The whole 'attacking a jail guard' seemed so pat and contrived and I don't think anyone believed it. At the very least they should allow these boys to bail out with restrictions then, if and when, they can put a case together then they can bring them in. There is no where in the State, or the world for that matter, that they can run to-it just seems fair to me. My gut feeling is they are involved-however you can't throw habeas corpus around and use it when you please-it applies to everyone and every case in the same fashion.
In Tennessee there is no differentiation according to the law as to the 'beauty' of the victim. Yes, Holly is a beautiful young woman, however there are 10s of thousands of such females around the state and trying to make this case more important because of her appearance is what has ruined the prospect of solving this case.
We all know that if Holly was black the media could care less however the TBI should still investigate it with equal fervor-and I believe they would. What really hurt this case was a senseless, shameless media report by the local NBC affiliate that Holly's purse had been found-right smack dab in the middle of sweeps week for the local news media. Coincidence? See 'attacking a jail guard'
This is in no way a putdown of the TBI as 99% of the time they do a great service to Tennesseans and we as citizens are proud of them collectively.
It is just a crying shame how the media has become omnipotent in deciding how the law is applied, to who it is applied, for what reason it is applied, and finally who is guilty and who is not.
So, stop calling Holly 'beautiful' because in the great state of Tennessee, we as citizens, don't care in terms of the law and neither does the law as it is applied equally to all as our constitution deems.
Also, stop calling Tennessee a "Hub of human trafficking" as it is not and citizens have poured 10s of millions of dollars into breaking the cycle of abuse and exploitation and there are over 20,000 'safe stations' around the state that a child, or anyone, can enter and be protected by law enforcement.
Finally, I, and so many other, know that Holly never left the area that she disappeared from. That conclusion comes from the lay of the land and the fact that eastern red cedar groves with bedrock limestone exposed at the surface make disposing of a body a simple matter for anyone who is native or has spent a considerable amount of time here. Tracking dogs are ineffective over large sections of limestone and layers of cedar bark mitigate human scent. Ground penetrating radar and infrared aerial searchers are also ineffective. Both those boys know that-and certainly the TBI does as well.
She is within a mile to a mile and one half radius from the spot she was last seen-two miles on the outside. The only way to find her is to keep searching and not intimidate and try to beat a confession out of the two main suspects.

Last night is the first time I have been here in a week or two. Real life has kept me busy.. busy and, after this post, I must get busy again before the heat becomes unbearable outside.
