Holly Lynn Bobo (October 12, 1990 – c. April 13, 2011) was an American woman who disappeared on April 13, 2011 from her family home in Darden, Tennessee. She was last seen alive by her brother shortly before 8 a.m. walking into the woods outside her home with a man wearing camouflage. In September 2014, her remains were found in northern Decatur County, Tennessee, and her death was ruled a homicide.[1] According to prosecutors, an indentation found on her skull is consistent with that of a bullet wound.[2]

Six men have been arrested for varying degrees of involvement in the crime. However, only three of the six men arrested have been prosecuted.[3] The prosecution has been heavily criticized for their refusal to produce evidence against the defendants, missing multiple discovery deadlines, and for making frequent changes to the charges against the defendants with little explanation. Three men are facing charges of especially aggravated kidnapping, first-degree murder and rape. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.[4] Of the other three men arrested, charges against two men were dropped, and one committed suicide without any charges being filed against him.

Most of the arrests were made on the basis of a confession by John Dylan Adams, who told police he saw his brother, Zach, and another friend, Jason Autry, with Holly at his brother's home after her kidnapping. It is unknown what led police to question Dylan about Bobo's disappearance. He has since alleged that the confession was coerced. All of the accused men denied involvement in the disappearance and very little evidence has been released.[5] Defense attorneys for the men complained that they still had yet to receive a bill of particulars detailing the case against their clients and the results of forensic testing done on evidence from the case over a year after the arrests were made and that the prosecution had missed multiple discovery deadlines, leading attorneys for the defendants to file motions to dismiss charges on the grounds of "silence or stonewalling".[6][7][8][9] In July 2015, it was announced that the defendants finally received access to all the evidence against them, although it still has yet to be released to the public.[10] In February 2017, the defense attorney for Zach Adams said that they still had not yet received all of the discovery and that there was no DNA evidence linking her client to Bobo's murder.[11]

The case has been met with several setbacks such as the death of a suspect, multiple changes to the prosecutorial team, and disputes with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI). The TBI even briefly withdrew its services to the entire district after the prosecutor accused them of compromising the case by proceeding "so slowly that the culprits were always one step ahead and that TBI... was leaking information and possibly covering up evidence."[12]

District Attorney Matt Stowe said he and the TBI are still "actively looking" to bring criminal charges against additional people, although he declined to name the parties or the charges.[13][14] The trial for Zach Adams is set for September 11, 2017.[15]

History

At the time of her disappearance, Holly Bobo was a 20-year-old nursing student at the Tennessee Technology Center in Parsons, Tennessee living with her parents and brother in Darden, Tennessee. Friends described her as shy and sweet. She was the cousin of country singer Whitney Duncan.[16] In 2017, Duncan released a song called "Better Place" in memory of Holly.[17]

Disappearance

A timeline of the events on the morning of April 13, 2011, was compiled on the basis of witness statements and phone records.

Investigation

Extensive searches of the area were conducted following her disappearance without result, aside from a lunch box believed to be hers that was found in a creek approximately eight miles from her home.[22] A shoeprint that matches Croc's brand footwear was found outside at Holly's residence.[6]

In September 2014, Bobo's remains were found by ginseng hunters in a wooded area of northern Decatur County, Tennessee, nearly 20 miles (32 km) from Darden.[1][23] The owner of the property said it was not uncommon for people to hunt there without permission.[24] One of the men who found the remains said he saw a large bucket in the woods, which he upturned. Details of the contents have not been released but in an interview, the man said he was disturbed by what he found. He then spotted Bobo's remains spread on the ground behind him.[23][25]

Arrests

Five men have been charged in connection to Bobo's disappearance, with the first of those occurring in March 2014; however, few details of the case against them have been released. Twenty-nine-year-old Zach Adams, his brother Dylan Adams, and friend Jason Autry have been charged with especially aggravated kidnapping, first-degree murder, and rape. Another two men, Jeffrey and Mark Pearcy, were arrested on charges of accessory after the fact and tampering with evidence, however charges against the Pearcy brothers were dropped. Another man, Shayne Austin, committed suicide almost a year after the others were arrested, with insinuations by law enforcement at the time of those other arrests that he may have also been involved in some way, but without any charges ever being filed against him. Police have yet to release what connection, if any, the men may have had with Bobo prior to her death and have not yet named a motive for the murder. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty in the case against the Adams brothers and Jason Autry.[4] According to court documents, the prosecution is pursuing the death penalty because "the murder was especially heinous, atrocious or cruel in that it involved torture or serious physical abuse beyond that necessary to produce death;" because it was committed by the suspects for the purpose of "avoiding, interfering with, or preventing a lawful arrest or prosecution;" and because the murder was "knowingly committed, solicited, directed or aided" by the defendants while each defendant had a substantial role in the murder, kidnapping and/or rape.[26]

