This YouTuber Disappeared Under DISTURBING Circumstances: The UNSOLVED Cold Case of a Missing Person

- Nicolas Sonderegger mysteriously vanished in the middle of the night and completely disappeared. New details have emerged regarding what may have led to his disappearance. To this day, Nic remains a missing person, and no other details regarding this unsolved cold case have been released. This is the true story of what led to Nic vanishing near the Salton Sea...
FIRST VIDEO SEARCHING FOR NIC: • UNSOLVED: The DISTURBI...
NIC'S RUclips CHANNEL: / sunspeik
** UPDATE ** : This morning, we received a privacy complaint regarding this video and voluntarily complied. We blurred the mugshot of Nic's uncle, who Nic and Austin were both working for when Nic went missing. We could have fought it and probably won, but our main goal is to get Nic's story out there. If this video got pulled because of the unblurred mugshot, that wouldn't do anything for Nic.
Since this video was published, we have also received extremely hostile messages from Austin, who thought we were saying that he went missing too. He wants to make it clear that he's not missing too - he was just ignoring us. He was also very angry about Nic's uncle's mugshot being included in this video, and said that this video influenced a train of thought that he (Austin) had a part in Nic's disappearance.
Keep safe you two. Hope nic is still alive
I can't help but wonder why Austin would "ignore you" if he truly wants his friend to be found. All though I can see why Nic's uncle would be pissed about the mugshot. Even though it is public information.
Sounds like foul play to me
@@brewdogg77 I agree. The only reason we did include the mugshot is because according to public information, his uncle has a violent criminal history. One of his charges was something that's one of the worst crimes you can commit against a woman. We weren't looking to "expose" him or anything of that nature, but due to the nature of his crimes and his relationship with Nic, we thought it would only be fair to not hide this from you guys. This is one of the reasons we aren't going to do these investigative missing persons videos anymore; we don't seek to upset people with these videos, but if you're going to give an unbiased look into a case, you have to report all uncomfortable truths that are relevant to the case.
Um I would like to keep watching these😂but this is sad tbh of almost got a really weird vibe
Don't know why this was recommended to me but I hope he gets found.
Same
Same
I definitely agree. It's awesome that you guys are trying so hard to locate him! I wish you all the best.
Same
Qwertyuiopkl556 same hope he gets found😕 he seems like a nice guy
Have you guys actually SEEN Austin though? When you talked to him, from the last time you saw him in person perform Nic disappeared, to the last time you talked to Austin, have you PHYSICALLY SEEN HIM? Did you call him and HEAR his VOICE?
It is very suspicious that he kept avoiding you and didn’t even see you guys when you were in town. If he didn’t call you, that is bizarre.
Austin seemed too close to Nic to just avoid you guys without reason. I’m worried for him.
MermaidSyno and that Nic’s family is saying Austin is staying with them, sounds like a cover up
MermaidSyno I wondered the same thing... That could’ve been the Uncle, or anybody replying to their messages... I kept waiting for them to touch on that subject, but I didn’t hear it if they did!! Unless they’ve laid eyes on him, they need to assume that it isn’t him, and stop relaying information about what the other One has said!!
I was thinking the SAME thing!
Yeah I was wondering if someone was impersonating Austin, in the chat using past tense about Nic and everything. Idk. The questions-lists accusatory vibe combined with it, sounds like he is being framed maybe? Haven't finished the video yet, I might come up with something else too. Oh, wasn't he homeless - no quarantee of internet access on hand..
I thought the same. Make sure you meet Austin as soon as possible!
A google search will show you he was in some way connected to a major meth drug bust in sept 2018.
I think his uncle has ties with drugs, Nic and Austin both work for the uncle. Something went down, Nic paid with his life. Austin all of a sudden has been taken in by the uncle (buying him a truck etc) and if austin says too much he will vanish just like Nic.
curvae this seems to be the utmost believable conspiracy.
Maybe they were his uncles drug mules and they went to deliver some drugs to a good friend of his uncle, it turned sour and his uncle helped to clean it up, paid off Austin to keep his mouth shut. That's just something I believe has happened (it's actually really common for it to happen)
curvae wow how did they not know this if they r investigating his disappearance???????
I highly doubt that honestly, but good theory
So the uncle did something wrong, made other drug dealers angry, and they killed as a message to the uncle basically saying "you do one wrong move you'll disappear like you nephew." It all makes sence.
I don’t understand why his friend and family are focused on slandering your videos instead of being grateful that someone is willing to help and care about nick.
Yeah that is extremely sus.
Means they probably had something to do with it. Fam doesn't act like that without being guilty of something.
hmmm, consider this, so your best friend disappeared, you are being grilled by cops and suddenly some random RUclipsrs you met months ago and are not in contact with suddenly make a video, on your friend and do not even inform you. They use the footages in which you can be seen and basically discuss your situation. This was all relatively new. I would probably be angry or hurt too, might even think that the said youtubers are using the fact that my friend is missing for some views.
@@epochproductions Okay Austin
@@epochproductions Nope I won't. I would seek them and clear out any air of misunderstanding over coffee or something since we know each other like normal sensible adults. Then I would see how I could help them out in anyway I can, in the end my friend is missing, and that's what most important right now. We never know, every little help counts.
