  • Bobbi Kristina Brown Story Not Over As Murder Investigation Now Begins

    Bobbi Kristina Brown’s death has set in motion something that could not be done while she was lying in that hospice center in Georgia. The death of Bobbi Kristina Brown will now start to be investigated to see if she was murdered.

    After weeks of media vigils and rumors, the family of Bobbi Kristina Brown announced Sunday that she had died. Bobby Brown’s lawyers issued a statement on his behalf.

    “Yesterday Bobbi Kristina Brown took her place in heaven. Krissy fought to get well for months, however she has [succumbed] to her injuries.”

    Another statement from the family in general read:

    “Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away July 26, 2015, surrounded by her family. She is finally at peace in the arms of God. We want to again thank everyone for their tremendous amount of love and support during these last few months.”

    But it is the statement from the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office that all but guarantees that the name Bobbi Kristina Brown will not leave tabloid pages for week or even months to come.

    “The death of Bobbi Kristina Brown has been reported to the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office in accordance with state death investigation laws requiring investigation of known or suspected non-natural deaths. Because the events at her home leading to her death occurred in Fulton County (Roswell), her death has been reported to the Fulton County Medical Examiner for determination of the cause, manner, and circumstances of death. Despite the long interval between her being found unresponsive and her death, an autopsy will still be necessary to further evaluate possible causes of death or contributing factors.”

    The time between Bobbi Kristina being discovered unresponsive in her bathtub in January and her eventual death “complicate reconstruction of the events surrounding her initial unresponsiveness. Interpretation of autopsy findings and other information will also be challenging. However, an autopsy could be helpful to address questions which may arise about the cause of her unresponsiveness and eventual death.”

  • Holly Bobo: Remains Found and Identified

    Holly Bobo, a nursing student from rural Parsons, Tennessee, went missing back in 2011. Her brother was the last to see her–walking toward the woods with a man dressed in camouflage. He mistakenly believed the man was Holly’s boyfriend. She was never seen again.

    Human remains discovered on Sunday, not far from her hometown, have been confirmed as hers. She was just twenty years old when she disappeared.

    Holly Bobo’s remains were found on property that belongs to Zachary Rye Adams’ family. He was previously charged with kidnapping and murdering the young woman. He and a second man also charged in her disappearance–Jason Autry–have pleaded not guilty.

    Keith Byrd took over as sheriff of Decatur County, Tennessee just days before the remains of Holly Bobo were discovered. When first taking office, he pledged to bring her case to a close.

    “The finding of her body was more of a relief than anything,” Byrd said in an interview with ABC News. “They had already come to grips with the idea that she was dead.”

    The Huffington Post reports that two men found a skull on the aforementioned property. It is uncertain as to whether an entire body–or just the skull–was found. What matters, of course, is that Holly Bobo was identified, and now her family can finally make plans to lay her to rest.

    Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director Mark Gwyn said during a news conference that ‘the Bobo investigation has been the most expensive and exhaustive in TBI history, and is not over yet.’

    Holly Bobo’s family is expected to make a statement to the media some time on Tuesday.