In 2017, a gun, listed as an Arminus model HW5, 32 caliber Smith and Wesson long revolver was introduced into evidence by the prosecution.[27] It was reportedly found under water.[28] Court documents indicate that it is believed to be the murder weapon, calling it a "critical piece of evidence."[29]

Zach Adams

The first arrest in the case was made in March 2014, prior to the discovery of the body. Zach Adams was charged with first-degree murder and especially aggravated kidnapping after Adams' brother, John Dylan Adams, told police that he witnessed Bobo alive with his brother at the home they share following her abduction.[30][31][32] An affidavit for a search warrant states that Dylan told authorities that on April 13, 2011, he went to Zach's residence to get his truck. Dylan reportedly "observed Holly Lynn Bobo sitting in a green chair in the living room wearing a pink t-shirt, with Jason Wayne Autry standing just a few feet away." He also told police Zach was "wearing camouflage shorts, black cut-off-sleeve t-shirt and a pair of green Crocs" shoes. Dylan also reported that Zach told him "he had raped Bobo and videotaped it." The alleged videotape has not been found. Investigators also uncovered "a blond hair covered in dust from a bedroom closet" of Zach's residence. Whether any forensic testing has been conducted on the hair has yet to be released.[6][31][32]

Holly's remains were found several months after his arrest in a wooded area approximately 15 miles from Adams' residence.[33] An additional charge of rape was added a year later in May 2015.[34] It is unknown what led police to question Dylan about the Bobo case and he has since alleged that his statements were coerced.[35]

Jennifer Thompson, attorney for Zach Adams, has stated publicly that there is no forensic evidence against her client: "The state has been very clear in their discussions with me that there is no DNA that links Holly Bobo to Zachary Adams," she said.[36]

Jason Autry

In April 2014, Zach Adams' 39-year-old friend Jason Wayne Autry was also charged with especially aggravated kidnapping and first-degree murder on the basis of Dylan's statement.[31][32] Autry was also charged with rape a year later in May 2015. Aside from Dylan's initial statements, no additional evidence has been released connecting Autry to the crime.[34]

In the spring of 2017 it was announced that Autry is expected to testify against Zach Adams.[37] He has been offered federal immunity, but does not have an immunity agreement with the state.[38] He is still facing charges related to Bobo's murder, but nothing he testifies to at Zach Adams' trial will be used against him in his own prosecution.[39] Prosecutor Jennifer Nicols wrote: “The state and counsel for Mr. Autry agreed to discuss reduced charges against Mr. Autry after the trial against [Adams] and Mr. Autry’s truthful testimony.”[40]

Shayne Austin

Another man, Shayne Kyle Austin, was initially offered immunity in exchange for information regarding the location of Bobo's body.[41][42] Phone records indicate that Austin was in contact with Adams several times on the day of Bobo's abduction and police believed that Austin helped dispose of the body.[41][43] The agreement was withdrawn after Austin was unable or unwilling to lead them to the body and the district attorney released a statement that Austin "has not been completely truthful, forthcoming and cooperative as to any and all aspects of this investigation."[44] In April, Austin's attorney filed a complaint against the State asking for an immediate and permanent injunction preventing the state from charging Austin.[45] Austin was found deceased in February 2015 in Bartow, Florida of an apparent suicide.[46][47][48][49] Austin's attorney blamed the suicide on the continual threats of prosecution as well as the "witch hunt" style of investigation, where they relied on rumors instead of evidence. His attorney insists he had nothing to do with the murder and cooperated fully with police.[50]

Dylan Adams

In September 2014, Dylan Adams, Zach's brother, was charged with tampering with evidence for allegedly disposing of evidence on April 13, 2011.[51] The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) has not made public what evidence he has been charged with destroying and subsequently dropped that charge. He was then charged with rape based on a statement he made to police, where he allegedly admitted to raping Bobo.[52] His attorney alleges that he hasn't received any evidence from the state relating to the charges.[53] In May 2015, Dylan Adams was indicted on charges of first-degree murder, especially aggravated kidnapping and especially aggravated rape. The specific evidence against him has not been released.[54] Dylan is not expected to be called by either the prosecution or the defense at his brother's trial and is expected to plead the fifth if called.[55][56]

Jeff and Mark Pearcy

In July 2014, Jeffrey Pearcy and his brother Mark Pearcy were arrested and charged with accessory after the fact and tampering with evidence. They were arrested on the basis of allegations made by Jeffrey Pearcy's former roommate Sandra King. In the spring of 2014, Jeffrey and his two sons lived with her so his sons could finish school. King alleged that in May, Jeffrey showed her part of a video showing Adams assaulting Bobo, who is tied up and crying. She told police that she only watched a small clip and did not see the sexual assault. King made a recorded call to Jeffrey. She told him over the phone "That video of Holly, if it had been you, I would have watched it,'" to which he replied, "I know." King alleges that Pearcy's brother Mark shot the video.