I'm a community organizer with 25 years of experience working at street-level with street kids and the homeless. The first thing you need to understand to make sense of what's going on is that the street is full of drama 24/7, and life on the street is super-chaotic. This means if someone says, "I will be there, guaranteed 100%," and they actually _want_ to be there, the odds of them being able to do so is about one in three. The odds drop precipitously from there if they're reluctant in the slightest. It's just the nature of the street that even with the best intentions, people living on the street will be flaky. About _everything._
Second, and this is absolutely critical, street life and drugs are synonymous. To survive on the street you need what's called your street family, and everyone in the family does everything together. If one person picks up a habit, they'll all pick up the habit. They watch each other's backs and give each other support, but they also share each other's weaknesses. If Nic was using, then I guarantee you Austin was also using. No judgement; street life is hard and drugs are how you keep from going insane or just killing yourself. Think of drugs on the street as social lubricant, the way middle class people use cocktails or a bottle of wine at a dinner party as social lubricant.
And the third thing you need to understand is related to both my first and second points: the street has its own laws and its own ways of handling problems, and the enforcement is done by the drug networks. At a couple of levels above the street dealers, you have very serious people whose interests are not served by a lot of media and police attention. They will tolerate a certain level of drama as long as the beef doesn't rise to a level which threatens to create a heat score. If a situation is shining official light on the street, the enforcers will be sent out to politely but firmly tell people to keep their mouths shut and stop stirring up the pot. These enforcers don't threaten, and they don't accept excuses. They inform people how things will occur from this point, and if people fail to listen, then they just... disappear. If people who have been talking to you on the regular suddenly clam up and ghost you, the odds are good they've been told to drop it and chill out by an enforcer. This is doubly the case if this disappearance has anything to do with drug debts, whether because Nic is in the wind to avoid paying or because he's been disappeared for ripping someone off.
My last point is a suggestion. You are technically journalists, and police departments have media relations specialists whose job is specifically to deal with media requests for information. If you want the best available information from a relatively reliable source, contact the police department there, identify as journalists with a web show called Explore With Us, and ask for information on this case.
If you need more advice, I'd be happy to help. Reply with contact information and I'll get back to you. I hope you actually have a chance to read this comment and it doesn't just get lost in the 1500+ comments already posted.
I hope they see this
BUMP so Emma and her dad see this
NoJusticeNoPeace Wow this is great insight !
Bump
That is because the cops have a hand in using the drama for their financial gain and purposes. California is the most corrupt State in the union. They run the sets. Your view point is very narrow and yes I use to live on the streets and know what I have seen. There is a dark underground and best believe the cops have a hand in it all.
Be careful of the company you keep. I have zero doubt you've already been in contact with the person responsible for Nic's disappearance. I know the type. You get close too certain people and can't see their shadiness until it's too late. Stay safe!
So true man
I also agree that there IS foul play, and that you've been in contact with the person responsible for Nic's disappearance.. His body has to be somewhere! I think the possible lead that his body is in that building mentioned and should definitely be searched. So sad..and probably for no reason at all. I truely hope his remains are found and he can rest easy.
I couldn't agree more. Very concerning.
Now i can understand why EWU are no longer live streaming. Way to dangerous to advertise your location when out in the middle of nowhere, especially when someone may have it in for them
They should make a copy of the information and take to the police 🚔 so they can go to Nic’s cousins house
Mountain lion screams sound like a woman screaming bloody murder.
Food for thought.
That’s shits freaky I heard it before
@@wilted_rose510 Mountain lions can scream like a person. If you hear it i would start back tracking out of the area.
Maybe he got killed by a lion????
W A A lion doesn’t sound like a scream. A fox? I’ve never heard that. But I have heard a lion roar. I was standing probably 25 feet from him & it felt like the ground was shaking. Vibrated through my body. He was huge!
mac and chees with internet don't ask Lions in California? Are you kidding? Maybe in the zoo!
Seems to me someone knows something and there not talking. These people are to fishy if you ask me. You can’t trust anyone. Sounds like he was murdered in my opinion.
I blame uncel
@@skakeboard_gamez5285 it was obviously a rogue SS squad duh I ordered i.......... .....blaming me is fishy..................oh sheiBe sleep with one eye open
@@skakeboard_gamez5285 yep. And i think uncle killed Austin because he was afraid that Austin would rat him out to the cops.
@@skakeboard_gamez5285 you cant blame anyone. no one knows what happen. all your doing is feeding drama and speculation. he may or may not be dead. but i do know this ... when u accuse someone of these type of things it can put their life in danger also. think before you speak
Murdered him and scaterd some of his belongings around to confuse people I'm not saying that's what happened but there is something very strange going on 🤔
I honestly believe you’re a wonderful dad and this is the best quality time you could have with your daughter and I love it. It’s inspiring and I’ll watch you guys always 💕
Wait what..I thought it was his girlfriend
Omfg no, I hope you're joking. They're parent/adult child.
@@ruthwoytsek7750 in fairness to that other commenter, it is possible if you havent watched a lot of the other videos. I mean older guys do at times date younger women and older wimen date younger guys at times,
Jim Jones but he doesnt even look that old. i thought they were a couple too, until just now.
