As always, Bryan, you do a phenomenal job of reporting on these poor missing people and what their families are going through. I know I can rely on you for the facts and a heartfelt approach to these stories. Thank you for the super job and all your hard work! 😊🙏
My heart is heavy that people are not safe by doing what they love. It’s just so so scary. Thank you for bringing awareness to others to help the families get closer to closure. Cases like these make me what to be a hermit. Love your work, hope you are feeling better. God Bless you.
Hey Bryan hope your foot is healing and you're doing well. Thanks for the videos and take care of yourself. Bless the souls of all who were lost in this video.
Ryan Suka is such a sad case! Kudos to his family for never giving up and prayers goes to finding him! I will never believe he got lost on his way home!! Somebody knows what happened and I hope this person or persons has enough conscience to come forward!! We all have to pay the piper in the end , are you ready??Give his family some peace.
Pumping out vids like a champ!!! I like you man, you care about people and are very compassionate about what you do. Have you ever gone out on any of these SAR teams before?
Being a part of an sar team comes with certain terms. When I started getting involved, I was advised to not join a team, but get the training, and do what I'm doing. So that's what I'm doing. I was told if I was part of an sar team I wouldn't be allowed to to searchers on my own and I would have to keep information secret..ib felt I could do more good by doing what I'm doing. In sar investigations they are treated like police investigations, so if I was part of an actual team, I couldn't do what I'm doing. So I was advised to keep doing what I'm doing.
Bryan, thank you again as always for all your work on these missing people. Very sad they ended up a mystery. Hopefully one day can be solved. I agree with you, that the more people, that put out these video's of the lost, the more the word gets out to more people that are unaware, instead of just one person doing 411 video's, of the missing. Your channel is my favorite, for the missing.
It's hard to understand how Marshall could be planning to go to Calgary from Lethbridge, and end up in the Kamloops area. That drive alone is over 600km (400miles). And going on the TransCanada is slow and winding, with lots of elevation changes ie. slower driving than you'd expect. I'd have to wonder if he was lured there, in whatever way. I hope they've checked his digital communications.
Obviously, he got to Calgary as it's on the way. Perhaps picked up some desperado hitchhikers just before Calgary? Burning a vehicle is usually done with the object of deleting all fingerprints. They can solve this with some good police work.
It's clearly foul play and abduction. Burning a vehicle is an attempt to get rid of crime evidence. It would not make sense for him to tell his family he was going a short way to his storage locker. If someone forcing me to drive long distance, I would crash vehicle.
Always be nat, I agree. That's why I put the maps in. It's crazy the distance and where his truck ended up. By my search it was over 13 hours and that would be like you said if it was clear. I left sever links in the description of you'd like to do further reading because I honestly have no idea on this one. Just makes no sense..
It sure sounds to me like there is a serial killer living somewhere in that area. Burned out cars in 2 of the disappearances, all within that triangle, and the victims are all random males. LE does not like to bring up the subject of serial killer because it tends to create public panic and increased pressure on them to find the culprit. Hope they catch whoever it is.
Yeah but only 2 people were found dead. The rest there are no bodies and the ones that were found dead, their vehicle was not burnt. So, not all of these fit the same MO.
@@robmen1402 Since some are missing and only 2 bodies recovered, we don't know if the cause of death was the same for all the victims, but we do know that it appears all were transported somewhere in an unknown vehicle. Luke's car burnt out but no body found anywhere near where the car was found. Ryan was on foot and someone reported to RCMP that he heard someone yelling loudly, "get in the car." His body has never been found in spite of an extensive search, no tracks in the snow. Ben's body has never been found but his horse was found 2 days after he disappeared. Richard and Ryan's bodies were found 80 kilometers away from where their car was found, no cause of death stated. Since in 2 of the disappearances the cars were burned, maybe the killer decided that a 3rd burned out car would be too obvious that these are all murders, probably by the same person. Serial killers do sometimes modify their behaviors. Richard Ramirez used a wide variety of weapons and different murder methods, including handguns, various types of knives, a machete, a tire iron, and a claw hammer.
Well, if they never found Ryan's body, even after the snow melted, anywhere in or around Snow Peak, then that logically leaves, he was taken out of the area. So when his friend heard someone yell, get in the car, that would be a legitimate reason to assume he was taken. How stupid are some of these RCMP? Note to self: Never go into the Canadian wilderness. Marshall, who spends two hours at a storage facility? It sounds to me like he met someone there, either knowingly or unknowingly, maybe he was going to give them a ride somewhere close and they killed him and took his truck. Another great video shining light on these cases just in case someone might know something or remember something.
