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.

    One thing that really disturbs me is that Clint firmly believed the camo guy was Drew, even when he saw the blood and everything, even after his mom told him that the guy couldn’t be Drew, Clint still believed it was. I’m thinking the man is about the same size as Drew and they may look a like from the back but I’m wondering if Drew was stolen before Holly’s abduction, maybe some of his camo clothing or maybe one of his caps, who knows, he didn’t tell anyone perhaps, just especulation, maybe that’s why Clint thought it was Drew because of the clothing, or maybe the perp bought the exact same type of camouflage that Drew wears??? very strange.

  2. BeccaD says:

    Maybe Clint still thought it was Drew BECAUSE of the blood in the carport. If the guy had on camo then Clint may have assumed that “Drew” had been hunting and laid whatever game (turkey, etc.)he had killed in the carport while talking to Holly. After Clint spoke to his mom he then found the blood and did not associate it with harm having come to Holly. It may not have occurred to him she was in trouble at that point. The neighbor and the scream has always seemed a little off to me. I don’t know what I think of that. Holly may have just latched onto that backpack(or whatever it was) for dear life. Being smacked in the face would really shock you. I have a thought that maybe the lunchbag, etc wasn’t necessarily meant to mislead. Some narsisstic freak may have just put it there like “You can’t catch me. I’m too smart.” As for Holly going willingly – I’ve read that women often think they can talk the abductor into letting them go. Especially if Holly knew this person she may not have realized what type of danger she was in. Oh yeah, what happened to the atv tires someone had up for sale?

    Has anybody thought she walked into the woods with this guy because she trusted him to take her to school.
    After noon folks, I have not sleeped for the past two days and I i have been looking at other places. Blink on crime has a poster who noted that she walked into the woods like she know who she was with and planned to be alright. I have been thinking that that when Holly parked in her garage that she more than likely did not lock her car at night. The morning she was going out of her house to go to school when she tried to start her car it would not start, she got out of her car to check under the hood, that’s when who ever was there waiting for her stepped out and scared her and she hit her head on the hood of her car and started to bleed a little and the guy who startled her used a hanky to stop the bleeding. He told her his truck was parked on the road behind her house and he would take her to school and come back and work on her car. She looked at her watch and it was getting late so she trusted this guy enough to say yes and left with him thinking he was going to take her to school. When they got to his truck and something raise the hair on the back of her head and she started to turn back to her house and he grabbed her and she started to struggle with him and scratched the hell out of his face, …. and drove to his dumping ground and tossed her out and drove home to clean up the blood from his truck and cloths, with bleach and what ever else, parked that truck in his garage or other building and went back to get his other truck, a lite colored one, and drove around and waited awhile to go help look for Holly. Any opinions or tell me I’m wrong, Help!!

    SHE Was assaulted in the garage, her injury caused a puddle of blood on the floor.

    No, your scenario is impossible and illogical, respectfully submitted.

    I believe he has been involved in a kidnapping before and lives not far from and thats how he got away so fast. I believe that Clint is a boy in a mans body that’s why the lake of action his part. I’ve been told that tis guy made a pass at Natilie she told him where to stick it and he went for Holly she pretty much told him the same thing and he was afraid she would tell her father so he decided to grab her and kill her so when they got to his truck she felt something was wrong and started to leave but he grabed her and cut her throat put her in a bag a duffle bag and throw her out in the woods behind her house and between his house. Where he cleaned himself up. He was involved with another kidnapping before with his brother who is serving time in Texas for the next 30 some odd years. Why he felt he needed to do this I don’t know but he is armed and dangerest and needs to give up, because he cannot out run any 40 cal. bullit and he is a relitive to the Bobo’s I hope for his sake he has her down his basement alive or he remembers where he put her nd turns himself in because I don’t think Dana will be so understanding.If anybody knows a rose Kopp she claims she saw this in a vision. From what I understand Louisiana loves her. This senerio makes a little more since, for walking away into the woods inaffraid and carrying her books and lunch with her, God help us.

    I really have no idea what you are talking about, and the second you said “saw in a vision”, you lost me. I have written extensively on this case, and commented as well. My thoughts have not changed.

    Scots2, who are you talking about? Do you have a name? Or is this just who you think did this? Who is the brother you are referring to?

    Blink, I understood him.

