite photos of the area. As you zoom out a bit, you will see nearby Natchez Trace, a state park that is nothing but wilderness. Don't make judgments without the facts, please!

Holly Bobo Abduction: 3,000 attend vigil, searchers will be out in force Friday
April 21st, 2011 9:06 pm ET
Isabelle Zehnder
Missing Persons Examiner


PARSONS, Tennessee (Isabelle Zehnder reporting) -- Nothing could stop some 3,000 people in Decatur County – not pouring rain, not power outages – from gathering together for a candlelight and prayer vigil to mark week one of Holly Bobo’s abduction from outside her Parsons, Tennessee home - volunteers are expected to be out in force again Friday, looking for clues into Holly's disappearance.

 ::snipping2::


Last Wednesday morning Holly did the same thing she did every day – she headed off to school at about 7:30 a.m. Her 25-year-old brother, Clint Bobo, saw her being led into the woods outside their home by a man dressed in full camo. Clint believed the man was Holly’s boyfriend, Drew.

Police surmise now that Holly was forced to walk into the woods by her abductor, fearing for her life.

Many people who have read Holly’s story have commented that they would find it odd to see a man outfitted in camouflage clothing at 7:30 in the morning. But to those living in Decatur County, there’s nothing odd about it.

Sometime later Clint went outside and noticed Holly’s car still in the driveway and blood on the ground. He became alarmed and immediately called 911.

Another 911 call was made by a neighbor who claimed she heard Holly scream. Some have questioned why she was the only one to hear Holly screaming.

 ::snipping2::


TBI spokeswoman Kristin Helm said in an email to me on Wednesday that they are not going to release information about who has taken a polygraph test.

As long as this is an active investigation, much information in this case will be held close to the chest and not released to the public. This is not unusual.

I'm confused like everyone one on all the contradictions. I believe Clint is innocent in all this.. I just don't understand why things are so scrambled in all of the reports. Is Clint afraid, was he told to change his story by LE because of the sensitivity of the situation? I do believe he thought it was Drew, and she was screaming,he saw her being drug into the woods, maybe he heard her scream? Maybe he called 911 earlier than what was reported... I am very open minded. I just don't understand several bits and pieces,like why would Drew show her a turkey in the woods? I don't know anything about hunting so I ask,any one know if that seems normal? Or would he pull up with the Turkey to show her? Lots of thoughts goin through the mind..

Janet, there is no report that Holly was with her boyfriend, Drew (I stated why his last name should be withheld but it was ignored).  The only thing reported was that Clint "thought" it was her boyfriend only later to find out something had to be wrong when he saw her car & the reported blood.

The sun is NOT the only issue to consider.

I havent seen anything about a hat either, but its typical when in camo but yes we dont know if this person indeed wore a hat.

BOTH Clint and Drew were cleared but then the TBI decided not to exclude anyone & as a matter of fact are in the process of re-interviewing all parties known.   They have not necessarily "flip flopped" as you worded it.   They have recently stated that they are treating Clint as an eyewitness.  They also stated quite clearly that they have no POI or suspect in this case thus far.   It is not uncommon & I wouldnt assume anything by it.  This team of LE is leaving no stone unturned & are doing an impeccable job in this criminal investigation, as it should be.    They are keeping things close to the chest & I think they are being very wise in doing so given the circumstances of the case.

Benton County Sex Offender Arrested after Stalking 2 Teens in Jackson
MONDAY, APRIL 18, 2011 2:25 PM
(http://midsouthnewz.com/images/stories/jasonnickell.jpeg)

Jackson, TN - The Jackson Police Department announced today that a Holladay man was arrested after allegedly stalking two 19 year old females on various occasions over the last two weeks.

Jason Everett Nickell, 39, of Holladay, TN, was charged with two counts of stalking.

According to reports, On April 6th at around 6 p.m., a 19-year-old Jackson woman was shopping inside the Old Hickory Mall.
 

The woman reported that a stranger had approached her and told how attractive she was. The man followed her in and out of several stores. This made her feel uneasy and she left the mall.

On April 7th around 8 p.m., the same 19-year-old woman was leaving Kohl's Department Store on Vann Drive when the same man pulled up next to her in a blue car and again began complimenting her on her appearance.
 ::snipping2::
On April 7 around 5:30 p.m., a stranger, driving a blue car, approached a different 19-year-old woman, who is a student, on the campus of Union University and began complimenting her.

The man further asked her if she knew what a fetish was and made a comment about her feet.

The woman walked away to her dorm room and noticed through the window that the car had pulled into a parking space closer to her dormitory. The woman contacted Union security. They responded and the man left.

Security was able to obtain a license plate number on the car that he was driving.

The woman remembered that the same man had been watching her intently as she walked across the parking lot of Target about a week earlier.

He continued to watch her when she exited the store about twenty minutes later.

Union security was integral in helping Jackson.......

I wish I had the ability to really describe what it's like to live in rural TN.  All I can think of tonight as I read about Holly's abduction are words to a song recorded by Jason Aldean. I've always liked the song (even though I don't always like country music) but as I've read speculations and innuendos this last week, those words have been magnified in my brain...especially the chorus:

"These are my people.  This is where I come from. We're giving this life everything we've got and then some.  It ain't always pretty...but it's real.  It's the way we were made...wouldn't have it any other way. These are my people."

It may be impossible to understand our culture unless you have experienced it. Small towns in the rural South are very similiar to families. We may talk about our own but we don't want anyone else to disrespect them. Of course, that courtesy doesn't extend to those who break the law but it is very disheartening to read of grieving family members having their integrity questioned.

How observant are any of us in any given moment when it's just something that appears to be normal? It's easy in hindsight to question the actions of another but if it seemed within the realm of the ordinary, would you have reacted differently?  Regardless of the outcome of this, that young man will never forget and probably never forgive himself for going about his normal routine that morning.  Men in general and most especially Southern men consider it a duty to protect the women of the family. I suspect it will take counseling for him to ever forgive himself for his assumptions that day and even with that, it won't come easy.

Folks in small towns like we have around here are not used to a major crime such as this. They certainly are not media savvy and I suspect that comments could have been made without the realization that they would be taken as gospel. My experience with any tragedy in a small town around here is that you do take it as part truth/part rumor unless you hear it from the source yourself. A simple choice of words can influence the whole tone of what is heard by another.  By the time that statement has passed through several voices, the entire premise may have changed.

Then, too, there is a transparency that I feel sure law enforcement felt the need to temper in this situation. I think that is why stories seemed to change and new information seemed less forthcoming. The professionals know what must be kept close to the vest and that everything must be done in such a fashion that will not jeopardize an arrest and conviction. We strongly believe in right and wrong and with emotions running so high, I suspect some things are not being shared publicly to prevent possible further tragedy.

I have full confidence in our law enforcement. I am impressed but not surprised at the community's outpouring of compassion and help. It's just the way of life around here. When a neighbor needs help, you help because you know the same would be done for you. It's not a question of influence or such. It's just the basic "love thy neighbor" mentality of our people. The wealth in our state is in the hearts of our people.

I can also tell you that should this not end well for Holly, the entire area will grieve with the Bobos. It's just our way of life here. That whole concept of taking a village to raise a child? We take it literally around here (and yes...we "raise" a child instead of rearing one.)

I do not know Holly nor her family personally but yet I feel as though I do because I know many just like them. Although I cannot begin to imagine their despair, I do know that their faith will sustain. Any tragedy such as this brings out the best and the worst in people.  I know they are feeling the love and prayers of many and I pray they will never read some of the things said on some of those social sites on the web.  It is surreal to read some of the evil things that have been posted on some of those pages.

As with many others, I continue to pray for Holly's return. May this be one abduction that ends well.

Thanks for bringing this perp arrest forward again. I do not think this was his first rodeo. I posted this also a few pages back and can not get this POS out of my mind. I really think this guy may have something to do with whatever happened to Holly. I just can't shake this feeling with this guy. I really do not think Clint or Drew had anything at all to do with this. My hinky meter is on someone exactly like this Jason Everett Nickell character. I wonder if he has some ties to Holly's town.

Good morning Monkey's,

I can't get over how the prep threw her lunch away. Yes, I am stunned anyone could hurt anyone and just take someone.

Back to the lunch, he simply threw the food away in the lunch box.  I would think he would have eaten the contents or

saved the food for later, if he were a loner, but he didn't, he threw the lunch away.  Mrs. B recognized (reportly) the lunch,

and said it was the lunch HB packed.  This tells me Perp either already ate and was not hungry, or a picky eater or

he lived at home and knew mom or granny would cook him up something later.  If this prep was a "mountain man" he

would have saved the food for later...my opinion's.

Personally, I think the unsub threw the lunch purse a good distance away from what he did to Holly quite on purpose to throw LE off his path.

Jason Everett Nickell went 41 minutes to 1 hour distant traveling time to stalk these young women from his home. Now from this POS home its apx. 40 minutes to the UT Martin Campus on N. Tennessee Ave. To get to his home he would have to cross over I-40 also taking Bible Hill Rd as a route. POS home is close to the Natchez Trace State Park & Forrest ..I agree about someone exactly like him or him is the dcharacter of this type of abduction. Like a said early they seek out their next victim around stores, convenient stores ect.

Why  :smt102 Cap?   Maybe the culprit must live closer to her residence?   Whoever this person is will be caught.  This community will not stop until this case is solved. 

Does her bro or family have a tree trimmer business at that residence?  I read that when I was gleaning  ::MonkeyCool::

Holly Bobo Abduction: 3,000 attend vigil, searchers will be out in force Friday
April 21st, 2011 9:06 pm ET
Isabelle Zehnder
Missing Persons Examiner


PARSONS, Tennessee (Isabelle Zehnder reporting) -- Nothing could stop some 3,000 people in Decatur County – not pouring rain, not power outages – from gathering together for a candlelight and prayer vigil to mark week one of Holly Bobo’s abduction from outside her Parsons, Tennessee home - volunteers are expected to be out in force again Friday, looking for clues into Holly's disappearance.

 ::snipping2::


Last Wednesday morning Holly did the same thing she did every day – she headed off to school at about 7:30 a.m. Her 25-year-old brother, Clint Bobo, saw her being led into the woods outside their home by a man dressed in full camo. Clint believed the man was Holly’s boyfriend, Drew.

Police surmise now that Holly was forced to walk into the woods by her abductor, fearing for her life.