For real. One day she will look back and be so thankful for this.
2:53 Nic was obviously a kind & compassionate guy...he showed concern over the trapped & scared bird. As an animal lover, that type of gesture always makes my heart smile. It’s a tragedy how quickly this became a cold case :(
That's what I thought too. The way a person treats animals tells me everything I need to know about them usually
Yes, I typically think that people who are that kind to animals are kind in general
It's sad how if your poor your case is set on a simmer if lit at all.
Dont give up searching.Samething happened to my son.No one has searched for him.There is a big story to it.I do now he is dead.Now there needs to be more people like you that care.Thats awesome.Keep caring.Great show.Also dont ever let people commments stop at what your doing.Keep believing and stay focused.Thank you for sharing your stories.
I wish you could find my son.You are so into your work this is a hard and heartbreaking story that needs attention.Please just look at how many people have went missing out here.Its a story on its own.A lady who has a web sight called the snohomish county reporter has done alot but its dangerous out here.Please just read her story about the missing people on highway 2.No one will help me find him.I just want to put him to rest.I and my family...and especially his children need closure.The story she wrote is called the "Killing fields."This needs so much exposure.A lady in Arlington,Washington is going through the same defisty I am.The Snohomish County Sheriffs were the last one to see her daughter alive also.Please just read the story.If you dint like it I understand but being a mom of a missing person who has not been found is the hardest thing in life you have to go through.I thank you for your time at least reading my message.Keep up the good work.I hope and pray someone will help us find my boy.🙏✌👍🆗💯%.😇
@@loko7914 what comment?All I see is my 2 and yours.
I have a question
I'm so sorry to hear that you lost your son! I would freak if my son went missing. 😭
@@juniorpannwitz9369 whats your question?
Just stumbled on this video. Didn’t watch the whole thing but the text messages you showed have Austin saying, “he WAS a really special person.” Past tense. He killed him or knows for sure that he’s dead.
Jason Robinson everybody knows 24hrs is key to finding someone alive.
It's at 5:26. Explore with us actually used past tense first so that would have directed Austin to do the same in his response.
Jason Robinson 67 exactly, creeps like Austin are the worst, They show no emotions
Old Blind Darby dumbass
Actually with this past tense thing... It reminded me of the storry where the guy was being interviewed about this girl being missing and hes talking bout her in past tense and it turned out he murdered her and the way he just shuts down on live tv when they tell him they found the body.... Also I am NOT acusing anyone, i just remembered the storry and figured that sounded similar :)
How do you KNOW Austin is still alive? It sounds as though someone is posing as Austin to me.
Exactly especially if they don't want to meet up all of a sudden
I just realised that...
EXACTLY what I've been thinking!!!I don't think either one of them are alive unfortunately. And that family knows what happened to BOTH of them. When the person asked her who she was, I knew it wasn't Austin. This is scary & very sad.
yea towards the end of the video I thought that too
Sounds like 2 missing persons to me
"Since this video was published, we have also received extremely hostile messages from Austin, who thought we were saying that he went missing too."
This screams he could also be missing, and the person who messaged you doesn't want anyone to suspect he may be. These seem like very dangerous and unpredictable people you guys are dealing with. I would definitely back off from this one for now. Maybe, _carefully,_ try to see if someone can get eyes on Austin. I'd start there.
right
Yeah... lived in the valley all my life. I agree with everyone who’s saying it but don’t trust anyone here and just forget about it. Things like this usually happened for a reason and should not be looked into. Sad to say.
True you should keep away there are dangerous people in the world so you should be careful
Seems like a group into killing...
Paul J absolutely!
It's so sad this man went missing. He seems like a nice guy to have taken care of stray kitties even though he was homeless.
It seems like the worst stuff happens to the kindest people, its just so unfair and sad!
And he helped the little dove
There is good and bad in everyone.
The green river killer was a loving husband and father.
Im not bothered about sponsors... im more concerned with how freaking small is his town?!... "heard a scream on the other side of town" damn thats no scream then.. its a Siren 😱
@@SundayMourningLove dude has spidey senses or ultra suuper duuper hearing xD
You’ve obviously never been out to the salton sea.
Sunday Mourning it’s like an hour and half east of San Diego in the desert. Super sick for exploring because basically it’s all abandoned
@@SundayMourningLove it's not hard to hear a far scream in the middle of the night
@@SundayMourningLove so you really haven't been to the salton sea? Cause It's pretty quiet there
It sounds like Austun is scared of someone.
He is
Mamma Doxie ya I think someone close to him did something to him if they stoped talking to these people
I think it was either Austin caused it (not saying he did it but what if like they got in a fight and he ran away or he convinced him to go see what the scream was) or Austin is in trouble but either way I’m not trusting Austin as a resource.
I thought that too, could be he's getting help from the uncle so he keeps quiet. Just a thought.
Maybe he saw something and is fearing he or Nic will get hurt if he tells
What I find interesting is this: I reached out to Nic's family when I was creating the video for Nic on my page. I NEVER received ANY responce from anyone!!! You guys were the only source of information. Honestly the information y'all had before is the same!!! Lol. Just a few updates nobody knew about until today. Thank you for the update! If y'all ever want me to do a video in a missing person case you are covering let me know. Nic's story really got to me because I lived in the valley for 1/3 of my life.
