I've followed this case from the beginning. I've listened to the 911 call many times, read every post here on WS, read all the articles I could find, watched videos and podcasts. I've lurked but decided to join in. Everything is my opinion only. I am not an insider and know no one involved in the case. I've just done a lot of research. I have some observations to make. I've also followed HFBL and J4BL.
1. I haven't seen a big enough discrepancy in the time line to consider anything suspicious. Time lines are put together by different people and agencies. Not everyone's clocks are the same. When traumatic events happen, everyone who witnessed will have a different story, description and time line (psychology 101).
2. The 911 call. A lot of you question if this is Brandon. With everyone who has heard that 911 call, someone would have already said "hey that's not Brandon's voice". I'm sure everyone who knows him has listened to that 911 call. I don't think anyone could have faked that call pretending to be Brandon. A lot of you don't believe he was ever in the truck or on that road side, but the 911 call clearly states he was. He also brings up "some guys" in that call. If family were involved he would not call them "some guys". He clearly puts himself on that road side. There's been a lot of discussion about the gas. He also clearly says he ran out of gas. It's also pretty clear that he is running from someone. The 911 call was also taken from a nursing home at the nurses station. This would also pick up any noises from the nursing home making it hard to tell what noises or whispers were from the nursing home or from where Brandon was. I don't think there are 2 voices on the call. I think it's just him. When they ask if he needs an ambulance he starts to say "yeah" but stops and says he needs the cops. This is my opinion of what I hear.
3. Family/including LL-I am not buying that they are involved. I see no motives. There's no money gained, no love triangle that has ever been proved, and no reason for everyone in his family to hide a crime. His family have actively searched as much as they could and as the law would allow. I truly believe they are victims who have been through the worst thing a family could go through. Who knows how anyone would react in this situation. Family members are not very active on social media and this bothers a lot of people. But I think it's due to so much negativity towards the family. To those of you who have followed this case have likely read J4BL. It was a lot like a witch hunt over there. It did get better when it changed administration but not much. I would like to see them speak out more, but I understand why they don't. LL has been the most vocal and I must say I have been impressed with her strength and determination from day 1. I think she jumped right in, tried to find him in multiple ways even though she was up against a lot of red tape and obstacles. Some of pointed out that she's had charges for fraud. The only thing I have say is that it was wrong, she's paying for that mistake and everyone has skeletons. If we put anyone's life under a microscope we could find crimes, lies and mistakes to make them out to be Charles Manson, but the fact is, no one is perfect.
I don't know much about KL or his girlfriend, but family have described that he and Brandon had a great relationship.
4. The searches- LL's helicopter searches were quick. Some have questioned this. I think it was very smart of her. She understood that if he were out on that land he would not have much of a chance at survival if not found quickly. No one else appeared to be searching. LE does do some searches but not a lot of information was given about those searches. I saw a grid of the searches I think on the local observer paper, but there is a lot of land that wasn't searched. BLs father said that he was threatened with arrest if he tried to search the land himself. I really feel sorry for the family concerning what appears to be a block by LE. I would like to see TexasEquaSearch involved, but I read somewhere that LE had to make the contact and they would not. It also appears land owners in that area have not agreed to searches. This is concerning. I couldn't imagine my wife or child missing and people not letting me search. I think I would take the chance at getting shot and just go search anyway! At least I would feel like I was doing something.
5. My Questions to you- I see a lot of frustration about the search of the home in San Angelo. Do we know for a fact that LE did not search the home? (LE hasn't made many statements regarding the case).
Do we know for sure anything besides speculation concerning KL's lie detector test? Is there a link to this that can show for sure a pass or fail?
Has the mother of his first child ever made a statement? I haven't seen anything myself.
Once the case is cold, can a freedom of public information be requested to get some reports from LE?
Can anyone give specifics about what on the time line has changed so much that it causes you concern?
6. My opinion and observations- IMOO the 911 call is the best evidence. Everything I've seen points to the fact that BL was out on that HWY and ran out of gas. He called KL and asked him to bring gas. Before KL arrives, several phone calls to 911 come in, one being Brandon's. Brandon is scared, running and fighting for his life. I believe because of the content I've heard on 911 call that whoever he was running from where strangers to him "some guys".
I don't think LE were involved, but feel they were not suited to investigate this kind of situation. Brontes a small town with small town officers. I'm not knocking them, I'm from a small town too.
I believe whoever was chasing him did him harm. It's a hunch that it was locals, but I think it was. I think his body is near the area. I think LE should get TexasEquaSearch involved so we would know for sure. They are the best out there.
Sorry for the long post.. I have more but this was the brunt of what I wanted to say.
