TARGET(S) LOCATED While Searching for Former Mayor Ralph Brown (Day 5) Missing Cold Case Documentary

Cold case documentary of former mayor Ralph Brown, missing from Cornelius, Oregon, since May 16, suffers from dementia and has not had his memory or heart medication since he left his home.

Over 100 days have passed now since 76-year-old Ralph Brown went missing!

Today we follow up on locations we spotted from our plane ride on our Day 4 search to see what we are missing and if we can find Ralph.

His daughter, Laurie Saunders, said during a news conference that she spoke with her father the night he went missing shortly after 9pm and that he wasn’t sure exactly where he was.

He told her he was “literally in the bushes,” and that he might be near a golf course, but couldn’t give her more specific details. He also asked if people were out looking for him.

She told him to wait for a call from his son, who was going to go out and find him, but Brown didn’t answer the phone after that. And nobody has been able to find him, even though hundreds of people out there helping with the search.

This series documents Adventures With Purpose's multi-day search for Ralph.

Brown is 76 years old, about 5-foot-10, with white hair and blue eyes. He's also missing the tip of his index finger.

His car is a dark blue, 2014 Nissan Sentra with Oregon plates.

Anyone who sees him or his car is asked to call the Washington County Sheriff’s Office at 503-629-0111

There have been a few sightings reported, but none were substantiated, said Daryle Brown, Ralph Brown’s son.

Daryle said his parents were in their home on May 16 when Brown stood up and said he was going to his “other house.”

Ralph has early-onset Alzheimer’s symptoms, which leads to confusion. He no longer has a driver’s license and has not driven a car in more than a year, Daryle said.

He drove away from the home in the 600 block of South 12th Avenue in Cornelius, Oregon.

There have been no location pings on his phone after 10:25pm that evening, and no communication from Brown in the time since he’s been missing.

There have also been no charges to his credit card.

More than 200 volunteers are still helping in the search, including former students, friends, and even strangers.

Hug the ones you love for you never know when it might be the last time you see them.

We are humbled by the opportunity all of you have given us to help in the search for answers as to what happened to Ralph.

Your persistence has paid off. You never gave up on him. Proud of the team. Good job👏

As I watch this, I reflect---THESE are the people who should be revered, thanked and supported. The impact this work has on the lives of grieving families is simply unparalleled. Would that people like this were glorified, instead of someone who puts a ball through a net, or appears on the big screen. If our lives are measured by the impact that we have on our fellow man, then this work, these men and women, are to be humbly and eternally treasured. May God, in His mercy and grace bring unto you and yours tenfold blessings for that which you do. You, Sirs, are simply a gift beyond measure

I live in the area Ralph lives in and we're all keeping our eyes out and looking for him. Thank you AWP!! I'm praying Ralph is found and his family gets answers and closure. ❤🙏

Ralph was my school counsoler at JW Poynter Jr high in the 70's. He is a very kind man and he needs to be found, this is heart breaking

[kayerains]

A detective friend has said that many missing people are found by hunters in the fall...hopefully Ralph will be one of them. Your woman in the pink Chevy was found in a fairly small clump of brush, near a highway, so I hope you can do an aerial search for Ralph again when the leaves have fallen, and more ground is visible. Thank you, guys, again. So many have forgotten about Ralph. This keeps him in the public's consciousness in case someone notices something.

I am new to your channel and I am completely fascinated and humbled by what you're doing. I am a freelance writer and I also dabble in forensics because I graduated from college as a forensic nurse. I love, love, love whoever composes your descriptions. Please give them a hug from me.

[DramaMustRemainOnTheStage]

Ralph looks like a kind man. Bless him and his family.

[heatherbissonette]

As someone from the community that Brown is from. We really appreciate the work you are doing. I live in a town that he had major impact on. Never met him but I know what he means to the people around me ❤

[madelinesheridan]

Thanks so much! Ralphs case is so upsetting.

[chikitaloca]

I will literally put my 6mo. Old to sleep and watch your videos on my TV. Not alot of people will do what you do and I am so happy to see there are still good people in the world. Youre amazing and may God bless you and your crew. You guys are absolutely amazing. Coming from a parent who lost a child, being able to have closure is something that means the world.

17:00 what an awesome officer/sheriff. People are so quick to hate them for the smallest things or remarks, but I felt it was nice to see him on the water, checking on you guys, offering you gas, and generally caring for everything you're doing. You mentioned that it seemed odd that he didn't know Ralph was still missing, but I think that's easy to say. Police deal with many cases of all kinds and many false cases on top of it. They also have their normal lives on top of all of that too. I think he does want Ralph found, but he just has many other cases on his mind, especially ones that seem like they are closer to being solved. This may sound bad too, but a case where someone was or is harming others too I expect would be in their mind most, while cases like Ralph's may get set aside a tiny bit more. He mentioned finding the car being the most important part because it's exactly that at this point, there's nothing really to work with anymore other than just searching every possibility with hopes that he's found. If they had the car's location, the case would be very high priority and have much more attention. Just wanted to say all that because cops do great work, but are hated more now than ever, sadly.

I love the music in the background...its beautiful...i hope you find Mr Brown soon..my heart goes out to his family~~~

[binxcirce]

I hope he gets found. I can't imagine the devastation & feelings his family has. It's heart breaking to see so many go missing & not found. You guys are making a difference in the world & people's lives.

[debbiewatts]

The reality of what you are doing is pretty incredible.
Whether it’s cleaning the environment or finding a missing person there is no time wasted . You can tell the family and law enforcement that they can cross off certain locations, which in my opinion is making the search area that much smaller .
You guys are so thorough and use such good technology it’s incredible.
I wonder if you could find out where Ralph’s phone pinged prior to the last ping . If foul play was involved the perpetrator may have taken his phone from the location and used it later to ring someone to pick him / them up .
It really is amazing what you and your team do .

Thank you for continuing to search. Ralph hasn’t left my mind much.

[reneetibbetts]

Jared, your guys hearts and determination does not waiver. I Pray you get resolution for this family and yourselves. YOU GUYS ROCK👍

[GinaRSA]

Well done team, for sticking with it and keeping up the search.
I was thinking about Natalie and how her car had been in bushes next to a busy road for so long, unnoticed. It could be the same situation here as it looks really dense in some places.
I hope he is found soon.

[kayerains]

Thank you for continuing to search for Ralph Brown. Obviously, Ralph has to be somewhere, but as you know, he and/or his car could be hidden in even a small clump of bushes. We are hoping with fall and winter coming, the search will be rewarded. It is so frustrating to know he is nearby, though. Thank you, again.
