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 know that the Clothing worn in photos is a fad in this area, but

    The camouflage cloth is military ..but also “Survivalist Mentality”

    Any such groups known and operating in the area ?

  2. scots2 says:

    And the TBI fiddles while Holly slowly dies. This is just like 2008 here in Georgia the GBI was collecting evidence and let Meradith Emerson die when they could have called the local sheriff’s office instade of sending their own people there 3 hours late after Hilton made his call. Then the very next day Hilton killed Miss Emerson, so much for trying to rescue anyone. A friend of mind went to help look for Holly in late April or earley May, I believe he’s the one who found that key I keep hearing about, anyway when he called the tropper over to show him the key it took some talking to get him to bag it. The reason was that they already knew who took Holly and a hotal was not in the picture. The TBI only cares about collecting evidence, and if the scumbag who took her slips up before he killes her and they are able to save her in the process that’s a feather in their cap. I sure hope I’m wrong and this prick has kept her alive because he can’t belive he won’t get caught, but then prisons are full of innocent people arn’t they. God bless the Bobos, but right now they look to be dammed.

    No disrespect intended but there is no room for blaming a death on anyone but the murderer in an abduction scenario.

    Sorry to sound so pissed off but people who do this don’t need to be breathing the same air as other people. And this taking of woman happens all the time I believe I counted 10 young woman counting Karen J. Swift, my God what is wrong up there in Tenn.. Youve got the great people in Darden and thats almost countered by the devil who’s taken these poor woman, damm. I know its unlikely but I sure hope Holly’s still with us, for her folks sake and her brother, I don’t know how he’ll live with himself if shes not.

  4. scots2 says:

    Maybe but they could have possibly stopped it if they picked up the phone and called the sheriffs dept. because he took his sweet time after he left the restaurant to get gas across the street and then the store from there. Just thinking out loud. The Supreme Court says that LE is only obligated to solve crimes , not stop them. Although all the cops I know would like nothing better then to stop the criminal if they could or were aloud to.

    Just a thought on the perp but is it possible that maybe the perp wore cameo over his work cloths. Just my two cents

    scots2-

    I cannot make sense of your last post- am I missing something?

    Thanks

    I’m sorry it’s taken so long to get back to you but here is one web address its a long page but there are two samples of how this works and the second one is from the Caylee Anthony case.http://cruci34.angelfire.com/NASA.html
    I’m looking for the other one now. But please look it over and don’t dismiss it off hand this is way too important to ignore, let me know what you think, please

    scots2- this is an example of a wish. Not trying to be disrespectful, but I still do not understand.
    B

  9. scots2 says:

    Of course its a example wishful thinking, but so is hoping Holly comes home alive. But since nobody has seen her body nor has anyone confess to murdering her any thing is possible. Just because statisties say its been to long and some she is dead some where, doesn’t make it true. The above web site claims that its possible that she could be found by using NASA technology by going back and watching the Bobos back yard and watching that creep when he walks thru their yard and into the carport and then out again, it might show someone who this person is and if someone knows the roads back there behind the Bobos home certainly you can fugure it out from there what can be done with this “not so new technology”. I think that the Bobos should know about it, maybe they can put a fire undersome politican ass and get it done. This guy who has proposed this seems to be on the leval and honest and he has had a mircle happen to him in some fashion and has chosen this way to help people out and he is trying his damnist to help. He’s on Facebook too under 2findthemissing.com and if you have not checked out this web sit you really need to everybody does too its long but worth it and he does have Holly Bobo listed, the address is http://cruci34.angelfire.com/NASA.html
    I’m guessing you don’t enjoy see families suffer like this eather. I’m sure this is a good portion of what you do “for a living”? No disrespect intended but I’m sure your respected enough to help move a mountain or two, yes?

    scots2, I know you mean well, if that were in question, I would be at my patience threshold.

    Without furthering a debate about something that should have it’s own blog, let me say this with respect, and very plainly.

    That gentleman is a sandwich short of a picnic.

    It is irresponsible, uneducated prior Hollywood storyline fodder, period.

