Im still kinda fuzzy about what happened within the house that morning...
Clint hears strange voices outside
Clint sees silhouettes of unknown people
Clint now thinks the unknown people are Holly and Drew
Clint calls his mom to ask what Holly is doing in the garage
Karen says Holly is supposed to be at school
Clint seems to have forgotten about people in the garage for a bit, and at some point looks out a window and sees Holly walking away. At some point Clint goes outside and possibly goes to look for Holly at the tree line because he now realizes it was not Drew.
Thanks goes to Carla Lashelle, BeanE and the Youtube user poizyn1 for the videos of the Bobo Family.
The direct quotes from Clint help me further understand the situation. I read back several pages and, while finding a significant amount of discussion about turkeys, didn't find too much about recapping the statements (with exception of Carla Lashelle's quote above) and comparing them to some of the thoughts and theories previously brought up. I apologize if this has been brought up prior to me writing this.
Prior to the family's statements, I thought the garage discussed was the garage in the rear of the house, it turns out to be attached to the house. This changes the line-of-sight, and changes where the pair walked into the woods.
Also another important statement was that Clint saw 2 people in the garage. Clint also saw them kneel down.
Clint then called his mother to find out about the "two voices" he heard outside. He didn't know who "they were" and also found out that Holly should be in school.
After the phone call, Clint looked outside and saw that her sister was walking with a man into the woods from the garage.
Clint then investigates and finds blood. He first thinks this is turkey blood.
At roughly minute 8 on 005.AVI, D. Bobo states that the blood in the garage has been found to be Holly's Blood.
So putting it all together... According to Clint's statement, he awoke to the barking of the family dog. He heard a significant conversation between two individuals.
He could not ID that one of those voices was that of his sister. One can safely assume that if he could hear conversations, he would also be able to hear a scream. He did not state that he heard a scream.
He called his mom (As I think I would have done if two strangers were around the house. Were they repair men, yard workers, was their something going on that my parents forgot to tell me about?)
Clint's mother told him that Holly should have been at school, and one can assume that she said she had no idea who the people were outside.
Clint looks out into the garage and sees the two people kneeling down. Shortly before this time, unknown to Clint, there was an altercation in the garage which led to Holly being brought down to the ground or at the least her knees.
She was injured in a fashion that would create blood splatter on the garage floor but the TBI has previously stated that the amount of blood found was not conducive to a fatal injury.
She was guided away from the garage, Clint is able to make out that it is in fact his sister with a man in full camo gear.
This leaves a few significant questions in my mind.
1) Could there be a second perp?
I know I can make out my brother's, father's, mother's, niece's, aunt's and any number of other relative's voices if they were outside my house. Clint could have overheard a second person talking from another area and assumed both people were in the garage.
2) What happened that alerted the dog to the situation?
I think there is a good chance that Holly did in fact make enough noise, and possibly a scream, to alert the dog. Whatever alerted the dog was not loud enough to wake Clint.
3) Why aren't the 911 tapes being released?
The tapes could clear up any issues related to the statements, even if they release a limited transcript.
4) If the perp had a weapon capable of making Holly "fear for her life" and follow them into the woods, why would she need to be struck and blood drawn?
Striking someone during a conversation sounds like a personal attack, almost as if Holly knew the attacker. After she made the perp angry, she was hit, and a weapon was then presented. Holly then may have followed the instructions she was told.
Just a review and a few questions along with my opinion