Many people who have read Holly’s story have commented that they would find it odd to see a man outfitted in camouflage clothing at 7:30 in the morning. But to those living in Decatur County, there’s nothing odd about it.

Sometime later Clint went outside and noticed Holly’s car still in the driveway and blood on the ground. He became alarmed and immediately called 911.

Another 911 call was made by a neighbor who claimed she heard Holly scream. Some have questioned why she was the only one to hear Holly screaming.

 ::snipping2::


TBI spokeswoman Kristin Helm said in an email to me on Wednesday that they are not going to release information about who has taken a polygraph test.

As long as this is an active investigation, much information in this case will be held close to the chest and not released to the public. This is not unusual.



Could it be that the message of Easter ... the death/resurrection/assention of Holly's Lord and Saviour ... be the catalyst for truth encompassing the happenings on the morning of April 13th.

Janet

++++

Romans 10:9-10

If you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with your heart you believe and are put right with God, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.

What I don't get about that is she called at 7:30.Drew called later on. So if he saw her leaving with a guy then he should have heard it Before he called if neighbor heard it earlier at 7:30 when Holly was leaving for class. Allegedly Clint saw What he thought was Drew coming from the woods to show her a Turkey (reported from Nancy Grace show)

Now another abduction case is reported closeby in Centerville, TN, more than a week after Holly went missing. Also, I did some Internet searching and found another recent case of a hijacked and missing Teacher in Shelbyville, TN. All of these cases have similar characteristics, it seems to me (young, beautiful ladies with blonde hair). I would think that these are the first things that the investigators would look at (as well as the local Sex Offenders list). Yet this info, it appears, came independently from Centerville and Shelbyville sources, and not from the TN State Investigation Bureau. What the hell is going on ??

I read this morning..http://www.knoxnews.com/news/topic/tennessee-bureau-of-investigation/

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation continues to investigate multiple leads regarding the disappearance of a Decatur County nursing student reportedly abducted from her home.

I don't know what to think description is different than what was report from the Sheriff.. IMO they are searching the area around Nickells
area where he lives on Liberty Church Rd..

snipped...

Tennessee Highway Patrol Lt. Brad Wilbanks said Friday that about 500 volunteers were searching a more narrowly defined area after authorities ruled out territory that has been thoroughly examined for any evidence in Holly Lynn Bobo's abduction. The 20-year-old was seen being led away from her home on April 13 by a man wearing camouflage clothing.

Wilbanks said the search area was completely remapped Thursday by Decatur County Emergency Management Director Kevin Cagle.

"He located other areas that we need to thoroughly search and that's what we're doing (through the weekend)," Wilbanks said.

Wilbanks says authorities hope to be confident by Sunday evening that the local area has been completely searched. If Bobo is not found, the scope of the search will be expanded, perhaps nationwide, he said.

Local Search Team Assisting in Search for Bobo
April 22, 2011 Leave a Comment

Members of the Four Rivers K-9 Search, Rescue and Recovery Team, based in Symsonia, are on their way to Decatur, TN to assist in the search for Holly Bobo.

Bobo was last seen on April 13 as she was being led away outside her home in Decatur by a man wearing camouflage clothing.

Tennessee Emergency Management officials contacted the team for help in the search Friday.

Chief Sandra Green along with five other team volunteers are currently en route to Decatur to assist in the search efforts. Five of the team’s trained canines specializing in cadaver, tracking/trailing and air scent will also be used in searching for Bobo.

Four Rivers K-9 Team volunteers will also be sent to Tennessee within the next 24 hours to search for Bobo along with three other qualified search dogs.

Holly Bobo: FBI says "led away" not dragged through carport
April 15th, 2011 1:28 pm ET


<snipped>

According to the source, Holly had two ex-boyfriends.  One from a few days ago and the other, she had a restraining order against, because he threatened to kill her.  Holly left the house to go to school and her brother heard her arguing with her ex-boyfriend who was dressed in camo, outside the home.  He saw them both walking towards the wooded area of the yard, and he went back to what he was doing.  About an hour later he noticed his sister's car was still in the driveway.  He called his parents, a friend of Holly's and then the ex-boyfriend, and then the police.

Holly's ex-boyfriend was at work earlier and then left and he has not been seen since.

Good morning Monkey's,

I can't get over how the prep threw her lunch away. Yes, I am stunned anyone could hurt anyone and just take someone.

Back to the lunch, he simply threw the food away in the lunch box.  I would think he would have eaten the contents or

saved the food for later, if he were a loner, but he didn't, he threw the lunch away.  Mrs. B recognized (reportly) the lunch,

and said it was the lunch HB packed.  This tells me Perp either already ate and was not hungry, or a picky eater or

he lived at home and knew mom or granny would cook him up something later.  If this prep was a "mountain man" he

would have saved the food for later...my opinion's.

Personally, I think the unsub threw the lunch purse a good distance away from what he did to Holly quite on purpose to throw LE off his path.

Why  :smt102 Cap?   Maybe the culprit must live closer to her residence?   Whoever this person is will be caught.  This community will not stop until this case is solved. 

Does her bro or family have a tree trimmer business at that residence?  I read that when I was gleaning  ::MonkeyCool::

The father has one listed

Wait, let me clarify that...I meant it in that it would be a shock versus its not possible.   If a guy was distraught enough that she would not return his feelings & saw there was no way they would be together, yea that is possible.

First off, I suggest any one who is going to comment shouold take the time to read the other comments on the story so you aren't just repeating what others have said and focusing on the information that has already been explained as being false. As for the ex with the restraining order, he is no longer missing, and was at work this evening. THE MOTHER WAS AT WORK, I live with three eye (and ear) witnesses to this fact, as I mentioned before. The brother IS NOT INVOLVED, not even suspected. Bustogusto- I know you had the best of intentions, but it sounds like the information you got may have passed through too many people, because some of what you posted contradicts what is known at the scene to be fact, directly from the family and those investigatng the case. But more importantly, at least you knew not to blindly accept the media's version of things.Catrocky 22- what kind of idiot are you that YOU can't even read the facts as posted by actual witnesses and people on the scene? To even make a comment like that proves you aren't worthy to have a platform like the Internet that subjects other people to your stupidity. This family is suffering, and you don't know a damn thing about them or this case. Morriswest- I certainly hope your comment about the accuracy of the news media was intended as sarcasm and that no adult is foolish enough to actually believe the the media would never lie, distort the truth for ratings, or jump to sensational conclusions.And to all of "I would of..." yeah, I guess you would've, and your sister would have a bullet through her brain, instead of hope of surviving, but I guess you think you would be faster than a bullet from the gun to her head, right? Or did you even consider that? Oh wait, that's right, you didn't know about that because you don't know the facts in the case!Don't assume you know everything, or in this case, anything, just because you read some of the incomplete and outright false information from the media.


NOTED:
This person clearly is emotional & getting very frustrated by rumors and media reports.   I would also imagine that LE is aware of this person that allegedly is an ex & had a restraining order

if this is true then i doubt the murder-suicide thing (obviously) i really do think that the ex that she has the restraining order on is the perp and i think his family is aware of it and may be covering for him in multiple ways

FWIW, here is Clint's timeline as best as I can tell.

Clint first notices Holly and the perp near the edge of the wooded area. I don't believe he actually watched them walking away from the house .. but instead noticed them from a distance as they approached the wooded area. I'm guessing this all took place at, or slightly before, 7 am.
Concluding from a distant view that it is her bf Drew, he goes and takes a shower. Some reports suggested he may have heard the scream as he turned the water off shortly before 7:30 and this is what caused hom to run outside to check on her. But this is unconfirmed.
It was at approximately this time (i.e. 7:20-7:30) that the neighbor heard the scream and then called 911.
Anyway after his shower (and after the scream) he goes outside and notices her car is still parked. It was at this time that he also noticed a "small amount" of blood on the driveway (or in carport).
Out of concern for Holly he calls his mother, Drew and 911 in no particular order.
LE showed up at the house shortly before 8 am.
++++++
As you can see there are entirely innocent explanations for why he did not hear the scream. Why he did not try to call Holly is still an open question - unless he did and it wasn't reported.

There has been mention that Clint and her mother did try to call Holly, its just not being discussed by LE and we do not have official confirmation nor have the 911 calls been released to the public.

I cannot help but think time is running out for Holly.  Things are very wrong in our world today.  I am sending up my prayers for all the missing, with hope they will come home and receive justice.

It would make sense that Clint would have called Holly on her cell prior to anybody else when he realized that there may be a problem.  He had allegedly witnessed her walk into the woods with a person he had assumed was her boyfriend and ... a short time later her vehicle still in the carport.

However ... I have yet to read a media report ... an official spokesperson quote ... that Holly was immediately called.

Why?

Holly Bobo: Friday Search Update... Video

http://www.wreg.com/news/wreg-bob-friday,0,1689775.story?track=rss

FAST FACTS:

    * Search expands to new parts of Natchez Trace State Park
    * Authorities are asking for 1500 volunteers a day over the weekend
    * Family and friends still believe Holly is alive


(Memphis 4/22/11) Investigators had most search parties scouring Natchez Trace State Park on Friday, including a couple of new areas they hadn't yet tried.

They also had people retracing steps in places they had already been, to make sure nothing was missed.

Close to 800 volunteers reported to help on Friday during daylight, falling short of the 1500 authorities asked for each day of the holiday weekend.


The only item found that's been confirmed to be Holly's is her white lunch bag. That was found a few days after she was seen being led away from her house by a man in camouflage.

Why did the "official" account of Clint's story revealed to media regarding the happenings encompassing the morning of April 13th keep changing?

1.  Holly was abducted during a home invasion?
2.  Clint witnessed Holly being assaulted?
3.  Clint witnessed Holly being dragged?
4.  Clint witnessed Holly being led away?

Was the blood discovered by Clint or investigators?

Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt

Holly Bobo Abduction: Week-in-review
Wed., April 13, Day 1: Recap from Decatur County Sheriff


<snipped>

Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt announced on April 13 that Holly Bobo had been abducted from outside her home that morning. It was initially reported that she’d been abducted during a home invasion.

He said Holly was living with her parents and that she left for school between 7 and 7:30 a.m. every morning. He said she attended school at the UT Martin campus in Parsons.

“At approximately 7:30 [a.m.] this date we received a call on Swan Johnson Road of a young lady there that had been abducted supposedly,” Sheriff Wyatt said.

