May 12-15, 2011 Searches:
The plan for the May 12-14 searches was to detail - search by HRD canine as many fields as possible in the area surrounding Mud Creek. This involves walking furrows in 15-20 foot increments which is quite energy intensive and time-consuming. Unfortunately, the rain in the area received the week prior to the search made the creek's water level high and the fields very muddy. Some progress was made, but not as much as hoped for.

This story has had me curious for so many years now. I came across it on here and have followed it. It's sad to see little updates on it. I can't believe there are still no clues as to where he ended up.
My own guess based on everything that's been discovered is that he slipped in the dark when he unexpectedly encountered the creek bank where he wasn't expecting any, maybe hit his head and got knocked out, then drowned in the creek. That his remains haven't turned up isn't surprising - running water can carry even heavy items a long way - and as the search manager has mentioned, the creek banks are difficult to search.It is such a bizarre story. I come here often looking for any kind of update. Where did he go?? He really did simply disappear.
I have been reading many missing college student cases. This may be the most baffling one. That "oh sh--" and then nothing . . . How incredibly heart-wrenching for the father.
In two weeks it will be five years. Something could still be found.
The crazy thing is he most likely succumbed to the elements from that night. A more thorough search with lots of people would likely find him. He just can't be that far away from where his car became stuck.
A cry of "oh sh--!" seems to me more consistent with Brandon seeing someone with bad intentions or realizing he was about to meet foul play.
