    I suspect that Clint refused a lie detector test and has stayed away from the situation because he has knowledge of illegal activities that were occurring that night (e.g. drugs) but has no idea what ultimately happened to Brian. I also suspect that Clint shared what he knows with his attorney...

    Again, this does not “100%” show anything IMO, based on the graininess of the video. I think we shouldn’t make such claims of certainty when it’s far from certain.

    It seems like whenever the accident theory is debated, it always goes back to how implausible it is that he would be buried in concrete, as if that’s the only possible accident scenario. There are plenty of other ways for concealed accidents to occur. The Gateway complex is a large building. It...

    IMO: I don’t think the odds are very high at all. I don’t think Brian’s remains would even be intact at this point if they were outdoors this long. I am thinking if it were Brian we would be talking about scattered / fragmented bones, and I got the impression these were closer to intact. One of...

    Clint was not a premed student, nor is he a physician now. He is a scientist/microbiologist. I hear this misstated often and I think it’s important to be accurate. Nonetheless, I still think your point is valid in that Clint’s silence / lawyering up could be due to knowledge of illegal...

    Searching to their satisfaction isn’t the same as guaranteeing they didn’t miss something. Especially when the search occurred at a time when they were likely eager to expand their search outward from the building (and understandably so).

    I agree that it is possible that Brian possibly sadly ended up in a dumpster—either through foul play or drunken misadventure. If that happened, I would learn toward drunken misadventure over foul play. If it were foul play, I think it’s likely someone would have seen/heard something, someone...

    Yes. To all of this. There are many possibilities within the complex beyond just the construction area. Things get missed in searches. Drunk people do strange things and can end up in weird places. Here is what frustrates me most. There seem to be two camps when it comes to Brian theories...

    100% agree with this. I also think it’s quite possible that someone knows something illegal was happening that night (drugs, for example) but wants to remain silent about it. “Someone knows something” doesn’t necessarily mean that knowledge is about foul play, or that it’s direct knowledge...

    I appreciate your comments and input on the construction site given your background knowledge; however, this is an example of what I am referring to in my earlier post. I think it is a misstep to assume that “ruling out” the construction area (if we want to call it that) means there are no other...

    I read your post, and in it you had said “people need to stop being married to their egos and open their mind.” I agree. Keeping an open mind is crucial, and that includes scenarios that end both inside and outside of the building. “The point” of my post was that we can’t just dismiss the...

    Theories involving Brian being stuck or “entombed” in the bar do not necessarily have to end in him buried in concrete. As you suggested to others, perhaps you should open your mind to other ways one can get stuck in a rather large building. We have seen stories about people getting stuck in...

    I think you need to be really careful with making a statement like this, because it’s potentially misleading and borderline inaccurate. To my knowledge, there is no conclusive evidence that Brian left the bar. Conclusive evidence that Brian left the bar would include: -Him on video leaving the...

    Honestly we heard this last year too. I’m getting tired of “teasers” and then nothing happening, again. I hope I’m wrong about this but it seems like you’re trying to stir interest for something that doesn’t actually exist.

    Excellent discussion lately. Just throwing this out there: Is it possible that he is in the building but NOT the construction site? Someplace so bizarre that no one thought to check? Perhaps the construction site was/is a red herring which drew all the focus while the true answer lies...

    That’s certainly fair and I agree we should all do that. I also agree that learning from other cases is helpful. But I also just think it’s worth pointing out to readers who may not know the case as well that there aren’t really any similarities in the cases from what I saw other than “they...

    Examples like this get posted every few months and it honestly drives me insane. You won’t get any argument from me or any reasonably intelligent person that it is possible for someone to run off and start a new life. Those of us who argue that Brian running away is extremely unlikely aren’t...

    Agree this would be useful. Unfortunately, the only people present that night who the media specifically mention police talked to are Clint, Meredith, the band, Brightan, and Amber (am I forgetting anyone?). You’d think they would want to talk to anyone who has any recollection of Brian that...
