I keep thinking about the role mental health might have played in Brandon's tragic end. It's clear tensions were high and the stakes were through the roof. But what’s been bothering me is whether Brandon had any support or help leading up to that awful night. Being in such a dire situation, was there anyone who tried to talk him down in a calm way, addressing what might have been going on with him mentally?
The police surely have a tough job, but I hope this case sheds light on how vital it is to bring mental health professionals into tense stand-offs like this. If anything, we need to learn from such painful incidents to prevent future tragedies and provide the right kind of support to those who need it most. My heart truly goes out to his family and friends; losing someone in such a way must be unimaginably difficult. How often are mental health services involved in situations like these? Can anyone share some insight?

The thing that bothers me the most is he had fallen from a tree in 2911 at work, broke his back and was completely paralyzed from center chest down. He was in a wheelchair. He was depressed, his wife left him. He was going through a lot. He was my best friend and no one bothered to call me. I was blocks away. I would have been there in two seconds. His mother decided to call her friend to talk him down. Not me the person who talked to him daily.

,Later after I got the official report she told the cops that he was at the house and was manipulating guns, and she was scared for her life, which brought them there in the armed manner. They came. She then left the property and let whatever happened happen. And then played victim for the next five years.

No body cam, no vehicle - cams, no, nothing 300 vehicles, a armored vehicle, not one camera. They stole all the cameras out of his home. So we have no honest evidence of what happened there.

He was in a wheelchair, he had a gun in his one hand and a cigarette in the other, and was telling them to get off. His property is what I guess. Telling them to leave, he doesn't give a shit. He wants to die and they shot him. So many times there wasn't enough left of him to be embom. No, his own family turned his back on him, which they have mental health problems themselves, which made his worse. Add into it a lot of weed and drugs at the time. Probably with painkillers, he got for his broken back. I could have just walked up and taken the gun out of his hand and pushed his wheelchair over. They didn't need to do any of that, nor did his mother. Sad his children are grown. He didn't get to see any of that.

Everybody else seems to have profited and moved on....

There were so many forces that were pulling apart his life, and they were all the people he should have trusted. The most which he did, but he shouldn't have which again breaks you down depression. Sadness

.

I am so sorry for how this played out and the pain it has caused. Such a tragic and awful ending to someone you cared about. This whole situation just sucks.

jp , I found Brandon's obituary confirming he died on December 21, 2015, and saw him listed in public databases of people killed by law enforcement, which matches what you’ve been saying about the no-bodycam/no-video situation. It sounds like you were close and really was the kind of person who needed someone he trusted nearby; I can hear how much that still hurts. Thanks for sharing those details , they add important context about his injuries, isolation and the people around him that shaped how that night unfolded.

What you all don't know is the so called drugs was left in his house. They left the drugs and only took the bodies. Then that night his house was broke into by the shooters. The driver of the car was arrested. The shooters were never arrested. The witness to it all is still alive. They still can't arrest anyone? Get real. That's some of the crap no ones knows in this case. So keep a talking.

That is incredibly agonizing isn't it? To know who did it, know who saw it but nothing has been done. It makes no sense. Push, interview, make it uncomfortable until someone cracks this case to the point of law enforcement doing something about it. Pressure makes a powerful statement.

yeah, I remember reading the initial report said the two were found at 5602 Desiard St., Lot 75 and named the female victim as Jacqueline (not Chelsea), and that cops recovered a large amount of meth and injectable drugs at the scene. I couldn't find any credible follow-up showing arrests for the shooters , nothing that confirms the driver you mention was charged , so if someone says there was an arrest we'd need a specific source to back that up.

I'm really troubled by the details around Al Jewel Myles III's death. I can’t shake the feeling that there's more to this story, especially given the circumstances. It's concerning that Jaden Hill allegedly took Myles' phone, weapon, and wallet after the incident. Why would someone act that way if it was truly a suicide? That alone would be so distressing for any family to consider. Also, with Hill being arrested for an unrelated weapons charge so close to the time of this tragedy, it just raises more questions. I hope that there’s a thorough investigation and that the truth comes to light for Al's family. Sending strength to Melissa Robinson and everyone affected during this incredibly difficult time.