When asked who saw Holly being abducted Sheriff Wyatt said, “It was a neighbor that lives just up the road there from the house. She didn’t see it but heard the screams of the young lady as she was leaving the house.”

Asked if any evidence was recovered from the scene that he could speak of Sheriff Wyatt said, “We have the TBI Violent Crimes Scene on the scene going through the house and going through the scene at this time. We went to the scene immediately. We’re tracking down every lead that we’ve got.”

There were questions as to why so many law enforcement agencies, including federal agents from the FBI and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI), became involved in Holly’s case on day one. Sheriff Wyatt said they were taking every precaution that they knew to take.

“At this time,” he said, “whatever it might be, then that’s what we’re trying to prepare for.”

Sheriff: No suspects in abduction of Tenn. student
updated 4/15/2011 4:04:45 PM ET


WSMV TV earlier reported that Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt said investigators found the blood in searching the Bobo's home.

Some 300 people gathered on Thursday morning to resume the search after volunteers searched the rural area around her home Wednesday.

Bobo's 25-year-old brother told investigators he saw a man dragging her from the carport and toward a wooded area on Wednesday morning, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said.

The brother said he witnessed the assault from inside the home, located in a rural area about 100 miles northeast of Memphis.

Officials said two 911 calls were made Wednesday morning, one by the brother and another by a woman policy did not identify.

In some cases you would probably hear it, TBI and other LE agencies (massive operation in place) is chosing to keep their investigation close to the chest & for a very strategic reason.    We've discussed this before,  every case is different and in certain circumstances the information being withheld outweighs the publics right to know, it really is that simple.   To add to that often due to several LE agencies working a case, media misinformation, sensationalism, fabrications by others, even politics, things get even more convoluted which confuses the public further.  It is frustrating but the way I look at it is finding a missing person & catching the person responsible is paramount so not knowing all the facts right from the start or on a continuous basis takes a back seat.   There has been occasions due to obvious reasons I am aware of info but cannot share it until it would be officially discussed & it is difficult to not want to share it but I respect the protocol & reasons they are in place in any given case.  Given the enormity of this investigation, I have no doubt that A) Holly will be found B) the responsible party will be caught C) the public will learn the details we're waiting to hear. 

What is even more difficult to comprehend is what given the circumstances of this case this family is going thru right now, shared with way too many other families.  When I personally put myself in Holly Bobo's family shoes as best as I can imagine things get put in prospective & my lack of patience becomes moot.   I know how I was when my son was heinously attacked in eighth grade in someone's private backyard by a group of juvenile thugs & he by the grace of God survived with multiple injuries that healed.  I was petrified, worried for his future well-being & angry...no I mean furious beyond words.   We had to wait days until all 4 were caught & taken into custody, meetings with the school principal after learning they ignored the zero tolerance policy due to the fact that one had previously brought a knife to school & should have been automatically expelled & 13 juvenile criminal court hearings later before a very disappointing minimal justice was served.  I'm extremely thankful it wasnt worse but its not to say there were a few months there that impacted all of us profoundly.   If I lost my own son senselessly due to a heinous crime I seriously do not know how I would have survived it & that's not a statement meant to be melodramatic.   When I see survivors such as John Walsh, Mark Lundsford, Diena Thompson, too many to count I again have to pause in gratitude that my family did not become a member of their group no one wants to be part of.   This and a few other significant reasons is why in whatever small way I can I have always done advocacy work in one way or another.

Hmmm...well then that ping would have to be known to have occurred after 7:30AM in order to positively state that it was after her abduction, and again that is coming from a source but not confirmed by TBI.   For that matter there are also rumors going around that her cell phone was recovered, again no comment from TBI on that either.   This "Urgent" from NG's blog is worded peculiar because Holly could have texted her boyfriend while she was still home & not going out the door which obviously would indicate she sounded fine...reading between the lines unless its a total fabrication that would also indicate that Drew showed LE his cell & you can bet they served a search warrant to the phone service to obtain the activity of Holly's cell.

Who knows....this post at pg 46 has this person talking about another rumor - a ton of this seems to me as a bunch of gossip but I continue to read for things that sound like what Ive been told otherwise.

Yeah a lot of new rumblings around the county and different rumors getting started. One girl even posted on Facebook that holly had been found and she was alive..which quickly got deleted after about half the county commented on it and told her to shutup.

I've had a couple of people swear one was made, but I've not heard anything elsewhere. People have said either one was made or don't know. They didn't find her, that's all I know for sure.

I agree that's an awfully long time to keep it quiet, especially since the TBI has emphatically said one hasn't been made.

There was a whole lot of smoke coming from the same area/person yesterday. I did think for sure we'd know a lot more than we do when I went to bed last night.

Very true.

The only problem I'm having with info is I have talked to people there that have been a part of finding something or been there when they thought they had a lead and were moving in. I know the TBI and other authorities hasn't told a lot that has happened, so for me it's becoming an issue of who and what to believe.

Trust me, I'm 10 times more frustrated when I tell you guys stuff and it proves to be false than you are.

Considering investigators did look for "drag marks" ... it would appear that Clint's original account of what took place on the morning of April 13th implied that he observed his sister being dragged into the woods.

Why the changing stories?

John Mehr - Spokesperson for the TBI

Holly Bobo ‘In Fear of Her Life’
April 16, 2011


Holly Bobo, 20, was confronted Wednesday by a man in hunting camouflage who forced her to go with him into the woods, said John Mehr, spokesman for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

“What we believe, and I’ll tell you he actually had an arm holding her and so we feel that she knew that she was in fear of her life so she was complying with his commands,” he told a news conference.

Mehr said investigators “did not see drag marks.” He added she was “not forcefully dragged and she’s like any other victim, maybe complying with her attacker, but she walked into the woods” outside her Pasrons, Tenn. home.

Bobo’s 25-year-old brother Clint watched from inside the home, but did not believe she was being abducted until later. He saw the stranger from behind and believed it was his sister’s boyfriend.

Her brother, said Mehr, “had reasons to believe [the man] was not an attacker,” and did not call 911 until he saw blood outside.

Despite the changing stories ... two days following the disappearance of Holly ... two days following Clint's belief that he observed Holly's boyfriend leading her into the woods ... two days following the discovery of blood that had yet to be analyzed ... Clint and Drew were distanced as persons of interest by John Mehr.  Mehr conceded that there were no other persons of interest.

It does not add up.

It is evident that the members of the community love and respect the Bobos and Scotts.  However ... considering the two obvious persons of interest were immediately ruled out by investigators ... do either family have influencial connections that may exist in "higher places".

Holly Bobo Followed Kidnapper into Tennessee Woods in 'Fear of Her Life'
PARSONS, Tenn. April 15, 2011

The officer said that neither Bobo's brother nor her boyfriend were suspects. "We are confident of that," he said.

But police have no leads to the identity of Bobo's abductor.

"There is not a person of interest at this time," he said.

Ask away Janet, I'm just telling you that its been discussed that both Clint & his mother tried to call Holly & I stated it has not been confirmed by them or LE as of yet.
[/quote]

Not to split hairs, but what I heard on HLN cable news is that "family and friends tried to reach Holly on her cell immediately after the abduction."

I wish the report would have mentioned Clint by name specifically. I should add that I do not think it is unreasonable to assume Clint was in the group "family and friends". I just wish there was more certainty ... at least on my part.

I agree.

It has been out there since the getgo that Karen Bobo taught elementary school students and Holly was a nursing student.  Although the term "self-employed" was not expanded on ... we now know that Dana Bobo was self-employed and ... Clint Bobo worked at nursing homes in the area.

Tomorrow is Easter.  The most celebrated event on a Christian's calendar.

Considering there were no witnesses to corroborate Clint's account regarding the events encompassing the disappearance of his sister ... in the process of elimination ... I believe the search should have been focused close to the home from the getgo.

Although Clint's account implies that the alleged abductor did not enter the home ... it appears that the Bobo's home was searched for evidence.  why not the property closest to the home?

As everyone grows physically weary, they all stay emotionally determined to bring Holly home safely.

T-shirts bearing the favorite scripture of Holly's mother were sold for the Holly Bobo Fund.

The proceeds are not going to the reward fund, but to Holly herself.

D'Lynn Burton, a close family friend and neighbor, helped sell the shirts. "Her mother asked me. When Holly comes home, she wants her to have some money so she can go on a vacation, or just treat herself with anything she wants."

So far 2,500 shirts have been sold at $12 apiece. ( =$30,000 )

Who knows where the money would go, but most importantly it should be used to bring her home to begin with first IMO. Or to give it to all the resources who paid for her reward money.

Something tells me this was taken entirely out of context.  I can think of no greater tunnel vision than that of a Mother whose child is missing.  Perhaps Mrs. Bobo expressed concern at the barrage of media that Holly will face and said she'd need a vacation.  I think even that would be an off-the-cuff remark because my guess is the last thing she would want is for her daughter to leave her sight for anything once she is home again.  I just don't for a minute believe that this TN teacher mom is focusing on money in any shape or form for anyone. The comment in this article seems totally out of character for what we have heard and read testified about this family. I just don't believe it...were they self-serving people, this community would not have reacted as they did.  It's a shame when media forgets its role is to report the news...not create it.

Under the circumstances it's possible a local business produced these t-shirts to assist and that they only expect to receive "their" cost or reimbursement for the actual shirt and are "donating" the printing costs. Since they would buy in bulk, I suspect the actual cost of the shirt is quite reasonable depending on the quality. I wouldn't be surprised if about 50% of the shirt is going into Holly's fund. It does seem odd, and it would be considerate to designate some of the t-shirt funds back to the community to help defer the costs to LE and to support all the volunteers involved in the search, but people do strange things under stressful situations. I just hope they find Holly soon and that she is safe...it's not looking good as more time passes.

Hello All!  Its been a while since I have posted, but I still read Kyron and Hailey threads daily.  The Holly story has hit close to home for me, actually I am just south from where Holly is from across the state line.  I too agree that the selling of shirts is completely out of character of what I have heard regarding this family.  Having said that there still are a few "kinks" for lack of a better word that keeps stumbling me.  I was hoping that each day the questions I still have will be answered by LE, TBI, FBI or somebody but it has not happened.  I pray that Holly is safe and all the questions people have will soon be answered.  Please everyone have a blessed Easter!   ::MonkeyAngel::

Kapp, I too look forward to reading your take on the search.  You will be blessed for going out and doing what I wished I could.  I still have some problems with the whole story, but it could be that TBI is only letting certain information out for a specific reason.  I would rather them be playing it close to the vest and me having questions than to give out too much information and mess up the case.  Anyway, just wanted to send Easter blessing to all!

