The prosecution's case against Zachary Adams, based in large part on information from co-defendant Jason Autry, was reiterated. It's as chilling and terrible as we imagined.
Jason Autry told investigators that Zachary Adams asked him to help dispose of Holly's body after Adams had drugged and raped her. Thinking she was already dead, Adams told Autry he was going to "gut" Holly's body so she would not float to the surface once they dumped her into the Tennessee River, according to the prosecution.
Holly allegedly was wrapped in a blanket inside the vehicle -- but apparently she was still alive. She then made a noise and moved, prompting Adams to shoot her in the head, prosecutors claimed.
Prosecutor Hagerman told jurors that evidence and testimony will show Adams told Autry that he, Shayne Austin, and John Dylan Adams -- the defendant's brother -- had kidnapped and raped Holly. Austin was found dead of an apparent suicide in 2015.