    No, I did that part, it was the rest, it does not fit the known evidence or crime scene.

  7. Investigator says:

    scots2: I recognize your posts and this “theory” from Topix. You do know that most of what you read on Topix is BS? I’m sure LE is aware of the uncle you are referring to, but the suggestion that he was previously involved in a kidnapping is a rumor perpetuated by the clown who is attempting to control the Topix threads. Some people have an agenda that has NOTHING to do with locating Holly Bobo. Unfortunately, I believe this is just one example.

    Ok Blink what do you have, you say she’s dead with what evidence do you have that’s true. And what about the crime scene, come on it’s over 8 months now? You can tell us something, yes?

    Everything is on here for your perusal and I am repeating myself.

    I have no doubt in my mind that a car was used in Holly’s abduction, she was seen walking towards the woods with the camo guy around 7:50, the police arrived within 10 minutes and she was gone, so I’m wondering where did the perp park his car? near the bobo property? if that was the case Dana or Karen would have seen the car, I don’t know the area very well so I can’t tell for sure, also did they really go into the woods? is it possible that when the police arrived they were still in the woods? although I think they were very far by the time the police arrived.

  10. Edward says:

    Only the brother sees the camo guy …
    The brother controls all of “time” in this disapperance except for the neighbor hearing a scream.

    Lunch box/bag is found with no other leads.

    No other witness sees any car or truck with camo guy driving.

    No witness to the supposed offroad quad vehicle.

    Phone is possibly “placed” to be found by others.

    If I were a detective I would have to consider the brother.

    An altercation between brother and sister is not uncommon.
    He could control time.. He had the ability to place items.
    He creates The boogyman.

  11. Ginney says:

    The main problem I have is that no matter how confusing Clint’s story is I don’t think he did anything to Holly, according to The Sun article Holly talked by the phone with her girlfriend around 7:00, there were a flurry of phone calls followed between Holly, Drew and Karen about the confusion of Drew hunting on grandmothers property, Karen said she last spoke to Holly between 7:30 and 7:35 while Clint was still asleep in his room, so her mom saw her that morning, her dad spoke to her through the door, the police arrived around 8, so that gives Clint a half an hour to hide Holly’s body and clean the crime scene, throw her lunch bag, etc, so unless everybody is lying about talking to her that morning there’s no way Clint would have done this much less get away with the crime for almost 9 months now.

  12. Constance says:

    I agree, as screwy as Clint’s story is, he does not have enough time to be responsible for Holly’s disappearance. I think he was in a sleep fog and was humoring his mother by going out there with his gun and not until he heard about the scream did he even believe she was in danger. But I still don’t understand the bit about “preserving the crime scene” or whatever..and letting her out of his sight. And as far as we know, not knowing if there was a vehicle or chasing after to see what kind, etc…for her to get away so quickly there had to be a car or truck not far away, he should have heard it start up, possibly seen it, if he had looked. I think he just froze and waited for the police. And she was miles away before they arrived…

  13. Investigator says:

    Is there ANY possibility this abduction was staged? Rumors are running with this as a possible scenerio. As crazy as it sounds, it really isn’t any crazier than anything else that has happened in this case. People don’t just disappear without a trace and it doesn’t appear that the family, TBI/LE or anyone else wants to keep this Holly’s name out there. Not a single decent interview with the family and no recent announcements from LE. What is going on in this case!?

    No possibility it was staged, no.
    B

  14. Investigator says:

    I need to revise my previous statement. People do disappear without a trace, but it seems highly improbable, under the circumstances, in this case.

  15. Jeez! says:

    Have I been banned?

    heh?

  16. Liz says:

    Blink do you think they went into the woods or they were just heading to a car that was parked nearby? Judging by the pictures I’ve seen of the house there’s only one road to get out of the there, the rest is just woods! If the perpetrator was there before Karen and Dana left how come they didn’t notice if there was a strange car parked there? The police arrived just 10 minutes after the abduction, perhaps there was no car parked but Holly disappeared so quickly that a vehicle must had been involved!

  17. Cindy says:

    Hi Blink,
    The days have turned into weeks, weeks into months, the wait for any official update from LE is deafening. I am guessing that LE has one it not more than one POI in the case, but not enough evidence to make an arrest. I have my own thoughts regarding POI’s and have shared in the past. I just pray that the Bobo’s can have some resolution to Holly’s disappearance sooner than later. Keep praying for a miracle in this case.