I think it’s misunderstood what RCMP Stands for. I’m pretty sure it really means Royal Canadian Moron Police…. I’ve heard enough of these cases so far, and as soon as I hear that the Royal Canadian moron police are involved in the investigation, I could be 100% sure that it will not be solved. They had a reliable witness who voluntarily reported that there was an argument in the middle of the night close to the home of the victim, and it was hard said in anger “get in the car.“ We note that the RCMP, the premier idiots of the universe, they did not follow up on this lead. Easily Canada ranks as a top-five stupidest nations in the world, very close to number one. Thank God Australia is out there.
That's possible because you could figure hanging out around a storage eventually someone would show up to victimize. As for RCMP being stupid, well they did what the tyrant Prime Minister told them to in order to abuse fellow citizens.
Thank You so much for doing these video's. You sound like a very nice empathetic person, God Bless You for all you do for these families. I really enjoy listening to you tell these tragic stories.
Bryan, Thank you for another great video ! Getting the information out on these cold cases is so important and may help solve these mysteries. Again thank you for all you do.
The last case has active serial all over it, with someone else's belongings burned along with his things and the truck. Surely the police see that indication. Unfortunately there are more than a couple of those soulless personality types theorized to be operating right in that area, and more in nearby areas. That's why everyone needs to remember that being kind and helpful to those you don't know is all well and fine, but being aware of your surroundings at all times is crucial to survival. A bit of suspicion and caution doesn't mean you're rude. Going solo and conducting isolated activities can set you up as attractive prey. You don't have to ruin your mental outlook and perspective regarding other people to exist in a more vigilant mode either. Carrying a pistol may not be an option for many of you, so consider mace, or even a pocket stun gun if that's a legal option. Those options are pointless without the set state of mind where these possibilities are considered and reconsidered regularly, though. Bad things usually happen quick, and out of nowhere. I only mention these horror scenarios because of the misery we see connected to these types of stories folks. Many more lives are deeply affected by each individual. Be vigilant. Not everyone has good intentions.
Yes, the last case also has been covered by "It's A Crime". Not only was he not doing well in school but he suddenly really wanted to get a computer program/laptop out of his storage unit...a program that he had written. Maybe someone offered to buy it and wanted to meet in a secluded area, like where the truck was finally found burnt out, but it was a setup to rob/kill him? Other people, and I think the police might too, think that since he wasn't doing well in school, he wanted to start a new life, so he went to somewhere secluded, burnt the truck he was using on purpose and just walked into the woods...I don't believe this one, BTW. Yeah...poor guy. I think it was a set up to rob/kill him, IMHO.
@@bettywith2girls Ah. Yes. Sounds very likely. As someone just hearing this, I don't buy the "new life" theory either. Seldom do. A person can't do much without identification. A new life costs money. New identities cost money. And most of us these days prefer some level of comfort and convenience. Again, based on new, limited info, sounds as though he was lured and victimized. It's a shame. Anyone who would do such a thing qualifies for the title of SK.
@/k/onnoisseur That's entirely possible, too. You probably know much more than I do about this particular case. I'm on the other side of the continent. But the story was impactful enough to bring response from many of us out here. I feel as if I sense personal pain in your query. If that is the case, my sincerest sorrows. Truly. There really are no words...
Thank you for bringing these missing men to our attention. So 2 of the cases were around Spences Bridge. Two or three cases, the criminal burnt the vehicle. Did no one see the smoke from this? No fire spotted? One was a young guy who was drinking at a party walking home. One was an imposing cowboy. I wouldn't want to mess with a cowboy. These are just mind blowing. My heart goes out to their families.
Spences Bridge is in the fraser canyon. It's very remote and the forest service roads run very deep into the backcountry. Impossible to see fire from the highway if it up a forest road
@@patcheezy1985 I was just going to say that too. People who have never been to these parts can't imagine the expansiveness of the area. One could disappear in a flash and never be seen again. A bomb could go off in those mountains and nobody would hear or see it. It's no surprise that people go missing here. Especially with the drug trade being so prominent too.
