It looks like a cut on his right arm to me

[ToniHunterOne]

You know a lot of the comments about these stops are derisive. I just bet that both of the troopers that stopped him were told to. They were nanchalantly keeping tabs on him. Making excuses for why they got pulled over but keeping tabs.

[HawkinsWarriors]

I have never heard of anyone getting pulled over for following a semi too close. Man, how close was he? That's risky. I get too nervous driving by semis.

[moneytttt]

How he kill four people without them waking up or when the other two came back home how did they not see him our check to see if there friends were okay its all crazy

[evdallas]

Where's the guys bodycam mounted if all you see is the ground?

[blustarr]

So my question is where does the father live? Pennsylvania is where I thought his parents lived and he was going there. Why is his father with him?

[speaklifegardenhomesteadpe]

WHAT COUNTY was the other incident in, no one's including location other than the state, include the location incase people have tips along their travels, maybe they saw him or have him on camera or vehicle surveillance, throwing stuff away at a gas station enroute!

[damienhollester]

Something is wrong with this case. Cops so far seem to have little to no evidence and base their arrest on his car which matches one of 200 plus cars in the area, one which was seen passing by the murder house. They claim that his phone pinged in the area but cell towers ping phones within a three-mile radius around the tower which includes all of Moscow. There is also an issue with two other like crimes that occurred in the area one year apart. One in Salem, OR (2 savagely stabbed to death in their sleep but an unexpected visitor chased the intruder from the residence), another in Washougal, WA. (one savagely stabbed to death as she slept) all within a short drive of Idaho, the next state. Like this crime, all occurred on or within a day of the 13th and all on a weekend.

He looks like a Michael myer's mask without the white paint.

[MilyMoon]

It could be the way his hand is sitting but it looks like his right middle knuckle is cut/hurt? Idk the video isn’t perfect. Glad they caught him though

[sherrysigman]

Has his father been cleared of being involved too??? All I can say is...if in fact Bryan is guilty...save the three meals and a cot...if an animal kills four people we immediately deal with that by putting the animal to sleep...if he did this...he doesn't deserve to breath another day...he has changed the lives of four families forever...you can tell by looking in his eyes that he's not all right upstairs...what a shame...

[nikeprojock]

dang how close was they following the semi lol i never heard of anyone being pulled over for that, they need to pull people over in my area ppl wanna get all on ur bumper like please i can only go as fast as the people in front of me

[justicemichael]

He thought he was getting away from the place but police was checking on him and making sure where he was going. His plate left dirty not to be visible.

[kimberlymacever]

See that mark on his right arm? Someone injured him.

[GrungeStoryTellers]

I just asked a Indiana state trouper and he said no way was this a regular ISHP stop. They don't go on the passenger side unless there's two of them for so many reasons they go in the driver side they ask for driver's license and registration and then they go back to the car after saying stay right here be right back they check it and then they go back and tell them why they stop them in a very formal manner they don't say is this your car where you're going it may even be unconstitutional for them to ask those kind of questions especially just for supposedly tailgating.
This was the feds.
Also note the huge shiny SUV
I kind of think they're messing with him and trying to see how he would react because the second stop was now on the same day even so that cop told him we don't have SUVs maybe they were hoping he would get nervous and say something to his dad and maybe turn himself in God who knows but this was not Idaho State Police Troopers just coincidentally stopping him. No way.
Im sure it will all come out later.

[robertuchman]

He probably had a gun near his left hand

[FreeSpear]

I'm not the only one seeing the thin metal rectangular clip or case or scabbard, maybe stun gun??? Hiding in between driver's legs? I dunno it looks pretty thin for a clip? Something IS there though. I just hope I'm not the only one paying attention here lmao?!