    We do not and will not have the ability to shoot global hi res real time imagery and if we did, I can assure you it would be utilized for matters of global security. If he is so sure it is possible, I invite him to seek a patent.

    Again, I would love for such technology, but at the risk of sounding glib, there are freaking are zones where unmanned drones cannot even “glide”.

  10. scots2 says:

    Fine, dully noted. But can you get a patent on something that the goverment already owns? I’m not trying to piss you off, so moving on, have you heard of anything new. This is fustrating not being there and able to help these poor prople, Almost seven months and nothing?

    To be frank, this case will progress exponentially if the Bobo’s ditch everyone around them that is not immediate family, and not utter a syllable about the case to any of those folks, hire a REPUTABLE PI, preferably retired FBI to provide an initial assessment on Holly’s case and go from there.

    They need help and they need to ask for it yesterday.
    B

    Stupid question….but….has this been suggested to the Bobo’s? I would take this advice up in an NY minute if it were my daughter (I am NOT passing judgement on this precious family….they’ve been through enough). I know how small towns/communities can be. You know everyone’s business. Word travels fast. If this is a town anything like where my paw paw came from, you’d be cutting off people you grew up with, played hockey with, went to school with, hung out with, attended church and celebrated Canada day with….. y’all get what I’m saying). If they’re hesitant, I get it. Who do they trust, now?

    Do we know if they read here?

    Scots2, I think the only way you could go back and check out footage of the Bobo’s backyard would be if they had had a webcam out there up and running at the time of the abduction. They apparently did not, so it can’t be done.

    Footage of this sort is shot at likely scenes of crime, like convenience stores and ATMs, not usually in private citizen’s backyards. Of course, people sometimes do set this kind of thing up on their own property, but nothing indicates that the Bobo’s had anything like that.

  13. Cindy says:

    No. 13, LaurieO – I agree. I’m surprised that something like this isn’t mass-marketed and sold to the public. I know you can get this kind of equipment, but it is a huge cost. My daughter needed it during her divorce case as her ex- and others of their clan, vandalized her property and police said it was probably “just kids” out having fun.
    All we could afford to help her with was the best outdoor lighting available and guess what, it all stopped along with a couple of police reports and a good divorce attorney.

  14. scots2 says:

    Like I said how would you get a patent on something the government already owns. How do you think they know witch car the terrorist are in when our drones hit them? Any way this is what got me interasted in this in the first place, if I may:Your Daughter is finishing breakfast, she picks up her back pack and says “Bye Mom and Dad, I Love You” -
    You both respond “You too, Hun, have a good day, You have your GPS transmitter and cell phone in your back pack, Right ?”
    and she says “Yes Daddy and THEY ARE on” –
    she walks out the door at 7:09 a.m. for the 13 minute walk to school, 6 blocks away
    - Not many other children live on the route she takes, so she walks alone

    As she walks along a silver car pulls up
    (( later in interviews )) it was found the driver rolled down the window
    and held a piece of paper out and said
    “Have you seen this dog ? ”
    You daughter jumped at the chance to help someone and Walks over to the car,
    The man pointed a gun at HER and told her to Get In the car, your daughter was confused, and said “Your Kidding Right ?”
    The man repeated his demand – “Get IN THE F**KING Car Now or I’ll shoot you”

    Your daughter complies and gets in the car and the driver drives off

    At 8:11 the school calls and informs you that your daughter is NOT in school…
    You panic and know that something has happened because YOUR daughter would NEVER CUT class
    You call your husband and he is confused too. What Should WE do you ask
    Your Husband says “Don’t waste time – call the police and
    and tell them the situation, they will know what to do”
    and he adds “while your doing that I will go to the computer and see where
    her GPS Tracker shows she is at”

    You call the police, their records show the call came in at 8:13 a.m. ( real time )

    The police ask a few quick questions like “What time did she leave the house ? – What route did she usually take ? -
    Did she have a GPS tracker/transmitter ?
    “Does she have a cell phone ? and he tells you NOT to call the number ?
    and adds “if someone has her and hears it ring
    he will take it from her
    and take away the chance she could use it to contact you”
    What was she wearing ?”
    He passes that info to another officer who broadcasts the info over the police radio