I have a feeling that the young man walking home from the party never actually left the party. Sometimes stuff happens at parties that you can't take back. It is also not uncommon for a person to get too drunk and pass out in the snow and freeze to death. At parties or walking home from parties. I personally know 2 separate families who've lost teenage kids this way. Very easy to hide a body in this vast forested area too, if something more sinister happened. I agree that the searchers would have been able to pick up his trail if he had walked out of that house on his own 2 feet. My heart goes out to this young man's family. It's awful. He looks so much like my own son. Heartbreaking.
@@freedapeeple4049 ..so there are hundreds of people out walking in the woods? Why did Bryan keep saying how isolated the area was? If that were true, these cases would be solved.
@@freedapeeple4049 ..then please find these missing people. PS As I stated earlier, the areas I was speaking about were not populated; the deep woods where they went missing. So many people and towns, yet 5 unsolved mysteries.
No way guy burned up his own van then disappeared without mentioning it to anyone!!!(with his dog, without contacting his family) no way no way!!! Hoping he is found soon!!!
Bryan, just discovered your channel and wanted to let you know I think you’re doing a wonderful job with your videos! I love your natural unaffected presentation, very refreshing. Stay real friend.
Thank you my friend. I know I studder and have Certain issues but I'm constantly working to improve. It's crazy that people actually mock me for a congenital defect. But it's people like you that make me continue. Thank you for your kind words and support 🙏
@@bawattsyl I grew up with a stammer, but just so you know all the people who give you a hard time are probably in a sad state and need to pump them selves up by picking on you and everyone else. Don’t worry you sound very confident in your vids actually and the small stutter is just charming in my opinion.
Nice job once again Byran. Definitely strange cases, all of them. My hunch is more than one criminal operating here. Also, do you know if they have looked in the storage unit on the last case? Just curious because 2 hours is a long time unless he was rearranging or looking for something in particular. Blessings and peace to the families. I hope they ALL receive closure.
I live in Alberta just on the other side of the Rockies from BC. We all know that this area in B.C. where the "triangle" is, has the highest population of major drug operations in Canada. It has the best growing conditions in Canada with lots of orchards and vineyards, and loads of forest that is perfect for growing large marijuana crops hidden away. Like the rest of Canada, it's a big, wild place. Lots of places to run drugs, hide a body, not alot of cameras, not alot of nosy neighbors. Lots of growops as well as harder drugs coming in from the coast on sketchy ships, travelling through the Okanogan, and the "triangle", as this is the main route to get through the mountains to access the rest of Canada. I'd like to know what condition that horse was found in? Assuming the horse was not alive, was it hit by a car, shot, mauled by a wild animal, laying in the ditch right beside the road or away from the road, what? I had a gut feeling that the reason this guy was riding that horse in that area was to check weed crops. Very common. Not to disrespect the family. But it's a plausible theory. Also there are plenty of mountain lions in that area that would welcome a lone rider to come along. They can attack unseen. Unfortunately, in BC, and many other areas of Canada, you could be killed by bears, wild cats, and even Moose and never be found. Anyway, I hope these men are found, justice is served, and the families are able to have some kind of peace knowing where their loved ones are and questions answered.
Doesn't matter where you are in the world their are bad people amongst us The saying The Wrong Place At The Wrong Time doesn't go down well with me at the end of the day we should beable to do and be wherever we want without being harmed but that's not life unfortunately bad people wanting to hurt others for no other reason than for their pleasure.It's awful but we have to be aware of those around us because one of them could be looking to harm us. I always find these cases so sad ordinary good people going about their business only to have their lives cut short by a monster/monsters with no trace. Thoughts go out to the family/friends of these guys and I hope they do get answers as to what happened to them🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
...2 burned out rigs, I'm telling you that screams foul play, I have a theory that some serial killers work the parks and forrests of the US and Canada for victims, you can't drop your guard just because you are in a park or just in the woods, I always carried my 38 in a shoulder holster....and I'm not a gun nut or anything, just cautious, I had my boys with me most of my hikes in younger years, I felt I needed to protect myself and my boys...it doesn't hurt to be ready for anything....
As a true crime addict, in my opinion, these cases may be the work of a serial killer. Bryan, you deliver such wonderful compassion podcasts. Thank you!
Underground Military bunkers are located under many national parks. Personally I believe they take ppl as needed for experimentation and testing. Seems the most plausible.
