Sorry to ask this, but does someone have a link to the JVM video? I followed one of the links in the last thread to watch the interview right after it happened, but that link only showed Clint talking. I didn't get to see Dana, the pastor or any of the rest of the interview. Thanks!

I said the same thing and found out the interview was in 3 parts. Check out the videos below the one you viewed.

ChiliFries, do you remember if any of the bodies of water were drained or did they use dive teams only?

I remember it being divers. There was a flurry of activity at the time so it wasn't a focal point of news but I believe the reports were of divers going back over water on (and near also? I'm not sure about that) the Bobo property.

I haven't been able to find the Bobo's property records on the Henderson County section of the TN real estate assessment data site to find exactly how much property they own. If they just own the one big parcel shown on Hollye's map then their house is very close to the north edge of their property. I'm sure LE has contacted adjacent landowners and asked about who they've let hunt their property (or if they've found uninvited guys hunting their land), especially with the parcel to the north being so close to the house.

I sure would appreciate it if someone would link the videos.

I know and thats part of what i wad said earlier half the problem is JVM herself and not understanding something and cutting you off in mid sentance . And again im not saying he should be a POI but i just saw it as odd that they are describing the RSO to be 5 foot 5 and 135 pounds but the guy Clint say was closer to 6 foot too hundred pounds and then they go to a reporter saying its someone from town someone that knows holly and knows when she would leave for school and next thing u know u see this paster take over for dad and hes a rather large guy im gonna take a guess that he looked to be about 200 pounds around 6 foot ...Just sayin ..

Canman, do you have a link to that video. Goldengirl wants to see it and I can't seem to find it........ Weren't you the one who posted it?

Thanks so much!

Y'all are way better at this technical stuff than I am, so I haven't contributed to the mapping projects and I'm probably wrong here and don't want to step on anyone's toes, but ... aren't they in Decatur County?

Hi all!

This is my first post regarding Holly Bobo and I just wanted to do a quick re cap, as I have been pouring over various news for the last few days trying to piece together what is the most honest/exact set of minute details. (Of course this is my opinion only, based on what I have read.)

1. Clint states that Holly was never dragged. He said he saw her walking towards the woods, with a man holding her arm. Thought it was her boyfriend. LE also stated that it was a media/LE miscommunication that she was dragged.

2. Phone calls to family and LE were:
a. Neighbor hears screams, calls local school where Mother, Karen, works.
b. Neighbor calls 911
c. Mother calls brother, asked if he had seen Holly, and Clint said he saw her walking with her boyfriend. Mother exclaims "It wasn't her boyfriend!" Hangs up.
d. Mother hangs up with son and immediately calls 911.
e. Clint realizes something is wrong, goes out to the drive way, sees blood, calls 911 and runs to the woods where he last saw Holly walking with man approx. 6 ft. Finds nothing.
f. Sherriff (not TBI) said call came in at 7:59am but didnt say which call for help it was.

3. Father, Dana, said it was his opinion that the lunch sack and belongings found, may have been placed there to throw LE off the trail.

4. Dogs trace Holly's scent into the woods, but never found exit point.

5. Father, Dana alspo states he believes the perp must have known the family well enough to know when they left for work/school.


Questions:
Does anyone have an exact time for the the 911 calls?
When did the first police car arrived to the Bobo house?
What exact time did they start the offical search?
How large is the wooded area?
Are there any roads that go out of the wooded area to the street?
With everyone just standing around the Bobo's yard/driveway waiting to search, didnt anybody leave and start driving the roads nearby the woods?

The family said they feel terrible no road blocks,searches were set up during this time and feel like they could've missed a window of oppoortunity (what an awful 'what if' to have!). I guess in a crisis, people just wait for the police, but it surprises me that no one though to go to the roads that sat at the perimiter of the woods.

About the calls:

Clint said in his own words he contacted mom first to see who would be in the garage that morning.

Sorry Goldie I do not know how to put up the link but i can however tell you what i did to see the video. I went to you tube and typed in JVM interview with the Bobo family . and when you do that you will see that there is 3 parts to the video .Thats how i saw it hope that helps ya..

Bobo family on Open Line Aug9 (2 part video) http://www.newschannel5.com/category/107465/openline?nav=menu374_9_5&redirected=true

Bobo family on JLM Aug4 (transcript)http://archives.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1108/04/ijvm.01.html

A few more tid bits of info being given out by the family on this show. KB is upset and frustrated over the interrogation of CB. KB does not understand why LE was working the case family first and not from the outside in. CB says that he heard a voice in the garage and it sounded like a younger male and he only saw camo man from the back. DB says they themselves have gotten lost in the woods while searching for HB, so he believes the abductor had to know the area well.
KB was at school in the detached cafeteria and the secretary told her that a neighbor did not want to alarm her but thought she heard screams coming from the house. KB went into the school and called home. KB calls 911, leaves the school and calls 911 again, then CB calls 911 after.