    The officer on the phone asks if you can monitor the GPS tracker on your computer
    and you tell him “YES” and that your husband is doing that from his work computer now
    The policeman tells you to tell him to stay by the computer continue tracking your daughters GPS,
    and you give the police his office phone number to help keep them Updated

    An officer Logs into the “National Satellite Surveillance System”
    and gets immediate access – the actual time log in is 8:14:36 a.m.
    The police have an Officer trained to operate the National Satellite Surveillance System on DUTY

    At 8:14:55 ( real time ) He types in your home address and your a real time picture of your Area pops up on the screen,
    he then types the date and time
    Today 7:15 a.m. ( National Satellite Surveillance System Time ) ( a few minutes before the time you told them your daughter left your house
    and the program zooms in on pictures of your house

    and then the operator of the system starts to go forward in the picture cache and
    he sees a your daughter leaving your yard at 7:16:30 a.m. ( Satellite Surveillance System Time )
    The pictures are taken at 4 second intervals
    He slowly forwards the pictures keeping your daughter in frame
    at 7:20 in the timeline of the photos he sees her being approached by a silver car,
    which stops and your daughter is seen approaching the CAR.

    In the next frame she is gone and the car is moving… the time stamp on the System say 7:20:25 a.m. – in real time it is now 8:17:03 a.m.
    in 4 seconds a car going 30 mph can travel about 178 Feet
    The officer knows that whomever took the girl will NOT BE speeding, so as not to DRAW attention to himself
    The officer tracks the car as it moves along by forwarding the pictures,
    at one point he zooms in ( the system has the capability to make out objects as small as three inches )
    THE OFFICER CAN CLEARLY SEE a Chevrolet Emblem and asks other officers watching him work if
    they know what MODEL it is, some one say “ITS A 2009 Camaro” and with that another officer is doing a computer check
    for a 2009 Silver Chevy Camaro registered WITH THE COUNTY — Only one comes Up -
    —- another officer checks THE name of the owner against the National Sex Offender Registry
    and they get a hit

    AT 8:20:50 a.m. ( real time ) A police car is sent to the suspects known address
    but it will be a few Minutes before it gets there

    At 7:23:51 ( system photo time line )
    the system monitor sees the car stop behind a store on Main Street
    the driver gets out of the car at 7:23:59 and walks over to a dumpster
    and returns to the car, 13 seconds later at 7:24:29 the car pulls away
    an officer calls your husband and asks what the GPS tracker shows
    he tells him it stopped moving in the block bordered by Cape Parkway, Lafayette Street, Leonard Street and Viskaya Blvd

    They dispatch a cruiser to the location of where the car stopped

    Photo is taken from GeoEye.com and is NOT a photo of the actual crime scene

    The operator officer zooms out a bit to keep the car in the Picture
    and sees the car is heading out of town
    He contacts the County Sheriff and supplies him with the Info,
    he moves ahead in the pictures cache as fast as he can
    making sure he keeps the suspects car in the picture frame
    until he is a Few seconds from real time and

    It is Now 8:25:27 a.m.

    He sees the car pulled off the main road and drive up an old road which leads to a deserted house.

    He dispathes a helicopter to the scene

    He Sees the car stop and the man drag his captor into the house.

    He broadcast this info while viewing it and directed the Sheriff
    and other units to the area and another officer dispatched an ambulance,
    the deputies arrive at the house

    Then the Sheriff is heard over the radio “Suspect in custody – Victim is Alive AND APPEARS UNHARMED”

    The officer looks at the clock and it is 8:30:04 a.m.

    The length of time from when you made the call to the police
    to the radio message from the Sheriff that she was found was 17 Minutes
    Why did the GPS stop moving ?