Another middle aged man went missing in October of last year, his rental vehicle was found abandoned in Clearwater and they have yet to find him. B.C is such a vast province with so many ecosystems its crazy, so many people go missing here SO often. Highway 16, The Highway of Tears, is a very good example
I'm getting the distinct idea that the RCMP is doing nothing, that they're just shoving these cases under the rug. They are after all, not American detectives who unfortunately, have many more of these types of disappearances and thus, much more experience. That said, people keep disappearing at an alarming rate. Alien abduction? Possibly with some. Serial killers? Not likely. Why they become disoriented is so utterly baffling. My heart goes out to the families and friends and may the lost reappear unharmed.
I noted that the burnt-out vehicles were located in very remote, difficult to access locations. That suggests someone local who knows this area _very_ well was responsible. Of course I don't know, but I wondered if the perpetrator might be an outfitter, a ranger, a local policeman (this surely isn't being done by a woman...), or a fire fighter.
I'm sorry and it may sound crazy but as a hiker and a woman who's been out North West, I simply won't hike their beautiful trails. Their continues to be evil lurking and lil done to prevent it. Crazy thinking ik but my instincts just won't let me hike anymore there.
Luke being of age where a life long fire fighter might have lung cancer. Burning your van is odd though but might be something a fire fighter might do. Might be letting go to commit SS. Ryan left the party, was there a fight? Could have been robbed but why take him? If someone screamed get into the car that makes me think someone hit him with there car and was telling him to get into the car. Maybe he died before they got to the hospital. Bens case was criminal? Cops will not say anything? Horse had to be covered in his blood. Dont know of any case where someone killed themselves on there horse. Richard and Ryan were they a couple? We have all heard of cases of bashing. The car was taken to hide? Or was taken for transportation near where the perpetrator lived so he could walk home. Marshal at his storage??? Then disappeared? Makes me think he was dealing pot. Got robbed. Thats just the mentality of this crime.
It's always maddening that a witness comes forward regarding the argument and hearing being told to get into car. The LE ignored this tip. They were POSITIVE he was in the snow. But, nothing, nothing was found after snow melted (much later). All clues pointed to a kidnapping. Poor kid, poor family.
The real question is why dint this witness walk 20feet out of his house to see what the hell was going on?? People are so freakin detached in their own world that a serious crime could be happening right under their nose and yet they do nothing....... Freakin way lame!
i dont think RCMP has solved a single misingpersons case in itrs jurisdiction and in most cases seems to be dismissive, hostile and unwilling to listen or cooperate with families or witnesses of these missing persons.
Ryan OMG Just a baby! Can't even imagine the pain his parents are in. Not knowing where he is... Just Heartbreaking all of these missing souls!! What is really going on?
Just FYI, Lytton, BC is 235km north east of Surrey, not 35km. The Thompson River drains into the Fraser at Lytton and Logan Lake is just north east of Lytton.
Thank you for the correction and I just checked my source and that's where I got that info. My apologies as I'm not familiar with that area so I went with what the news articles reported. Which can often be wrong so I appreciate you letting me and everyone know🙏 thank you for your feedback and for watching. I'm sorry again for the error.
The cowboy went out on his horse searching for some cattle. I wonder if that cattle had been stolen and he came upon the person or persons who stole it….argument ensued, maybe a threat made to report the theft to authorities and he was ordered to get off his horse and they did something to him. The horse was found alive, fully tacked up on a logging road. So he must have been on that horse at some point but got off and something happened. Stealing cattle is grand larceny due to their value. Don’t know if that’s was transpired but the video says he went out looking for lost cattle. Back in the old west in America…..stealing cattle could get you hanged. He got off that horse for some reason and I don’t think he fell off or was bucked off. They didn’t say anything about finding any blood on the saddle or on the horse anywhere indicating that he was shot on top of the horse….which is possible, then something was done with his body and they just left the horse there. The police are holding back information on that one because it’s definitely foul play.
As far as I could find they followed up with anyone they could track down. The problem with the 2 men was, despite the witness giving a description, they had no idea who they were or how to find them. They didn't have a license plate number or anything to go on. Very frustrating.
What happened to Ryan's dog? Did they abduct the dog, too? I love the RCMP, and that they still ride horses. It's just cool. I love horses. These cases are so odd. Thanks Bryan.
Your work ethic, integrity and drive to help families find peace is admirable. Thank you.
