The area where "hunters" randomly found her skull was searched by air and by ground. You mean after all this time her skull was just laying there on the ground? Somebody buried or got rid of the rest of her body and just left her head sitting their in the middle of the woods?! None of this up to this point makes any logical sense. That's great for the family that finally have closure on whether or not she's really dead or alive but I have to step back and say, "WHAT?!" I'm in no way questioning the fact that Zach Adams is a pos, but did anyone question the random hunters?

I thought that was a little odd. Maybe she had been buried somewhere else and the body got moved after the arrests started? They clearly think more people are involved, so it's possible someone put her remains back there thinking no one would find them since the area had already been searched.

This seems most plausible to me.

Apart from the astonishingly poor writing, what jumps out at me is the lack of detail. I hope this isn't just a ton of circumstantial evidence they're going to use to try to get all these guys to flip on each other.

Adams brothers' cousin says family believes they're innocent
11:01 p.m. CDT September 19, 2014

Family reacts to arrest of Dylan Adams on evidence tampering charge in Holly Bobo case; TBI seen at Adams family property again Friday.
Despite the arrest of Zachary Adams and now his brother John Dylan Adams, members of their family are holding on to the belief that the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has charged the wrong people in the Holly Bobo murder case.

But at the same time, one relative said that if she thought Zachary Adams were guilty, she would want him punished

The Jackson Sun corresponded with Leigh Ann Griggs, a cousin of the Adams brothers on their mother's side, on Thursday. Griggs has spoken before on behalf of the Adams family.

Her words Thursday indicated sympathy and prayers for the Bobos, but also her strong belief in the innocence of her kin.

"We share the community's devastation in finding out that Holly is no longer with us," Griggs wrote. "We continue to pray for strength and understanding for her family."
Griggs said she had no comment about the charges announced Thursday against John Dylan Adams, who goes by Dylan, on one count of tampering with evidence in the case. According to court documents, Dylan Adams, 26, told TBI agents that he disposed of an item or items he knew possessed evidentiary value relating to Holly Bobo. The TBI did not say what evidence he is accused of destroying, but did say that it happened the same day Bobo was kidnapped.

Zach Adams, 30, was indicted in March on charges of murder and kidnapping in the death of Bobo. A second man, Jason Autry, 39, was indicted on the same charges in April.

Bobo, 20, was kidnapped from outside her home in Decatur County on April 13, 2011. Her partial remains were found last week in the woods near County Corner Road. Investigators have said they believe Zach Adams and Autry are responsible for kidnapping Bobo and killing her shortly after she was abducted.

Speaking for the Adams brothers' family, Griggs wrote, "We feel, as always, that the true person/persons responsible for this horrendous crime have not yet been apprehended; and as always, continue to pray for the truth and justice that the Bobo family seeks and deserves."

Griggs has been a strong defender of Zach Adams since early on after the TBI's announcement of its investigation into his role in Bobo's disappearance. Zach Adams was indicted shortly after the TBI searched the property where he and his brother both lived, on Adams Lane in Holladay, in late February and early March.

Agents were seen searching the property again on Thursday, but the TBI has not commented on whether anything was found.

On Sept. 9, the day after Bobo's remains were identified, Griggs wrote on her Facebook page: "I pray for justice for (Holly) and her family, while maintaining my belief that the people arrested so far, are innocent of this heinous crime."

A woman named Susan Miller thanked her. Griggs responded by writing, "I love Zachary too. I know what he looked me in the eye and told me. I also know what the evidence does not say. Killers lie. People lie. People change. Drugs change people. EVIDENCE DOES NOT LIE. It can be manipulated, but it does not lie. If I thought for one minute, Zachary had any part in this, I would want him punished. It would make me sick, and I would want him punished. I would not love him any less, but I would want him punished."​

Everything I've seen following this case has been circumstantial and there has been no smoking gun as well as some theories being very strange.

Rumor is that Dylan Adams has an IQ around 70 and has the mental abilities of a 10 year old. The confession may not hold water or he may not be able to stand trial. I've seen several Law & Order episodes.

Charges dropped against 2 suspects in Holly Bobo case

Updated: Oct 15, 2014 2:08 PM PST

DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. - Charges against two suspects in the case surrounding Holly Bobo's disappearance and murder have been dismissed.

The District Attorney General's Office confirmed to News 2 Wednesday that the state is no longer pursuing charges against John “Dylan” Adams and Mark Pearcy at this time.

Both men faced charges of tampering with evidence in the case and Pearcy faced an additional charge of accessory after the fact.
The state, however, retains the right to file those charges again in the future.

The decision is based on a number of variables which the state says they cannot discuss due to the ongoing investigation into the murder of Bobo.

The District Attorney General's Office also said they have consulted with the Bobo family regarding the decision and the reasons for it

On Tuesday, however, Adams was additionally charged with two counts of the forcible rape of Bobo which allegedly occurred on April 13, 2011, the day the 20-year-old nursing student disappeared from her home in Parsons, about 100 miles west of Nashville. Those charges are not being dismissed........................................

I would imagine the defense will be able to use this to their advantage when going to trial. "You were sure these people were guilty and charged them, then you dropped the charges....."

Autry's attorney weighs in on changes in Bobo case

DECATURVILLE, TN (WSMV) -

There have been several developments in the Holly Bobo case this week, and one person who is not happy about that is the attorney for Jason Autry, one of two people charged with Bobo's kidnapping and murder.
"I suspect the state fears cross-examination of its witnesses similar to a slab of bologna fearing the slicer," said John Herbison, Autry's attorney. "I don't think your station could broadcast if I said how I do feel about it."

Wednesday, the state dropped tampering with evidence charges filed against Dylan Adams and Mark Pearcy. The state did not realize Pearcy faced unrelated federal gun charges, and they have to wait to proceed with state charges.

"If the state is claiming that is the case, the prosecutor is either ill-informed or being disingenuous," Herbison said.

Adams still faces two counts of rape, which were filed Tuesday.

Herbison said all of this is the state's way of avoiding preliminary hearings so they don't have to divulge information...........................................

Holly Bobo rape suspect Dylan Adams appeared in a Decatur County courtroom for an arraignment Wednesday morning.

Adams was charged last week with two counts of forcible rape of Bobo. He pleaded not guilty. A judge set his bond at $25,000.

Investigators say Adams admitted to raping the then 20-year-old nursing student on April 13, 2011, the day she went missing from her home outside Parsons, about 100 miles west of Nashville.

Adams' brother Zachary is charged alongside Jason Autry with aggravated kidnapping and first degree murder in the case.

Dylan Adams' next court appearance is scheduled for December 17.