    During his interrogation the offender tells police he has a signal detector/scanner
    AND he stopped behind the store to check your daughter for a GPS or cell phone.
    He says he found THEM Both using metal and signal detectors and threw THEM into the dumpster.
    He also said he was prepared to cut them out if there had been implanted chips of any kind
    The suspect said he had bought the scanners and metal detectors at Radio Shack
    Police found the cell phone and GPS tracker in the dumpster

    That explains why the GPS tracker stopped moving
    and is merely a secondary tool to be used
    and not be solely relied on to help find the missing

    ********

    The offender was supposed to be wearing an ankle transmitter
    BUT somehow it was not being monitored and No one saw he was not
    Eventually it also turned out, he had violated his probation numerous times and fell through the cracks
    IF the monitoring system had been used effectively
    he would NOT have been on the street to commit this crime

    A normal BASIC 6 to 8 man search ( WITHOUT any extra help such as helicopters, boats, divers etc )
    costs a minimum of $1200.00 to $1500.00 PER HOUR

    As more sophisticated equipment is added the cost FOR ANY BASIC SEARCH rises quickly
    A one day search could cost $36,000.00

    Had not the system in this fictional scenario been used, the perp and victim may not have been found at all,
    or the search could have lasted for weeks, months, or even years and maybe never resolved
    As in the Caylee Anthony, Lacey and Stacey Peterson, Susan Powell,
    and Jeniffer Kesse cases and so many other ongoing cases
    have EACH cost the taxpayers millions.

    I repeat: Over 9.6 Billion Dollars is spent EACH YEAR on JUST basic searches for the over 800,000
    who are reported missing
    Implementing this system would save a major portion of that money
    PLUS reduce the amount of money spent on other crime investigations and on the court cases

    *********

    May be it is still a dream but its a good one.

    scots2- the technology does not exist currently, period.

    I do feel compelled to address one issue in your fictional scenario however, under no set of circumstances should any child walk to school alone, I promote the buddy system or a carpool alternative, always. GPS is not a criminal deterrent by any means. Moving on.

  15. michvhf says:

    Blink, I beg to differ. The technology does indeed exist, however it is for military use only. In 2000 or 2001 I saw a series of pictures from one such satellite. It started showing showing the visible part of the planet, the next showed the USA, the next showed the midwest, then the Chicago area, then a neighborhood, then a yard with someone in it, then a woman on her stomach sunbathing in her yard. That last one was from her shoulders to the top of her head. That technology was 10 years ago, I guarantee it’s better now. The odds of a local or even state PD getting access to it in a timely manner are probably slim to none – and slim left town.

    That is not the debate, we know that specific targeted applications for real time are possible, this is in reference to a REAL TIME, SIMULTANEOUS, global, hi resolution technology with a playback feature.

    Be clear folks, it does not exist, which is not to say it never will, but right now as we are still debating someone’s wish, I am telling you it does not. It is the equivalent of laying solar panels all over the place without connecting them to any mechanism to generate power. If burning your grass was the goal, than goody.

    I have a BOC editor who has experience in this area, and by the fact that I am not being more specific should tell you I know what I am talking about. To even discuss those credentials is grounds for revocation, but if this technology existed, he would be on the frontline of it using it to detect IED’s.

    Now, can we please move on to topic?

    B

  16. scots2 says:

    OK that was the last and I would love to move on to the topic on hand, has anything new come up. I thought that I heard that who ever toke her also drove through town right after, how would they know that?

  17. first-time says:

    Where are you Holly? God bless your family and all who love you.

    For those that have some idea on who or what is responsible for this girl’s disappearance: GIVE IT UP!

  18. scots2 says:

    I have been thinking that the TBI is taking its own sweet time and have giving up trying to find Holly alive or they are neglecting there sworn duty to find her alive. Why else are they not saying any thing there just collecting info to use in court when it comes to that point. When did they figure out that she was no longer alive, or is it just a guess on there part

  19. scots2 says:

    I guess I just didn’t want to believe she was but why else have the TBI shut-up and told the sheriff and his duputies to also keep quite. I am so tired of these monsters just grabing these woman and having there way with them then murdering them. Who would blame Holly’s dad or brother if they put those guys in there sights and pulled the trigger, who would. Not me, I guess because its what I would do or want to do. Who would have thought that someone who had to be watching for a good long time to feel safe enought to crab her from her garage and take her away. I was hoping that who ever did this was totally infatuated with her that he would keep he alive or at least not want to spend the rest of his life in jail or get the death penilty, but criminals never think they will be caught, do they? If she has been murdered then my faith in God will be gone,how many prayers and fasts or church services will get his attention? I know that its the devil who does but I have always been told that God is more powerful, I’m I wrong? No he just doesn’t care is what I’m thinking. I hope nothing like this ever happings to me because I would take my chances with the Sheriff and to the GBI or who ever shows up that thay need to move on, don’t need them. I think that the sheriff is an elected official and he will do what needs to be done and let the lawyers fight it out. I am so pissed and fustrated right now I could scream at somebody and the TBI is handy right now, the jerks and thats not the worst thing I can think of calling them.

  20. Cindy says:

    Blink,
    What are we missing in this case? Motive or Holly or both?
    I, like others, have tried to piece this together and there are just too many missing pieces to do so. Why do you think the TBI is so quiet?
    Are they protecting someone or waiting for someone to make the wrong move? I still think it’s local and someone close to the family, but why is it so hard to connect the dots?

  21. scots2 says:

    I think that they have connected the dots and just waiting for someone to make the wrong move. Plus they are acting like Holly is already gone and that is why they are not releasing any more information of course the hell with the family and there wants and needs and lives after all they didn’t take her some else did and they think that gets them off the hook, they just make people think that a rescue is what they want and if it happens great but they are treating it like a recovery only and trying to make a case against whoever did this to Holly, God bless her, he just hasn’t so far. I don’t think they know how to rescue anybody, IMO. Just make a case against somebody and their good at that I have seen them in action in the Christian-Newsom murders in Knoxville last year. But there cold shoulder to the Bobos whose only daughter is still out there they should be ashamed of them selfs. Especially sence they know who did it according to a State Trooper. Welcome to the world of law enforcement. And they sometimes can be a joke, of course they don’t think so. I’m sorry to be so negative, I just mad as hell because of heir total dis.. thats enought signing off.

  22. jeff says:

    Cindy

    The public has to hope the tbi is doing all they can to bring the people responsible for holly’s abduction to justice. I haven’t liked their methods from the start of this case. However if their methods solve this case then I guess the silence was needed. Their not going to come out and say what evidence they have, thats just plain stupid. In other words I hope they know what their doing. Just my two cents.

    Cindy and All,

    In some towns, you can rent the equipment I was referring to. When you need to get creative, you can. I recently bought a baby monitor even though my youngest is 7. I put it in the window on the side of the house so I could here him if I am in the front of the house. He’d be outside playing with the neighbors and it would get quiet. Not good. So the monitor helped me keep track of where he was and what he was doing, as well as what interesting words the neighbor children were using. It sure isn’t a substitute for direct supervision, but it is very helpful.

    So sorry, Cindy. Divorce can be so hard when one of the parties is rotten.

  24. Cindy says:

    #24 LaurieO, Thank you for your support and great idea with the baby monitor. Now, if only our thoughts and prayers could bring Holly home.

  25. scots2 says:

    Has anyone been around the LE camp lately to find out anything, as to whats going on? I guess they are hoping hunters will find something when they go out.

  26. scots2 says:

    I just talked to a FBI agent and what he told me was if the FBI is involved that they do have someone who does act as a go between in cases like this. And hopes everything turns out alright, but he did not sound convincing to me.

  27. Kchea says:

    Blink, can you give us any information as to what is going on in regards to the holly case today in Decatur county. Several sources including Will Nunley have reported heavy police activity today and that it has something to do with holly….any thoughts would be appreciated

    I have only heard that it is not related to Holly, but I was vigilant until that update.
    B

  28. scots2 says:

    The TBI from what I hear have never solved a missing persons case, ever. There just spinning their wheels and everyone elses and wasting precious time.Aholes. They need to breake a few rules and get themselves in gear. Worry about prosecuting this case after they bring Holly home unless she’s been feed to the hogs, this is just discusting.

