Holly Bobo Missing And Endangered: Are Suspects Naming Themselves- Odd Dodd?
Darden, TN–
On the eve of the 4 week anniversary of missing Darden, TN nursing student, Holly Bobo, new investigative details are being learned about the case. Two unofficial persons of interest have taken their case “public” in a way.
While blinkoncrime.com was aware of this information, a decision was made to withhold it in the interests of the cases “active” status previously.
That was, until today, when one of the known person’s of interests in Holly’s disappearance, outed himself publicly.
Jonathan Dodd, son of Bradley Grafton Dodd, and Dena Logan Dodd, chose the Parsons topix forum to “defend” himself against what he termed “death threats”.
Blink, Editor In Chief of www.blinkoncrime.com, was able to confirm the poster on the topix forum was indeed, Jon Dodd.
Speaking exclusively to www.blinkoncrime on the condition of anonymity, an extended family member of the Dodd family, sheds more light on Master Dodd’s claims.
“.. Yes, that is definitely him. I have no idea how he can say he does not know the Bobo family, he went to Scotts Hill with Holly for a short time. Karen Bobo, Holly’s Mom, worked for Grafton Dodd, his grandfather, when he was the principle of the Parson’s junior High when it was still there, Brad and Grafton are on the school board, there is no way that is true what is said.
Jon Dodd High School List From His myspace
When he is saying something was stolen from the property, he is talking about the ATV you wrote about before, when I saw that, I knew you were aware of him. Sandy called the sheriffs department before she knew that Holly was missing to report that their ATV was stolen. Sandy is also the cheer leading coach at Riverside High, since forever, and she got into some minor trouble a few years back because she got caught rigging the tryouts. Nothing major, but everyone knew about it. Dena, his Mom, was a teacher at Riverside shortly after he got transferred, which is weird again.
Everyone in this family has been covering for Jon since he was a kid. I could not believe when he stabbed Brad with a scissors when he was about 8 1/2, there was a big cover up. Last year Dena moved to Gwinnett County because the grands let him get away with anything. He has a baby with Shelby Sellers and nobody really even knew about that until after.
Jon went to the great-grandparents for a while in Arab, Ala in 2006 after the girl was killed in the car accident that got his ass beat up when he said she deserved it, and again, nobody said a word. Brad and Dena started up that Boy Scouts thing for him and (redacted by blink).
What is he talking about? What does donate DNA mean? O that is totally him, I can tell by the “I get paid to hunt” or whatever. Speaking of hunting, the abandoned cabin that volunteers found, when Grafton was told, was when he refused permission for any other searches and they got a warrant. Grafton and Sandy were seen removing a mattress from that part of the property, the one they found in the place where the outhouses were used recently. (redacted) saw him in WalMart, he looked at her and said he did not do it, I swear. Really scary.
He (Jon) did not donate DNA, it was taken from him in the parking lot of Tuckers Diner, he did not have a choice. The LE came there and showed some papers. Grafton’s was taken too, but I don’t know were, I heard it was at the area of the Pugh property, by that Shayne Austin’s parents house.
Another doozie…”
The X Factor
A former boyfriend of Holly Bobo’s, Blake Barnett, is also doing nothing to avoid being scrutinized. It is clear from his facebook postings that he is aware of his “celebrity”, and that folks following this case, are reading.
While it does not make him a bad guy, we have confirmed that he has had a background of alleged violence, in a former relationship with Holly Bobo.
He was the first name utttered by Holly Bobo’s parents, Dana and Karen, when they learned of her abduction.
That said, there is no known evidence linking Mr. Barnett to Holly’s disappearance.
Barnett is no stranger to violence, unfortunately, Blake, his brother and sister lost their parents Timothy and Janice in a brutal murder in 1993.
John Robinson, with actus reus assistance from his wife Kimberly, murdered both of the Barnett’s because they were after him for bounced checks.
Amelia, Blake’s little sister, was left in her crib for 48 hours before police found her while looking for the Barnett’s. She survived.
There have been no official suspects or persons of interest named in the disappearance of Holly Bobo in 4 weeks.
There has not been a LE update to her case since May 2.
The search effort for Holly Bobo continues.

I infer “interference in this investigation” prolonging it comes from supervisory level with LE or DA based on external political pressures at the Srate or County level?
Prayers for Holly’s family and friends. I’ve been following and had no idea today was the anniversary. So sad.
Inexperienced individual like Calabrese (and others claiming to act on BOC’s behalf) are throwing themselves into cases like Holly’s are possibly motivated by the rewards HENCE, making it a catch 22, so to speak. That, or it’s as close to LE as they ever hope to become.
Indeed, it’s most unfortunate that motives like these interfere with the integrity of the investigations.
Love be with you, Holly girl XO.

