Holly Bobo found deceased, discussion thread *Arrests* #7

[StillMindmatters]

I feel relieved.

BRING. IT. ON.

BBM--Me too, the hearing was a very big step IMO, and I'm so glad this is finally moving forward.

I must say, that with these additional charges and the decision to seek the DP, I find myself wondering if there is far more evidence in this case then many have thought. In light of all the rumors and speculation that has surrounded this case, it wouldn't have surprised me to see more setbacks, delays, etc but instead we have more charges filed, the state seeking the DP, the DT has been given a date to receive evidence ,and a date has been set for the next hearing.

Perhaps these developments are related to physical/forensic evidence testing. After all , the original charges were filed before Holly's remains were discovered, which opens up the possibility that evidence found related to her remains or her burial place have come back with conclusive findings for the state's case. Or perhaps DGC :loveyou: is on to something and they really do have the "infamous" video tape people claim exists. Either way, I am looking forward to seeing what evidence there is once the trial starts.

It's hard to know how much there is to process in 4 TB of data, because one picture, video, or audio recording eats up way more bytes than a page of text does.

If it was text only, however, it's an absurdity that they could possibly have that much actual evidence accumulated, and even more impossible for the defense to go through it all. Ever.

As a point of reference -

"The 2010 edition (the last print-edition that Encyclopedia Britannica will ever publish) consists of 32 volumes and weighs 129 pounds. (Source) At 50 million words or about 300 million characters, it requires roughly 1 gigabyte to store the text electronically."

The average reader reads about 200 words per minute. If one began reading for 8 solid hours per day, with no breaks, no time for note taking, no stopping to discuss anything discovered or explore further, and no days off, it would take about 1 1/2 years to simply read the entire 32-vol EB.

If the 4TB of evidence was all text, there would be 4000 times as much - or the equivalent of 4000 different sets of 32-vol EBs - in that 4TB of info and data given.

Thank you SteveS for that excellent comparison. "It stretches the imagination"

Thanks a bunch Steleheart.

So which one of these three is going to roll over on the other two in order to save his own useless life ? Any guesses ?

This case would be much stronger with good solid evidence AND a tattle-tale.

Poor Holly. AND the Bobo family having to listen to the horrific details of what they did to their daughter/sister. :tears::tears:

 

[dog.gone.cute]

:seeya: Morning, Y'all !

From the Jackson Sun:

Don Franks, the Bobo family's pastor, declined comment on the death penalty on behalf of the Bobo family.

"Today was another giant step on the road to justice for Holly," Franks said. "They're very determined people, and today is another one of those giant steps on the road of justice."

:seeya: Hi Dogface !

IIRC, at the first arraignment which was over a year ago, it was stated that there was over 10,000 pages of evidence ...

Now IMO, IF these 10,000 pages would have been turned over to the defense last year, then yes, they would have had ample time this past year to go through that portion of the discovery.

But today, we heard that there is "4 Terabytes" of evidence, and I have no idea how many pages these 4 TBs translate into ...

Maybe one of our Tech people can help out here ... TIA !

No doubt, these attorneys have a lot of reading to do ...

And I'm available to help ... I'll start with 1 Terabyte ... :hilarious: !

I posted yesterday that 1 Terabyte can hold 2 MILLION photos, as far as data, that would in fact be interesting to know.

2 million photos ... wow !

As I said before, I am available to help ... and will take 1 Terabyte of data to start reviewing ... :hilarious: !

:seeya: And Thanks, Mistree, for this info !

Hi folks. I haven't been here for a couple of months, and I'm trying to get caught up. I watched the arraignments of the three suspects on youtube yesterday and one of the prosecutors said that 4 terabytes of info is equivalent to 1/4 of the entire library of congress.

What's bothering me though is that the new indictments all state that the murder was particularly heinous - involving torture and abuse beyond what was necessary to cause death (gulp). Sorry for being blunt here, but that peeks my curiosity about what could have been any sort of motive. I know the subject has been beaten to death, but just random selection of a pretty girl by a group of methed-out nut cases? We've all heard of that sort of thing before, but it is uncommon.

 

[Mercurydime]

I'm also wondering what the state could possibly have that leads them to the conclusion that abuse beyond what was necessary to cause death occurred.

If I may, I would guess whatever was found in that bucket.............

Respectfully snipped for focus...

BBM--DGC, what leads you to believe this? Is it the additional charges as well as seeking the DP for ALL three now?

:seeya: Here is my :twocents: about that "mysterious video" :


The first time we heard about this "video" in the MSM was at the 4-29-14 Press Conference when a reporter asked the TBI Director / District Attorney about this "video" that he heard about in court that morning.

