Throw it out there. We all have our theories, but anything is possible.

Anything is possible ...... But OJ still did it with his leather glove ....

Not sure how far I want to go out there on a limb

You've got my curiosity twitching! Why are you thinking medical field?

Sorry Vedder I provoked that ... Was curious if it was confirmed BL had been seeing someone.

Do recall in the initial reports BL's Dad thought he may have had a woman pick him up. Going to go back and find the MSM article.

Does anyone remember LL talking in one of the online programs? It seems like she said they wern't aware of the warrant until just recently (before BL disappearded), and they were waving money to post the bond when he turned himself in.......maybe like they learned about a warrant? Is that possible?

Supposedly the story for the warrant is that they found out about it when they went to register the truck into his name. Two problems with that:
1) Texas doesn't run your license to transfer a title. If they did, and a warrant had popped up in one of the County offices, he would have been detained on the spot.
2) As Sutton had posted previously a few days ago, he had multiple Failure to Appears on that charge. He knew. And as I have said previously, people who live that lifestyle are normally very well aware of their illegal activities. He knew that charge was out there. Not that it changes the fact that he's missing. He deserves to be found.

On pages 2 and 3 of this thread they list his charges. The only thing I see from 2011 says he was sentenced for a previous charge from either 08 or 05. I would assume it was most likely for the 08 offense but that's moo.

 

[interestedincases]

This one drives me crazy. I honestly don't know which way my mind goes. The thing that stands out to me the most is there must have been something shady going on within the family for everyone NOT to come together to get facts straight and a proper timeline. Something is being covered up, I'm just not sure what. Personally, I don't think it has to do with BL disappearance, BUT, I do think he may have been into some illegal things again himself and therefor the family is afraid to"tarnish" a memory of him or even get themselves in trouble because they were involved too.

The 911 call got me hooked and I read every WS thread after that. I just happened to check today and saw there was some activity again which I'm happy to see. One thing that popped out that I don't remember reading (which has been awhile) was L posting on a garage sale sight??? Interesting

That 911 call though.......sigh.......
I don't think he disappeared on his own

• IF his voice could be confirmed, I do believe it is him on the 911 call and I don’t feel like it was drug induced.
• I don’t think he was alone on that call either..I too think others were there.
• But do I remember reading it’s possible BL had someone else in the truck with him??? I cannot for the life of me remember where I read that or if I picked it up because he said “we” in the tape? (it’s been awhile since I initially listened/read everything)
• I remember when I initially read wondering if BL and KL’s girlfriend had something going on. I thought it was weird BL would be calling her and not his brother??? (again, can’t remember why that stands out in my mind but it does)
• I also remember thinking it strange KL was going to check up on LL. The timing of this was weird. Or maybe it was the gas can pick up timing that was weird.
• The truck being parked IN the road was always strange to me. Even if he ran out of gas, knowing it was on a dark highway AND in the road, you think he would have tried to push it over to the shoulder. Not sure what kind of elevation he was on and if it was possible or not, but most times when you run out of gas, you can coast far enough to get it onto the shoulder.
• To me it’s more like he was running from someone and didn’t realize the gas was low, ran out, jumped out and left it parked in the street and ran into the brush to hide as fast as he could. If he had stopped to help someone and ran into shady people, he would have been fully on the shoulder.
• I do think perhaps he was back into a bad lifestyle. It’s my gut feeling that he was and his family knew this and were trying to protect him and that’s why they won’t come clean on exactly what went down that night. Maybe he did have a fight with L over drugs….maybe he owed someone money. Maybe he planned to meet up with them and they chased him. But even if that is the case, he still deserves to be found and his children and L deserve to have closure. His background doesn’t change how I feel about the case, it is what it is. Maybe it was a drug deal gone bad BUT, he called 911 for help, he should have gotten it. That L didn’t find out about the call until after she received the phone records is crazy! Geez, if I have to call 911 and disappear I HOPE to heavens someone just doesn’t ignore it as “a crazy person” and gives it more investigation.