Perfectly said
So many unanswered questions for folks out there. Prayers to all
Bryan, you always do a great job in presenting these important events! Thk you! -- Prayers for the bereaved loved ones 🙏
I love that you cover these cases! Praying for all those that are still missing, and their loved ones. Thank you, Bryan!

I agree that the searchers would have been able to pick up his trail if he had walked out of that house on his own 2 feet. My heart goes out to this young man's family. It's awful. He looks so much like my own son. Heartbreaking.
Wow, terribly sad... prayers for these people and thier families ❤
With such a limited population, it makes these cases even more strange.
@@freedapeeple4049 ..they didn't go missing in the cities.
@@freedapeeple4049 ..so there are hundreds of people out walking in the woods? Why did Bryan keep saying how isolated the area was? If that were true, these cases would be solved.
@@freedapeeple4049 ..then please find these missing people. PS As I stated earlier, the areas I was speaking about were not populated; the deep woods where they went missing. So many people and towns, yet 5 unsolved mysteries.
No way guy burned up his own van then disappeared without mentioning it to anyone!!!(with his dog, without contacting his family) no way no way!!! Hoping he is found soon!!!
Keep up the good work, you make great videos! You read all of the stories with such compassion. Thank you
Bryan, just discovered your channel and wanted to let you know I think you’re doing a wonderful job with your videos! I love your natural unaffected presentation, very refreshing. Stay real friend.
Thank you my friend. I know I studder and have Certain issues but I'm constantly working to improve. It's crazy that people actually mock me for a congenital defect. But it's people like you that make me continue. Thank you for your kind words and support 🙏
@@bawattsyl I grew up with a stammer, but just so you know all the people who give you a hard time are probably in a sad state and need to pump them selves up by picking on you and everyone else. Don’t worry you sound very confident in your vids actually and the small stutter is just charming in my opinion.
Nice job once again Byran. Definitely strange cases, all of them. My hunch is more than one criminal operating here. Also, do you know if they have looked in the storage unit on the last case? Just curious because 2 hours is a long time unless he was rearranging or looking for something in particular. Blessings and peace to the families. I hope they ALL receive closure.
Thank You Again Bryan! These ones are very close to home.
Prayers for all
Perfect timing
I am from BC and I have never heard these before so thanks Bryan
Hello Bryan thank you for sharing these intriguing mysteries. There are too many feral individuals out there who plague upon innocent victims.
🤗
Unarmed victims.
Thank you for bringing this information to us.
Love hearing theories! 👈👍👍
More scary disappeances please,I like your channels keep it coming??!! REPRESENT FROGTOWN MINNESOTA U.S.A??!!
Great job! This show is a new fave!
I live in Alberta just on the other side of the Rockies from BC. We all know that this area in B.C. where the "triangle" is, has the highest population of major drug operations in Canada. It has the best growing conditions in Canada with lots of orchards and vineyards, and loads of forest that is perfect for growing large marijuana crops hidden away. Like the rest of Canada, it's a big, wild place. Lots of places to run drugs, hide a body, not alot of cameras, not alot of nosy neighbors. Lots of growops as well as harder drugs coming in from the coast on sketchy ships, travelling through the Okanogan, and the "triangle", as this is the main route to get through the mountains to access the rest of Canada.
I'd like to know what condition that horse was found in? Assuming the horse was not alive, was it hit by a car, shot, mauled by a wild animal, laying in the ditch right beside the road or away from the road, what? I had a gut feeling that the reason this guy was riding that horse in that area was to check weed crops. Very common. Not to disrespect the family. But it's a plausible theory. Also there are plenty of mountain lions in that area that would welcome a lone rider to come along. They can attack unseen.
Unfortunately, in BC, and many other areas of Canada, you could be killed by bears, wild cats, and even Moose and never be found. Anyway, I hope these men are found, justice is served, and the families are able to have some kind of peace knowing where their loved ones are and questions answered.
I believe the horse was found alive on the logging road. As if he dismounted and just left the horse there.
Sounds to me like if you live in Alaska or Canada you need a Glock 20 10MM with a streamlight flashlight and Federal Premium HST rounds
Look forward to these everyday
HI I LIVE IN CANADA B.C. LOWERMAINLAND....GREAT CHANNEL THANK YOU FOR SHARING
Be careful out there
Thanks Bryan
Haven't heard from your other half in a while😎 hope all is well, great work!
Disturbing
Hello again Mr Brian...