I met Nic during college when we were both living in San Francisco. Such a sweet and adventurous guy. We would go to warehouse raves together. One of my fondest memories with him was when we went on an impromptu road trip down to SoCal. I'm so sad that he hasn't been found.
Your editing is getting better and better! And I think you've found a new niche with these mystery videos
Scooby Dooby Doo!
I have military experience in investigative procedures and from all the messages you guys have received from Austin and Nic's family I feel like they are all purposely texting to get you to stop searching for Nic. I can sense a fear from them that you are uncovering too much and they want you to stop. Like you, I am not pointing blame at anyone but only pointing out strange occurrences. I have a feeling when all of the truth comes out you won't be surprised at the outcome. One thing I learned in the Army is to always follow your gut because rarely does it send you on a wrong direction. Also, be very careful with assuming you're being messaged by the people you "believe" are messaging you. I could go into a ton more detail but I won't bore you. But just really sit down and weigh all optioms out with those messages before accepting that they're true...
I know a lot of story's like this. But there's something about this story in particular that makes me feel uneasy.
Right
It's weird that Austin was referring to Nick in past tense like right after he disappeared. That's super suspicious to me!
I think Austin killed Nick
Exactly, plus avoiding these guys, not responding to them. Hes last person to see him too, usually is the killer. Hope he's alive, but don't believe he is.
@@josephnadeau11 we don't know who the actual last person to see him was
It was so sad people was being so mean to them. No one deserve that. I think Austin might behaving issues with survivor guilt. Blaming himself. While yes hes not a victim, he was nics friend and the last to see him. That's why he stop taking maybe? You shouldn't have to explain your sponsorships ether.
Thank you for updating us. I hope nic is okay.
Add to it how Nic's family is actinf towards him and your theory makes a lot of sense to me
People can be soooo rude!!! Feel sorry for Austin and Nick, two guys just TRYING to stay alive!!!
That's if there alive
@@lawandacooper3271 isnt that almost like a desert? they might be lost idk not paying attention to the video
What I can’t believe is people complaining about someone taking an old wire out of an abandoned building that’s being demolished LOL wtf
exactly what i thought
People who own those buildings can reclaim the copper wire before it's torn down, it's still theft! If the person stealing gets hurt or killed, then any plans the owner has MUST be delayed until lawyers or police are done investigating. That can hold up something for years. Have you heard about the thief who successfully sued the homeowners he was trying to rob? They stood on a skylight, fell through and got stuck by a knife on the kitchen table below. AND WON MONEY FROM THE PEOPLE HE WAS TRYING TO ROB.
aazhie I think I would of carried him to the roof again and dropped him down the same hole lol
@@aazhie Did you miss the part where Nic said he knew who owned it and had permission to take what he wanted? No? I wish I could pretend to be as dumb as someone who can't fucking listen. .-.
But it was a piece of wire, and taken lIvE on yOU-tuBE
i honestly knew austin growing up until 14 years old in school. thats insane he was a 50/50 to show up .
Pulling for you, Nic. We all are.
@Autumnleaf2011 Okay dial it down. Be respectful. Also you have to think what if someone in nics family like Christina or Julian is threatening him.
Police intentionally withhold details when conducting these types of investigations. It's possible you were texting an investigator claiming to be Austin.
How if Austin was perfectly giving them info about what happened, but not the right info...if it were a investigator he/she would give them the right info maybe, but I like where your going.
Bryan Rodriguez police and investigators keep a lot of information until the investigation they are on is over
Whats is wierd. That he answered to you:
" I KNOW HE ....WAS... A REALLY SPECIAL PERSON. THANK YOU."
why he talk about him in past time? How do he know he is gone... he was.... why? And how do he know it. It was few days....
When a loved one vanishes under mysterious circumstances, sometimes people just have a horrible feeling within them that they are dead. I know, because I had the same feeling within me when someone I cared about went missing, and in far less suspicious circumstances. And sadly I was right. Austen did say that he believed something horrible happened to Nick and that he is dead, after all, and even without my own experience I honestly can't blame him. I am very scared for the life of this man.
I've done that before because I thought my friend was gone and I used it in past tense before even though it was only 2 days because I thought she was dead but she showed up a few days later so you can't blame him. What if the reason Austin isn't answering then is because the killer killed him as well so the killer doesn't get caught???
@@angelrose1714 Oh totally, I'm just trying to say that it could or could not be indicative of foul play on his part.
@@angelrose1714 Oh no I totally agree. What I believe is that he may not be guilty, or he could not not be guilty. At the end of the day it's up in the air so I try to be conscious of both sides. I truly hope police and investigators stick to this case and give us an additional update soon. As a civilian I feel like its all up to law enforcement and investigators to give us more definitive answers, and I hope they take this case more seriously,
Talking about people in past tense usually means you know they’re dead and are guilty well usually in cases like this anyway
Maybe the man you are texting to is not Austin
That’s what I was thing. Some one is pretending to be Austin! Call him on the phone.
And maybe that’s why Christina was messaging them, because maybe she knows amour something happening to Austin when he tried to tell someone
So they heard a scream and austin decided to go to sleep?
