Holly Bobo, missing from TN 2014 discussion #1 ***ARREST***

[Foxfire]

Imo, it would be very helpful to know ZA's employment history. Imo, ZA has some very important connections in Decatur or an adjacent County...Just a hunch..

 

[tlcya]

many counties (usually the larger ones) already have their court docketing information publicly available online. Other counties are still trying to catch up. Because budgets differ from county to county.

Just a few short years ago it was unusual to be able to go to a county site and view case information. It is getting better. But it is still a work in progress and depends greatly county to county where they are in the process of getting online access set up.

With his background, I would think he would have been on top of LE's list of suspects in Holly's case. My guess is that he had one or more people alibiing for him.

Happy Spring Forward!
That is the metaphor for Miss Holly's case. Only forward-never back.

As I was reading back to catch up this morning after working yesterday, I see one of the questions I have been pondering was asked. Did any of these A-Team #*!**$%!&* participate/attend in any searches or vigils for HB?

Also, thinking about Heather Sullivan this beautiful Sunday. Losing her home to a suspicious fire. So I went on a hunt. And found this:

http://www.newschannel5.com/story/24599052/hickman-county-house-fire-deemed-suspicious-by-officials

Could this have been ZA work? For retaliation of some sort? These people were older, however there could be some form of a connection. This deadly fire happened 1/31/14.
I am going to keep Googling and see if there are more in that vicinity.

Yes...I want to know how a years-long felon was "running errands" on the Decatur County Payroll!

So are you suggesting this fire is connected to the girl he allegedly attempted to kidnap earlier?

Sure. In my family you are always GUILTY until proven innocent. No free pass.

With ZA's escalation level of violence and the privilege of roaming free -
anything suspicious in any county near his "epicenter" would ring my bells.

 

[shefner]

If you've ever been in a small town, even a rural one, you will realize that people can know "of" each other without "knowing" each other. If ZA's mom was a teacher with KB, then Holly probably knew of her...and knew her story. You can't tell me that ZA could shoot his mom point blank at 19 years old and the Bobo's never heard that story. Of course they did. They knew Grandfather Adams too....and probably read the obit when Grandmother Adams died last year. ZA's name was probably in the local paper regularly in the jail wrap up. Yes, in small towns (like the one I'm in) everyone reads the newspapers from cover to cover, especially that part where it lists out every arrest AND every accident AND every police incident report each week. If so-and-so had their lawn mower stolen, it will be in the paper. If Brother Bob rear-ended Granny Gert in the parking lot of Food Lion, its in the paper.
So there is no way that Holly and her family didn't know of the Adams. Likewise, the Adams knew the Bobos too.

I have lived in a rural county all of my life, and yes, most everyone knows everyone or knows someone that knows someone.:floorlaugh: There is no way to know everyone even in a small community but most have heard about someone if their name is mentioned. I would think the Adams name was synonymous with 'a family good people needed to say away from.'

I have no doubt that the Adams knew of the Bobos and the Bobos knew of the Adams' and they even spoke when they may have seen each other out and about. But I do not think they interacted with each other nor had the same circle of friends.

The Bobos and the Adams are as different as night and day, imo. The Bobos had two good kids and both were attending college to better themselves. Neither had a criminal record. They are a God fearing family attending church every week.

Meanwhile the Adams parents had two sons who have had run ins with the law and were meth users. Both locked up now.

They came from two totally different worlds that collided on that fateful day when ZA and his evil world pierced the Bobos world where goodness resided and turned it upside down forever.

The only conclusion that makes any sense to me why this was allowed to go on and on since 2002 is ZA was a snitch for LE. I hate that if true because even LE knew the violence was increasing in nature.

Usually if the offense is not egregious they wont even arrest the snitch. But why he always got sweetheart deals when he was an habitual offender is mind blowing and unexplainable to me. And snitches don't snitch because it is the right thing to do. They do so in order to save their own sorry **. But if he was a snitch then he would think he could get away with more criminal activity and the police would protect him and ask the DA/Judge to go easy on him.

I think he even manipulated the police and the Judges as well.

Before this case is over I would like to know why ZA seemed to be a Teflon Don and so many seem to turn their heads to his many wrongdoings.[/FONT][/B]

I can see what you're saying but hold off on judging the entire Adams family by two rotten boys. My husband is a minister and we are God-fearing people too...but our boys took us through hell before they could grow up and become men. And I'm not really sure they are men yet even though by age, they should be. They did everything, and then some more, of what we had instructed them their whole lives NOT to do. And we refused to salvage them from their troubles. Tough love is correctly named. When carried out properly, it will come close to killing both the parents and the kids. But it is necessary.

So after rearing 4 children, I can attest to the fact that good parents can produce rotten kids....and rotten parents can somehow produce good kids. And I don't think Holly and Clint were perfect. They were just regular "good" people...but they were still people. She dated and broke up with boys....Clint had issues too. Karen had her issues, as did her husband. So we can't idolize them just because they are victims.

I find the biggest error to be on the part of ZA's disciplinary figure (whoever that was) and the law enforcement/ court system. He seems to have been bailed out over and over....and the courts let him ride the wave. Not a good situation at all.

No mortal is perfect but from everything I have read Clint and Holly were exceptionally good kids. I believe that to be true... just as I believe Zach Adams was a rotten kid and probably even a troublemaker even when young.

I understand what you are saying though, but I thought I read that the mom of the Adams boys had had her own drug problems and their dad too. If that is true I don't classify them as being good parents.

I know from reading here for 10 years that very good parents can have very rotten kids.Some of those rotten kids have murdered their good parents and even wiped out their entire family.

I have known several great parents who have had horrible children or at least one of them would be even though they all were raised by the same parents under the same ground rules. So I definitely agree that good parents can have bad children.

But it seems to me that the Adams parents or at least the mom and grandfather were enablers instead of being the parent/grandparent they needed to be.

Even now Cindy Adams makes excuses for ZA and she knew without a doubt how dangerous he was. Not only to his own family but to the community as well. It was written in the complaint when she and his stepdad got the RSO against him after he had shot her point blank in the knee with a 9 mm. No way do I believe it was an 'accident' yet she tried to claim that it was. A good parent imo teaches children they must be held fully accountable for their own actions. Even the stepfather had to sleep with a meat cleaver under his pillow. I think he was the only one that did not make excuses for him.

So while I agree that good parents can have bad kids, I also believe that some parents can be the worst enablers ever, and cultivates those bad kids into what they become. Ones who covers for their kids when they know all too well they are very dangerous.

IMO

I also suspect that ZA has been roaming the county freely all these years because he has acted as a CI for law enforcement who then did a lot of overlooking of a lot of arrests in order to continue to make use of him in that regard. If true it pizzes me off mightily.

What is the link to his Facebook? I looked at once, but now I can't find it.

Thanks,

That's Z's facebook.
Who is CB though? I see a female CB in her recent friends, is that who? Or does CB refer to a Bobo?

I think some people have de-friended him. And rightfully so.

I noticed ZA's girlfriend at the time is FB friends with CB now.

I was referring to the CB mentioned here, in my post.

My guess is that Zach's old girlfriend is now FB friends with Clint Bobo. That's probably what was being said.

Thanks, I thought so too, but she is not.

Like I mentioned earlier, ZA's Friends list seems invisible. His followers list includes a CHARLIE BOBO not a Clint Bobo.
