TN - Holly Bobo, 20, Darden, believed abducted 13 April 2011 - #12

[Carla Lashelle]

man people are missing the first real news in a week!

 

[annboleyn2011]

I don't mean to sound cold or unfeeling but I have a question. I realize every missing persons case/abduction is different. At what point do they move to recovery mode? Is it when they feel they have exhausted all searches? I am always unclear on this.

Cell phone pinged!

not that it says much there... but she texted b/f and phone pinged after abduction

I would think that would be quite a bombshell.
Would have been on her show, I would think.

Tomorrow's search will be by 5 Forks, just up the road from
where Holly lives.

How would they know Holly sent the text...

I assume LE examind his phone and would see the messages. Again, taking this at face value it sounds like they didnt break up the day before etc... It was morning, shes going off to school, messages b/f, heads out to the car...

Well Carla they could have been breaking up that dosent mean they wouldnt talk. Id like to know if he ans her text?

LOL i dont let anyone off the hook tooo easy LOL

I turned the show on and it was anthony stuff and I watched a second and switched back to Baseball.

LE needs to give some glimmer of hope, otherwise, people are going to start to lose hope and go back to their normal work/school routine.

To say her phone pinged a mile from her home after the abduction, is "something", but it does not help anyone grasp a sense of anything when LE said that they hope to have completely covered the immediate area by Sunday.

If they would just look in the crowd, I am sure he is there...

Hi, I'm new. I've read through most of the comments and was surprised no one mentioned that the perpetrator, especially if he knew the family, may have told her that he'd hurt her brother if she called out, or didn't walk away with him. That would be the most effective way to get me to walk off with someone. This is purely conjecture, of course, but it would be a highly effective way to subdue someone without having to even touch them.

I never suspected him really. And I am usually pretty suspicious. I just dont see this as being something a teenager could pull off for his first big crime. The suspect has to be an "adult" and is probably single.

How far away is Nashville? WSMV does not even have anything about Holly in any of the lead stories.

When my son went missing for a few hours, hundreds of people were out in just a few minutes cuz we put it on facebook immediately, after calling 911, and we live in a small community. At one point LE asked people to come to the command center and sign in. However before they had a chance to, our son was found (safe and sound, thank you Jesus). Point being, I'm sure lots of the searchers wouldn't have taken the time to stop searching (even if they had gotten the sheriff's message to do so) , make their way to the command center and sign in, they wouldn't have realized the importance. It was crazy when people were searching, they were tripping over each other looking for him, everyone kind of in a panic (me in hysterics!). IF it had been a crime scene (which it wasn't), evidence would have been trampled.

I don't mean to sound unappreciative to those who searched for my son. I wouldn't go back and change a thing that happened that morning (other than him not getting lost to begin with), but from my experience I can see what happens, even with the best of intentions, when searchers are not prepared/trained and organized.

Your story reminds me of one of mine.....one day the children of three families, including ours, were playing together, going back and forth between each others houses, which were for all practical purposes, next door to each other. Suddenly all the parents realized they're weren't at anyone's house and they weren't in sight.

The sheer terror of it was astounding for all of us. It was like we were all coming out of our skins. It instantly turned to be a combat like situation. I don't think I've ever felt anything like it before or sense.

We each felt we had something we had to do. On the phone, one running one way looking another running in a different direction in sheer terror.

We found all the cute little rascals a couple of blocks away. They'd been picking flowers for their parents and were singing their sweet songs and just happy as could be, laughing and smiling. We were so glad to find them.

May God, Our Heavenly Fatherm, as we near Easter, watch over all the children. Please bring Holly back to her family and to us.



The sheer sense of relief was a religious experience for us all. I don't think there was a dry eye among any of us.

At this point, I doubt nothing... A man who went missing was found in NH today--across the street from his abandoned car. Searchers "missed" his body. This seems to happen all too often, and I think that although large groups of searchers can be beneficial, they can also be harmful.

Sources say nursing co-ed Holly Bobo's cell phone pinged soon after her abduction within one mile of her home! Her boyfriend allegedly claims he got a text from her phone that same morning sounding fine

im not sure what to make of this...

THERE IS A CEMETARY OFF OF 5 FORKS ROAD maybe they should take a look there.

[cluciano63]

I am never comfortable with a story breaking first on NG...will wait for confirmation of the ping...

OH I totally agree with that!
