Hilton offers a digital key in most locations using the honors app on your cell phone. If he had activated that feature there'd be no need to carry the physical room key.

The Caldwell county sheriff's department notified the Clinton county sheriff's department of the abandoned vehicle. I didn't see any reports that said the Caldwell county sheriff's office did anything or even was the one that discovered the vehicle. They merely reported it on to the Clinton...

that is a possibility. However anything he had in the back of the truck would have been seen in the video cameras that captured him on the way to the parking lot.

it's possible to go into all kinds of speculation about what happened. Because of the very short timeline between their disappearance and the truck being taken to the parking area my personal suspicion is some of this was planned out in advance. All the suspect has admitted to is moving the...

authorities have searched multiple locations. At least one of the locations they searched was an open area which did not require a search warrant. At least one of the search locations was in Caldwell county. Source: KTTN

I wondered about that too. However that would mean that if it was the braymer suspect involved he had to hold them at gunpoint for a distance of 30 miles. Then get them into another vehicle and continue to hold them at gunpoint 30 miles back to the property. other than a reference to it on...

If the two brothers did not drive the truck to the parking area themselves then at least two people had to be involved in their disappearance as whoever drove the truck there had to be picked up and taken back to wherever they were from.

From a story on KSHB: "Police have to say what role the Braymer farm plays in the expanding investigation, but investigators could be seen setting up a sifting station Wednesday next to a smoldering debris pile on the property."

This map shows the Verizon cell towers that are currently active according to FCC filings. I previously posted this map in thread #2. It appears that Brandon's phone was detected by at least 3 towers based on range, but terrain could have cut that back to 2 or just 1 in some places. Verizon...

No, I'm not saying the truck was found by a lighted gate. Looking at google images there is a lighted gate across the highway from where the truck was found if we go by the location attributed to TexSAR. It would seem to me a lighted anything would be a natural spot for a reference if you wanted...

It was mentioned in the blog talk interview posted in the media thread. There was also a press release March 3 which gave more details, but I don't see where the release was run by MSM.

That's interesting. So, according to that location Brandon's truck was across the road from a lighted gate area. My concern is that supposedly official press releases and mainstream media reports have contained some rather far ranging locations for the truck. MSM just a few weeks ago said...

The first set showing the truck just south of the bridge at the Colorado River was from the Observer. The other set came from the "blog". The gps information appears to be part of a missing poster, but it just might be a header and/or may not be a part of an official poster.

I would think the Observer is mainstream media as it is a local newspaper publication in that area. I'm hoping the moderators allow some other sites as for now about the only information from approved sources is that Brandon is missing (can't use the coordinates even). That is not a...

Typical walking speed for a human is about 3 mph. That's in good conditions. We know that there was no moonlight to speak of that night. It may have still been cloudy at that point as it had rained a little earlier. The terrain is mixed. There are fences, brush and in some places trees. If we...
