What happened to Kelly Boudreaux, 23?
According to Cumberland County District Attorney Billy West in court, Bordeaux had divorced her husband in April 2012 and was dating a man from her home state of Florida when they met Holbert in Froggy Bottoms. .
She and Holbert hit the bar for an evening of drinking, karaoke and pool after her boyfriend left for Florida.
West claims that later that evening, Bordeaux became aware of Holbert’s status as a convicted sex offender. In the early hours of April 14, 2012, Holbert asked Bordeaux if they could spend more time together outside the pub, but Bordeaux turned him down with a “disparaging comment about him being a sex offender”. , according to West.
West claims Holbert punched her, knocked her unconscious, dragged her to her car and drove her to his makeshift camp behind the bar. Bordeaux screamed as soon as she regained consciousness. Holbert “hit her until she stopped screaming, stopped moving,” the prosecutor said.
The next day, Holbert buried Bordeaux after driving into nearby woods.
Authorities questioned Holbert several times after Bordeaux disappeared because he was the last person to see her. However, he insisted that he only dropped Bordeaux off at his apartment complex that night and was unaware of what happened next.
According to West, Holbert neglected his responsibilities as a registered sex offender and was therefore imprisoned for much of 2012 and 2013. According to West, even though some other inmates said he made derogatory statements about the disappearance of Bordeaux, there was not enough evidence. to support the charges against him.
In late 2013, Holbert befriended David Marshburn, a private detective from Smithfield working independently on the Bordeaux case. A few months later, Holbert drove Marshburn to Bordeaux’s shallow burial.
W. David Smith Jr., a defense attorney, said in court Friday, “This is an awful situation. Smith claimed Holbert was drunk and simply “cracked” when Bordeaux said he was a sex offender.
“He neglected his morals. He ignored common sense,” he said. Smith said that throughout the extended search for Bordeaux after his disappearance, Holbert repeatedly considered coming forward and confessing, but ultimately “lacked the confidence to do so because he realized what he was looking for. was going to have to deal with.”