  18. Alex says:

    Hello Blink,

    After passing many silent days about Holly, here is something new: http://www.jacksonsun.com/article/20120109/NEWS25/201090305/Ohio-man-accused-interfering-Holly-Bobo-case-Man-questioned-home-searched?odyssey=tab|topnews|text|FRONTPAGE

    Questioning Tony Calabrese, something that should have done so much time ago! He is among those things in this case that makes me feel sick. What is your idea about this? Do you know any relation with this man and Bobos?

    Hope you’d be all right and also, happy new year.

    Yes, I do. A lot, in fact.

    I cannot comment on it, but as a general rule, when idiots pretend to be something they are not and attempt to scam others in a criminal case, those folks should expect to be investigated.

    In fact, I flat out told two individuals who were attempting to request LE sensitive information from me under the auspice that it was in fact from the Bobo family, that they were bordering on obstruction or interference in a criminal case months ago. I will save you the response I got, but it was the usual rant that I do not know anything, am a fraud and get my info from topix, lol. I am ugly and my Mom dresses me funny, ok.

    That would include those besmerching my reputation on topix, who think they can post anonymously or say anything they want. A word of caution to all- you post it you own it, and there is no taking it back.

    Ask Calabrese how much fun it is, and how much he will be posting in the future.

    There is a missing 20 year old woman, and this is what assclowns do while pretending it has anything to do with advocacy. Y’all remember when I said the Bobo’s needed to clear everyone they were talking to and hire a PI? This is the primary reason. This creaton was in touch and corresponding and in some cases colluding with those claiming to be friends and family.

    This behavior ties up resources that should be looking for Holly Bobo.

    As far as Maher’s comment about blogs, he was not referring to http://www.blinkoncrime.com. I promise.

  19. Investigator says:

    Way to go Blink! These bozo’s who claim you get your information from Topix annoy me in ways that are not fit for publication, lol! I hope you go after every one of them and make them eat their words!

    I so appreciate you Investigator, but I have learned to ignore the leaks in septic tanks, as hard as it can be some days due to the the smell.
    B

  20. LaurieO says:

    Well, for what it’s worth, I dug a bit on Tony Calabrese by looking at the county records for Columbiana County in Ohio. He has quite a list of small claims court cases against him, as well as a petty theft and several traffic violations. This is all assuming that it is the same Tony Calabrese.

    To see what I found, you will need to go to

    http://www.ccclerk.org/case_access.htm

    and check both the County Municipal Court and East Liverpool Municipal search links on the right side of the screen. Then look by using the name Anthony Calabrese. I could be wrong and am not, in any way, trying to trash someone who may be innocent or have a name that is the same as a criminal.

    But what is obvious to me is that, assuming it’s the same guy, he has been trying to make money illegally or not pay debts for many years now.

    I so appreciate you Investigator, but I have learned to ignore the leaks in septic tanks, as hard as it can be some days due to the the smell.

    Thanks Blink! I really don’t know how you do it. I’m always running around with a close pin on my nose and a handful of plumber’s putty trying to fix the world. :-)

  22. Alex says:

    Blink, thanks a lot.
    You have said completely and more than enough about such people. I don’t know how much someone could be fool to interfere in a real case, and such a person even contacted the family.
    I am so sorry for Bobos, from deep in my heart and I know there is nothing to heal their wounded heart except a miracle, so I pray for such a thing.
    Also, I pray that the Great Lord take care of you and all your loved ones and as usual, I wait for new information just from your site.

  23. Investigator says:

    Nine months today since Holly’s abduction and not one step closer to finding out what happened to this beautiful young woman. No current information from LE/TBI. No substantial accounts from the family or LE regarding what happened that fateful morning. One of the strangest case I’ve ever followed. Odds are that she is no longer with us, but of course, anything is possible. The rumors have run wild in her case. The local residents are silent with the exception of prayer services at church. No word on the family requesting outside assistance from a reliable PI, SAR group. Bless you, Holly, wherever you are. Nothing left to do except pray for resolution and answers from LE, and that only leaves a queasy feeling in the pit of my gut.