Hundreds of people gathered at the Decatur County Fairgrounds Sunday morning to pray for Holly Bobo. She has been missing for a week and investigators believe she was kidnapped.

Volunteers have been working tirelessly to find her. They gathered this morning for a prayer service and a balloon release. Crews are expected to search all day Sunday.

What we know so far as fact:

    * Holly Bobo is missing.
    * Blood was found at the scene of the alleged abduction.
    * Everybody is a suspect.
    * Investigators have more than 200 leads but no persons of interest so far.
    * Investigators believe the abductor/perpetrator is a local to Darden, TN or the surrounding area. However, they are searching as far as the surrounding lakes with technology used to scan for bodies.

Here's what we need to know:

    * Darden, TN has an estimated population of under 1,000 people.
    * Parsons, Tennessee, which is only five miles east of Darden, has a population of roughly 2,500 people. This is a very small town, people.
    * Out of this 2,500 (est) population, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation lists 13 registered sex offenders in Parsons, Tennessee.
    * More than five of the 13 listed sex offenders in Parsons are listed as "violent," offenders.
    * Darden, TN only has one registered sex offender which is not listed as a violent offender.
    * Lexington, TN is only 10 miles from Darden. 50 sex offenders are registered in Lexington, TN.
    * Several sex offenders on the Lexington registry are "violent."

Good morning monkeys & I hope all of you are having a beautiful holiday.

As for me, my Easter is all about reflection & gratefulness.   Yesterday I witnessed the true spirit of humanity, an unprecedented outpouring of giving of ones self to aid those in need.  I left my home in the morning to join in the search for Holly Bobo, it was noted after a week of storms it was a beautiful warm sunny day with a ray of hope that the day would be fruitful.  As we traveled into Decatur County, TN we could sense the enormity of the task at hand.  The area is extremely dense with thick woods, homes spread out acres from each other spotted by many bodies of water as small as a narrow creek to several lakes.   As we got closer many of the homes & businesses were adorn with pink bows & various signs for Holly.

Upon arrival at the fairgrounds there even was assistance by volunteers that served as parking attendants, as we entered you'll notice from the pictures I posted last night that there was a large poster of beautiful Holly greeting us at the front door.  Directly in back of the center was the stage known to all of us from watching videos of the vigil that took place a few nights before, the pink balloons still up but beginning to deflate & another large poster of Holly.   There were tables from wall to wall with donations of various food & drinks plus a concession stand kitchen.   To the left were tables that offered everything a volunteer searcher could need before they left on their journey; bug spray, gloves, etc.   As I left a personal & organization cash donation at the assigned table people were pouring in to drop things off from store deliveries to neighbors with homemade donations, you name it.

I signed in and proceeded to get instructions, they stamped my hand & informed us that we had to check back in when the bus returned or else they would have had a search crew out looking for anyone that didnt sign back out.  We all were told that we would be in groups of 10, to spray down for bugs, etc.   I gathered a bottle of iced water & a snack while waiting for the next bus out.   

In the meantime, I spoke to quite a few people & got a good sense of what people thought & how they were feeling.   The building was filled with hope & determination the likes I have never seen.  Everyone I spoke to had nothing but the finest things to say about the entire Bobo family & literally gushed on what a fine young lady Holly is.  I spoke to a neighbor, a pastor, a local officer & friends of Holly's and not much to my surprise each and everyone of them felt that she was taken by someone in her past.   I was told privately a few details about a particular person but honestly I cannot share it right now so it doesnt compromise the investigation.  I also got a few answers to rumors going round, none of which should be shared at this time but one I can relay is both Clint & Holly's mother tried to call Holly.  Not a soul felt that she would ever run off for any reason whatsoever & not a mummer of inappropriate behavior on Holly, her family or her current boyfriend's behalves.   A few went so far to say that the law better find this person first...well you can imagine what followed.

The other day I posted a picture here provided by Will Nunley (WBBJ reporter) of a marine whom volunteered on his leave.   Now, I have the back story of this young man.   John came in from Cincinnati & what we didnt know by looking at the picture was that he stayed for an entire week, going back and forth on searches & slept right in the community center every night.   This is what this fine young man did with his down time of regular duties as a Marine....to this I say God bless our troops & why I am so proud as to be an Army mom.   In honor of him I'll repost his picture, the stranger that slept on the Decatur County Fairgrounds floor just so he could lend a hand.
(http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b152/mslaitte/CRIME-TRIAL/BOBOmarineVolunteer.jpg)

Time to get on the bus:   After enduring a few more pleas from my hubbie (physically couldnt search) I finally convinced him to go into town to find something to do for quite a few hours (bless his heart), told him I loved him & thanked him for putting up with his head strong wife.  It was time to board a yellow school bus with a big pink bow on the rear view mirror.  Within my crew was a woman named Tina whom is the mother of one of Holly's best friends, Brittany.   Tina's brother and wife came in from Chicago to help search.  We began our journey but not without a few glitches along the way.   At first we were assigned to go to a location off of Rt 40, as we got to a checkpoint we were told that we would be rerouted to 5 Forks Rd, a road that is above but leads to the Bobo home.   Those of us on the bus had to take our first pause for patience when we got to the next checkpoint at 5 Forks & were told we would be going to another area.  During the ride a few of us had a rather intimate conversation, Tina shared with me how her daughter and Holly both made two year plans of what they wanted to do.  Holly & Brittany went to HS together & then went on to nursing school.  She told me that Brittany is having a very difficult time & from what she described I gently suggested to her that it sounded as though she may have signs of PTSD, counseling will be sought.   Even this family had been contacted by several media outlets to speak to Brittany, Tina to date declined every request, wisely in my opinion.

Now, a curve I wasnt anticipating we began to travel on 5 Forks and then it became obvious to the locals on the bus that we were coming up on where the Bobo's live.   On that road it was pointed out to me where the neighbor that called 911 lived with a abandoned trailer in front & to the side on another piece of property.   I was informed that abandoned trailer was taken apart upside down by LE.  Tina then told me "okay, we're now going to come up on where Holly lives."  The homes in this area are at least 2 acres, some more apart from each other.  The Bobo home is on the corner with a long driveway leading to the house.  There is a mailbox on the left of the entrace & a wishing well on the right.   As we came up on it there was a LE block at the entrance of the driveway & a slight media presence.   It is my strong sense from being on the ground that it is highly likely that the neighbor heard Holly scream after she was already abducted & on route to parts unknown with it being very possible that her brother did not hear screams if they began at this point versus right on their property.   It was my belief prior & certainly now that there had to be some type of vehicle off in the distance of her home available to her abductor.

We turned left & stopped at the next command post.   LE handling coordinates came aboard the bus to give us instructions including very specific items we were to look for.  Among these items included a host of personal items such as clothing, etc., details I will not list at this time.  We were told to go 50 to 75 ft in from the road as this was a revisit to the area that had already been searched closer to the road.  We got out of the bus & were assigned to search an area that crosses the Bobo home, Myracle Town Road.  My crew of 10 took one side of the road & another crew of 10 took the other.   We spread out 6 to 10 feet apart, being mindful to have a person visible to the right & left of us at all times.  Most of us had a "walking stick" with us, trust me it came in handy.  It was so thick that without a GPS or compass you could easily feel lost quickly.  I had one personal scare when I came across a spot in front of a tree where the soil looked "black wet" unlike the ground around it & was about 3ft by 4ft wide.    I immediately looked for a source where water could be coming from because it wasnt in front of me, poked its very outside perimeter gingerly to check for a depth & called in my team captain to help me assess the spot.   Quickly, we discovered a crack, not even considered a creek by any stretch that water may have collected but called the command center just the same to have them come in to look at it, the reprieve from standing still & getting some water while waiting was welcomed but at the same time an overwhelming nerve racking few moments ensued.  The area was cleared & we moved on...phew.  Along our journey only one other possible thing we found that went in my "could be something, could be nothing" category, a long strap with a buckle (not a bungee but similar) green & white in color that was at the side of the road & ripped on one end.  I felt at its onset that it could easily be from any vehicle driving the road and it snapped but we called back the command post & they processed it to be taken with them just the same.

Now, you have to keep in mind that Im a Jersey born & raised girl, getting up there in age (hard to admit) in the midst of the deep south for a few years but certainly not extremely familiar with rural life or its elements, trust me it provided a few moments of humor in an otherwise daunting task & very somber occasion.  Ya know, like everyone around me was saying y'all and then suddenly Id instinctively come out with "hey yous guys" or "yo" or for some reason I came across a situation that had me typically saying "O madonna mia."  Needless to say, I'm running out to get a Zumba wii and dance exercise video because one doesnt realize how out of shape they are than previous years until they track thru thick bush & go up and down hill climbing over tree stumps and God knows...yea I'm feeling it today but I dont care when realizing its a day or so compared to a life.   I can't even begin to describe how it felt having in the back of our minds that we might stumble upon something we all feared, I guess God sent me not only to help but to provide a few moments of brevity much needed.

After what felt like a long day we were pulled back in to return to the fairgrounds.  Most of my crew was escorted back by a man who was a member of the Bobo's church in his van, the air conditioning was a God sent, I'm not gonna lie we were all spent.   There was more intimate discussion about Holly & her family as well as what was being perceived probably happened.   These conversations during the course of the day only affirmed my initial thoughts from the very beginning.  During the ride back there were moments of feeling let down that it appeared yet another day was going by with little to no answers & it would get quiet.   As we passed the Bobo home on our return I made the sign of the cross (Im Catholic) & from that we all instantaneously bowed our heads to say a silent prayer for her & her entire family.   We think we know how they must be feeling, but Id venture to say we can't fully comprehend the anguish. 

We arrived back at the fairgrounds amongst a few more crews beginning to return as well.   The tables were full of new dishes for the dinner hours & it was bustling with sweaty, tired, slightly frustrated but determined individuals.  We sat down to unwind for a bit & I introduced my hubbie to a host of people I met thorough out the day.   I cannot explain it but within one day I ended up feeling bonded to these selfless individuals as if I knew them much longer.  I exchanged my personal info with a few & mentioned that if needed I may return next weekend but in the meantime I was available in any way I could offer support & assistance.     It was time to spare my patient hubbie from hanging at the center & head home so we embraced the people we met, sharing a few shed tears & expressed what each of us knew we all felt without speaking a word.

