TN - Holly Bobo, 20, Darden, believed abducted 13 April 2011 - #13

[VicVixvi]

St. Rt. 69 Looking North. The Baugus Caves pull off is the wide spots to the left and right. The white buildings in the distance are at the intersection of Conrad Ridge Rd. and 69.

Conrad Ridge Road from St. Rt. 69. The 'alleged vehicle' was found about 3000' yards up Conrad Ridge.

If there was a vehicle and it was the one she was taken in, I would surmise that another one was in place to pick up where this one was left. If that is the case, there are more than one POI involved here. I am lead to believe that the POI walked to her home, but had a ATV in place in the woods, then got into a car, left that car and got into another or are they on foot now? Leaving a car is huge for LE, lots of clues, finger prints, evidence, not to mention, who does the car belong too? So I have hope they know who they are tracking. I guess they are not putting out a name or a BOLO for some reason.

little beige thing is a port a potty right?

I think so, and since LE is providing a 24-7 guard at the home, they would need that, right?

I use a different name and several of my family and friends also do or use nicknames. We all do this for several reasons and I'm glad we do. We also do not use our real birth dates.

These people are using their real name and have wide open, public facebooks. They just are not on Holly's friends list.

(snipped by me....)

MsF - do you mean people who DO have Facebook pages but are not listed as her friends, but are friends of her BF's or brother's? Or are you talking about people like yourself who just don't 'do' Facebook? 'Cause I know lots of folks who don't do Facebook, so I wouldn't consider that alone to be hinky.

And can you tell me more about what you mean about '..changed their profile pictures....' ? This is an interesting angle.

Within 24 hours of Holly's abduction about 25% of her (over 600) friend's list had changed their profile picture to her missing poster... or a picture of her... or some other "Holly" item. It was amazing.

Yes, they have (public) facebooks with their real names, pictures and are friends/family with her brother or boyfriend. Of course I wouldn't think it was odd if say her boyfriend's brother or best friend didn't have a facebook at all.

Holly has over 600 people on her friend's list. So she isn't keeping it down to really close friends. THAT is why I found it odd that some people closest to those closest to her, were not on there. If she had 25 people on her friends list, it wouldn't strike me as odd that those people were not included.

Am I making any sense yet?? :waitasec:

To clarify another point... it wouldn't be odd for Holly to not like her boyfriend's best friend or a family member. In-laws, many people don't like them. I cannot stand my husband's sister. I despise her.

BUT, if I had a facebook that I used, especially with over 600 friends on it... I would feel "obligated" to add her. Just like I feel obligated to get her an awesome personalized Christmas present every year.

Does that make sense? :waitasec:

Probably not... my thoughts only make sense to my own brain. Really though, in my head it is perfectly logical. The relevance, I don't know. It just stood out to me. :innocent:

Smith Gravel Pit Rd, Decaturville, TN 38311 to Parsons, TN - Google Maps

18 odd miles from this road to Parsons and very near the river

Lots of quarries and lots of caves all around there.
Good choice for a search IMO.

Couldn't copy both this and the original, but this was a response regarding the honeybucket.

I think so, and since LE is providing a 24-7 guard at the home, they would need that, right?

Thank you for pointing this out! It scared me at first, because I wondered if this was a sign that there were construction workers or contractors in the area, which would mean lots of men around Holly's house. Now I agree with you - most likely a result of the investigation and probably wasn't there before.

 

[SNOWINMEMPHIS]

What your saying would not like this perp to the one some 40 miles away then... or does it?
Your profiling does give us hope!

I tend to think that Heather (from Centreville around 40 miles away) was probably not an intended victim of this perp.
I do believe that there is another as yet unnamed by LE intended victim closer to Holly's home and only a little bit before Holly was taken.
This is no statement of fact and is JMO

THANKS for the explanation MsF. It does make more sense to me now.

But oh-oh...I fear you have revealed too much. How do you REALLY feel about your SIL? LOL...just KIDDING!!!

 

[amysmom]

Gosh, I'm quite shocked. Makes me wanna drive up there and search but it's 7 hrs away from me.

It could be many are out of the area visiting family for the holiday? I know Easter isn't the same travel type day like T-Day or X-Mas but still.

I don't use FB, so tell me if I'm wrong, but couldn't she have two FB pages - the one you mention, as well as a private one for real friends and family?

Rock Crusher Loop Rd. from Hwy. 69. Rock Crusher Loop Rd was identified in the youtube guys' video as an area they searched on the 17th (I think).

 

[MILofForensicSpecTBI]

Thank you for the warm welcome! The TBI has committed a lot of resources and people to this case. I'm amazed at their dedication and very proud of my DIL for the work she and her co-workers do. The media doesn't know everything that the investigation has uncovered. The TBI has a reason for keeping much of the information out of the media...I trust implicitly in their judgement.

 

[SNOWINMEMPHIS]

Nap time for me also....maybe Holly will be found if I quit obsessing...
Keep the coffee going!

 

[lillys]

This is a great picture for perspective on how visible the house is from the street.

Zoomed in for those who want to clarify... can't see the garage or the door.

Snipped respectfully

I'd say that's country living.
Thanks so much for the picture. It helps me a lot.

Oh really? I didn't know that. Threats to the family maybe?

 

[VicVixvi]

Sulpher Spring Road looking West from Bible Hill Rd. Sulpher Spring dead ends into to Swan Johnson Road (the road HB lived on) two roads North of the Bobo home.

Correction: Swan Johnson Road dead ends into Sulpher Spring Road, not the other way around.

sbm

I have a FB account but don't use it so would it strike you as odd if her b/f had a ton of pix of himself 'hunting' & about 10 from his 'graduation' last June with family & friends but not a one of Holly (or him & Holly) other then his main avatar? Btw! This makes me wonder where all the pix of them together came from that we've seen in the media.

I'm pretty sure they were dating too prior to his 'graduation' cos I found a comment (he has very few) by Holly under a pix that was from a few months before.

One more thing..On his wall it has "in a relationship with Holly Bobo" many xs as you scroll down the page & refresh all the way to the start of his FB account..A poster here said that meant he had to have removed it & then added it again=breaking up & getting back together..Does this add up to you? Or anyone else that knows way more then me about how FB works. TIA!

eta..I'm NOT implying anything suspicious re: b/f & Holly's disappearance so I hope this post can stay.

 

[CocoChanel]

Oh really? I didn't know that. Threats to the family maybe?

Not sure why they are there, but Will Nunley reported it in his tweets. It makes me recall that Kyron's dad and stepmom had 24/7 police presence with them too initially. Perhaps it's SOP in cases like this? In case of a ransom demand or something else??