Both brothers deny that a video existed and Jeff Pearcy denies knowing the other men who have been arrested for the crime.[57] Jeffrey claims that he was unable to hear Sandra during the phone conversation and that his ex-wife's name is also Holly. Police have analyzed over 20 phones, but have not found any video.[58] Charges against Mark Pearcy were subsequently dropped and the district attorney decided not to pursue the charges against Jeffrey Pearcy.[58][59]

Additional charges

District Attorney Matt Stowe said he and the TBI are still "actively looking" to bring criminal charges against additional people, although he declined to name the parties or the charges.[13]

Innocence claims

Despite several confessions, all men arrested for the crime have vehemently denied involvement in the disappearance at some point. Jason Autry spoke with a reporter about the case in May, 2014, stating: "I want to let them know they have an innocent man right here," said Autry, "I'm a drug addict and a thief, but I'm not a killer." Autry told the reporter that Dylan, who is in jail on gun charges, lied to investigators because of a longstanding feud with his brother and to reduce his own sentence. "They hate each other's guts and that's a way to get back at him."[32] Autry has also claimed that investigators tried to get him to testify falsely against Adams.[32]

A relative of the Adams brothers says that Dylan is mentally disabled and "has the mind of a child". He says that Dylan has some ability to read, but cannot perform other tasks such as telling time, and he believes that Dylan is being manipulated.[60] His family alleges that his confession was coerced and that according to Dylan, "[T]hey kept him up all night, would not give him anything to eat or drink and finally he said, 'What do you want me to say?'"[35]

Cindy Adams, the mother of Zach and Dylan Adams, claims that she has heard Dylan's confession and it doesn't fit with the known facts of the case. "If it had gone down the way that Dylan described it, they would have blood in that house. They would have found DNA in that house. They would have found hair in that house. They would have found a fingernail. They would have found something that placed Holly in that house. There's no chemical cleanup in that house. There's no nothing that ever indicated that Holly has been in that house, but if you listen to Dylan's story, and I'm not going to go into everything he says, but it's pretty graphic. There's no way they would not have found something," Cindy Adams said. She also claims there was extensive coercion: "In this statement Dylan is trying to tell his story as to what happened, and you've got this TBI agent saying, 'Don't you mean this? Don't you mean it happened like this?' And, 'No Dylan, it went down like this.' And you can honestly tell at the point that Dylan, I can as his mother, he gave up. He's like, 'OK, if that's what you said, OK," Cindy Adams said.[61]

Cindy told reporters that her two sons are "thieves and drug addicts" whose lives revolve around their addictions, but insists that pulling off a murder plot and covering it up is above their abilities. "Look at his rap sheet. I mean Zachary cannot even go out and steal a deer stand without getting caught," she said.[61]

Jeffrey Pearcy also claims the statements regarding his involvement were fabricated by King to assist her son who has been in prison for 14 years and has 24 years left on his sentence.[58] "I have been up front and honest about everything. I have willingly given them everything. Take it, I mean, it's there," he said. "My heart goes out to the Bobo family. It could have very well been one of my kids. For someone to give them false hope, and that's exactly what's been done to them," he said. "But for the justice system to just haul someone in and destroy their whole life, I mean, there's no sense in that at all."[57]

Zach Adams' defense attorney, Jennifer Thompson claims there is another suspect that has never been charged: "From what defense counsel can ascertain, this suspect has never been cleared by the TBI and in fact it appears the government has more evidence of his guilt than it does of the three defendants charged in the present case."[57]

Prosecution

The criminal case against the men charged has been met with strong criticism as well as conflict between members of the prosecution, complicating the investigation. District Attorney Matt Stowe was elected to office in the summer of 2014 following the arrests and stated that he believes he was elected in part due to skepticism regarding the arrests and questions over whether enough evidence exists against them to obtain a conviction. "[Voters] wanted another set of eyes on this Holly Bobo case; they weren't happy with everything that was coming out of there, and I think that they wanted someone else to take a look and someone else to say, 'We know what's going on.'"[13]

In the fall of 2014, Jason Autry's attorney, John Herbison, accused the prosecutor of arresting the defendants without probable cause as an unethical "investigatory technique" then adding and dropping charges strategically before hearings to avoid having to produce evidence against the defendants.[62][1][13] In October 2014, when evidence tampering charges were dropped against Dylan Adams just days after he was charged with rape, Herbison said: "If those reports are correct, it means that they're just playing games," Herbison said. "They charged him with something less serious in order to keep him locked up, and then when it comes times to answer questions about the charge, they dismiss that and charge him with a more serious charge in circuit court, where he's not entitled to a preliminary hearing."[62]