May all of you be blessed this Easter & please keep the Bobo family in your thoughts & prayers

Your Capp (Paula)

Thank you so much, Capp.  I appreciate all you have done for this family.  I wish I could have been there right alongside of you.  I cannot tell you how much I admire you and all of the searchers.  God bless you on this Easter Sunday.  I pray that Holly is found soon.  This story is so very sad.

You are so articulate and I felt as if I was a part of the search.  Thank you for doing that.  I admire what you have done for this family who were strangers to you.  God bless.

I am expecting an Easter Miracle with what we just read......God be with her, her family and all those who love her and a HUGE thanks to all searchers but especially our own Monkey Capp. I used to go to the TN river in Parsons and Beech Lake in Lexington and it is so thick with brush, so many areas of water and the TN river with all the coves and extremely thick brush surrounding it scare me to death for someone missing in that area. I am so grateful you were able to share your experience with those who can't search and live too far away to search. God Bless You

Authorities: Lead in Bobo case fuels intensive search in northern Decatur County
5:29 PM, Apr. 24, 2011 

Law enforcement officials searching for Holly Bobo say they are looking into a lead that prompted an intensive search of Northern Decatur County.

Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt said the lead discovered sometime this morning or Saturday evening fueled their Northern Decatur County search, which would continue for another day. He would not comment on what the lead entailed but said law enforcement received a tip in the form of a phone call

PARSONS, Tennessee (Isabelle Zehnder reporting) -- On Easter Sunday a “significant” item has been recovered by volunteers in the past 12 hours in the search for Parsons, Tennessee missing nursing student, Holly Bobo. 

For the integrity of the investigation, authorities are not disclosing what the item is at this time.

WBBJ-TV News Anchor Will Nunley tweeted Sunday afternoon that according to dispatch, Decatur County rescue squad and volunteer firefighters just dispatched a specialized foot search.

Authorities have not assembled many new searches this late in the day, Nunley said.

Dispatch called for all available search teams on foot, a message that came from the Tennessee High Patrol at about 5:30 p.m.

The search organizer said, “This is the latest in the evening that a new search has been organized.”

Nunley tweeted, "We don't have time to waste" as searchers rushed to get on the bus to be shuttled to the new search location. "The volunteer center is all but empty as available crews rush to get on buses," he said.

My mind is racing because I know what we were told to look for.   TBI had already announced that she was wearing a pink shirt & jeans (I know what brand).   We were told to look for items that you would find in a purse (some rather specific) and I know what type of footwear & another item she may be wearing as well but I cannot expound further as to not compromise the investigation.

Between news that sounds encouraging and the "three little friends" I came home I guess Im in for another restless night.   As to my "three little friends" I coined them Larry, Moe & Curly as they met their demise for having the nerve to host on my person....ticks!

I just mapped the Eaton addy and the addy of the Bobo residence, looks almost like a straight shot east (if google maps are accurate) and ~ 3miles as the crow flies, I would bet anything it would be accessible by an ATV from what I know of that area....

LOL Capp, I stay confuzzled.......I know it's thru UT, but I have read so much I can't recall if it was in Martin or not. BUT was the search in fromt of the school in Parsons or Martin, that should help out a bit....for a while anyway.

From your post with Wills' tweets it must be the Parsons campus or extension of that campus nursing school.

"Investigators believe Bobo's abductor lives in or near the 20-year-old college student's town of Parsons, Tenn., and have asked her neighbors to report any unusual activity or a break in people's routine they noticed in recent days."

That's a statement that goes back to around April 18th.

Star, it specifically states "Investigators have said they believe Bobo's abductor lives in or near the 20-year-old college student's town of Parsons, Tenn.,"

Klaas, I denoted the same.

Also, this article is COMPLETELY WRONG about something else very specific....grrr

"Some of that key evidence includes the 20-year-old nursing student's lunch box found miles from her home. The other evidence being analyzed was found in the woman's driveway and includes blood on the ground and duct tape with blond hair stuck to it."

A group of volunteers walking along U.S. 641/Tenn. 69 today found an item near 100 Eaton St. as searchers combed the terrain in northern Decatur County on foot in the hunt for missing nursing student Holly Bobo.

100 Eaton is a concrete co.
Here is an article from 1 hr ago TBI confirms abducter lives in Parsons.
http://abcnews.go.com/m/story?id=13448569

Star, it specifically states "Investigators have said they believe Bobo's abductor lives in or near the 20-year-old college student's town of Parsons, Tenn.,"

Klaas, I denoted the same.

Also, this article is COMPLETELY WRONG about something else very specific....grrr

"Some of that key evidence includes the 20-year-old nursing student's lunch box found miles from her home. The other evidence being analyzed was found in the woman's driveway and includes blood on the ground and duct tape with blond hair stuck to it."

MY NOTE:  The duct tape with reported blonde hair on it was NOT found in Holly's driveway but on the side of a road (there is footage of it in local media reports-if memory serves ABC local) & it has not been confirmed if there was indeed blonde hair on it or that it was Holly's.   

Ok it actually said lives in the AREA.. sorry for the miss quote. I had to go back and read what Mark Gwyn wrote.. but he does say the person responsible lives in the area.

This article doesn't say that.  Did you post the wrong link?
Hi Klass,
I was quoting mark gywen who said "the person responsible for the disappearance lives in Parsons"
(Did I get it wrong) if so sorry about that.


I just didn't see that statement at all at either link.  I do remember it being said.

"The person responsible for Holly's disappearance lives in the area," said Mark Gwyn, director of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.  "Because of the terrain, you have to know where you're going, entrances and exits. We feel the person is in the community. We're asking the community if you know someone who has changed their routine, please let us know."


I think a lot of people have a good idea of who it may be.. but so many rumors and bad reporting who knows the truth..

Maybe the person has left her somewhere and going back?

As I've stated before, there is a ton of talk about who it MIGHT be & nothing has been confirmed by LE.   TBI Mark Gwyn NEVER said lives in Parsons but did state that they believe the person responsible lives "in the area" which by the way is rather spread out & doesn't just include Parsons.   As a matter of reference the Bobo's live in Darden.

The focus Sunday was on Holladay Road which connects Bobo's home where she was abducted and last seen alive to Interstate 40. Investigators believe the man who took her might have tried to get to the interstate as quickly as possible and that clues might lie on the side of the road. Volunteers search for anything that might have been thrown out the window or any item of Bobo's that might lead them deeper into a section of woods.

"Anywhere that's far enough to toss a bag, a purse, jewelry, keys, just something off into the woods," said Jason Greer with the Henderson County Rescue Squad. They are looking along about 30 miles of roads throughout three counties.

Our University of TN system is sometimes difficult to understand. If you hear someone say they attend UT, then they mean the granddaddy of them all...UT Knoxville.  Then there are satellite places (grandchildren) for that campus but they are all primarily in east TN unless you are near UT Chattanooga...which is a university in its own right in the TN system. I'm not sure if UTC has graduate level courses.

UTM is the University of TN at Martin...a college in west TN. It has several master's programs along with its 4-year degrees.  They also have what are called satellite campuses in west TN such as the Parsons campus. Plus, they often offer some college night classes in area high schools (not to be confused with the dual-credit courses offered to high school students). 

From what I've read, Holly was attending classes at Parsons and somewhere I read that she had begun her clinicals in a local hospital. (I have no idea where I read that but she was in uniform in at least one of the photos we have seen which they wear when they begin doing those.) My guess (and this is only a guess) based on her age is that she will probably finish her BSN or RN (if that's her goal) on the campus at Martin. That's generally the path nursing students take around here if they go beyond the LPN level. Of course, I do not know her specific plans but I have had several former students who followed this course of action.

It feels good to finally know something personally...my bachelor's, master's and post-graduate work is from UTM.

What even feels better though is the feeling that hope is rising again with these latest tweets. Prayers being said for Holly and those involved in finding her and prayers that anyone who knows anything about this will be so heavily convicted that they must do the right thing.

From what I was personally told by Tina, the mother of one of Holly's BFF's, Holly and her daughter both had two year plans & were embarking on their next one which was furthering her nursing studies.

I did find a video from yesterday John Walsh from Americas most wanted stated Clint Bobo has Not taken a polygraph! And he is a person of interest. He's not saying he thinks he may be involved but that he and the entire family should take a poly.

May have been home invasion.

I hate that the story changed. so I'm wondering if the kidnapper went inside and took Holly left Clint alone, didn't know Clint was there, or LE changed the story in the media for some reason? Or if Clint changed his story for some reason out of fear?
 I believe she was dragged away. Blood on the lawn maybe Clint tried to help and got hurt?

Search to continue another day after item retrieved, phone call received

Wyatt would not comment on what the lead entailed but said law enforcement received a tip in the form of a phone call.

Groups of volunteers combed terrain in northern Decatur County on foot. On Sunday, one group of volunteers walking along Tenn. 69 found something near Tri County Concrete Products at 100 Eaton St.

Authorities would not disclose the item or its significance in the search, and volunteers refused to comment.

In this community, neighbors can be acres apart given the large tracts of land owned by some families.

It was not anyone from his family that called 911 that I am aware of.

Good morning Monks--

I haven't commented on this before.  So sad.  What I don't understand is the different stories of the circumstances of her abuction.  If she were dragged into the woods and her brother saw it, why didn't he give chase?  I had four brothers.  I think if one or all of them saw me being kidnapped, they'd try to stop it.  (Or maybe not. LOL) Even if the kidnapper had her by the arm and pulling her toward the woods, it seems her brother would have at least gone out to see what was going on.  And the blood---If she were injured wouldn't he have seen it?  And the duct tape? I don't know.  Something's wrong here.  I'm not accusing the brother of anything.  It seems there are just too many different stories.  Depending on which one is correct, if any of them, it would indicate suspects.

Holly Bobo: John Walsh says, brother should take polygraph
April 24th, 2011 1:19 pm ET

 
<snipped>

John Walsh has been hosting AMW since 1998, and on April 23, he was on "Fox & Friends" on Fox News, and expressed his thoughts about the Holly Bobo case.

John said that AMW is working with the Sheriff's office and other agencies like TBI. He told Fox news that,

"The brother is not a suspect, but he is a person of interest because he was the only one that saw her taken. When my son was taken, I took a polygraph. Everyone needs to take a polygraph. You need to be illuminated and then help with the search," said John.  They are looking at the giant swamp by the house." he continued.  "Police can't rule out the fact that it could be a predictor or sex offender in that neighborhood. It's been two weeks now. What will break the case is someone who comes forward. I urge in her case for her parents to keep going to the media, the media is the key."

