Found Deceased TX - Thomas Brown, 18, Hemphill County, 23 Nov 2016

I'd be curious to know that distance is as well. For funsies, I tried finding the Longhollow Road on Google maps and could never find it. I do have a guess which road it is, but cannot confirm yet.

I am still not convinced he was out there the entire time but who knows.

RBBM for focus

Interesting. Maybe he mixed it up with Long Hollow RD in Love County, OK? He spent quite a bit of time searching areas along the road in the Molly Miller and Colt Haynes case.

“LOVE COUNTY, Okla. -- New leads in the disappearance of Molly Miller and Colt Haynes, who've been missing for well over a year, led investigators on Sunday to an area off of Pike Road, near Long Hollow Road in Love County.

Lead Civil Investigator Phillip Klein, Equisearch, units from KIC Texas, and an OKlahoma State Bureau of Investigation representative combed the area from 9 a.m. until sundown.

‘We're following up on some credible tips that we have learned regarding the case,’ said Klein.”

Oh I bet so! I thought I had narrowed it down to one of the County Roads but wasn’t sure. I bet he misspoke.

There will be a memorial service for Thomas on Feb 2.

806mom - do we have a map? where the gas station was with video, where he had originally parked/dropped off friends, where the truck was found? The only way to get to Lake Marvin Road from the school area is thru the middle of town. I can't believe there were no other videos available - security, cctv, etc. i've been following this since it started and although i'm in texas, i'm farther south. i really really want to know what happened to Tom and i do not believe it was a random stranger driving thru town the night before thanksgiving. anyway, a map would be good - i just don't know how to do it well enough.

Tom’s story really touched me. I have often checked for updates. As time went on, I was beginning to fear he would never be found. My heart goes out to his loved ones, especially his mother. I hope the perpetrator(s) are brought to justice and his family finds peace.

I think there is a map on this thread. I’m in College Station with my son this weekend and won’t be on my main computer til Sunday to see what I have in my notes. But I do recall there being a map at one time.

I’m pretty sure there is a map upthread, too. I will look for it.

I also found this map on the podcast series, CASEFILE’s website. I will try to replicate it in Google Maps.

I just spent most of the day re-reading this thread and noticed the same thing. Made my heart hurt.

806Mom - you're down here in my town this weekend! I'm actually in Bryan, but about the same.

It doesn’t appear that we have a map that shows multiple locations of interest here on the thread. I will try to make a Google Maps version of the map from the CASEFILES website when I have a moment.

thanks IMHO! i think there was a map way back that Sunny added but we didn't keep it and add pins as things were found.

Excuse me if I missed it, but what did the autopsy show? What is the cause of Tom’s death?

It hasn't been reported on yet (that I am aware of). Klein said in one of his recent interviews (linked by me, earlier) that he was certain it would be murder but didn't reveal what actually happened.

Thank you! That is what I was thinking but then started thinking about the talk of a shell casing in the car...

Gas station was Fronk Oil. This is on the main street that runs through town from one end to the other--2nd Street, which is also Hwy. 60: Google Maps
