    Not to be insensitive here, but at what point does this get un-stickied? I mean the word is out there, I don't think there is anything more the kind souls of this board can do.

    Sad and tragic, but what more can we do being strangers on a message board? The missing guy wasn't even a member here, was he?

    Again, I don't mean to offend anyone, but I feel as though this tough question needs to be asked.

    Because this comforts Alexis and Brian's father.... they do come here and check time to time.

    We can only hope that some anonymous tippers will come here.

    So far, no luck.

    I still say more pressure needs to be exterted on the friends, since they were the last ones to see Brian.

    Sorry. I still stand on that one.

    A woman, who lived just 15 minutes away from here, was reported missing from her husband.

    He was the last person to see her... crying on the news and all that.

    Turned out he strangled her and chopped her up. You all probably have seen him on the news.

    So close to my home.

    My point is.... need to keep questioning those two friends. I have yet seen them coming forward.

    Anyway.... this thread stays up.

    For the sake of Brian's friends and family.

    That's sad.

    I hope they will identify whose body it is so a family can have a proper closure.

    :(

    I was beginning to wonder for a while what ever happened to him and if they found him...really sucks, and really sad too.

    I couldn't find the update on that body... how do you know it wasn't Brian?

    I'd be very glad if it wasn't... gives us a hope that he's still alive....

    Oh, I don't. Just figured something would have been posted here if it was.

    Yet somebody else's family found out that it's their loved one, but it's okay because it's not Brian?

    Way to be insensitive.

    That was not my implication at all, sorry it came out that way.

    I do not wish it to be anyone else, nor do I wish it for to be Brian.

    It is a difficult time for anyone when a situtation like that comes up.

    IamMine....you speak as though you personally know Brian and his family. Is that true?

    No, I don't.

    I had spoken with his father through email for a while, and then with his girlfriend, Alexis from time to time.

    But no, I don't know them personally.

    I just feel very emotional about our missing Pearl Jam fan - Pearl Jam Community is like a family, you know.

    Today on the local news, they had a teaser during the 5 PM news for a story coming up at 5:30.

    "A body had been found in a Big 10 university. Could this be the body of a missing student? Find out more at 5:30."

    It was NOT Brian, in fact it was a Purdue University student.


    Damn teasers. :mad:

    Here's the story if anyone's interested. I'm sure I wasn't the only one who thought of Brian. They did show this guy's picture and it wasn't one of the several we've seen of Brian, but for some reason, Brian came to mind... (Part of me thinks they planned it that way, and if that's the case, then they need a new guy to write their teasers.)

    It's now officially been one year.

    Alexis and Brian's family still haven't given up hope. There was a remembrance ceremony outside the Ugly Tuna Saloona (the bar where Brian was last seen) earlier today. I didn't know about it, so I didn't go, but local news media was there.

    I guess Alexis and Randy (his dad) and probably other people all had a chance to speak at a microphone.

    The cameras were filming Randy and managed to pick up the white shirt he had on. It had a red stripe near the top with the words "MISSING PEARL JAM FAN" at the top.