This broadcast just rips you to the core. I pray that LE gets the lead that they need to make an arrest soon.
Some cases are tough like this one. If people aren’t talking, what can the police do? Not that the police want the public’s help anyway considering they haven’t shared info. No sightings, no evidence in the recovered items, etc. I’m sure TBI has important evidence but obviously is not enough since there haven’t been any new developements in this case and we’re still here knowing pretty much anything new since last april. I really hope her case gets solved but I don’t think is going to happen anytime soon, there are cases that require years to be solved and some of them sadly never are. I feel she’s still alive which is weird but if it really was a local person there’s not much hope for Holly then, who could keep on hidding a local girl for such a long time? I don’t think her family has a clue either, this is so sad and it breaks my heart everytime I see her family’s pain, this case has touched me like no other and perhaps I am so hard on TBI because I want Holly to be found and soon.
one year:

Prayers that the Bobo family get the answer they are looking for.
Hey Blink
Just was serfing the web today and can across another young blond girl ubducted recent in North Carolina Kelli Bordeaux same attractive young long girl with a pink top on and black shorts. Sound like what Holly was wearing too . Do you think these cases could be linked? If so the sicko is heading our way in Delaware.
ment to say same young blond girl with a pink top on and black shorts
Hey B-
Sorry if this has been asked before. Couldn’t the Bobo family use the reward money to hire their own PI? Not sure who the benefactor is, but I’d think they’d support a decision to use the $ for that purpose.
Also, do you know if Tim what’s his last name was ever asked to come do a search?
No pep, the reward is supposed to be posted via a bond or escrow account. I have not been able to confirm that has been done.
well they just did a piece on AMW and it was very short. They didnt give much info at. Also no mention of reward
The segment was SO short last night. I’m worried because it is such a small town & I think there a likely less than a handful of ppl (in that town) who know what happened.
In worried that they didn’t ask for specific info & didn’t give enough of the story to help.
Hope I am wrong.
My opinion:
This guy either knows Holly personally or had been stalking her.
Either way- he is connected to family in that town & has someone close to him that a member or has direct access to local LE (hence bringing in TBI very quickly)
It is obvious that the perp was amongst searcher or had a family member searching.
I am assuming the perp left no DNA either.
–
If he led her into the woods-
•he either got onto a four wheeler
•continued walking to a vehicle
The vehicle had to have been waiting somewhere.
–how did the perp arrive there before he abducted her?
–how did he exit the woods–her cell phone ended up across town (either someone met him to take the phone -I doubt) or he got into a vehicle and left.
He either left her in those woods or left in a vheicle.
From the time she was taken-
How far could he have walked?
How far could he have driven a four wheeler?
Where could his vehicle has been parked & waiting?
Of course all of this should have been looked at THAT DAY
No help a year later.
If a local- who was missing from work that entire day?
*of course a family member could’ve made an alibis
My thoughts lean towards someone she kinda knew but not well. He knew her.
Man, I wish kera Sedgwick’s character was real!
Praying for bobo’s. Praying answers came in last night. Praying the someone who knows, grows a conscious & gives up the person theyre covering for.
Hi Dr. Pepper
I agree with your assement one hunderd percent. However I think whomever did this crime has been in operation for a while. I still think more then one person was involved in this crime. I still think they were locals from that area or around that area. Just my thoughts
Blink,
How does LE decide to withhold or release 911 calls? The LE investigating Holly’s disappearance has released very little information, in particular, the 911 calls. Would their be accusatory info on in these calls which is case sensitive?
You may have answered this type of question before, but what makes LE keep so much info “case sensitive” when a case like this goes unsolved for over a year with very little information released to the public?
In this case, I do believe there is a mention of a possible suspect in the opinion of a caller, so that would absolutely be withheld in an active investigation.
The bottom line here is if the wheel is not squeakin, it does not get oil.

Blink – is it your opinion that the only thing LE can do at this point is wait for someone to talk, or is the investigation and gathering of evidence still ongoing and fruitful?
Or recover Holly, yes.

Hi blink
I have noticed in some cases the families of the missing have persued civil suits against suspects. Could the bobo family go about this and force the hand of the le into nameing a suspect.
Depends on what they know as confirmed information.
