Thanks Bessie for starting this thread. I had never heard about Brandon Wise before last night's WWLTV news story. Looks like I'm not alone.
And KTGirl, I thought the same as I watched last night. Seems like since he called family while in jail, he would have called once he was out. Did someone (a friend) pick him up? Did anyone see him after being released?
Something seems strange with his release to me, too.
Brandon has a Namus page:

Per Namus, looks like he was released from NO Central Lock Up...."Brandon was released from central lock-up in New Orleans. He has not been seen or heard from since. He may have gone to Houston, TX"
According to the news report from WWLTV his brother went to bail him out, but he was already released...the charges were dropped? Maybe they needed space for more violent criminals that night?
“What's so strange about it is that when he went to jail my other brother went to bail him out and by the time he went down there, he said he was already released,” Avis says.
Brandon was booked in Orleans Parish Prison for disturbing the peace and criminal trespassing. But at 7 pm on June 1, 2006, the Sheriff's office released him on all charges. This time though, he didn't contact his family, and he hasn't been heard from since.