I just really wish the family would come out with the true facts about what happened. If they are all innocent in BL’s disappearance, even if it’s embarrassing or hurtful to the family, if they are going to continue to ask the public’s help and continue to try to find him, they need to be truthful. There are so many concerned and caring people wanting to help give the family and children closure but it takes them being truthful too. Maybe they have bad people who threatened them that if they talk, they will go down too. Sigh…..I know if was my spouse who went missing, I would throw it all out there, good and bad. It’s what happens when it hits the public. But not knowing where my spouse might be would kill me even more than the embarrassment of what really went down.

I don’t really have anything to add other than ramblings J

You say it well interestedincases. I think that is how most of us feel. Interesting how on the 911 call he says "some guys were chasing me" then unintelligible garble. I always assumed they were chasing him from his truck, but now I thinjk they may have been chasing him from San Angelo/Walmart! JMO

You mean you think they're chasing him around the area of the Walmart? Or the chase started from the Walmart, and headed towards Bronte? Just clarifying. I hadn't thought about it originating at the Walmart. Interesting line of thinking. I like this idea.

[nannymo]

I am thinking the chase could have started at Walmart. That would answer the question why he didn't stop for gas. It would also answer the timeline problem I have had from the beginning. I have always felt he went somewhere else after the fight before he headed out of town. From his house to Bronte should only be around 20-30 minutes, yet is was 45 or more I think.

That would really make a lot of sense.

I remember reading that he was at Walmart first butttt...I thought that had been determined it didn't happen??? But again, so many back and forths on the whole timeline. I too thought he had met up with someone there.

Also, that his last ping was miles away. That also throws me off. I really feel like he was harmed by the truck, maybe not killed, just beaten, and they took him, phone and all, and took him somewhere else to "dispose" of him.

He was definitely seen at Walmart on surveillance cameras. There was some type of incident there, but it's never been revealed what exactly. I wish we knew. Law enforcement has never said what happened.

Do you have link where msm talks about him being seen at Walmart, because I also thought that had been discounted as rumor in the beginning. TYIA

Often wondered about this as that Wally World has cameras in the parking lot if an incident occurred or not :fence: they would be able to see from the surveillance cameras BL or his truck. Going to dig back I do recall a mention that LE knows the circumstances at Wally World need to find it. :thinking:

 

[SavetheQueen]

I don't know where it's listed on MSM. It's been forever since it was posted.

[goldiegirl]

I would also be interested in reading about the cameras. I sure haven't seen that anywhere. Been wondering about the WM thing but thought it had been dismissed as rumor as well.

 

[interestedincases]

I was looking around some more on this case while at lunch and ran across this website. I'm not sure that it gives any additional information that I haven't seen but...for anyone new, it might give an overview.

http://www.missingbrandonlawson.com/

There are a few things I read through all the WS threads that stick out to me:

1) I thought his truck was sticking out in the road? If so, why did the trooper just lock it up and leave it to be towed in the AM? Wouldn't it have been a traffic hazzard? So either the truck WAS fully on the shoulder and out of the way or something is weird here? Without the keys they couldn't have pushed it back off the road?? The website above didn't mention it being out in the roadway so maybe I'm wrong? That's one flag that always stood out to me was that he was running from something and just jumped out of the truck and ran directly into the woods?

2) And the Walmart story. I read it, then thought I read it didn't happen or couldn't be confirmed. I think something started there and then led to the chase where he ran out of gas. I don't see Walmart listed on this website either.

Here is what I remember.......

There were 2-911 calls. One was BL's call asking for help....The other was a trucker calling about a stranded vehicle.

I think the 2 calls may have occurred in close proximity to each other BEFORE the deputy and KL arrived.

When the deputy and KL arrived, they saw the truck was partially out in the highway and a safety hazard. The truck was not locked so they put it in gear and pushed it onto the shoulder.
It was towed the next morning.

I think you may be correct about the Walmart incident. That is the way I remember reading about it....Oh! it happened, it didn't happen and then it can't be confirmed it happened, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. I think it is a very strong possibility it did happen. It fits the timeline better for sure..JMO

Maybe it happened close to the Walmart but out of camera sight?

But who would have verified this or known this if not reported by KL or LL? How did the Walmart rumor get started?
