Former bouncer/doorman here. Anytime I had to eject a patron who had been overserved, I would ALWAYS find one of their friends to leave with them, or (if they were there alone, or their friends were equally wasted) we would send them home in a cab.

Happy to read that Sir .. I do not drink ..but it is true as woman or teen we always have eachother back when we are going in a bar . It should be the same with man or young male adults .imo I appreciate your commentary .Thank you !
People also get drugged in these places so good for you. This was so sad, regardless of the state laws. You do the right and humane thing. He could have also stumbled in front of a car. Ugh! Keep being you and may all the good kindnesses you to come back to you and yours ten fold!!
I have a 22year old son. My heart goes out to his parents and family. I am praying to god please help his parents to find Riley, And bring Riley home 🙏
What’s odd is that Riley’s bank card was found, but nothing else or no sign of Riley has been found. I’ve been praying that he’s found safe and alive. I pray for Riley’s safe return so he can be back with his family soon🙏🏻 Continued prayers for Riley’s family and friends!
The drug Scopolamine is being used in a lot of crimes in and outside of bars. It is used to extract bank info from their victims. They willingly give up their info when under the drug. Why is this info being silenced??? Google it!!
What if he's not in the water. Need to expand this search. Vacant blds ect. They haven't found his phone. Praying they find him. My heart is with his Mom.
He vanished behind that bridge of the homeless people and his card was found somewhere close, ohone went off somewhere past that and there’s a vid of a guy running. How is this not out there more. Not saying that’s what happened but like cmon gotta dig
Because if there is video of suspicious activity such as Riley running from something or the video shows a suspect, the detectives probably will not release the video (even try to quash it if it gets released) until they speak to/charge the suspect or are able to determine a reasonable non-criminal cause of the suspicious activity. It's standard procedure to protect the integrity of the case should someone be charged with a crime.
My first thought was I hope they were searching all the abandoned buildings and new construction there's a ton of humongous buildings going up. Several holes that you could fall in
I know they are focused so hard on the river...They need to look in industrial type/railroad/old abandoned sites LIKE Fort Nashborough (where the homeless man says he found Riley's shirt!) And places like the Cumberland River Greenway...

I have that Horrible thought maybe he’s been taken by someone, After 13dys and he’s just vanished like that, it happens to men as much as women sadly…. I Hope is safe his poor parents it must be heartaching 😢❤
That bar needs to be held responsible for telling him to get out and provided no assistance to be sure he got home ok How did his friends just leave him like that
That's what I was thinking. I think he fell in with the homeless... I feel he's still alive & may not know who he is because I think he bumped his head before he fell.
Look at the scrap yard.. junk Yusuf.. it is a ring of criminals who has been getting away with this.. come on law enforcement get a grip on this criminal behavior!
I’m sure they are doing the best they can with the resources they have. As tragic as it is, the world keeps spinning and crime don’t stop because one man goes missing.
Yes, that was the 1st question I asked- Why didn’t his frat brothers stick with him? I’m not sure how many were in their group, but surely ONE of them could have. As well as how long it took them to report him missing? It’s just not right, take care of your people, stick together. 🙏🏻✝️❤️😀
A Psychic said Riley was Taken By Car, across Town To a Junk Yard By 4-5 people, Gang Related beaten & Killed. That’s why His Body isn’t in River. Tragedy. Riley’s Friends Failed Him.
His body is probably in a deep along the river ahead of the last pingpoint, it's supposed to float up to the surface eventually, if the searchers don't find it first- Alas
Have they searched those homeless camps? Just because cops saying no reason to think a crime committed - you have right to search anywhere if looking for someone missing, especially on non private land. If those camps not been searched then totally pathetic and oblivious on law enforcements part. I also saw where posted sign after 2nd bridge that says under 24 hour video by police, is that just a scare tactic and not true? His last known location there, so where is the video?? If not just a scare tactic. Riley could be trapped somewhere injured from his own not from someone else, but unable to cry for help or be heard. Not sure if people recall the man who crashed his truck in northern Indiana right before Christmas, he was trapped in his crashed truck under a bridge for I think 7 days before fishermen saw and found him. Searchers need think outside the box, don’t search just the obvious places. Prayers Riley is found soon!
His body is probably in a deep of the river ahead of the last pingpoint, it's supposed to float up to the surface on the days ahead if the searchers don't find it first- Alas
No one mentions what Nashville is REALLY like because it's 'bad for tourism' Tourism dollars keep towns like that afloat and crime is not widely publicized so as not to alarm tourists. I've lived in a tourist town for 30 years so I've seen it firsthand.
What was the activity on his bankcard from that evening before he disappeared? Is it possible he was sex trafficked? Also I find it odd that there is no info coming from the frat bros as to how much he was actually drinking. This situation of men being drugged and then robbed is not a new thing and it looks to me somewhat organized with likely bartenders, servers, bouncers and a driver being involved.
I once had a coat room young man call a cab for me in London and it was a fake cab and the man grabbed my arm and tried to stuffed in the car. I could not go back in as was afraid coat room man would help stuff me in the car. I broke free and they followed me. Thankfully a real cabbie screeched to a halt and yelled "run miss run". I made it safely into the real cab. Now I hear there seems to be men missing from all kinds of bars after feeling drugged. We all need to watch out for one another these days. What out for foreign travel ..you can't always catch a cab because they restrict supply and there may not be Ubers in the area.
I read he didn’t do anything threatening, he actually attempted to help a server, but I don’t know the facts. If his behavior was so bad, the footage should be released.
My guess on the text "Good Lopes" is bc of predictive text, he may have been typing or trying to text "Got Lost" but bc of his condition, he just didn't want to mess correcting it.
Probably what has happened to Riley is the night he was on Gay Street, there was two patrol cruisers and a Cop was there investigating a Smash and Grab, Riley being intoxicated had already been kicked out of the Bar probably thought the cops were looking for him, and Riley not wanting to be arrested for public intoxication ran and went into the bushes near the River, but fell down the bank into the river dropping his debt card. His last text message to his girlfriend, she said are you having a good time at the bar? And he responded Good Lopes, he probably was being sarcastic and meant to say Good Cops, or Oh Good Now Cops!!!!!
Kindly disagree....many people have such great ideas and I would hope law enforcement reads through as many of these as possible. Many people. Including Gabby Petito, found due to some of these comments. It gets a bit much, I agree, but shows people care, a rare thing these days.
A local told a you tuber that police should check empty buildings because there was a lot of crime in them and in the area he was last seen. Hope that got done. So sad all around.
i hope they were searching the river from day one. the river is a huge landmark. even drunk, he probably knew the river was not near his hotel. because he walked along the river, it makes me think he might have had another destination. and also that he probably did fall in. hope i'm wrong.
I'm sorry I know they don't want to let go but he would have sobered up the next day and got himself back to hotel. If that shirt had throw up on it going down shirt most people reflexes you bend over to be sick. He might have drank to much to fast shock system alcohol poisoning. He could have decided to swim maybe to sober up some and was too much for his system to take. I pray a miracle may happen but it's been too long now. Someone would have seen him by now. The water is the only place. Prayers for everyone 🙏
Many you tubers cover people if all races and there are searches...people just don't know where to look. I think this grabs people more be ause there were so many times be could have been saved and no one helped ..makes everyone feel unsafe.
Praying for help. God so loved the world that He gave His Son (Jesus Christ) that whoever believes in Him will not die but have everlasting life. John 3:16 Receive Christ and believe today the consequences are eternal!

