One is saying they walked around the other is saying they drove around all night because there was nothing to do
4. The Sherrif Nathan knows more than what he has revealed. He has knowingly obstructed justice. The deputy also no longer serving and protecting that community also knows something. They were corrupt. The fact that the sheriff had a prior run-in with the victim and subsequently abused his power on Thomas and got called out for it; raises the possibility of a revenge crime. What bothers me was the Sherrif's statement that Tom was queer. Which reveals that a hate crime had been committed and that there was more than one person involved. The sheriff and his team on purpose spoiled the crime scene and falsified documents. No fingerprints, tire tracks, or DNA were preserved. They even missed the 9mm casing. Instead, their story of a runaway became their excuse and science that broke basic protocol wiping away crucial evidence. They lied and they discredited others who had the truth. Looks identical to today's government in power. Was it possible somebody else who wanted it to look like a suicide searched the website? Thomas was most probably killed where he was found and the shell casing was picked up by the shooter who then drove his vehicle to the place where it was dropped off. It was never checked for fingerprints because there should not have been any. Was the casing forensically checked? The sheriff recovered the vehicle from the family for suspicious reasons to make sure no fingerprints were left behind. He probably first has been beaten for being queer and then shot. Someone will be arrested for the murder. Kudus for his mother who continues to seek justice. She will find it.
Sheriff is covering something up!
👁️ 👅👁️
Goes to show when it’s police killing white people it gets hidden and no one every hears about the case ! Y’all so asleep !
It’s obvious Sheriff Lewis killed him, probably saw Tom after he dropped his friends off and decided to hassle him and ended up killing the kid and covered it up.
The Sheriff is bad ass looking puts Chuck Norris to shame
Sheesh so fine 😍😍 what's her name 2:02
Wondering if there are any bodies of water he could have accidentally driven off the road into??
Maybe Thomas found out he had a sister…..
What's the deal with the cop saying the public doesn't have to know???? Even his mom doesn't seem to be getting info. A cop cover? I don't get that remark at all.
Do you know how long it took me to figure out this was American????? Canadian, Texas? WTF
I'm not tooting my own horn, but I found that with intelligence comes boredom, then boredom usually but not all the time becomes depression
The sheriff is hot 🥵 😍
there's not one person in this county that doesnt think the sheriff did it
Canadian Texas deserves a better than this sheriff, don’t say he's still active, this case no doubt wldv bn solved in no time in the big cities, something terribly wrong, need an outside source to come in and reinvestigate. Prayers go out to Brown family 🙏
The case not open in public? ??? Who’s does?
as sad as it is, I believe its its likely a suicide, he may have been onto the fact people were already looking for him or had seen the helicopter and that would explain why he went deeper into the woods, he was also only 18 and may of thought(wrongly) it would be easier on his parents and friends to not know what happened to him that could also explain the distance he traveled. if he shot himself as some people seem to think an unscrupulous character may have wandered upon him first and seen it as opportunity for a free gun and that would explain it not being with him.
The sheriff and his office are… a little sketch
No, not every suicidal person wants found. That’s one reason I haven’t.
I know his mom so well and I’m just nine years old and I live in Canadian Texas and I go to Baker elementary and Penny meek it or technology teacherAnd she is a very very nice person so if you ever come to the small town full of wonderful people and see her give her the love and joy she’s been through a lot lately thank you
"with Chris Hansen" picture at the end 😂😂
I wish LE would take the concerns of family members of missing people seriously. I really, do. No one knows a missing person better than their families.
Plot twist: Thomas plans his own disappearance to further his acting career and pitch a movie to Hollywood
The Sheriff killed Tom. He even looks gay. He even asked for the password on Toms cell phone where it wasn't even discovered yet. Thats way too suspicious…even lied saying "I never said it was a suicide"
Why is this case not public record? Something sounds off on that alone. He was definitely abducted/ murdered by someone he knows. So sad. Jealousy is an evil bitch.
Nathan Lewis did it.
It could be business related. If dad owns a helicopter business
This is a case where the Sheriff seems NOT wanting to solve the case. Call the FBI if these so-called authorities are incompetent or worse guilty.
“Everyone in this Texas town…”
Continues to be called Canadian, the most un-Texas name 🤦🏽😆
His body was found nearby the water treatment plant. Something is off with this case, did he got lured into something bad?
It's always a small nice town
UPDATED INFORMATION ON CASE:
Brown's remains have been found and the sheriff was reprimanded for tampering with government records, in other news updates on the case… it showed that he had also manufactured a supplement for a missing person a year and a half after Brown went missing.
The only reason he did file a supplement of a missing person was that they had to turn in everything to the attorney general. One of the other workers there had 26 supplement pages or documents meanwhile Lewis only had TWO. Over 1 year he only made two pages.
This is a stretch BUT what if Thomas and the sheriff had a secret sexual relationship. The relationship turned sour and out of fear of the sheriff getting caught in gay relationship with Thomas he kills him and stages everything…. This Is just a theory but the sheriff to me seems so fucking guilty.
Odd that his mom made such a point of referring to him in present tense. When a person refers to the victim in the past tense, it is often seen as an indication they are guilty. That's pretty common knowledge. It makes me wonder..
High school class president? He looks 40.
"At this point I know more bout the Las Vegas shooter than I do bout my own son… shocking pause & his disappearance." Idk why but that got me thought it was funny & yea I know it's not a laughing matter but the way she said it
Nah James Marriott just uploaded he’s not missing
The chick did it. Absolutely. Or she knows who did. She’s guilty as shit.
“A moment of silence” ‼️🤦🏼♀️
If schools would use that “moment” for praying, there might be less horror such as this!! Hopefully most used that “moment” to pray.
I was really wondering why they were wearing cowboy hats in Canada 🤦♂️
You can bet the murderer was some rich local Mormon's kid, so the rich Mormon elite are being protected. It happens quite a lot.