    @ scots2 November 11,2011@10:13 pm I have read your postings and gleam much of your frustration from them. These abductions are horrible and frustrating, but please as Blink has reminded us often our avocacy is for the victim ,but often I find graphic possibilities hard to read and I then think of the family reading them also. I am grateful that you brought up the possibility of that method of disposal (esp.in rural areas) but please maybe say it a little softer as maybe has anyone considered this? Adding to that I live in a rural area where there are gentlemen strong enough to carry a 100# plus across shoulders and then place onto ATV and head to camp.I came across an area of remains from deere last year that numbered in the 50 to 100.Private property where they just dump rather than burn or bury,others will drop off at side of the road dumpsters. Those are hard visuals to live with. Do not wish to offend and I do love your passion which you bring to this site. MOO

    Thanks for the heads up I do get carried away sometimes. I just never heard of holding back information from the public like the’ve been doing, supposed there is a pervert out there just looking for someone else. Do they think sorry is going to cut it if someone gets hurt. How many times have we heard we’re very close to closing this case. That Blake Barnett is a piece of work, I was looking at one of the local blogs in may have been Topix and the poster put a link to his brothers Facebook page and it had a picture of 4 people Barnett’s brother, Holly, Barnett and someone named Cliff and it had a caption under the picture which the four of them were sitting at a long table and the caption said “guess who’s the whore”. He seems to have a low opinion of Holly or of just woman in general. It seems that violent people just don’t seem to like woman and because they tend to be smaller, creeps like this guy take out there frustrations out on them. It would not surprise me at all that he was the one who punch her to make her bleed that awful morning and that he’s the one she had that restraining order against. I know that the statistics are against her but I still hope she’s tuff enough and makes it through this. Thats if the TBI gets off their ass breaks some rules and stops promising and starts producing and for once breaks this abduction today seven months is way to long for any parent to have to suffer through this. Lord have mercy.

    With word flying around regarding increased LE activity in recent days,(since determined to be unrelated to Ms. Holly), it would have been a good time to have eyeballs on this/these POI/s to observe kneejerk moves. Small town news travels fast…possible panic by perp…you get the drift…?

    ———————————————————————-

    Scots2, I understand how you feel, but if they don’t follow the rules, an entire prosecution could be thrown out and the guilty party go free.

    I agree, that they seem clueless, but there is always more than meets the eye.

  33. scots2 says:

    You know that your probably right as far as that goes, but I think that they may have taken their eye off the ball here. What ever happened with those ATV tires are they or are they not evidence, and who was trying to sell them? What ever happened to that just one more clue and and they would be able to move on these guys? Humm. She’s probably on some meth heads farm, and prey God she’s still with us,wondering when the calvary is gonna arrive and this pussyfooting around is not good for her or her family’s health.IMHO. And if they did get off I would not give two cents for there lives, because dad and brother have to be pissed off. I’m not saying they would do anything but you can make them think you will and they will have to look over their shoulders for the rest of their sorry lives.
    I guess these guys need the fear of God brought to them, because I don’t think they fear man, but if you put them in a cell with a big guy named Sue you’ll hear them squeal all over west Tennessee and if they don’t talk then maybe they don’t know where she is,but all the bad things they did would be payed for I would think, at lease a little. Any way who cares about woman beaters and animal tourchers and killers. It’s a cold world out there and scum just make it colder. Sorry I just think she should be their top priority not putting these guys away right now.

