The Fate Of The Final Defendant In The Holly Bobo Murder Case
By Nick Beres | News Channel 5 | July 9, 2018Tenn. - What's next for the state's star witness in the Holly Bobo murder case? Jason Autry is charged, but he helped send the two other defendants -- brothers Zach and Dylan Adams -- to prison. Now, some believe Autry, who is still jailed awaiting trail, will get a sweetheart deal.
That may happen, but not anytime soon. It's been ten months since a jury convicted Zach Adams of kidnapping raping and murdering Holly Bobo. He's now serving life in prison. There's no debate, Jason Autry put them there.
"What was your plan on disposing of Holly's body. Gut her," testified Autry at trial.
Autry is a co-defendant. He was charged along with the Zach and his brother Dylan Adams in the Bobo case.
"That's the way the game is played. You have circumstantial case with some physical evidence, but you need someone to tell the story. So, he was important. He told the story. and he was valuable. How valuable he was we'll find out when they cut his plea deal," said legal expert attorney Jim Todd.

Zach Adams attorney Jennifer Thompson has filed a notice of appeal. And she plans to cite several issues, alleged mistakes, arguing for a new trial.
So Autry could remain locked up until the appeals court rules - a least a couple more years.
For now, Autry remain incarcerated without bond in the Riverbend Maximum Security Prison.