I don’t know about you. But if I heard a disembodied scream in the middle of the night, the last thing I’d want to do is go to sleep.
If I heard a scream, I would have stayed up, wondering what it was. If I was brave enough, I’d take a weapon and investigate. Either way, I would not just brush it off and go to sleep
A lot of people wouldn't investigate since there's so many stories now about people doing that as a trap
youtube youtube living on the streets you hear a lot of crazy stuff when you're trying to go to sleep at night. you don't usually go to investigate it. street life is hectic and crazy...if you're sleeping near where a bunch of other homeless people are (and u usually are) ur gonna hear crazy stuff and leave it be. as a former street kid that part didn't seem weird to me like it does to a lot of people. maybe its cos I've lived in the inner city or been homeless my whole life so I'm used to hearing things at night but I would never go look.
In the midnight hour...she cries more more more...
Get ALL THE SPONSORS YOU CAN!! GOOD FOR YOU!!!😁😁
Thanks for making an update on this. I had been wondering for a while if he was still missing. I hope he is found someday
Though recently newer to your channel, I wanted to thank you both (Bob and Emma) for your continued respect of your subjects, the integrity with which you hold yourselves and the down-to-earth honesty you bring to the world and your subs. It matters.
Stumbled upon this by accident. Im truly getting bad energy from this story. I'm praying he's ok.
You changed the narrative of Nick's missing persons case and that's a good thing. Sometimes a breath of fresh perspective is necessary. It's not unusual to get conflicting stories at the start of an investigation. That's why people are interviewed over and over again by the police. It's still one of our most effective tools to get to the truth. I've been investigating for nearly 30 years and you did everything I would do. Keep looking for the truth it really does always come out, but publicity is key. I've always said, a case will not be solved before it's time, be patient with the authorities. Sometimes it looks like they have moved on to more important cases, when they don't know where else to do. Then the phone rings or someone talks and the fire is lit on the case. May God's protection be over you and your friends during this difficult time.
Mrs Meowkins I’ve worked criminal, in my younger years, and now regulatory investigations until retirement.
Amen.
If I disappeared I would hope my family would be looking for me, I think it is very strange his good friend and family stopped talking to you about, where his close and wallet where found, stoped talking is Strange to me
Everyone is ignoring the fact he went missing after he heard a scream why would someone be screaming most likely a life or death situation so if he went to investigate he could of found the reason there was a scream and thats why he went missing
Yh and if there are two body imprints one could have been someone else's.......
exactly, if there was a scream, they both heard it, and if Nic, then ran off to investigate, how did they fall asleep together and Austin wake up alone? surely he would have seen Nic, leave after the scream?
From the above video, it sounded like they agreed not to go investigate. Both fell asleep as it was late. Then when Austin woke up Nick was gone.
I'm curious as to how they heard a scream from across town!
@@Sin-102 they are called echoes ......
why would Austin use "WAS" a special person in the text ( Past tense)
he killed him.
Or it's not really Austin and he's dead as well
Yep.
Was because he’s not alive anymore
@@rileywilliams846 thats why i put past tense i got that i just didnt want to say he done it .
Very nice of you to risk a lot to help,hope one day the truth emerges. Thanks for your content.
You spoke to THE Austin originally.... then someone found out, and took away his ability to respond or be reached....
And then took his place and started acting as Austin,,,,,
Maybe it was the cousin...?
Thinking the same, or maybe it wasnt austin at all, however if austin was initially ok then them letting out where austin was (living with nics family) may cause austin to also go missing. Before they released that they shpuld have made sure it was actually austin video chat phone call in person etc. They really should check on austin. Make sure hes infact ok.
Am I the only one that thinks that Austin had a part in the whole scenario
Spoofed email from a "cousin" with nonsense information, i mean its pretty clear that person doesnt actually say anything to correct you which is illogical to begin with as that was the initial concern.
Think you can dismiss that mail unless you're absolutely sure its from a cousin/family member.
The biggest problem you guys make is the assumption that austin is a nice guy based on personal experiences, but you're not with him 24/7 im assuming.
I mean ted bundy was also called a quiet nice neighbour.. it doesnt mean anything.
The only person that found some of the clothing and other items is Austin, even saying there wasnt something there before but all of a sudden there was.. "but be careful guys someone might still be around" aka dont go near that place cause i say so, like he doesnt want anyone to look more closely and stop searching there.
Austin is looking more and more like a prime suspect.
You are correct sir!
I concur. There are 5+ reasons Austin is suspect #1, from this video. The only other possibility is if they know the guilty party and are indirectly involved, or a victim also somehow. But most likely they are the culprit, whether purposeful or accidental.
Darsh well its not rocket science, the guy was doing drugs, meth wasnt it? Maybe they had an argument about money or drugs or Austin found something actually worth a few pennies.
Drugs changes a man.
DikkieDikism ...Money unmasks Men
I agree because Austin could have used the Kabar as a weapon. If you think about it he was one of the people that knew about the knife.
I'd stay away from those sketchy characters . You might get into something you'll be sorry for .
damn you hardcore
I bet he got sketched out on meth and is hiding from everybody
@@upcomingcloudrapperluca7645 well I suppose he at least deserves the benefit of any doubt! I hope they find him soon.
