I believe Mr. Long has filed several on behalf of Autry but to my knowledge Ms. Thompson has not for Zach Adams. She mentioned in court that she had gotten little discovery. Unless I have missed something she has given no interviews or made reference to no evidence to substantiate Zach being held for over a year with no bond. Leads me to believe there must be something there.
Respectfully, the record in court, and in the media, is exactly the opposite of what you are claiming here. And note
the judge in the case saying the discovery is not being done as legally required, so the idea this is just an idle defense ploy claim is silly. (Don't forget he was so incensed that he ordered a 'bill of particulars" from the state, which they promised and then went into their "change the prosecutor" stall using the manufactured drama versus the TBI.)
Here's a sample. There's plenty more, including details of the court hearing in December, more interviews and at least one more motion filed in April, but imo this should be enough to prove the point that Adams is singing the same tune as Autry is.

"Attorneys for two suspects accused of kidnapping and murdering Holly Bobo are asking for the charges to be dismissed.
The motion filed by attorneys Fletcher Long
and Jennifer Thompson says they have yet to see a bill of particulars, or a detailed account of why Jason Autry and Zach Adams have been charged."
"Due to the lack of evidence being turned over to them, Long
and Thompson are requesting charges be dismissed.
They further request the state of Tennessee be ordered to pay the defense teams fees for being forced to file and argue this
motion.
"
Judge Creed McGinley also expressed concern that key evidence
had yet to been provided to defense attorneys."

Authorities say they have completed their analysis of more than 460 pieces of evidence in the case of a woman whose partial remains were found three years after her disappearance, possibly bringing defense attorneys a step closer to seeing how prosecutors have linked their clients to her.
Two men, Zachary Adams and Jason Autry, were arrested last spring and charged with murder and kidnapping in the case of Holly Bobo, a nursing student who was 20 when she disappeared from her house in April 2011. In October, John Dylan Adams was charged with raping Bobo. All have pleaded not guilty.
No trial has been set and
the defendants' lawyers have filed a motion to dismiss the charges. The attorneys said they had not received any evidence linking their clients to the crime. Tennessee Bureau of Investigation spokesman Josh DeVine said Thursday that some hair samples have been sent to the FBI for testing, but the TBI has analyzed all the evidence it has received.
Still,
it was unclear when the defense would receive any information. District Attorney Matt Stowe told The Associated Press that they would get the evidence they're requesting
"at some point."
Jennifer Lynn Thompson, Adams' attorney, says state prosecutors have not even told her who found Bobo's remains or where they were found.
"I do not understand what is happening," Thompson said. "I have never before been involved in a case where there is no information about why my client was charged."
In the
motion to dismiss, Thompson and Fletcher Long, Autry's lawyer, asked the judge to force prosecutors to produce "all dental record analysis and forensic studies" performed on the skull.