He also noted the state's similar treatment of Mark Pearcy. In August 2014, the state failed to arrange transport for Pearcy to the courthouse causing the hearing to be rescheduled for September, but just prior to the new hearing, the charges against him were dropped with the explanation given that Pearcy was facing unrelated federal charges and they were being forced to wait to proceed with the state charges. Herbison says the laws regarding the charges would not preclude the state charges. "If the state is claiming that is the case, the prosecutor is either ill-informed or being disingenuous," he said. Charges were never reinstated and the case against his brother, Jeff, was similarly dropped.[62][63]

Zach Adams' attorney, Jennifer Thompson, has repeatedly complained that evidence hasn't been turned over to the defense. For example, in 2014 DA Matt Stowe made a statement that because Holly was on her period at the time of her abduction, there was a lot of DNA evidence in Zachary Adams' Decatur County home. No DNA evidence was ever turned over to the defense. She also claimed that the medical examiner referred to materials that were never given to her.[64] In 2015, News Channel 5 reported that the evidence file contained a Crocs shoe print that was found in the carport. In 2017, when Thompson asked the judge to order the prosecution to turn over that evidence; the prosecution claimed the shoe print didn't exist.[65]

On December 17, 2014, nine months after Zach Adams' arrest, Judge Creed McGinley chastised prosecutors for delays in the case and for the state's failure to turn over evidence to the defense. "I am absolutely out of patience with these cases not moving," he said. Judge McGinley ordered that a bill of particulars will be filed for Zachary Adams' case within seven days and that discovery will take place immediately. The prosecution ignored both deadlines.[43][66] In response, attorneys for the men filed motions to dismiss charges.[43][66][67] The motions filed accuses the state of "silence or stonewalling", stating that, among other things, that the state has yet to disclose evidence that the skull found belongs to Bobo. "It would appear to me if they had a skull with a dental match they would have given that to us right away. It's a little suspicious why we don't have that forensic information," said Autry's attorney Fletcher Long.[68] In July 2015, it was announced that the defendants finally received access to all the evidence against them, although it still has yet to be released to the public.[6][10][69] Jason Autry's attorney John Herbison subpoenaed District Attorney Stowe and TBI director Mark Gwyn to testify at an upcoming hearing to ask the specifics of the dispute with the TBI and why the prosecution has delayed discovery for so long.[38][70]

Following the hearing in December, 2014, a dispute regarding the handling of the case led the TBI to briefly drop its investigation of the case and cut ties with the entire district, saying District Attorney Matt Stowe had accused them of misconduct. The TBI agreed to come back on the case after Stowe recused himself from the case and Jennifer Nichols was appointed as special prosecutor.[71][72][73][74] Following Stowe's allegations of misconduct by the TBI, the defense attorneys working on the case have stated that they intend to subpoena Stowe to question him regarding the alleged misconduct.[43] Emails by Wally Kirby, Executive Director of Tennessee District Attorney's Conference, revealed that Stowe accused TBI of compromising the case by proceeding "so slowly that the culprits were always one step ahead and that TBI... was leaking information and possibly covering up evidence."[12][75]

Zach Adams' trial, which was initially scheduled for July 2017, was rescheduled for September 11, 2017. The reason for the delay was a request by the defense to test the gun entered into evidence by the prosecution. They requested "to test the mud, water, and sediment to determine how long [the gun] had been there."[28]

Five men total have been granted immunity: Shayne Austin (who is deceased), Jason Autry, Victor Dinsmore, Michael Alexander, Jason Kilzer. It is unknown how the latter three figure into the case.[40] In 2017, Michael Alexander wrote a letter to news station WSMV stating that he was “not involved before, during or after in the Holly Bobo case.” He also stated: “I feel like I am being used and my life put in danger.”[76] The state has listed more than 200 potential witnesses and the trial is expected to last about two weeks.[2][77]

Media coverage

The case has attracted a high level of national media coverage.[78] Discovery Channel published an article several months after her disappearance discussing how the high levels of media coverage, including some instances of inaccurate media coverage, have hurt the investigation. A notable example of misinformation was the description of her last known movements. Early reports inaccurately reported that Bobo was dragged into the woods. Clint later clarified that Holly had in fact walked with the man wearing camouflage into the woods, either willingly or by coercion. This clarification led to rumors that Clint had changed his story and was a suspect in his sister's disappearance. Whitney Duncan defended him in an April 17 Twitter statement, stating that he was innocent and not a suspect in the case.[79] Some early sources also erroneously reported that the skull was found on property owned by Zach Adams' family.[80] Her body was found 10 miles away from Adams' property on land owned by the Tubbs family.[81][82]

Police have received scores of erroneous tips from the public, including a number of psychics, making it difficult for police to identify important leads.[79]