Strangers? Yet no one helped him when he was drunk and could barely walk.
I pray for this family and everyone in this world. If we don't have each other's backs, we have nothing.
What if he's not in the water. Need to expand this search. Vacant blds ect. They haven't found his phone. Praying they find him. My heart is with his Mom.

Praying here in Springfield Missouri 🙏❤️
I hope the family finds him alive. Unfortunately, I think he may be gone - I think he may have fallen over the railing on that bridge into the river.
RIP. I am so sorry.
🙏 prayers from Western Kentucky
That bar needs to be held responsible for telling him to get out and provided no assistance to be sure he got home ok
How did his friends just leave him like that
Praying for you all 🙏🏻❤️
Please release the video.
Why haven't they invaded each and every homeless tent? And even look underneath the tents.
That's what I was thinking.
I think he fell in with the homeless...
I feel he's still alive & may not know who he is because I think he bumped his head before he fell.
Everyone should also be looking for James Wray as well. He wondered into the woods after being disoriented and being confused at a gas station.
Look at the scrap yard.. junk Yusuf.. it is a ring of criminals who has been getting away with this.. come on law enforcement get a grip on this criminal behavior!
Yes, and the dump
Did you report it...?...Thanks for the info....
I’m sure they are doing the best they can with the resources they have. As tragic as it is, the world keeps spinning and crime don’t stop because one man goes missing.

What about the homeless guy wearing his shirt?
It wasn't his shirt. Different color.
Something is really off about this whole night from no friends staying with him and being kicked out of bar...
A Psychic said Riley was Taken
By Car, across Town
To a Junk Yard
By 4-5 people, Gang Related
beaten & Killed.
That’s why His Body isn’t in River.
Tragedy.
Riley’s Friends Failed Him.
Everyone walking around in the same circle.
Now people just looking for 5 minutes of fame are late to the show. They're just going to get in the way.
His body is probably in a deep along the river ahead of the last pingpoint, it's supposed to float up to the surface eventually, if the searchers don't find it first- Alas
Check if he has been kidnapped.
I don't like where this whole story is going.
I have a strong feelings that he was kidnapped
He has been found dead at 7.30😢
Check hotels within 6 blocks for rooms booked that night and are still occupied
Why? He didn't have a bank card and he isn't hiding out dummy.
They just found a body...🙏🙏💔💔💔...

his iphone and iphone watch stopped working at the same time....tells me he went into the river
His body is probably in a deep of the river ahead of the last pingpoint, it's supposed to float up to the surface on the days ahead if the searchers don't find it first- Alas
Notice how no one mentions what the area is like and what sort of people live/crash there. Why?
They are homeless whats to know. Hopefully if you seen something say something

Friday would be the last day on the float chart if he went in the river. Hope he isnt trapped by debris🙏
Praying for the family. God and angels please find Riley 😇🙏🕊
Trying to find out what is making people assume that he’s in the water. The clock ran out a long time ago if that’s not the case.
I think it b/c of the bankcard find, the surveillance cameras and the phone ping, all conjoin under James Robertson (toll) Bridge.
Are there tunnels he could have fell in ??
I thought you were going to show the video....🙄

They found his shirt on a homeless guy with vomit on it, he claims he found it on a rail. I feel bad for the family..
And they can't find that homeless guy now they said
He could have not even had his debit card. He could have lost it when he fell down or somewhere else off camera. Someone finds it then tosses it
