What Happened to Holly Bobo?: A Scream on Swan Johnson Road
The day that it happened, we had some small search teams that were put together to look into the woods where she was led away from her house.

It's a ranch-style house, sit back in the woods. There wasn't a lot of residences on that road. As a matter of fact, their house was the last house on that road. My wife at that time was the rural mail carrier for that area. She carried their mail for years before and after Holly's abduction.
