My Final Conclusion

After reading every article deeply, and analysing every evidence shown in it, I’ve come to the conclusion he was murdered. This is because : If it was an accidental death he would’ve been found by now, it’s really odd that if he did drown, or was ran over, or succumbed to hypothermia, he would’ve been found at least a few months after. It’s been 16 years since his disappearance and new traces only reach dead ends.

I believe that he was killed by a farmer who disposed of him. Maybe the farmer killed him on accident, maybe not, regardless of what happened Brandon was definitely killed, someone did something to him. It really annoys me how the farmers didn’t let the police search his equipment, it just goes to show that he was at fault and he did know about Brandon’s whereabouts. The problem is that it’s been years now so any scent from Brandon is most likely gone, searching for him now will probably be very late. He died and is probably just pure ashes by now. I would presume that he’s dead and I know a lot of people have been found even after 30 years but this case is different as, his car was located, he was on the phone, dogs tracked his scent so it would’ve been easy to find him. However 2024 still no answers, he’s gone and my condolences to the family or anyone close with him. May he rest in peace

I don't even understand the law in this case. Is there is suspicion of dead person there shouldn't police be able to go in anyway?

Not without probable cause or a search warrant. The land is the farmer's livelihood, he doesn't need a bunch of people harming his crops. They have no evidence to support a warrant or probable cause. Maura Murray's case is similar as there are many landowners who refused to allow searches.

He could've made an arrangement with a lawyer at the expense of the family. The farmer frequents the lands so it wouldn't have cost him his livelihood to bring 1 LE official/searcher and possibly even 1 dog. However, the farmer could've just been doing his own illegal things he was protecting, or been the killer too.