  34. Safehaven says:

    One in Four walk around you and I each day with no conscious -no concern – only” me” in their minds. Their life consist of The Truth is but A Lie undiscovered. I can not remember where I heard that ,I do not wish to take the credit but I can not remember. There are people in that area who DO CARE and ARE WATCHING . It is obvious that those responsible will never care or feel remorse for what they did ,but one day just one thing will bring them down. And down they will come. I would think that confinement would be really scary ,nobody in prison,will stroke their baby ego’s ,no girl to make them feel ok ,no family to cover up or look the other way ,and guess what after a few weekends nobody visits,no camo, no camo, no camo!! They are already running ,soon to be caught. First one gets the deal I think ,I hope my bet is correct. Holly will not be forgotten!! Her family will always have our prayers and support. It’s a small town and everyone talks ,you’ve heard the saying “girls talk you learn things” well so does your “bud” MOO

  35. scots2 says:

    I sure hope your right about them and slippen up. but every time when I get the idea your saying Hollys gone my stomach just tightens up and and I have to shake my head because I have to believe its not true, because evert thing about this abduction is strange, a jilted boyfriend, law enforcement the TBI in particular, they need to hand it over to the FBI and swallow their pride for the sake of the citizens of this county and let them know whats goning on and quite their bull-shiting. Do they know whose ATV tires were being sold on Crigslist and do they belong to the perps. It’s late, good night.

  36. Tiffany says:

    If Holly’s dead, I hope someone finds her body, I mean seriously after watching Forensic Files and reading about other cases I understand why there are so many people missing, who knows what the perpetrators do with the bodies, I even read about a man who killed 2 women and put their bodies in a suitcase afterwards, another man who killed a girl and kept her in his fridge for like 9 moths, a couple who killed another couple and dismembered their bodies, I mean the more I think about it I believe that some families are lucky that the remains of their loved ones are found. This is beyond sad, so many horrible people living in this world, I just hope they regret for their actions and God can forgive them someday.

  37. scots2 says:

    I’m not speaking for God here he will do what he wants anyway, but I will say that people who do this shit should not be forgiven by God or anybody else they need to be thrown into the deepest pits of hell and burn for eternity. They don’t just kill the one they took, but the whole family. There’s the empty seat at the table for the holidays and everyday after. The missed laughter and smile of their loved one and I’m sure you can add more. No, they do not need to be forgiven. I seriously doubt they believe in God any way, and if she is dead I don’t know that’s unthinkable right know. There have been prayers, millions of them praying for her safe return and church services and fasts and what ever anybody does for God to hear them, how many prayers does it take for Him to respond, humm, how many? Evil runs around free with no concern for anybody but themselves and I don’t know how, butt it needs to stop, If your armed and you see something like this happening, shot them because they will just get out and do it again. They can not be cured and we don’t know if they want to be. So ending their reign of terror will be justice done. Sorry if that sounds cold, but I believe that there is pure evil out there and it needs to stop picking on our young woman and children and where ever it reigns it ugly head.

  38. Edward says:

    Thanks Scott
    Where is this man wanted for questioning .. Big Jim ? every lead needs to be followed.
    Holly was walked off by somebody and a sexual preditor is just that, A Preditor who would enjoy the hunt and capture.

  39. scots2 says:

    I apologize but that’s the first I have hard that name, who is he?

  40. scots2 says:

    I meant “heard” that name.

  41. Scott says:

    Blink – Bill Warner, a PI from FL has a theory that James Edmond Gunterman Jr has taken not only Holly, but Karen Swift, Lauren Spierer, Paige Johnson and Katelyn Markham. Gunterman fits the physical descrition given by Clint and is a known sex offender (charged with 19 counts of 1st degree sexual abuse) and has a warrant out for his arrest http://www.louisvilleky.gov/MetroPolice/Sex+Offender+Roundup/James+Gunterman.htm

    He has a warrant because he is in non-compliance, his victims are all pre-teen or teenage girls and he does not match the physical description at 250 lbs.

    Scott, this is not aimed at you you are just asking a question, but I hate when people are lazy and just run through RSO sites and design a non-working theory around it. One of these days someone is going to file charges of harassment if you can believe it and they will stick. I feel it is unfair to the victims and families if one is going write on the case that they do not at least have basic facts correct.

    Look at..
    Scott says:
    November 15, 2011 at 9:11 am
    click on the link and look at the web site that has that name.

    There are lots of preditors in this world and a PI has hooked onto one as a possible suspect and that apparently LE is looking for to ask questions of in various missing person cases..
    His nick name is Big Jim.

