The thing is, going by what has been put out by the FBI, TBI, local LE and the family we know:
Holly was in school, doing well. No known issues or problems
Holly was active in her church and community. Well known. Seemingly well liked.
Holly was in a long time relationship with her BF. No known issues and one of the few quotes from non family members confirms this.
No evidence of any sort of family issues (abuse, etc). Everyone seemed happy. The family did things together as a group.
No known motive for Holly to just vanish. Also would she leave her car, clothes, money etc.? I doubt it.
Law Enforcement reacted to this as an abduction. I doubt that if this was a hoax they would have maintained that status for over a year.
Screams, blood, a suspect being spotted, various evidence being found (and a lot not disclosed) does not indicate a run away, etc. Nor does the initial description of the case as a home invasion.
Ergo - Holly was taken by someone local who wants her but knows she is or will not be interested in him, OR Holly was taken by someone who recently saw her and realized he had the opportunity to take her. Because the was in turkey camouflage gear, must be local or familiar with customs of area - knowing it was the 1st day of turkey hunting and seemingly using that to advantage...