Austin seems fishy like he really might be the killer
This is my Theory. What happened if Nick and Austin was fighting and Austin got mad and murdered Nick, so Austin put all of Nick's clothing in different places that it will be harder solve the case
@@mr.scarecrow5439 But how would he clean the blood from his clothes?

@@Reallaydior so, you are saying he did it then?
scottuz! Basically.. just look how’s he acting that’s the first clue
That's my first suspicion too:> he's acting though:>
Sad he is still missing. You guys should Not have to explain yourselves.(Sponsership) You keep doing what your doing. I luv watching you guys. Just be Safe.Thank you for the Update. Keep up the Great Work!!!
Great to see a follow up on this , find this series so interesting!
Austin and Christina are.both involved... one is tryin to escape the other one try to put the blame one the other one....
If my friend went missing I’d search for them, Austin just seems a little suspicious?? Like somethings up with him? Like why does is seem like Austin doesn’t care
Exactly what I said. I'd look for the rest of my life.
Maybe it’s a case of why look when he already knows the answer? 🤷♀️
I'd say, trust Austin more then Kristina (I'm not sure if that was her name). The woman's information is really confusing. She is clearly hearing things secondhand or is trying to misdirect you. Austin has never given you reason to mistrust him. You've met him and you have a better idea of his general personality. Also the fact that the woman stopped responding, is strange.
I'll say this I checked the family Facebook not one of them even mention nicks disappearance
Wow, that's sad!
If one of my loved one disappeared I would have it all over social media and for Nicks family not to mention or seems like not bothered to look for him is sad but very suspicious.
From chills video the family as a website for him and a 10 000 reward
Ya like what’s up with that? This whole thing is just soooo effin weird! Like seriously everyone is acting like they already know what happened which could mean one of two things, 1. He’s alive and maybe got lost in life. Or 2. He’s dead and they all know more than they wanna admit. Either way this is a really frustrating case.
Wow, realy man, thats real cold, and suss !!?.
Y'all put up with way more bs than I'm willing to. You were legit trying to help a friend and catching so much heat over it. Keep up the good work.
This is the best channel when it comes to talking about cases, y'all have more information about these cases which most channels on youtube don't, keep up the good work. 👊
Why the hell do people care about sponsor ships.. This is their job, this too how they make money. Stop hating on that. Makes no sense to me.
The average person is half brain dead. They are ignorant to many things haha
I was just sitting on the sofa thinking"I wonder when Bob and Emma's next video will come out..." an bam! I got this notification 😁
Same! I dropped everything to watch it
His ‘cousin’ is super sketchy and contradicting herself
If its even his cousin really.
My theory is that nic and Austin worked for his uncle, and his uncle meet up with nic maybe over drugs or something like that. Nic’s uncle killed him, Austin kept digging into nic’s death trying to find out what happened to him, nic’s uncle did not want Austin to find out so he also killed Austin and took his phone and that’s why he kept saying I can’t meet up because it wasn’t him.
I think austin and the uncle did it.
youtube youtube maybe but whats the point of killing your friend?
@@yappledapple8639 Your right.Maybe something was wrong between them.Who knows? Maybe they got in a fight and it went further than if was suppose to.It would help if he would get on here and tell his side of the story, and answer some questions.
I think the uncle found out he was using and maybe he held some sort of grudge and payed Austin to kill him
Yapple Dapple well people kill family members and friends a lot and it’s horrible so I don’t see why Austen didn’t do it
This is a weird situation. I hope they find out what happened to this kid.
i love how you dont judge people because of their predicaments........ its nice to see people who are still decent... thank u, btw love your channel!
Could have been a drug deal gone wrong or his family was involved in it
Either Austin might be the killer, or someone is posing to be Austin, and they are both missing or dead
I think they're both missing/dead. I pray to God they're not dead but, the story sounds way too fishy not to be.
Metoo I think the family knows what happened
@@dreamartinez2679 I have a strong feeling they do as well.
i think this too. it seems to me that they are both gone
This is better than the show "Unsolved Mysteries".
Agreed!
truth
Robert Stack isn’t going to let you help solve a mystery for posting that
Get the creepy music and I'll agree with that statement. Unsolved mysteries used to have me scared of being home alone as a kid
Imagine if they collaborated with somebody like Rob Dyke.
Nic's family sounds sketch as hell tbh. Austin sounds like he's disappeared and not talking due to the family. That's pretty sad.
That's a question that remains unanswered for now, unfortunately.
A simple photo to show hes with them and safe would be proof enough but then didnt austin say he wasnt with them...
I looked up his full name and is says he lives in Portland Oregon. His address was updated a year ago same with his phone number. His previous address also seem to fit.
i literally just found this channel a few hours ago today and saw the other video about him. I like you guys so much i subscribed and bam you give me an update.
Bro, I have a habit of watching one video I end up watching more
Me too, I found them a couple of weeks ago and enjoy going back through their archive. So much to see! Really awesome commenters here too, far and above nearly any other youtube channel I follow.
@@sergestorms8044 its true lol i have been watching more than i probably should be XD

Hi guys, Nice to see you again! I remember those guys for sure! The last time I saw him, is when you guys left slab city...he was sitting on a bench in front of the stage, waving good-bye...From what I remember- I hope you guys, as well as your family are all doing fantastic. I have a lot of respect for you guys. You guys represent the good in people! P.S. I just looked-up integrity in the dictionary... Your pictures are there!