    A sexual preditor plans attacks … leaves no trace of the attack.
    Could even plant evidence to make LE look at others.
    It is all a game to a preditor.

  43. bill warner says:

    Who is this dumb ass “Scott”, get a clue super sleuth, when scared witness’s make an ID they oftern do not get the weight,Gunterman is 220 to 250lbs, the cops have not seen him for two years, weight varies on suspects in two years, especilly those on the run from Metro cops in Louisville, the Kentucly state police and the U.S. Marshalls Service.

    James e. Gunterman is a white male and he is 5’11″ tall, the suspect in the Holly Bobo kidnapping was listed as from 5″10 ” tall to 6″ 0” tall, Gunterman fits the profile.

    gunterman has attacked pre-teen white females in the past, it is not a stretch for him to graduate to young white petite females with long blonde hair, you dope.

    Lol, Mr. Warner, I believe you were looking to direct your righteous indignations toward me, your host and Editor In Chief. “Scott” was merely asking for a comment from me on your tin hat special.

    Under your theory, the first being a matching physical description, considering Clint’s description that started out as a silhouette, and advanced to a several hundred yards away guess, I am thinking that would include thousands that were not actually Clint himself, or anyone with a verified alibis. How did you shrink that down exactly then? You did what every LEO 101 does, look through the RSO database. ok, got it, you found an absconder.

    Nevermind he has no victim over 14 years of age, and he has a few, but I guess that training is not super useful when you just want to create a conspiracy for publications sake. As an example, Karen Swift is 30 years older- hello?

    Respectfully, and keep in mind that is a rule here, you have not connected a single MO issue that any investigator would so much as underline on a yellow pad. That is because there is no connection.

    You may not agree, but I find it irresponsible for you to make those sweeping hypotheseese, without any diligence to back it up. What’s next- your thoughts on blondes and the Fugue syndrome?

    You know there is every bit of evidence that refutes the notion any of these cases are linked.

    B

  44. LaurieO says:

    Bill Warner, why are you so angry? I don’t get it. So we don’t all see eye-to-eye on some things. Why are you mad about that?

    I don’t believe Holly’s case is connected to others, but I do wonder sometimes if the other cases are connected to each other-Lauren Spierer, Katelyn Markham, and Karen Swift. It’s a curiosity that they seem similar, but I am not offended if others don’t wonder about this.

    It just seems odd that you come on here and attack Blink and Scots2. Why? Don’t we all just want these women found?

  45. constance says:

    I don’t believe these cases are connected…Lauren was only “available” to be taken for a few short minutes at 4am…Karen Swift likewise, only “available” for a short time due to a presumably unforseen flat tire; Katelyn was allegedly safely in her home and either came out for some reason or let someone into her home and was taken or left with them for some reason, in my opinion; Holly was clearly taken from her yard, likely with someone she recognized or who had a good cover story (doubtful due to her blood). The same guy is not likely to have been lurking in all of these places at the exact moment these women found themselves in a situation where they could be taken, across three states…I think that if any of these cases are ever solved, we will see that the abductor in each case had some knowledge of the victim, or was a personal “friend” and or lover…just my opinion.

  46. Scott says:

    Wow! – sorry about that Blink. Me and my ‘dumb ass’ will refrain from posting inquires such as this in the future.

    Lol, not at all, it was a logical question, and I do believe I was the dumbass in the response, :)

  47. Alex says:

    Sorry to interrupt on other discussions everybody.

    Dear Blink,

    I’ve asked you previously to take a look at information on this blog: http://hollyboboabduction.blogspot.com/

    Now, it is stated that private search organizations have found who is responsible in Holly’s case; because in all of last 7 months, I haven’t found any source more logical and reliable than yours so could you please kindly shed a light on that blog? Is it telling truth or that’s just a liar like many untrusted sources?
    Thanks for your so much kindness.

  48. Cindy says:

    Wow, is someone out there trying to divert our attention away from the real perp(s) or are we just grasping at straws?

  49. Edward says:

    I do not think anyone is diverting attention.

    It more appears LE and all the rest are lost.

    Frustrating for all of them I am sure ..
