seems all we have is a shakey eyewitness account... so what do we really have (if we leave it out).
Beautiful petite blond, blue eyed, 20 yr old driving a flashy black mustang, cousin to a country singer.
A scream at 7:40 am as she leaves for school, heard by neighbor.
Neighbor calls 911.
Police find blood and spilled soda by her car.
Holly is missing.
Clearly, a planned abduction. Holly is a very special 'type' of girl. One that is worth a fortune in the underground world of trafficking. The family would need a PI to get into the teen world of fast cars, sex and drugs to find her. Young women in the suburbs of America are sold into these situations quite often by someone they know, a friend or acquaintance. She could be as close as Nashville. jmo
I can agree with the premise of everything you have stated, but IMO it is hard to look at this as a human trafficking situation. When we consider CB's accounts of that morning, why would a someone in that line of work spend 15 minutes with their victim (arguing and walking around by the garage), why would they casually walk away towards the woods? Why would they scatter her belongings around the county? Usually traffickers will lure or quickly abduct a victim and minimize any connection that can be made back to them.
It appears that HB was violently attacked in some fashion by camo man. The perp in this case apparently knew the family's routine well enough, meaning they already knew or they had been stalking them. Do we think traffickers will stalk victims in rural areas and plan to abduct them from their home right as they are leaving for school or would they pick an equally attractive young women and abduct them as an opportunity presents itself? (such as an intoxicated woman walking down a dark street or a women walking down an empty alleyway) Also, there are so many vulnerable young women that traffickers generally do not need to abduct anybody, luring and coercing is a preferred method because it does not require drawing attention to your activities by abducting somebody. IMO This logic could also be applied to why camo man was probably not very involved in the local drug trafficking, this case sparked extensive searching of the community and we now know that MANY meth labs were busted up, not very good for business.
I could go on and on with that line of thinking, but here is something else to consider.
The traffickers have to expose these women to the public to make money, so would traffickers be holding onto a young woman whose face had just been plastered all over TV and amber alerts and risk being caught because of one girl?
Again, the trafficking angle cannot be ruled out, but I doubt that is what happened to HB. I could see the idea of somebody paying to have her abducted to keep for selfish reasons, but to abduct in a high profile way and then expose a victim to the public? This is not Mexico we are talking about.
Usually the simplest answers make the most sense and the simplest way to view this case is somebody was obsessed with HB and had to have her and used their knowledge of her families routine and the local area to make her vanish. I would also add that there is a good chance that HB was familiar with her abductor and vice-versa, otherwise a stranger spooked her and she screamed, caused her to bleed and then they had a nice morning walk and talk around her home for 15 minutes while her brother was a stones throw away.
Of course there is the REAL possibility that we do not know the true events of that morning and as time has went by, it has become harder and harder to buy into the accounts we have been given, something has been amiss in this case since day one and nobody has made an earnest attempt to clarify any details, the story just gets fishier with every new tidbit that is released.