Firstly, the whole sponsorship argument was really unfair. I'm pleased you get sponsorship, as you said, the money helps you to go out and create amazing videos for us to see. Secondly, I'm so sad that nothing has come from everyone's searches for Nic. I know they were both pretty much homeless and not living in a safe environment, which really touches my heart as they seemed to be great guys and great friends to each other. I hate to think it, but I'm going with the meth (or maybe something else) theory. He could have been wandering around high, taking off various items of clothing as he went, then ended up at the beach for a swim, or even just walking too deep in, got in trouble and drowned. I'm holding out hope that he's ok somewhere, but either way, I hope his friends and family get the answers they need. Much love to you all from the UK xx
My gut feeling tells me "Austin."
If he didn't do it, he definitely knows who did.
I Hope Nic's loved ones get answers.
Hope someone finds him. 🙏💔
why wouldnt they just call the cops when they heard a scream at 2 am, like ??? this is all super confusing/conflicting info. hope you get an update soon on the two boys, his uncle and well, everything?? im invested in this now
oh fucc a basard they're street kids. street kids don't call the cops. they were living in an encampment and trust me as a formally homeless person you never want the cops at your camp cos they will be more interested in searching your stuff, evicting you, ticketing you or maybe arresting you. they don't take you seriously at all. trust me it would be perfectly normal for them to not even have thought to call the cops.
Allie Bee I'm unsure what you mean about "hobo life being important", but I certainly said nothing about anything being more important than a human life. to clarify, when I was homeless I heard potentially human & definitely human disturbances, screams, arguments etc during the night CONSTANTLY. you don't assume that someones life is in danger when you hear things you're used to hearing. people up at all hours, especially homeless people are often on meth or crack which makes them volatile and often theyre cursing at themselves or their belongings. it's a hard situation to comprehend if you havent lived it, but since most homeless people end up having to sleep near others (due to certain areas being known to be "ok" to sleep at ie no "no trespassing" signs, police don't move you on, available overhangs etc in case of rain, no sprinklers coming on in the middle of the night, relatively concealed for safety amongst other reasons) so you really do hear all manner of noises. it would get ridiculous even if your instinct was to call the police at every scream, you'd be doing it multiple times a week and probably get arrested for doing that. plus as I believe I mentioned, police dont take homeless people seriously. with something like "I heard a scream" especially, they have not much to go on and will be vastly more interested in the homeless caller, probably running them, searching, possibly moving them on, possibly implying they are paranoid or hearing things and assuming they are on drugs. also as the person above me mentioned, a lot of homeless people don't have phones or charged up phones to call the police. I know I didnt have one for about 5 or 6 years. you've also got to realise the fear involved. when I would hear screaming and stuff at night I would be frightened and sort of curl up and lay there hoping it didnt come closer. it's scary to hear that at night especially when you're sleeping out there. I'm really not sure where you got the idea that I have a disregard for human life from - if you knew me that would seem like a ridiculous assumption, I've actually got myself into a few awful situations trying to help people because I think we have a big societal problem with "turning the other way" and people have turned from me and ignored me when I needed help and i do try to treat people as I would like to be treated - but I assure you the actions or lack thereof don't stem from that, just from different assumptions automatically being made once you've become accustomed to a very different way of life.
Mrs Meowkins I'm not sure how so many homeless/formally homeless people came across this video, but I think we are commenting to add some insight or context that people who haven't experienced that might not have/know, like people not understanding why they didnt immediately call the police when they heard a scream, but someone who's lived that lifestyle might know the answer
I grew up out that way and it would take the cops hours and that's if they even do show up.
@@AllieBee00 You're really dumb. What good would that do? It must be nice to live in a house and be able to sit in judgement over people who don't have a home. You seem pretty stupid and stuck up. .-.
Seems that this Austin fellow is talking a lot of bullshit. I'm assuming you've only talked through text to him? You said he didn't, or wouldn't, meet with you when you were there last... Definitely suspicious!
They stated that they also reached out through snapchat.
Jealousy
Wtf I am currently in the Imperial County I have contacts in Slab City it’s a small valley eventually will find out what happened!
Flaks WSXHARPYSX25TH keep us posted!
Let us know
Keep us posted and stay safe
update when you and if you can
@Stephanie Logan he lives there 😑
I think that Nic does not want to be found for some reason, and that his best friend Austin knows where he is, and is respecting his wishes.
Good point
so.. about the live stream when they were in that store "taking stuff" I will come out and say I was one of the people that was asking "why are they taking stuff" at the time of that live stream I didn't realize that he had access to the place and for that I apologize. I hope nic is out there somewhere and just can't make/does not want to make contact with others either due to no phone or just wants to live in solitude. keep up the good work Emma and Bob. As always much love and be safe
You should never explain your sponsorships. You need money to run around and make these videos. It is your business and no one elses. I have ti wonder if Austin was threatened by someone. Nicks family is concerning to me. They are either suspicious or just weird. Praying they find Nick💙
Please be careful. You've gone above and beyond on this. I suggest talking to local authorities. Maybe something you have along with they may have might help connect the dots. Please keep posting and stay safe.
