Today is the one-year anniversary of the disappearance of Holly Bobo. She was supposedly "led" from the backside of her property in Darden, Tennessee. The perp, an unknown man in camouflage hunting gear, was allegedly watched by the missing woman's brother as the two disappeared into the Tennessee woods. Since the disappearance, nothing but mystery and speculation have existed along with the crazy twists and secrecy by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. Hopefully in the next year this case will change, because isn't it time for Holly to come home?
The last true case update came with the alleged discovery of the remains of Holly Bobo, but the TBI says that the sheriff in Alabama who made the announcement was wrong—and that no body had been found. Since then, nothing. That means Holly is still out there somewhere, unless the TBI are the ones lying and that wouldn't be right, would it?
As far as the family's appeals to the media goes, it's only been glimpses here and there of Karen Bobo wanting her daughter home, but where is Clint Bobo when all of this is still going on? Is he purposely not speaking to the media? Have the family attorneys decided to keep him out of the spotlight? Clint Bobo was the last person to see his sister. In fact, he watched her alleged abduction, or so he says. Still, his story has been shaky at best and bizarre at the least with details changing each time he has been spoken to by interviewers regarding his sister's strange disappearance.
Will this year bring any new statements from the 25-year-old man who watched his little sister go into the woods with her unknown captor? Or will this be another full year of no clues and no updates?
Hopefully someone does the right thing in Tennessee, really soon.
Until then, the community will gradually dwindle in interest as it seems to have. The vigils and the events held in memory of the woman seem to become more and more rare as time passes. This week there are bike rallies and church functions for Holly, but what about the next year, or the year after that?

I know that we are not superman, Batman and Robin and we don't have special powers to fix the problems of societies, to catch criminals. And we don't have the special preventive powers of the movie "Minority Report" of Tom Cruise. But I think that in this country people tend to concentrate too much on their daily activities like their mowing of their lawns, their domestic work, their grocery shopping. While ignoring 100% what happens around them.
And that ultra-individual behaviorism creates a sort of *band wagon* effect, in which you see that nobody cares about you, so you ask your self why you should care about others. And that's the way people in America behave. So I think that one of major reason of why this girl Holly Bobo was stolen so easily, is because of that which i wrote of people concentrating 100% on their own narcissistical selves while forgetting what is happening around them.
That's just what Clint Bobo did. he was minding his own business, while Holly Bobo was being stolen. And apathy is plain evil, not caring about others around you is plain evil. People in America have a legalist worldview, in which all you gotta do to be a great citizen is to not break the laws, not kill, not steal and not rape. But you still can be an evil citizen by behaving in a narcissistical way without any social responsability for other humans who live around you.
So Clint Bobo was 50% guilty for this crime for his narcissistic, apathetic behavior on the day that Holly Bobo was stolen

Some people even call it the *price* of freedom albeit a very high one.
The US police is not really a people's police, it is a police to guard and protect the interests of Donald Trump, US rich senators, corporate elites, celebrities and all the rich people of USA.
From a scientific analysis of all crimes. The only real scientific good solution for crimes in America is a political revolution. To radically overthrow the current system of government to be replaced by a participative workers anti-war, progressive democracy. But for that we need an objective revolutionary situation in USA. And we are not at an objective revolutionary situation in America. So I guess we will just have to wait for americans to wake up from The Matrix.
Thanks