So I am still left somewhat puzzled by the phone calls and timeline around them. Some snippets from CB in the JVM interview------------------------------------------------------
C. BOBO: ......... They just looked like they were casually walking towards the woods. And it wasn`t until later they realized that my sister went to the woods in fear for her life. That she must have been threatened with a weapon.

VELEZ-MITCHELL: But you called your mom in between when you saw them in the garage and when they walked out into the woods? Why did you do that?

C. BOBO: I spoke with mom -- I spoke with mom initially to find out who the people -- I heard two voices outside our house and I called mom to try to find out who these people were outside our house. But I had no idea who they were.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: Ok so as you watched, it was a man inside the garage with your sister and then what happens?

C. BOBO: And then I got in touch with my mom and found out that Holly was supposed to be in school that morning and realized that that must have been her at the house and then I looked back out and saw Holly and a male walking towards the woods and that`s the last time I saw her.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: So you`re saying you were able to call your mom before they left the garage and after you called your mom you see them walking towards the woods?

C. BOBO: Right. And I told my mom that once I realized it was Holly, I said well, Holly and Drew which is her boyfriend were out in the garage talking.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, is it safe to assume from this that the screams a neighbor heard came before CB called his mother, around or slightly before the time CB saw silhouettes in the garage and when he heard a strange voice of a younger male?
Another glaring question from all of this is if KB was told that screams were coming from around their house and KB had talked with CB before he saw HB and abductor walking away, then what happened next??

This page shows the JVM episodes that are available, but I don't see anything specifically about the Bobos. It may have been on the same date as one of these other subjects, but I don't have the time to look through them. Does anyone remember the date of the interview? The choices go up to August 4th.

I think it was Tuesday or Wednesday of last week? Which would be 4th or 5th? Someone posted a link to it here a few times...will see if I can find it.

JVM's FB page says it was Aug. 4th.

GOLDIEGIRL...Don't use any link you have youtube on your computer if not just google you tube and type it in..It dont even matter how u word it on you tube they will find it just use The Bobo's on Jane Valez Mitchell no links go to youtube ..

 

[CanManEh]

The transcript is no good you need to see how JVM don't understand things not that clint cant be understood its JVM that dont understand it.. and your transcript dont show how jvm cuts them off all the time mid sentance nor will it show right after they say the rso dont fit the 6foot 200 pound build and then a pastor that is around 6 foot 200 pounds takes the dads spot in the chair...transcript isn't gonna do any of that so its not gonna give u a good representation if what u can see if you just go to you tube and type in the Bobo's interview with JVM.

 

[Wonless]

Personally, I don't think he had the brains. Just plenty of time to do his deed and take off with Holly. 15 to 20 minutes or more. As far as leaving evidence behind, we don't know at this point. LE could have plenty that we're not aware of. At least, I'm hoping they do. There had to have been prints, fibers, hairs. The question is how well did they do to recover this evidence considering they had people trample all over the place including people on SUV's , horses, etc.

As for the drug labs, I agree that may be a reason some would not have wanted their places searched even if LE said they would not prosecute. Who would want to take that risk? KWIM?

The reward money is high enough for any of these druggies to take the money and run but that didn't happen so I don't think it's drug related. The perp is probably some sex offender and not necessarily from TN.

That's my theory for today. It could change tomorrow. :banghead:

1. IMO 15 to 20 minutes would not be enough time...

2. I agree

3. I agree

 

[Wonless]

Yes, I was more stating the 15 to 20 minutes or more at what would be considered the "crime scene" before the cops got there . The Bobo home. I agree that by the time they got all their ducks in a row or turkeys (sorry couldn't resist), the perp was long gone. I'm convinced he took her out of State.

I'm suggesting that CB wouldn't have enough time to hide HB and plant the Lunch Bag and the "other" evidence before police arrived. I can't imagine that he would be able to find time to do it after..but then considering that the evidence was found a day or several days later...

I don't understand what this means. What I posted was what came up when I typed it into YouTube.

Here is the only Youtube video of the family on JVM I've found. It's not the entire thing but I believe it's Clint's whole appearance:

[Rallihanna]

this case just wears on me... nothing has been right about it since day 1 and the more information that comes out (not from LE) the worse I feel...