So weird, I live in imperial county. This was never publicized. People go missing near slab city all the time and no one seems to care. So sad
its 2:56 in the morning and i have class @ 8 .... sure i’ll watch this 22 min video of a mysterious disappearance while sitting in the dark home alone 🙂
Same but its 5:30 still dark tho
Rip sleep
Talk to David Paulides ... a total case that sounds eerily similar... no shoes, finding items in an already searched area?? I hope he is found ❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦
Found you by accident with the "Jeff" video...addicted ever since..you guys Rock! Be safe out there!! On a side note ...You have some Bangin' hair Mama!❤️❤️❤️❤️
I honestly believe Austin did it, or had something to do with it
You two are absolutely amazing. I couldnt imagine what it takes and what it would cost you to do the exploring. Im very new to your channel and even tho im Canadian, I'll continue to watch and support the both of you. What i have noticed since following you guys is there were alot of ppl in the live feeds that were very ignorant and plane out nasty. Im glad you two have decided not to continue the feeds as things were becoming much more sketchy. For your safety you guys did that right thing. Congratulations on your channels success keep exploring..
P.s. I need to order one of you sticker lables. I absolutely love it. And i hope ppl here in Canada will recognize your channel as i will get your name out here. 😀😀
Hello fellow Canadian! :)
@@garretthorsch8143.. these two are incredible.. I have watched so many of their videos. They very much have inspired me to explore myself. 😀
@@TheArea51Rider. Hey.. i have subscribed to your channel. Looking forward in seeing more of you content 😀
Another Canadian who loves this channel here. I’ve been watching Bob and Emma for a couple of years, since before they started appearing in front of the camera. I have a couple of channels to recommend to you (and Bob, if this offends you please remove my comment.) West Coast Trucker is one and Destination Adventure is the other. 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸
Ignore the "noise". EWU rules!!! Good update. Keep investigating. Thanks.
Remember that place you guys explored and you found the chest with the weird kids doll? There was something strange about that place.. Maybe worth another look?
Great videos. Keep up the amazing work! Shout out from Ireland 🙌
Yeah I agree
I suspect Christina is having an unofficial gag order imposed on Austin that is why Austin stop contacting you.
And also this Christina is dodgy as hell.
It would make sense if he drowned when he was high because he would have taken his shirt and boots off also he wouldn’t keep his wallet in the water with him
Like so that they can see
EDIT:also guys thanks for all the likes and support
But they said he screamed! 😑
Mystical _Gacha no they said that they heard a scream
Where was he supposed to be swimming? You cannot swim in the Salton Sea.
and if hes high i don't think he would be thinking about not getting his clothes wet
No because a methed out person doesnt give a shit if their clothes get wet.
I love these kind of videos from yall!!! The reason yall do such a great job at these kind of videos is that yall actually care about getting results. THANKS you guys for the awesome videos and the hard work!
The weird thing for me is it seems like the clothes and items scattered around are to throw people off, and the lack of blood, or anything is weird, sounds like he went missing on purpose, or was taken else where, and killed, also sounds like someone has bought Austin's silence wether or not he realizes it.
Respect you guys, we need more people like you in the world.You guys have a big heart.
Hope you find Nic and Austin.
I literally stared watching you guys a couple of days ago, and I am really into your videos. This case is very interesting to be honest. I hope deep down in my soul, that Nick is alive, he seems like such a down to earth kind of human.
Aside from people who know Nic personally, I dont think anyone can be happier with this particular update than I am. As an animal lover I just adore Nic. He seems like such a wonderful soul and I dont expect you to find someone I could be any more concerned about than him, although I wish for all the missing to be found of course.. I hate to hear that he was messing with that awful drug, but I just wish so much that he would somehow be OK. I dont have any idea what could have happened to him, but it doesnt seem like it was good. As for Austin and the cousin, I dont know how they could stop communication with someone trying to help, but I feel like someone else harmed him. As for Julians list, I didnt feel like it was that strange, except maybe the 3rd person part, but I dont feel like he did it. I would love to know what the cadaver dogs indicated. I pray for Nic to be OK, and even the kitties. Thank you guys SO much for this update. I wonder about it a lot. Love you guys.
That girl's hair tho... 😍
Lie detector test should of been ordered. On Austin.
@@maus0liam ^ They cant be used in the court of law 99% of the time
But it would answer some questions; mainly where he is and what happened to him.
it's so sad he's missing..what's almost sadder is it seems LE (law enforcement) isn't even looking for him. I couldn't imagine knowing that if I came up missing nobody would even care. I hope he's found safe. ♥
"we liked Nick"" Nick WAS a good guy" why do y'all keep talking about him in the past tense? He is missing. Y'all are talking like you already know he is dead?
They talked about that in their last video I think.
Cjng whacked his drug mule ass
after a certain amount of time missing, even the police start considering the possibility that someone is dead. get over it
first time seeing this channel and i don't regret it
Me too. I stumbled upon this today and this is very interesting. I pray they find Nic soon
me too
Wow I remember watching your live stream video way last year, I had no idea I was watching the ewu channel back then! Thought I'd only found you during covid lockdown in the UK!
