On April 13th, 2011, twenty-year-old Holly Bobo, a nursing student at the University of Tennessee at Martin, was abducted from her Darden, Tennessee home. She woke up early that morning to study for an 8 AM exam. Her parents were at work, but her brother was home and saw her outside with a man he thought was her boyfriend.
 
Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the murder of Holly Bobo. There were some neighbors who gave some possible clues to police, but the case went cold for years. Then a man came forward to say he knew what had happened to Holly and implicated others. Several men were tried and convicted but many think that the authorities convicted the wrong people.

On August 12th, 1967, Buford and Pauline Pusser were ambushed while driving, and Pauline was fatally shot. Buford was shot in the jaw.
