DECATUR COUNTY, Tenn. – The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) has charged Zachary Adams, 29, with an additional criminal count in the ongoing investigation of the disappearance of Holly Bobo.
According to a TBI release, more information has surfaced in recent weeks, which led special agents to secure an arrest warrant Tuesday which charges Adams with coercion of a witness.
On March 5, a special Decatur County Grand Jury returned indictments on Adams, charging him with felony first degree murder and especially aggravated kidnapping in connection with the disappearance and murder of Holly Bobo.
“We will not tolerate any kind of coercion in criminal cases,” said TBI Director Mark Gywn. “But in a case like this, which has attracted so much interest and required so many resources, rest assured we will fight hard to protect the integrity of our work, as we seek justice for the family and friends of Holly Bobo.”
Bobo disappeared from her home in Decatur County on the morning of April 13, 2011. TBI and other agencies have spent several hundred hours on the investigation, which remains ongoing. Anyone with information related to the case can call 1-800-TBI-FIND.
