Clint got a .38 Colt revolver and went from the window to the back door. That's when he says he saw Holly and the man in camouflage walking into the woods behind the house. He says Holly was walking on her own and did not appear to be hurt.
Clint stepped outside and saw a pool of blood by Holly's Mustang. It was right where he says he had seen the two silhouettes. He wasn't panicked. He wasn't sure something horrible had happened to Holly. He just figured the blood may have been from a turkey Drew killed and brought back with him. But while Clint was outside, the neighbor showed up. That's when Clint called 911, too.

But he was still confused, still thinking there was a chance the man he saw with Holly was Drew. And if not, maybe it was their cousin Richie. Richie also hunted and could be wearing camouflage. As Clint tried to figure out what was going on, police cars started arriving. And then his mom made it back to the house.

The man in camouflage was not Drew and was not Richie. Clint ended up spending the rest of the day with law enforcement, answering questions and writing down everything he remembered for the police. That's why his dad saw him in the patrol car when he first got back to the house. Former Sheriff Keith Byrd was at the Bobo house when the search for Holly began.

Over the course of the search, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation sent pilots to fly over the woods to look for Holly. Water teams went into four different ponds and parts of the Tennessee River. Dogs were sent out to search for her. 75 wells were checked. And every day, more and more local volunteers signed up to look for Holly, too. Eventually, thousands of them were part of the effort.

A command center was set up for volunteers with tents and long plastic folding tables for passing out food. Lines of people in camo and boots stood in parking lots to sign up for the search.

When Holly disappeared, the weather was mild, but weeks into the search, violent storms flooded Decatur County and caused widespread damage to roads and buildings. The storms brought the search to a temporary halt. Eventually, volunteers were able to go back out in the foggy and damp weather. They put on yellow ponchos and raincoats that fell beneath their knees.
