Early on, just days into the search for Holly, police had looked into four men with a history of drug use who were all friends. Zach Adams, his brother Dylan Adams, Shane Austin, and Jason Autry. Karen Bobo had heard about those men, too, and ended up talking to all four of them. In 2017, she told ABC News why she did her own interviews as the search for Holly continued.

Until your child is found or you know what happened to them, I don't think anyone could ever do enough in a parent's eyes. I often said, I guess I would have fought Goliath. You know, I just had no fear. I was trying to find my daughter. All that fear leaves you when you're looking for your child.

Karen Bobo had actually been Zach Adams' fourth grade teacher, and she told ABC News that her visit to him stood out to her.

I mean, he was just rambling on different things. He was, I don't know, I kind of describe it as... A lion in a cage. But the other thing he said was he could call someone and make it look like it was coming from my number.

To her, that was a bizarre thing to say. So Zach Adams and those three other men would stay on her mind.

127.111 - 134.493 Unknown Speaker

At that point in time, everybody was still a suspect, but their names just kept on coming up over and over.