<snipped>

John was also on "Geraldo at Large" and Geraldo asked him if he had any question in his mind, and he said,

"Absolutely...Polygraph anybody that was the last person to see the missing person...polygraph anybody that loves them or has any information about them.  You have to eliminate the family.  The boyfriends, the lovers, the cousins, the uncles, everybody.  That is normal procedure, and if someone refuses a polygraph, then they don't really care or love that person."

Media Reports

Considering it was reported on NG last night that a cousin confirmed that Clint submitted and passed a polygraph ... I no longer suspect him of wrongdoing.  In other words ... I believe the claims of Holly's brother that imply he observed her outside from a window within the home talking/arguing with who he thought was her boyfriend.  He then observed them both walking towards the wood.  He was not concerned until he left for work a short time later and saw Holly's vehicle was still at home and there was a small amount of blood in the driveway.

Speculation:

I believe that whoever took Holly did not want to be spotted by her parents ... so he drove through the woods on/in a vehicle and parked it out of sight.  The parents left for work.  When Holly came out  ... he approached her near the home and ... attempted to discuss a relationship that was on the rocks.  Holly would not cooperate ... the young man became enraged and ... forced  her to accompany him into the woods to his vehicle.

It now appears that Clint's cousin who Nancy Grace producers were speaking to may not have been revealing the truth regarding Clint submitting to a polygraph.

If Clint has not submitted to a polygraph ... why not?

ALEXIS TERESZCUK, REPORTER, RADAROLINE.COM: .... And you know, Whitney, the cousin, the country music singer, she said adamantly the brother has been cleared. And authorities are saying that there is not -- no one has ruled, but she has been really very vocal about the fact that the brother absolutely is not a suspect.

DEBORAH NORVILLE, GUEST HOST Yes, she has, Alexis. And in fact, as I mentioned, we spoke with one of the Bobo cousins today and she told us that the day of the disappearance Clint, the brother, took a polygraph test and according to this cousin she says that he passed the polygraph.

BROMLEY: I don`t know that to be sure. Has the investigators said anything about that?

NORVILLE: Well, this is a family member who has told us, and we`re trying to confirm that with you as the family spokesperson.

BROMLEY: Right. I don`t know that to be factual. That would be something you`d have to talk with the investigators about.

I thought the cousin was tweeting that the brother and mother has been polyed. 

KittyMom

Considering the expansive ongoing searches and the involvement of so many volunteers ...  in the process of elimination ... I would hope Holly's brother, mother and father have submitted to a polygraph.  I also hope Holly's boyfriend has been polygraphed.

However ... John Walsh's words in the talk show circuit tend to indicate otherwise.

Janet ALL I can say is Nancy Grace sometimes gets info that is right in front of her face wrong, and quotes people wrong....and John W and AMW do not do the best follow up on cases either.  I admire John's work, but many times info on his site is old and in some cases never updated.

As far as articles from the Examiner..they are just people like us that follow cases and then write what they have gleaned from various sources...sort of like the Wikki of online news.  These aren't real reporters on the scene or anything close to it.

I agree.  However ... considering the silence from LE ... media reports are all we have to speculate on.

I hope with all my heart that ... in the process of elimination ... at the very least ... the immediate family of Holly and boyfriend have submitted to polygraphs.  If not ... the ongoing searches which have involved so many volunteers may have been in vain.

Police make 'significant' finds in hunt for missing student nurse Holly Bobo
April 25, 2011

Searchers looking for a missing Tennessee nursing student who was abducted from her home by a man wearing camouflage clothing have made a 'significant' find, it was revealed today.

Detectives leading the case said today they received a tip-off during a phone call but added they cannot reveal what has been recovered because it could jeopardise the investigation.

The latest discovery comes after police found a lunch box belonging to Holly in a creek eight miles from her home. Other pieces of evidence have been found in the woods near Holly's home but investigators have it could be weeks before it is analysed.

Search mum on item linked to missing Tenn. woman
April 25, 2011

PARSONS, Tenn. (AP) — Searchers have found an item they think belongs to a Tennessee woman missing for nearly two weeks, but investigators aren't saying what it is.

A Tennessee Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman said Monday it is unlikely the item found in the hunt for 20-year-old Holly Bobo will be described publicly unless investigators decide there is reason to do so.
 ::snipping2::
TBI spokeswoman Kristin Helm said investigators are "pretty sure" the item found in the ongoing search belongs to Bobo but it's not certain it will help.

Holly Bobo searchers make "significant" find in hunt for Tenn. student, says report
April 25, 2011

CBS/WREG/AP) PARSONS, Tenn. - Police say volunteers searching for 20-year-old nursing student Holly Bobo over the weekend found a "significant" item in the missing person's case, according to a report.
ABC News reports that officials would not disclose what the item was due to the ongoing investigation, but said that the discovery was based on a tip from a phone call.

According to CBS affiliate WREG, close to 800 volunteers reported to help on Friday during daylight, falling short of the 1,500 authorities asked for each day of the holiday weekend.
 ::snipping2::
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation did not confirm any new information on Friday and continued to say the DNA tests on blood found outside the Bobo home could not be released.

While police initially believed an abductor dragged Bobo, 20, away as she left for school last Wednesday, investigators now suspect it was a community member who led Bobo into the woods near her home.

Authorities have refused to rule out anyone in the community of Parsons, about 100 miles northeast of Memphis, as a potential suspect.

You know the most disturbing thing to think about....what if the abductor is actually playing the part of a searcher? 

Well, Kittymom you hit on exactly what a potential case scenario MIGHT occur in an given case when suspected that the perp is from a local area.   Whether they are right there to witness what is going on OR if they are getting help to cover up something they did is precisely good reason why things are being kept close to the chest by all LE agencies.

I totally concur.   If LE has not mentioned them, they are not directly involved as known family members or other adult witnesses, they are not speaking out on their own or are not already on the SO's list, there is NO reason to publicly discuss individuals providing their last names & other personal info for a few reasons to consider.
 
1)  LE may not want random full names being thrown out not to compromise their criminal investigation, especially with a suspect at large (reasons should be obvious).
2)  They have no involvement in the case, you have to put the shoe on the other foot sometimes & realize how you would feel having you or a loved one's full name  & personal information dragged thru the mud needlessly.   If you have no contact with an individual that can give you permission to discuss them, generally don't.

When following a criminal case, one has got to weigh all the known circumstances out carefully before posting information about others.

Rule of thumb, while sleuthing if you truly feel you have stumbled on something pertinent to a case, call it in to LE at the assigned tip phone number provided.   The victim & their family is not benefited whatsoever by making implications regarding unnamed persons of interest for public discussion.    Everyone has to keep in mind that in most instances it can only end up causing more confusion & precious time dispelling a rumor having to go down a road that ends up being a dead end based off of gossip or unsubstantiated suspicion.

 ::MonkeyCool::

 ::rhino::



I agree NG has gotten things wrong even when certain things were right in front of her face to be aware of, we learned from the Hailey Dunn case that Mark Klass used poor judgment in championing Billie Dunn which he had to backtrack from, John Walsh I respect highly BUT in this case he has not said anything that he hasnt said regarding EVERY case & that is advice to family to take polygraphs in the process of clearing them & that they should speak to the media to keep the case active in the public domain in order for the public that may known something pertinent to come forward if they realized they may have witnessed something.

As to what John Walsh said specifically about Clint, he's right he should take a poly along with the rest of the immediate family & her current boyfriend, standard operating procedure.     There is NO solid information that this hasnt been done already by the TBI or other LE agencies that are working this criminal investigation, just the public speculating if it has or has not taken place.   I personally was told one way or the other by three different individuals something regarding this very thing but until I hear it as an official announcement I cannot or would not say either way at this time.  I have to say that John Walsh may or may not know for certain firsthand even with his personal contact with LE if indeed this transpired or not to date either, that being said not to cast any dispersion upon him either.

I know many are asking well why not?  Again, crimes may be the same but circumstances while may be similar are at the same time different in each one, there has to be a good reason why certain facts are being held close to the vest in Holly's case, if I had any doubt that this was a case of "shoddy police work" I'd say so, but I adamantly do NOT in this case.  I had the privilege of meeting many people personally that feel the same exact way, even given the fact they are right there in the community with personal relationships with Holly and/or her family.  I can tell you the one common denominator I witnessed was that the majority in the community trusts that everything possible that can be done is being done in Holly's case.  Everyone is feeling a sense of lost patience & frustration, we all want answers but those trained to do what they do are doing just that & IMHO impeccably.

On Fox news Shep said that the item was found shortly before they were getting ready to call off the searches.  I am not sure if I misunderstood, or it was just meant that it was being called off for the day.  If searches were going to be called off for lack of any evidence, I am wondering if the perp has had some twinges of conscience and maybe called in something himself.  Maybe he is hoping she will be found without actually giving the location away directly, maybe just giving away the location of something of hers, hoping it leads them to her.

Hi Blink, so Jason Todd is Holly Bobos neighbor? Was it his mom who called 911? Or his sister? Was he one of Hollys ex's do you know?

In this community, neighbors can be acres apart given the large tracts of land owned by some families.

It was not anyone from his family that called 911 that I am aware of. 

There are two 911 calls.   One is a neighbor which is a good distance around the corner & to the right of the edge of the Bobo property to the street, the other is a family member.

I contend what happened to Holly was not intentional ... it was an impulsive action that could not be taken back.  This is why I believe that the perpetrator does not lack a conscience and ... therefore will ultimately confess to wrongdoing against the person of Holly Bobo.

I could be wrong.

 I believe she was dragged away. Blood on the lawn maybe Clint tried to help and got hurt?

As I know it there were flecks of blood found but described as being near the carport or in other descriptions the driveway.  Where are you getting blood on the lawn?  We dont know IF Clint reworded his description as to what happened upon reflection or whether media worded it that way & then it was corrected.  There is no indication whatsoever that Holly's abductor was inside the family home.

Seriously, it could have been as simple as someone walking and stumbling upon something they felt may be connected which resulted in the regrouping & sending search teams on foot to look further literally on their hands and knees.   I'm not sure I would take that leap that the perp called in a tip, its remotely possible but personally I doubt it highly.

