· About a week after the abduction, their office asked for volunteers to help with the investigation, and he agreed to help.

· On April 23rd, 2011, he was asked to speak to Zach Adams, who he did not know.

· He, a task force officer, a Decatur County sheriff, and a Highway Patrol officer went to Zach’s residence, asked him what he knew about Holly Bobo, and asked for an alibi.

· He noticed Zach had visible scratches on his arms, knees, and legs. Zach agreed to let him photograph the scratches, and the photos were identified in court.

· The pictures show Zach smiling with large linear scratches on his arm.

· Zach told him he had gotten the scratches after being arrested in Henderson County and was cut by briars while running from the police.

· He agrees he interviewed Zach at about 9:25 am.

· He states Zach’s alibi for the day of Holly’s abduction was that he woke up at about 10 or 10:30am, and there was no one in the residence to verify what he had done, and that he and Dylan had taken their friend Shayne to the Shell station. He gave him his cell phone number, social security number, and drivers’ license number, and disclosed that he had a former girlfriend named Rebecca Earp.

· Zach gave them consent to search his house “as long as he was with [him].” He also allowed them to look underneath his house, which he noted “did not appear recently disturbed.”

· He states they were there for around an hour and spoke to Dick and Dylan Adams.

SA Arthur Viveros

Testimony Summary:

· He was an FBI special agent working the Holly Bobo case in 2011.

· He was the FBI’s lead case agent.

· He participated in the search of Terry Britt’s residence.

· He states they vacuumed the vehicles present and entered all the buildings.

· He had a cadaver dog team hit on some tools, and one or two of the vans.

· They also seized Terry Britt’s ponytail and the handwritten receipt.

· He also participated in the wiretap.

· He states that Terry Britt’s sister called him and warned him not to speak on the phone because the police may be listening. He responded that he knew they probably were wiretapping his home, and that “these whores” (referring to law enforcement) would try to pin the Holly Bobo case on him.

· He participated in investigations of several other suspects.

· He and Brent Booth interviewed Terry Britt, and determined that Britt contacted his wife, who left work quickly to show them the receipt.

· They also bugged the home, and heard Terry Britt say to Janet Britt that, “These whores” (again referring to law enforcement) were going to “hang this case on [him].” He also stated he did not know what he did that day. Janet told him that they left the house at 10:30, went to Camden, etc. and Terry Britt began to remember the “events” of that day. This conversation was after Britt said he believed he was being recorded. Agent Viveros also states this conversation was not recorded due to a technical glitch.

· He spoke to Dylan Adams, and when Zach arrived and saw he was law enforcement, he began yelling at him and telling him to, “Get the fuck out of here.”
