I use to have a neighbor behind my house and she had a two story house. Well she called me one day swearing that there were people with guns crawling on my roof. She said every time she 👀 out her windows they would all drop down and belly crawl to hide from her.
It didn’t matter how many times I told her nobody was on my roof. She made me start doubting myself even though I new better lol I had to walk outside with her on the phone and tell her to lay off whatever it was she was doing because nobody was on my roof. She ended up telling me later that she had been smoking crystal meth. That is pure poison I’ll never understand why people like that stuff. Now anytime I hear a story where they are calling people and not making sense and seeing people after them oh and they keep hanging up and calling back my mind goes straight to this. Before my experience with her I would think it was some huge mystery. Now I don’t and I feel so sorry for their families.

Thank you for always being witty yet respectful towards the victims at the same time.

Dear Dr Grande, at the end of a challenging week and and a particularly brutal day, the joy of your channel is beyond words. Real intellectual sustenance to sooth my tortured intellect and a superbly excellent dry sense of humor to sooth my frazzled nerves. I'm certain that your reliably brilliant analysis to which you add the correct portion of humor is a balsam to most of your followers. Many thanks with profound gratitude.

What always bugged me about this case is his family saying they had begged to police to obtain search warrants to search the area on the property next to the rode share his truck was stopped. The land owner had refused to allow anyone on his land after the first days. Then to hear the bones were there for all these years later, makes you ponder if he hadn’t been just a few feet from where they were allowed to search.

People on meth are sometimes extremely paranoid and any small thing makes them think someone is 'after' them. You can't reason with them when they're like that. It's too bad Brandon didn't go toward his brother when he saw him.

Defiantly one of the mysterious disappearances that happened. While remains have been found, there’s no official confirmation at the moment that they’re Brandon’s, though with all likelihood, it seems the remains are Brandon’s which only begs the question of what exactly happened to him from the time of the phone call and to when the remains were found. Thank you for the video Dr. Grande, your analysis is always appreciated. Take care!

I've listened to that 911 call so many times! This is one of the most memorable missing persons cases for me, up there with Maura Murray, the "Springfield Three", and Brianna Maitland.

This is such a heartbreaking case and unfortunately, completely avoidable.

On another note, my Patreon subscription is very much worth it. There are many interesting videos in there, I certainly recommend. 🙌🏼

Thank you for covering this case, Dr. Grande.❤

Just a reminder, I'm not diagnosing anybody in this video; only speculating about what could be happening when a succession of incoherent telephone calls happens like this.

I started following Brandon’s case right when he went missing. I just gave birth to my youngest child. I remember keep thinking that he was going to be found soon and I can’t believe it been 10 years.

I really enjoy your insight into all these cases Dr. Grande. I know you're not diagnosing them but you offer a lot of clarity. Absolutely enjoy your channel! 🙂

I’m curious to know how long he was up. When I messed with that stuff wayyyy back in the 00s in my 20s, I’d stay up for 3 days and thought I saw ninjas in the trees.

Those of us who watch a large volume of true crime are probably familiar with this trope - young male driving alone at night stops his vehicle in a weird place, makes some semi-coherent phone calls, and disappears. A history of substance use/misuse is often involved. I don't have any grand pronouncements about this, just noting there's about enough of this type of incident that it sounds like a pattern.

I've worked with meth-addicts for nearly three decades (EMS) and sadly, this is pretty much a typical day in their lives.

So tragic. Those poor children. Thanks again for your analysis. Can you analyze Dylan Mulvaney and the feud with the Daily Wire cast? I can’t get enough of your perspective and this conflict contains many issues. Can’t wait for your next video (no matter what it is)

Another strange disappearance and death. I didn’t realize his remains found until just now. 😢

[glow]

A story of my brother, he kept telling me someone is after him trying to kill him. I told him he's delusional and making up stories. Turns out I was right. He was taking Ecstacy which i never knew. Ones he stopped he was himself again.

Great video. Thank you for all the the great content and research you do . Thank you Dr Grande. Brilliant analysis and informative topic

It was confirmed to be Brandon long ago. As of like six months ago, the family had not been informed of the CoD. It was continuing to be investigated, which is...odd. The remains were located on private property. From the explanation, it appears that it was owned by a foreign individual or a corporate entity. In either case, permission could not attained to search the property, and there was not reason to specifically believe that he was on the property for the purposes of obtaining a warrant. Once ownership was determined and permission was received, it was searched. It had never been previously searched, nor had that claim been made.

Thank you for covering this. His disappearance and subsequent death is rather baffling. Hopefully he’s resting in peace. 🙏✝️🕊
