TN - Holly Bobo, 20, Darden, believed abducted 13 April 2011 - #28

[cluciano63]

Trying to understand your theory. So are you suggesting the perp knew CB wasn`t supposed to be home but then realized he was and used that so Holly would be compliant. If that`s the case then wouldn`t the perp be a heck of a lot quicker in taking Holly into the woods to his car instead of wasting time in the carport.

Especially since it was apparently a rather leisurely walk toward the woods, so that he did not notice anything strange about it...I am wondering if the guy ever realized Clint was even there at all...he doesn't seem to have made his presence known at all.

Another big mystery is the screaming heard by the neighbour`s son coming from the Bobo home. CB didn`t hear the scream but heard the dog barking inside the house and that`s what woke him.

So did the perp duct tape her mouth at some point in the carport. If so, whose voices did CB hear....

Not trying to be argumentative, but Clint never stated whether he heard screams or not. Karen Bobo stated "Clint did not hear screams."

I`m guessing CB told her he didn`t when she asked him after the neighbour called. Why would KB say he didn`t if he did. :waitasec:

My feelings are that the dog barked "after" it heard the scream. So, that would mean the scream was from the garage since that is where Clint saw two people when he first woke up and Clint should have heard it if it were loud enough for the neighbor to.

Here's the thing--Clint and the families account of ALL that happened that morning has been revised as a cover for what really took place. They think that it will keep the person/persons from causing harm to Holly if they keep the spotlight off of this person/persons. Perhaps even at his instruction in order to keep Holly safe.
I know, very conspiratorial, but as I said I was "out on a limb" and it is JUST a theory

I understand and hope you didn`t take it the wrong way when I questioned your theory. Interestingly most theories lead back to the beginning and that`s where it all falls apart. IMO,the events from that fateful morning make no sense and if they don`t make sense, there is something more that we are not privy to whether it`s done intentionally or not. My guess, it`s being done intentionally to protect someone.

Alway's agree with you n/t--something ain"t right?

It is 7:30 am give or take. It's light outside. Do I have this right? There is no door on the garage? Which way does the garage face? Wouldn't it be light enough in the garage to recognize his own sister??

From my understanding the garage is enclosed. its now more of an interior space. Cars do not park in it. Photos of the house show the garage (at the top left of the driveway) has the doors walled over and windows. Clint said he saw silhouettes in the garage. Since it was light out in the morning at that time,. I assume there was not a light on in the garage area. The cars park out behind the house, behind the garage, in a covered car port. I believe there is some sort of door to the car port from the back of the garage.

Did I read correctly,

CB
saw the silhouttes in the garage and did not know who either one was.
then talked to his mom,
then saw Holly and someone walking into the woods

He saw Holly after talking to his mom? After his mom told him Holly was suppose to be in school?

Right. (Well, apparently!)

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.

He has 2 versions in the same segment.

1) 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.


2)VELEZ-MITCHELL: When you saw them kneeling down did you think to ask them or approach them? How far away were you?

C. BOBO: No, I assumed -- I was inside the house and I assumed that that was Holly and her boyfriend Drew and he was dressed in full camouflage so I thought that Drew had been to the woods and killed a turkey and brought it back to the house and the two were sitting there over the turkey talking. After I saw the blood, I thought that was blood of a turkey that Drew had killed.


IMO, he slipped up in the second version when he mentions he believed the blood was from the turkey when he previously said he called his mom and she confirmed Holly was supposed to be in school and apparently she had spoken to Drew that morning and it wasn't him with Holly.

 

[cluciano63]

I am confused...do you folks think Drew did this?

 

[Advocate1]

I do have ties to this community and I will tell you this is the MOST popular theory if not the only one it seems.

[cluciano63]

If everyone seems to know or think they know what happened to Holly (being kept or whatever) why are the Bobos wanting help from the president?
And why would Clint drop out of school to spend his days traveling from town to town hanging posters, etc...?

 

[Advocate1]

I don't think Drew was involved at all. I do find it all very odd that they not just publically cleared Clint and Drew and then recanted but that they refuse to publically clear Drew. I know that neither were named POI's but Clint did implicate Drew and he claims to not seen the guys face so how do we know it wasn't Drew? Its a really unusual case IMO. Never seen anything quite like it. I don't know exactly what to make of it. It seems like all the locals side with Clint but some have suspicions. I am wondering myself that say the case is that Clint was threatened that the suspect would kill Holly if he tried to intervene. Wouldn't that be like a hostage situation? I can understand most of this theory as I have heard it many times now but I don't understand why this guy has not been arrested if Clint saw his face. Its been over 4 months. I do get that if they felt she was in immediate danger and the media presence possibly could make things worse they would play down the story in an attempt to handle it without drawing attention to the "real" situation. In all honesty looking at everything that has happened and been said by LE and the family I do think something of this nature is involved. LE and the family have just acted way odd and I have been shocked at how conflicting and cryptic LE has been in this case. It did appear to me that the family seemed unusually nervous and almost fearful. Very hesitant but at the same time I get the feeling Karen is very angry and is literally biting her tongue. Way weird. I hear that the locals totally avoid talking about "what happened" to Holly. She is only mentioned in a "praying" way. I feel like I relate to what everyone says but when what the facts say don't agree with what I feel when I hear the family speak or read these cryptic LE statements.
Thanks for letting me vent.

I am confused...do you folks think Drew did this?

 

[Advocate1]

I would love to hear some responses to this. Why would the family not talk for 3 months then LE stops talking all together and the family starts a media blitz???? Karen also kept pointing out that TBI weren't sharing info with them and how its a TN law. Does this mean she looked into this law? Interesting comment I think. I remember being completely shocked in regards to the president comment. Not that I wouldn't be singing the same tune if my baby was missing but more like the fact that in my opinion the LE and volunteer response is unheard of when you have a eyewitness that said she wasn't in distress when walking into the woods. I swear I read that they had hundreds of LE officers from all differe t agencies within LE. Is this weird to anyone else?

Thanks, Carla, for trying to clear this up. I am still confused. So, Clint saw 2 people kneeling in the interior space which they call a garage and he thought they were looking at a dead turkey? Or were they in the carport by the cars?

Where did you read that there were hundreds of LE officers hunting for Holly? Do you have a link? Hundreds of volunteers were hunting.

A girl is missing, no one has heard from her, they don't know if she is dead or alive. Why wouldn't hundreds show up to search? Hundreds showed up to search for Katelyn Markham this week and for Brittany Drexel, Susan Powell, and many others.

The family is frustrated and afraid. They want their daughter back. When LE doesn't tell them anything and no one has come forward with information their only option is to get it in the news and keep it there. Keep Holly's name out there and put the pressure on LE to keep investigating. Don't let the case go cold. I would beg on a street corner for infomation if it were my child.

No, it isn't weird to me. Its love for their daughter and a great community that is willing to help however they can. God Bless them all!

Has Nancy Grace questioned CB? If not, she needs to. JVM was much too wishy-washy with CB. That boy needs to be asked some direct questions until he can provide a sensible answer.

JMO, but the screams the neighbors heard could have occurred if CB was attacking HB.

If CB killed HB what did he do with her body? He had very little time to hide her body and be there when LE arrived. I don't believe CB did anything to Holly.

Maybe the problem isn't his answers but the interviewer not allowing him to answer totally. NG interrupts everyone. I can't see any answers coming from an interview with her. moo

Perfect example: Check out her interview on the Katelyn Markham WS site.