  24. Cindy says:

    #24 – Investigator, I couldn’t agree with you more. I am so saddened by the inability of LE to solve this case. It, also, proves that if you don’t want someone to be found, it can be done, ie. Natalie Holloway. And thank you to Blink for keeping us informed as much as you can. Bless the Bobo’s and prayer for them.

  25. Investigator says:

    respectfully, and I admire your “out of the box” thinking, but yes, way off.

  26. Investigator says:

    Ok, thanks Blink. Whew, I’m actually relieved!

  27. Mamabear says:

    Blink, I know that you don’t want to repeat yourself, but I don’t recall you having stated that you believed Holly is no longer alive as stated by Scots 2, December 22 post? I’m just wondering if I did miss that. I’m still praying for Holly and her family and will continue to…I almost feel silly, at times, praying for her strength, health, sanity, and release when I read matter of fact statements in various places that say: of course she’s dead it’s been 9 months! I appreciate any input/wisdom. Thx.

    Unfortunately the odds are not in her favor mamabear.

    **Private**Private**Private**

    Hi Blink,

    Haven’t posted much recently but still check in several times daily. Thought I’d run something by you that’s been on my mind…You may or may not be able to answer this but several times you have stated that you felt this case is solvable but you seem to think it would be beneficial for a PI or new investigators to be involved (I tend to agree). I’m curious though, do you feel this way b.c (1)you think it would be beneficial for “fresh eyes” to be involved? Or, (2) do you think it’s possible that maybe local LE and/or TBI might be biased some and or while they do want to find Holly, at the same time, in doing so might expose some internal “corruption”, thus they kind of feel as though their hands are tied? Personally I can’t imagine them choosing to protect their own over finding a missing girl, but given a lot of the things that have already been exposed in the state of TN, I can’t help but wonder….just curious as to your thoughts on this.
    By no means am I trying to “bash” the local LE/TBI, but it would answer some questions like not filling the parents in on a lot, keeping them out of the media the first few months, the $100K reward money etc….
    (I marked this private, but if you do respond to this and want to make it public I have no problem with that!!!)
    Thanks Blink!

    Honestly, I feel like any comment I could offer is going to be negative. This case is a freaking mess.
    The biggest development in this case in months was the shakedown of a dude and his web posse of keyboard cowboys who WERE WARNED they were fos and to knock it off-

    (let that be a lesson those of you stalkaplenty’s out there)

    It is a problem, and this little lady deserves better.
    B

  31. Alex says:

    Dear Blink,

    Your comments are very interesting. I want to ask some points more specifically and of course, you are the one who decides to answer me or even not publish this and it is nothing more than your pure kindness and consideration to be a source for all whom after this case.
    You said: “This case is a freaking mess.”
    When do you think “this freaking mess” starts? From those hurrying searches with many people involved, or from when roadblocks haven’t provided soon or even from the eve of abduction, when anyone hasn’t entered the woods fast.
    And about “The biggest development”, do you really mean that silencing TC is the best move of LE/TBI until now?
    Do you really think that there is a dramatic lack of skill to manage such cases with LE or even the TBI?
    Thanks again for your patience and kindness.
    May the Lord take care of you and your loved ones and bring peace to hurt of all missing persons’ families specially Bobos, Amen.

  32. OSUfan says:

    Thanks for your response Blink. It’s very sad and Holly does deserve much better.

    Also, I’d like to correct myself in my last comment…I stated $100K reward-my bad, was thinking of another case. Hope I didn’t add confusion.

    @ Alex
    I don’t want to speak for Blink, but I believe she was just being very sarcastic when she stated TC as being the biggest development.

  33. Cindy says:

    Have there been any new or recent searches for Holly or have they quit searching altogether and by we I mean LE?

  34. Jill says:

    @Cindy LE called off searched since April if I’m not mistaken, I believe Holly’s dad and brother search the woods daily but outside of that no official searches have been made.

  35. jess says:

    Blink,
    I was watching ID channel and they were showing the Brooke Wilberger story. The abduction’s details were eriely similiar to Holly’s.(at least what we have been allowed to hear) Could this of been a copycat type of thing? It truely takes somebody with balls or insane to do something like this in broad daylight with her brother at home. Do you still feel this was personal or have you considered a stranger? I just feel like if it was someone who knew her they would have broke by now. As always my prayers continue for Holly and her family.