Yes , hello Mr Bryan! I love your show & your compassion & hard work. Thank You for doing what U do Brother. U are making a difference in this world ❤
It's sad when the law doesn't seem interested in investing time in there investigation. Good pic of the missing. Hope they are found. Thanks for this
Doesn't matter where you are in the world their are bad people amongst us
The saying The Wrong Place At The Wrong Time doesn't go down well with me at the end of the day we should beable to do and be wherever we want without being harmed but that's not life unfortunately bad people wanting to hurt others for no other reason than for their pleasure.It's awful but we have to be aware of those around us because one of them could be looking to harm us.
I always find these cases so sad ordinary good people going about their business only to have their lives cut short by a monster/monsters with no trace.
Thoughts go out to the family/friends of these guys and I hope they do get answers as to what happened to them🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@ Jan ! / I'm with you I can't stand the saying the wrong place at the wrong time. Bad things happen to good people, 24/7 always."
...2 burned out rigs, I'm telling you that screams foul play, I have a theory that some serial killers work the parks and forrests of the US and Canada for victims, you can't drop your guard just because you are in a park or just in the woods, I always carried my 38 in a shoulder holster....and I'm not a gun nut or anything, just cautious, I had my boys with me most of my hikes in younger years, I felt I needed to protect myself and my boys...it doesn't hurt to be ready for anything....
I love your channel Bryan!!
Bryan is the best
Thanks for the heads up, now I know to never travel to Canada or Alaska
Sounds like there is a serial killer in that area.
Interesting!! They sound like there all related. They look a lot alike... Great video! Thank you
As a true crime addict, in my opinion, these cases may be the work of a serial killer. Bryan, you deliver such wonderful compassion podcasts. Thank you!
How does burnt vehicles not say foul play.
just mind boggling, how do these people just disappear like this !!??? Serial killer? Incredible.
Underground Military bunkers are located under many national parks. Personally I believe they take ppl as needed for experimentation and testing. Seems the most plausible.
Perhaps there is not one answer- or explanation- but many possibilities.
@@ryansipler9855 whoa.....don't even go there.
How can Brian Owassa's case NOT be considered foul play?!?!?!
Everybody’s stressed these days…..not knowing anything is got to be agony.
Some bad people lurking in the woods waiting for the right opportunity
Really disturbing
Another middle aged man went missing in October of last year, his rental vehicle was found abandoned in Clearwater and they have yet to find him. B.C is such a vast province with so many ecosystems its crazy, so many people go missing here SO often. Highway 16, The Highway of Tears, is a very good example
Looks like justice is far and few with The RMCP
They are there to protect the "elite".....not the people. But right now they have to give a facade of helping/serving the people.
I'm getting the distinct idea that the RCMP is doing nothing, that they're just shoving these cases under the rug. They are after all, not American detectives who unfortunately, have many more of these types of disappearances and thus, much more experience. That said, people keep disappearing at an alarming rate. Alien abduction? Possibly with some. Serial killers? Not likely. Why they become disoriented is so utterly baffling. My heart goes out to the families and friends and may the lost reappear unharmed.
So sad for these families.
I hate that people responsible for the disappearences of others a lot of the time get away with it 🌸 Australia
Thanks for covering British Columbia disappearances! Lethbridge is in Alberta. I feel there are serial killer(s) in that area.
I noted that the burnt-out vehicles were located in very remote, difficult to access locations. That suggests someone local who knows this area _very_ well was responsible. Of course I don't know, but I wondered if the perpetrator might be an outfitter, a ranger, a local policeman (this surely isn't being done by a woman...), or a fire fighter.
That’s two vehicles buried up what the hell is going on? It’s gotta be a gang in the area
I'm sorry and it may sound crazy but as a hiker and a woman who's been out North West, I simply won't hike their beautiful trails. Their continues to be evil lurking and lil done to prevent it. Crazy thinking ik but my instincts just won't let me hike anymore there.
Luke being of age where a life long fire fighter might have lung cancer. Burning your van is odd though but might be something a fire fighter might do. Might be letting go to commit SS.
Ryan left the party, was there a fight? Could have been robbed but why take him? If someone screamed get into the car that makes me think someone hit him with there car and was telling him to get into the car. Maybe he died before they got to the hospital.
Bens case was criminal? Cops will not say anything? Horse had to be covered in his blood. Dont know of any case where someone killed themselves on there horse.