Trust me in this case if the perp is even thinking about dropping hints that would lead to him eventually, he'd be much better off getting to a local police station & turning himself in, especially going on day 13 of this criminal investigation & with Holly still missing.   Unless he's in a cave or other very secluded concealed place he has to be aware that an entire county & then some are out in the area searching for Holly.   I agree with Blink that it is also possible that this person has a scanner.

Im watching local news WREG on TV live right now.   Search hindered by weather.   I'm watching Bryan who is with the rescue squad that I met Saturday at a checkpoint commenting on that they will take no chances with expected weather.  Nathasha Chen with WREG said that the item found is not being disclosed but it has given more hope to those searching.   At 5PM local time (central) they are going to show searchers with the task at hand.

At 5 I will bounce between all my local channels as I have every day.

Also, on Americas most wanted it says family member says they saw her being dragged away at 7:30.
May have been home invasion.
http://www.amw.com/fugitives/case.cfm?id=77784

I hate that the story changed. so I'm wondering if the kidnapper went inside and took Holly left Clint alone, didn't know Clint was there, or LE changed the story in the media for some reason? Or if Clint changed his story for some reason out of fear?
 I believe she was dragged away. Blood on the lawn maybe Clint tried to help and got hurt?

As I know it there were flecks of blood found but described as being near the carport or in other descriptions the driveway.  Where are you getting blood on the lawn?  We dont know IF Clint reworded his description as to what happened upon reflection or whether media worded it that way & then it was corrected.  There is no indication whatsoever that Holly's abductor was inside the family home.

I didn't say I believe it was a home invasion, I posted what it said on Americas most wanted. At the start of this it was reported it may have been a home invasion and Clint witnessed sister being dragged. I was pointing out that AMW states that from le statement...

Capp , do you know what really happened for sure that morning? I am wondering just like everyone what is the real story. as far as flecks on the lawn that was from a reporter on Nancy Grace.. maybe she was wrong.

 

I know what was said in the beginning, my point is there is no indication now that there was a home invasion.   I merely asked where you heard that, I believe the person misspoke on Nancy Grace about it being on the lawn.

I agree Capp I think she was incorrect. She even said it was confirmed. Was the blood on the carport or In the garage? I think from what have gathered from reading comments from people close (or say theirclose to the case) say it was a small amount of blood on the carport was that right??
And what about the car and camo clothing found, that was rumor too? What I gather about yesterdays finding is Hollys mom called LE.. le said tip from a call and I hear there rumors from that vol website say a cell phone was found. Do you know if its true or not?

Holly's cell was found at the Tri City Cement Plant due to a tip received by Karen Bobo via phone, that she in turn gave to LE.

They are apparently of the opinion that it contains the data for GPS/Ping, or address book, or many other misconceptions.

Too many scenarios to predict really. The only thing we can be sure of to date is that it is out of Holly's possession and someone with knowledge told her Mother where to find it.

To get rid of a record of the phone's text activity & personal info stored...no doubt LE has subpoenaed the phone service to get a record & have checked for its pings, judging by SOP in other cases.

When there is one witness ... the story should never change.  However ... it was initially reported that there had been a home invasion and Holly had been dragged to the woods and ... then the story was that Holly was led to the wood by who Clint perceived was Holly's boyfriend.

A HOME INVASION - DRAGGED INTO THE WOODS

Tenn. Woman May Have Been Abducted in Home Invasion
Published April 14, 2011


PARSONS, Tenn. -- A 20-year-old nursing student who was last seen being dragged from her house by a man dressed in camouflage might have been abducted in a home invasion Wednesday, authorities said.

Holly Bobo's 25-year-old brother told investigators that he saw the man dragging his sister across the carport at her family home in the community of Darden in Decatur County and toward a wooded area, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said. Its violent crime response team was gathering evidence.

LED INTO THE WOODS

Holly Bobo ‘In Fear of Her Life’
April 16, 2011

 
Holly Bobo, 20, was confronted Wednesday by a man in hunting camouflage who forced her to go with him into the woods, said John Mehr, spokesman for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

“What we believe, and I’ll tell you he actually had an arm holding her and so we feel that she knew that she was in fear of her life so she was complying with his commands,” he told a news conference.

Mehr said investigators “did not see drag marks.” He added she was “not forcefully dragged and she’s like any other victim, maybe complying with her attacker, but she walked into the woods” outside her Pasrons, Tenn. home.

Bobo’s 25-year-old brother Clint watched from inside the home, but did not believe she was being abducted until later. He saw the stranger from behind and believed it was his sister’s boyfriend.

Her brother, said Mehr, “had reasons to believe [the man] was not an attacker,” and did not call 911 until he saw blood outside.

We don't know the number that was called and Caller ID is blockable. The technology exists that one can really make a call from any "number" one wants.  Not saying that is the case here, just saying we should be careful to form conclusions.

Missing Holly Bobo Update: Cell Phone Found Roadside
By Robin Stanfill
Published Apr 25, 2011


The new evidence found during the search for Holly Bobo was her cell phone, found roadside on Hwy. 69.

Although law enforcement are not revealing any information concerning the "significant" item found during Sunday's search, a member of the search teams has revealed the item was believed to be Holly's cell phone.

Reportedly, the cell phone was located on side of the road on Hwy. 69 in Parsons, near Holly's father's place of employment, as well as Kolpack, a nearby factory, and the Tennessee Technology Center, where Holly was attending school.

Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt has related that law enforcement received a tip Sunday, April 24, 2011, which lead the investigation and search for Holly Bobo into Northern Decatur County. The Sheriff stated that a tip was received by phone, prompting a search of the area, during the late evening hours of Easter Sunday. In the course of the search, a new item was discovered, which law enforcement considered "significant", and apparently substantial enough for the Decatur County rescue squad and volunteer firefighters to be dispatched in order to perform a specialized foot search of the area. Law enforcement are not revealing any further information about the lead or the item found, at this time.

Hi Monkeys - long time no talkie!

A person I'm following on FB is an employee at Tri County Concrete.  I don't know if I'm allowed to post people's names here.  I don't want to cast aspersions on innocent people.   ::MonkeyNoNo::

His family owns it, and it is my understanding that a few of Holly's friends have worked there over Summers or part time or whatever.


 . . . combined with . . .



I agree Capp I think she was incorrect. She even said it was confirmed. Was the blood on the carport or In the garage? I think from what have gathered from reading comments from people close (or say theirclose to the case) say it was a small amount of blood on the carport was that right??

So . . . finding it at Tri County Concrete may be of significance? ie: comfort zone to perp, knows way around, etc. . . . ?

Interesting . . . and the owners of Tri County Concrete could perhaps have another family member who has a law office in Parsons? Or even perhaps another who is minister at the nearby Pentecostal church? . . .  If in fact they are inter-related in such a small town . . . would surely seem to make them a very powerful and/or influential group there, n'est ce pas? Could explain many things, really . . . (ie: shelter & the need for LE to tread carefully)

Of course, could simply be a someone who had a 'summer job' at Tri County, as well . . . or just completely random location while trying to escape. Just postulating . . . and hoping against hope darling Holly makes it through this.

Quite frankly, I deem this to be highly irresponsible on a searcher's part & it disturbs me a great deal that the information leaked in this manner.   

Capp-

If this was leaked by a searcher, I would completely agree with you.  However, it is not the origin.  We knew about it from a local Fox reporter who simply asked the question, and heard it on an open mike.



Blink, do you believe that the perp may have been the source that led them to the phone?

I'm of a few thoughts on this case. Just ignore me if you don't agree. I have noticed that there are some missing / disappeared cases that seem to involved kids around Holly's age. Sometimes these kids take off. Many seem to be students and usually are not doing well in school. Instead of saying - "hey mom and dad, I don't think I am cut out for this career" - they just take off. Don't think it can happen - ask Paresh Patel. Just took off. Wasn't found for a year. There was also a kid that disappear from school and ended up in Berkley California. His mother was relieved that he was found - but it was basically the same story. Couldn't handle school. This kind of thing does happen.

And people go to elaborate hoaxes to make it seem they have become "deceased" - such as the British canoeist - who had his wife as an accomplice. He was found in Panama of all places. Eventually it was all discovered and they both went to jail. The sad part was the two sons who was devastated that their father would conjure up such a ruse and a mother who took part.

I don't think that's what happened here - but just pointing out that sometimes people do some stranger stuff. And if I was gonna disappear myself - you can bet my cell phone - minus the sim card -  would go bye buh out the car window.

I guess I could debate all the merits of the brother's story - but that's all been done. I guess I could debate the merits of a mom selling t-shirt for a vacation when Holly returns, and I guess I could debate a family declining all media requests - but it is what it is.

I hope that whatever happened to Holly is known soon - and the police are able to make the unknown known. Too many cases seem to go ice cold due to their incompetence.

Janet - if someone KNEW the exact whereabouts of the cell phone - MINUS the sim card - that would be privileged info - known only to someone involved. You can't ping a cell phone without a sim card and pinging a cell phone only gives you a range of 1-5 miles.

Knowing it's exact whereabouts ( allegedly ) means that someone knows more than they are saying - at this point.

FYI:   Holly by all accounts is an excellent student & she was on the way the very morning of her abduction to take a test, she is attending nursing school & accomplished in many other areas, including singing.   Her mom was not directly selling t-shirts, it was said what she might think to do with funds being raised by the sale of T-shirts if Holly returns home safe.   I met one of the women that known the family that were selling t-shirts right at the fairgrounds.

Missing Holly Bobo Update: Cell Phone Found Roadside
By Robin Stanfill
Published Apr 25, 2011


The new evidence found during the search for Holly Bobo was her cell phone, found roadside on Hwy. 69.

Although law enforcement are not revealing any information concerning the "significant" item found during Sunday's search, a member of the search teams has revealed the item was believed to be Holly's cell phone.

Reportedly, the cell phone was located on side of the road on Hwy. 69 in Parsons, near Holly's father's place of employment, as well as Kolpack, a nearby factory, and the Tennessee Technology Center, where Holly was attending school.

Decatur County Sheriff Roy Wyatt has related that law enforcement received a tip Sunday, April 24, 2011, which lead the investigation and search for Holly Bobo into Northern Decatur County. The Sheriff stated that a tip was received by phone, prompting a search of the area, during the late evening hours of Easter Sunday. In the course of the search, a new item was discovered, which law enforcement considered "significant", and apparently substantial enough for the Decatur County rescue squad and volunteer firefighters to be dispatched in order to perform a specialized foot search of the area. Law enforcement are not revealing any further information about the lead or the item found, at this time.

