Holly Bobo, 20, Tenn. missing. & Karen Swift

[HairOfTheDog]

I was just thinking about this case yesterday! The wheels of justice and all that.

It's been a year since you posted this comment................and still no trials.

Here's a brief update on the case as of last week.

DEFENDANTS/CHARGES:
--Jason Autry and brothers Dylan and Zachary Adams are all accused of aggravated kidnapping, rape, and killing of Holly Bobo, the 20-year-old nursing student who disappeared in 2011.

TRIAL DATES & STATUS:
--The judge has not decided whether or not he will be severing the cases for Dylan and Zachary Adams. If their case is heard together, they will be tried on April 3, 2017. If they are tried separately, one of them will be tried on April 3, 2017 and a separate trial date will be set for the other brother/defendant.

--Jason Autry's trial has been severed; he will be tried separate from the Adams brother. His trial date has been set for July 10, 2017.

TRIAL VENUE:
--During last week's hearing, the judge said that a change of venue will likely happen to ensure a fair trial for the men. The trials will most likely be held in Hardin County.

TRIAL SECURITY & DISPLAYS:
--Judge Creed McGinley has already inquired about security. “Metal detectors, as well as X-rays and potentially the dogs might be run."

--The defense raised concerns about bias, including trial attendees wearing pink and green ribbons representing justice for Bobo displayed across Decatur County. McGinley assured them that as the trial date approaches, things will change. “I will not tolerate signs, placards, t-shirts, anything that could be perceived as trying to influence prospective jurors,” the judge said.