    I feel the individual at least knew Holly, I don’t know about the rest of the family but I suspect they would have to know the woods like they did. I do not think this is a serial offender.

  36. Kchea says:

    Blink,
    Holly Bobo updates and prayers, Facebook page is stating LE has someone in custody who they believe knows where she is?!?!? They said this is a HUGE break in the case. Do you know anything about this? Hope this is true!!! They are a very credible Facebook page…

  37. jeff says:

    Blink,

    I haven’t posted in a while but I still follow this site. I had the same question Kchea had. Seems from what I read this SO fits the description. Don’t know if its still too early or if you can shed some light on it.

    Is this what/who the FB page is talking about?

    http://www.jacksonsun.com/article/20120201/NEWS01/120201024

    I will be honest. Until the TBI (Kristin Helm) calls me personally, I do not believe a single online un-verified factoid about this case. This case stands alone for the most idiots perpetrating web fraud I have ever seen.

    Really not helping people, really not.

    Has anybody heard that the reward has been raised to $250,000. For her safe return.Hears a link.
    http://www.tennessean.com/usatoday/article/38478963

    While a donor can remain anonymous, a bond must be secured to call it a reward. In other words, either that money must be placed in escrow, or a bond for same (surety) must be granted.

    For her safe return only.

    B

  40. Constance says:

    Sadly, I doubt the person posting the reward will ever have to actually pay it out. How long does he/she have to make it available, I wonder? That is a lot of money to tie up, for a case that may never be solved.

    If there was really a bond or escrow account set up for this reward, I dare say that all MSM outlets would have taken the time to feature it for the family, as I would, whether or not I believe rewards work is irrelevant.

    I suspect that this is either a “pledge” by someone who has shown collatterall to meet the reward in good faith, or some other means that do not make this a legitimate reward in the first place.

    I do know that I was personally approached by someone claiming to be speaking on behalf of the family, and asked if I would consider being privately retained and paid by the existing reward, and that the family was also looking to hire a PI under this same guise. Obviously I declined.

    No professional would ever work that, nor could they, and I doubt seriously this person was truthful at all.

    This is another case where I am heartbroken at the lack of advice this family has.

    Hi Blink, I’m sure I’m missing something but why would anyone offer a reward only for her safe return? Especially now? I know we all would like for her to be alive but at this point it seems a slim chance. What would motivate anyone to come forward for the new bigger reward? If they know anything and she’s dead then why would the reward intice them?
    I have horrible grammar and only sort of remember something about sentence structure from the 5th grade. I even misspell words! So sorry for the garbledy-gook and I hope you can understand my question. Wouldn’t it be great if this would actually lead to something?

    #29. I do so hope that the Bobo’s would take your advice put the pressure on LE to solve this case. It is so very sad. They need bigger prayers for the return of their daughter.

  43. Learning manners says:

    Have you informed Karen who the individuals were that approached you?

    1. You are not going to use that hat here, have some respect, I gave you a new one.
    2. TBI is aware, and that Calabrese creeper was in the mix.
    3. I would advise them to establish the exact verbiage of the reward offering, what bank is backing it or holding the escrow if they want anyone to take it seriously.

    1. Idiots was referring to the ones you call “assclowns.”

    2. I asked if you informed Karen Bobo of the individuals that were attempting to solicit your services.

    3. Regarding the reward, I thought you said you would not be advising the family of anything?

    Well I am lost as to your point, I answered your questions, nobody would have had a clue as to who you were calling idiots. If you have a comment that is constructive or informational relevant to the case, we would love to hear it, otherwise I don’t do the bicker thing.

    Hello Blink,

    After passing many silent days about Holly, here is something new: http://www.jacksonsun.com/article/20120109/NEWS25/201090305/Ohio-man-accused-interfering-Holly-Bobo-case-Man-questioned-home-searched?odyssey=tab|topnews|text|FRONTPAGE

    Questioning Tony Calabrese, something that should have done so much time ago! He is among those things in this case that makes me feel sick. What is your idea about this? Do you know any relation with this man and Bobos?

    Hope you’d be all right and also, happy new year.

    Yes, I do. A lot, in fact.

    I cannot comment on it, but as a general rule, when idiots pretend to be something they are not and attempt to scam others in a criminal case, those folks should expect to be investigated.