What I am not talking about at the moment, are my thoughts and analysis on the circumstances surrounding the phone call "tip" from my sources.  Just wanted to clarify-

This is a very delicate process.  The co-existance of media as it relates to progressing investigations with LE is very pivotal to a case like this.  Leaks are sometimes strategic, and when they are handled correctly, can provide LE information they could not have access to in this stage of an investigation.

There are a few sides to consider.

sure anyone could have waked by and stumbled upon it. Phone are able to store numbers DIRECTLY to the phone and not just the sim card.

however, if the person opened it and saw the last dials - some MIGHT be "mom" or "dad" not Mrs. Bobo or Mr. Bobo. So placing the ownership of the phone - MINUS the sim card to a direct person - would be extremely difficult. Unless it said - 'Holly Bobo's phone' on the outside of it.

To pinpoint the phone - without a card and place that ownership so quickly to Holly Bobo - means that someone had advanced knowledge.

It was a significant find after-all - and one that the police did not want to disclose. Obviously - they wanted to check out everyone at the plant and see who may have seen anything and if anyone was connected and dropped or tossed the phone.

If I live in a rural area - and I am destroying evidence of a crime I just committed I don't toss a phone where it can be found. I, also, do not toss a lunch bag where it can be found.

If I am involved in an abduction - I am destroying ... D E S T R O Y I N G ... that evidence. Not tossing it willy nilly all over town where has all been found...

A planned abduction accounts for these issues. And unplanned abduction / crime of opportunity by an amateur is in a hurry to be accounted for and not in possession of said evidence.

Im fully aware of that Rob but I suggest that there was  a recent number on it for it to become aware to anyone that a call should be made to family as Blink stated the tip went to Karen Bobo.  It was also reported that several fellow students of Holly's worked in the summer at that location.   Now, that being said it also could be someone that has knowledge of the crime & knows the family for that call to have been made to Karen as well.   That being said, either could be correct & Im leaning towards it being someone that possibly knows who is responsible for this.

My guess - with the discovery of the phone and lunch box / purse thingie - is that Holly was abducted by a townie and not someone traveling miles and miles to make this random abduction as in the Kristy Cromwell case.

My guess is that this person is about Holly's age - 20-26 most likely. Knows all of the areas where the items were found, but probably doesn't work at the plant - but may know people who work there. Even an idiot wouldn't ditch evidence at his work site. But he knows the area very well due to the fact that he knew the woods.

Could have been that Holly slighted him or he was perceived to have been slighted. So look for the dog faced boy. Just kidding.

I think he is probably pretty worried with the disclosure of the phone... that the gig is about up and he is probably watching to see how close they are to nabbing him.

One more thing - it could be someone angry with Holly's brother - but doubtful.

nite all.

Capp-

the call was made to Karen prior to the phone's recovery, and was relative to it's location, and how it was found.

In my conversations today, I do not believe outside of what is already under subpoena, the phone itself will glean any identifying factors except to match it's serial number with what is known to be Holly's phone.

Which is not to say we know the motivation of the tipster-

I know what you meant by what you wouldnt discuss, respectfully you know I concur.   Im not finding any media reports reflecting what Kevin Bromley stated so how is it vetted publicly?  I am not asking if someone had a personal contact that is not being disclosed.  I was not around at all this morning but if he had stated it publicly other media sources would be bouncing off it as well.  None of my early evening local stations mentioned the family spokesperson, Kevin Bromley.  I just have to say considering he even took on criticism a few days ago for being tight lipped on an early morning talk show, I'd be surprised that he would be that disclosing now.   Yes, I agree and am fully aware that sometimes LE does things strategically.

Holly's parents said they wanted to thank those volunteers and officials face-to-face Sunday, and they tried. Dana and Karen Bobo made it as far as the search headquarters parking lot, but had to turn around. "Dana and Karen thought they could come and talk to the volunteers, to thank them and talk to them some," said Bromely. "But it's just too much, too hard." "I'm glad she didn't because I think it would have been too emotional for the volunteers too," said Adams. "And we already know they appreciate us."

If I came upon what I realize could be Holly's cell phone ... I would not have contacted Karen Bobo anonymously to inform her of the location.  I would have immediately contacted 911 and reported the find of possible evidence.

Think about it.  A finder that did not realize that SIM card was missing could have possibly been entitled to the reward if the info extracted from that cell would have have answered the question "What happened to Holly Bobo?"

Something is hinky.  IMO

Again ... I feel like I have entered the Twilight Zone.  Nothing makes sense.

If I had found what I perceived as possible evidence in the Holly Bobo case... I would have immediately called 911 ... identified my self ... informed the operator of my find and ... would have been at the side of the road pointing at the cell when LE arrived.  No quickly organized search would have been necessasry.

snipped from CNN news..

I hope with all my heart that ... in the process of elimination ... considering the changing stories ... at the very least ... the immediate family of Holly as well as her boyfriend have submitted to polygraphs.
 
If not ... there is something not right that Holly's brother who was the only witness and Holly's boyfriend who was originally implicated were both eliminated as persons of interest by an official spokesperson for the investigation within two days of Holly's "alleged" abduction.
 
If not ... the ongoing searches may all be in vain while putting at risk the well-being of so many volunteers who open their hearts and donated their time in the cause of Holly Bobo.

TBI SPOKESPERSON: WE ARE CONFIDENT

Holly Bobo Followed Kidnapper into Tennessee Woods in 'Fear of Her Life'
PARSONS, Tenn. April 15, 2011

The officer (John Mehr) said that neither Bobo's brother nor her boyfriend were suspects. "We are confident of that," he said.

But police have no leads to the identity of Bobo's abductor.

"There is not a person of interest at this time," he said.

Just a thought.  Could someone have contacted Karen Bobo for ransom money?  Turn in the phone as a good faith gesture and get the money they put up for her safe return ($80000 I believe)?  Just my thoughts on it.

Well, rarely Im extremely shocked but even on our bus ride to the search there was one woman who had the nerve to begin talking about the reward money.   She had to be insane because almost the entire bus stood up while it was moving & for a moment there I thought she was about to get jumped...I kid you not.   My head did like an exorcist worthy spin, luckily I didnt eat pea soup prior or it would have spewed with a few choice words.   Discretely I mentioned it at the command center & before we took off I noticed she was off to the side being spoken to.   Having said that as much as there is an enormity of people on this earth full of goodwill & pure heart there are those that have ulterior motives & black hearts, unfortunately it can't be ruled out.

Amen & it is unprecedented ....I can only hope as an advocate that it changes the course of way too many missing person cases that do not get half the consistent turnout.  Of course there are a few cases that given certain circumstances one can see why such an outpouring would not exist but not the majority of them.   The Volunteer State is teaching us all a valuable lesson in giving to those in need.

Janet - if someone KNEW the exact whereabouts of the cell phone - MINUS the sim card - that would be privileged info - known only to someone involved. You can't ping a cell phone without a sim card and pinging a cell phone only gives you a range of 1-5 miles.

Knowing it's exact whereabouts ( allegedly ) means that someone knows more than they are saying - at this point.

ANYONE could have found a cell phone that was walking around the location, yes possibly someone that knew the family as many do in that very tight knit community.   It does NOT necessarily indicate someone with knowledge of the crime itself.

If I came upon what I realize could be Holly's cell phone ... I would not have contacted Karen Bobo anonymously to inform her of the location.  I would have immediately contacted 911 and reported the find of possible evidence.

Think about it.  A finder that did not realize that SIM card was missing could have possibly been entitled to the reward if the info extracted from that cell would have have answered the question "What happened to Holly Bobo?"

Something is hinky.  IMO

Janet

I concur on this Janet, personally I would not touch it in any way, shape or form & would call LE to process it appropriately.  That doesnt necessarily mean that everyone would think to handle it in the same manner.   I have to agree with Blink that this does seem to be by someone that has some sort of knowledge, to what degree or regarding what I wouldnt venture to speculate but it does raise an eyebrow

Okay, what I would expect to see here is a statement that they are working alongside with & the consent of the TBI and other working LE agencies.   What is also absent is what the name of this "stealth tactical team" is named & where they are from.  I'll give the benefit of the doubt for a hot sec but on the onset the post itself concerns me a good bit.

Thanks for posting this Klaas

Go back there Klaas, I'm asking questions to a second post that this person made:

Tony Calabrese
As we all search to bring our Baby Girl home, we should all get to know this wonderful child that has united our great nation. Anybody on here that personally knows Holly Bobo, please join in and help us all get to know her. Who is Holly Bobo?

1. What is Holly's favorite food?

On Fox news Shep said that the item was found shortly before they were getting ready to call off the searches.  I am not sure if I misunderstood, or it was just meant that it was being called off for the day.  If searches were going to be called off for lack of any evidence, I am wondering if the perp has had some twinges of conscience and maybe called in something himself.  Maybe he is hoping she will be found without actually giving the location away directly, maybe just giving away the location of something of hers, hoping it leads them to her. 

akmom

I contend what happened to Holly was not intentional ... it was an impulsive action that could not be taken back.  This is why I believe that the perpetrator does not lack a conscience and ... therefore will ultimately confess to wrongdoing against the person of Holly Bobo.

I could be wrong.

Janet

I do have to wonder with all of the local cooperation, who but a perp would call something in that way?

Seriously, it could have been as simple as someone walking and stumbling upon something they felt may be connected which resulted in the regrouping & sending search teams on foot to look further literally on their hands and knees.   I'm not sure I would take that leap that the perp called in a tip, its remotely possible but personally I doubt it highly.

Trust me in this case if the perp is even thinking about dropping hints that would lead to him eventually, he'd be much better off getting to a local police station & turning himself in, especially going on day 13 of this criminal investigation & with Holly still missing.   Unless he's in a cave or other very secluded concealed place he has to be aware that an entire county & then some are out in the area searching for Holly.   I agree with Blink that it is also possible that this person has a scanner.

We recently had to have my m-i-l placed in a nursing home.  During our daily visits I kept hearing all this racket going on and wondered why the nurses station played the police scanner.  Seems it is the lady across the hall from my m-i-l.  She had the thing at home and brought it to the nursing home with her so she can keep up with what's going on.  She doesn't want to miss any excitement.   ::MonkeyHaHa::