Link to Video : [video=youtube;Xb2fhCTDykg]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xb2fhCTDykg[/video]

Start at about 8:45 to hear what reporter asks TBI Director Gwynn and District Attorney McAdams:


Also, Thanks to Foxfire for his astute observation from this Presser:

See Foxfire's Post #269 on Thread #3:

Notice after the press update when TBI Director Mark Gwyn, was asked if there was a video of HB getting raped and shot. He did not respond but asked General McAddams to take the question, who said, "NO"! Actions speak much louder than words, imo...

Watch the facial expressions on their faces when this question was asked..

In May 2014, Mark Pearcy and Jeff Pearcy were charged with being an "accessory after the fact" and "tampering with evidence" because of this "mysterious video" ...

From WSMV:

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

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

Then, on July 29, 2014, Sandra King testified in court that she saw this video:

A witness claimed in court Tuesday to have seen a video featuring nursing student Holly Bobo after she disappeared in 2011. The claim was made during the preliminary hearing for one of two half-brothers arrested in connection with the case.

King claimed she saw a video, about 30 and 45 seconds in length, featuring a woman crying with her hands tied-up. King said the woman looked like Holly Bobo. She indicated Pearcy’s half-brother Mark shot the alleged video.

“He [Jeff] told me Mark [Pearcy] had video showing Zach Adams having sex with Bobo,” said King.

When asked by the state attorney what she saw, she responded, “I seen [sic] a woman tied up. She was crying… she was blonde. Yes, it looked like Holly Bobo. I did not want to see more.”

In October 2014, the District Attorney decided not to pursue these charges against Jeff Pearcy at this time:

The District Attorney has decided not to pursue tampering with evidence and accessory after the fact charges against Jeff Pearcy in the Holly Bobo case at this time, according to Pearcy's attorney.

In October 2014, the District Attorney decided not to pursue these charges against Mark Pearcy at this time:

Tampering with evidence charges filed against [Dylan Adams] and Mark Pearcy in the Holly Bobo case have been dropped.

Officials with the District Attorney’s Office said tampering charges were dropped after the state decided not to pursue them at this time; however, the state reserves the right to refile any charges in the future.

JMO but I have always believed there was a video ... because where there's smoke, there's a fire !

JMO but I think that investigators were able to retrieve that video off of the phone, or a portion of it off of the phone, or someone rolled on someone else ...

All JMO and a big :moo:

 

[steelman]

Poor Holly. AND the Bobo family having to listen to the horrific details of what they did to their daughter/sister. :tears::tears:

Yes, and in my view, this would almost be the equivalent to Jodi Arias not only taking pictures while she was killing Travis, but videotaping the entire thing as well. Just imagine if the Alexanders would have had to endure that during the trial, his actual slaughter on tape.

If that turns out to be the case here, I just hope the Bobo's choose to stay out of the courtroom for a few days...........or a month. That would amount to cruel and unusual punishment alright...........for the family.

 

[Hatfield]

Catching up.

All JMO and just some comments on the latest news.

First, I have noticed that I get more creeped out by JA and not so much by ZA anymore. There is something about JA that wigs me out.

As far as the Terabytes of info. Isnt that just hard drive info so the only evidence on that can be words or pictures or images or documents.

Doesnt discovery include things like any physical evidence the PA would have?

If the PA has physical evidence then dont they have to turn it over too?

I guess I am just not too excited as others may be about this volume of hard drive data. Maybe I am missing something that makes it more valuable than I am thinking?

I have a bad feeling that most of the data the PA will give the defense will be tons of paperwork to confuse the defense and make them dig through a volume of stuff to try to find a few select documents that may contain something they really are going to use at trial. I have seen that trick in another case. The PA overwhelmed the defense with tons of stuff so that they could not find something important.

I thought the PA is supposed to only turn over stuff they are going to use in the trial and surely even the PA is not going to cover terabytes of info in the trial.

Well, JA has been in a max security prison for some number of years now. That's sure to make anyone a little creepier than they were before. Also, he is what 6'6? 6'7?

BBM I believe they are supposed to turn over all statements by the defendant, any physical evidence they may have, all lab reports, etc and anything in general that would be exculpatory in nature. Also, any evidence they may have that may help exonerate the defendant. Grounds for not turning everything over to the defense could be deemed grounds for a mistrial. So, to cover their bases, the prosecution will turn give defense counsel a copy of everything they have just to be sure. This is especially true in a capital (death penalty) case.

Thanks.

Since we only heard about hard drive type data, I am concerned that the PA is not turning over any physical evidence like the "Bucket" and contents like the Skull to allow the DT to do their own analysis of any physical evidence they may have.