Richard and Ryan were they a couple? We have all heard of cases of bashing. The car was taken to hide? Or was taken for transportation near where the perpetrator lived so he could walk home.
Marshal at his storage??? Then disappeared? Makes me think he was dealing pot. Got robbed. Thats just the mentality of this crime.
It's always maddening that a witness comes forward regarding the argument and hearing being told to get into car. The LE ignored this tip. They were POSITIVE he was in the snow. But, nothing, nothing was found after snow melted (much later). All clues pointed to a kidnapping. Poor kid, poor family.
The real question is why dint this witness walk 20feet out of his house to see what the hell was going on?? People are so freakin detached in their own world that a serious crime could be happening right under their nose and yet they do nothing....... Freakin way lame!
It amazes me that law enforcement holds all the information about each case, Yet the cases are not solved ?
Seems like b.c is not the place to be
May Marshal Iwaasa be found soon!🙏Please God👼
At 13:36, Marshal Iwaasa left his mother's house in Lethbridge.
His mother resided in Lethbridge, not him.
Marshal resided in Calgary.
i dont think RCMP has solved a single misingpersons case in itrs jurisdiction and in most cases seems to be dismissive, hostile and unwilling to listen or cooperate with families or witnesses of these missing persons.
poor kid... RIP. car pickpu/perp was driver, identify the voice sound?...
I've been to Kamloops. Spent. A day their fishing. With my brother. And his family. On a lake !!
So if Luke was always with his dog- where's the dog? has he gone missing as well??
More reasons to always carry a gun.
Nor in Canada man.
💛
Ryan OMG Just a baby! Can't even imagine the pain his parents are in. Not knowing where he is... Just Heartbreaking all of these missing souls!! What is really going on?
Just FYI, Lytton, BC is 235km north east of Surrey, not 35km. The Thompson River drains into the Fraser at Lytton and Logan Lake is just north east of Lytton.
Thank you for the correction and I just checked my source and that's where I got that info. My apologies as I'm not familiar with that area so I went with what the news articles reported. Which can often be wrong so I appreciate you letting me and everyone know🙏 thank you for your feedback and for watching. I'm sorry again for the error.
@@bawattsyl No worries at all! I just wanted to clarify that in case the info could help at all. Cheers, Brian. Thanks for the great videos.
How sad..?
always and i mean always carry AT LEAST a 22 pistol or revolver when hiking !
Sun Peaks guy probably did get home but his roommates are saying he didn't for some reason. Did they volunteer to take a polygraph?!
Don't pick up hitch hikers, especially on your horse.
Don’t forget to like!🥰😍👍
Ben got tangled up with someone. No way he just disappeared!
The cowboy went out on his horse searching for some cattle. I wonder if that cattle had been stolen and he came upon the person or persons who stole it….argument ensued, maybe a threat made to report the theft to authorities and he was ordered to get off his horse and they did something to him. The horse was found alive, fully tacked up on a logging road. So he must have been on that horse at some point but got off and something happened. Stealing cattle is grand larceny due to their value. Don’t know if that’s was transpired but the video says he went out looking for lost cattle. Back in the old west in America…..stealing cattle could get you hanged. He got off that horse for some reason and I don’t think he fell off or was bucked off. They didn’t say anything about finding any blood on the saddle or on the horse anywhere indicating that he was shot on top of the horse….which is possible, then something was done with his body and they just left the horse there. The police are holding back information on that one because it’s definitely foul play.
The police have to be considering these deaths as potential serial killings. All relatively young men. Really.
Na they’re too busy taking away the ability to protect ur self
The other items that did not belong to him could possibly have been stolen items from other cars. (By the perps)
They must have seen something they weren't supposed to is there a lot of drug running going on in the area?? Or poaching maybe
Was the horse alive or dead? Did I miss where it was stated?
alive
The horse was alive and fully saddled. Just standing on the side of the highway..
GET IN THE CAR! Nope, no evidence of foul play.
Why did police not follow up with people at the party or the friend who heard arguing?
As far as I could find they followed up with anyone they could track down. The problem with the 2 men was, despite the witness giving a description, they had no idea who they were or how to find them. They didn't have a license plate number or anything to go on. Very frustrating.
I just keep thinking this is like an episode of dexter and they're all related some how.
What happened to Ryan's dog? Did they abduct the dog, too?
I love the RCMP, and that they still ride horses. It's just cool. I love horses.
These cases are so odd. Thanks Bryan.