    In fact, I flat out told two individuals who were attempting to request LE sensitive information from me under the auspice that it was in fact from the Bobo family, that they were bordering on obstruction or interference in a criminal case months ago. I will save you the response I got, but it was the usual rant that I do not know anything, am a fraud and get my info from topix, lol. I am ugly and my Mom dresses me funny, ok.

    That would include those besmerching my reputation on topix, who think they can post anonymously or say anything they want. A word of caution to all- you post it you own it, and there is no taking it back.

    Ask Calabrese how much fun it is, and how much he will be posting in the future.

    There is a missing 20 year old woman, and this is what assclowns do while pretending it has anything to do with advocacy. Y’all remember when I said the Bobo’s needed to clear everyone they were talking to and hire a PI? This is the primary reason. This creaton was in touch and corresponding and in some cases colluding with those claiming to be friends and family.

    This behavior ties up resources that should be looking for Holly Bobo.

    As far as Maher’s comment about blogs, he was not referring to http://www.blinkoncrime.com. I promise.

    I am sure you have relayed tips to TBI but you have been far from accurate and thats a fact.

    Your blog is no different then any of the other ones. Its a one man show.

    Really- how so? Please enlighten us as to what facts are in error. I have not “relayed tips” to TBI, I have confirmed and disregarded information by vetting it through them, and provided material information.

    Do your research before insulting someone already, this is beyond tiresome- and you clearly are not intending to offer any advocacy or progression to this case.

    You also have similar syntax to….

    Are you lost and looking for topix?

    I must of missed it. You said the TBI is aware. I asked about Karen Bobo. Why have you not contacted her directly and informed her of the individuals that are saying they are acting on her behalf? Wouldnt that be more proactive then all the talk regarding the bad advice they are getting? This is relevent to the case.

    Because the matter was an issue for LE, not a grief-stricken Mother.

    You seem defensive of something- are you one of those that gave them bad advice or acted on their behalf without their knowledge?

    It is tiresome, right?

    If you provide an email address I would be happy to enlighten you.

    I have nothing to hide, if you have facts to contradict anything I have written, you are welcome to post them, and if they are true, I will have no problem standing corrected. This is about finding Holly Bobo- not who figures it out or who is the smartest? You may post private at the top if it is only something you wish for me to know.

    This woman went missing at the same age both my nieces graduated college, it is horrific.

    I’ll take option 3. Someone who knows better then getting on these gossip sites but cares enough to not care anymore.
    You never know who is sitting behind the other computer, do you?
    I’m not acting on nobodys behalf or giving nobody any advice.

    Actually yes I do, that is the problem with folks thinking they are anonymous. Lol, ok.

    No such thing. Glad to hear your tasks have you away from gossiping, which seems to be all you did here, so yeah!

    I don’t know what to think about the high reward, is it really only for her safe return? Holly’s family still holds onto hope that she’s alive, and I may be overthinking a lot what Holly’s friends say, but they seem to be really confident that she’s going to return soon, maybe they just have faith since most of them are really religious people, but it makes me wonder, do her friends know something that gives them hope that she may still be alive?. Changing a little bit of subject, the police has been extremely quiet in this case, why no official timeline? how’s that going to damage the possibilities of solving this case? it would actually help to clear up Clint once for all and also would eradicate some of the confusion in this case, if The Sun hadn’t done an article about Holly we would still be clueless about a lot of things, for example Drew’s alibi. Maybe the police thinks the key to solve this case lays in the area and they have no need to share info with all of us, I hope the silence pays off someday, for the sake of Holly’s family and friends. It really bothers me that TBI claimed that they were one clue away from cracking this case, hope that’s true, because honestly that’s what gives me hope that this case is actually going to be solved someday.

    I have begun to believe that Clint is a “second victim” in this case. Based on his multiple, inconsistent, and somewhat illogical versions of the event, he had come across as a “weird dude” despite multiple reports to the contrary. In the early parts of the case, I questioned whether he was mentally sub-normal.

    I personally believe their are two issues at play:
    1) He is being asked to withhold the “full story” by LE.
    2) He may have embellished a few details so that he doesn’t appear to have been cowardly or irrational.
    I hope that Clint will soon get to tell the public the whole story when Holly’s abductor(s) goes to trial.