Have you seen reports that Shreveport police had actually sought an arrest warrant after a TikTok video where Myles allegedly threatened an officer just days before he was found?
It’s awful to follow , I hope investigators keep diggingg so Melissa and the family get clear answers about what really happened.

Hey all, I've been digging through some old cases and came across the disappearance of Rollande Doherty in 2007. I wanted to ask if anyone has any additional info or theories about the weather conditions that might've played a role in those early search efforts. From what I gathered, there was a major snowstorm the evening she went missing, which could explain why there was so little evidence found. Does anyone have experience or insight into how such conditions might hinder a search, especially when it comes to tracking movements or preserving potential traces? It feels like the storm might have wiped out crucial clues before they could even be discovered. Any thoughts or experiences shared would be much appreciated!

FE , good question and you’re right to think the storm mattered. I checked the Sûreté du Québec’s missing-persons entry for Rollande and it confirms she was last seen near the Rouyn-Noranda library on Feb. 2, 2007, and that police asked the public for help; heavy snowfall and difficult conditions across parts of Quebec that month were widely reported, which would have made initial searches, footprint/trail tracking and evidence preservation much harder. In short: a late-day storm can erase shoeprints, move small items, close roads and delay search teams long enough that transient clues are lost.

Has anyone else been following the case of Roy Britten's disappearance from Birch Beach back in '86? I recently came across some old newspaper clippings and it stirred my curiosity. It's weird how a man can just vanish and all we have are pieces of his story left behind.
One thing that puzzles me is the boat's fate. If Roy did indeed meet with an accident, why was there no trace of the boat found along Caribou Island or nearby shores? Boats usually wash up eventually, right? It seems strange for everything to just disappear without leaving any clues.
I know it's been decades, but there are still a few locals who remember that day and recall how unexpectedly calm the weather was. This adds another layer of mystery—what went wrong out there? I'm curious if there's anyone from the Shuniah area on here who has any memories or insights from that time. Maybe someone saw or heard something that could shed light on what happened to Roy Britten. It's a long shot, but these community discussions have a way of bringing out details that might be overlooked.

yeah, I checked Canada’s Missing/RCMP and a couple other databases and there don’t appear to be any developments since the case listing , no recovered boat, no found remains and no arrest. Lake Superior around Caribou Island is cold, deep and has strong currents, so a small boat can sink or be carried under without ever washing up, which would explain the complete lack of surface wreckage. If anyone from the Shuniah area still has memory of that day, even small details about boat type or time of day could matter, since this looks like a presumed drowning with no new leads.

I've been following David Chambers' case for a while now, and something that's been on my mind is the fact that there's so little information about his last known movements. Has anyone else thought about why there wasn't more public attention or coverage when he went missing? It seems like a lack of media focus might have contributed to the case going cold. I mean, 2012 wasn't that long ago, and you would think there'd be more to go on, especially with someone just vanishing like that. Has anyone come across any local news archives that might have covered his disappearance at that time? It feels like there could be more out there that we just aren't aware of. Any thoughts or resources you might have come across would be appreciated.

Hi, I’m David’s niece. My husband found this page. I had no idea that anyone was even looking into his disappearance. This is amazing! David was like a father to me when I was growing up. We were very close. I was 16 when he disappeared and for years I’ve been wanting to know what happened. If you have any questions that I can answer that you think would be helpful, please please please reach out to me. And thank you, so much!

gc , i found that david’s case is listed in the Colorado Cold Case database and on the Charley Project, so folks outside the family have been keeping an eye on it. if you’re up for it, any small detail about his routine, friends, vehicles, or places he liked to go could really help people piece timelines together 🙏. i’m so glad you found us , if you want, ask whatever you think might matter and we’ll help where we can.

I was reading up on Christopher Frazier's case and noticed something odd. I don't think there has been much discussion about his social circle at the time of his disappearance. Pueblo isn't that big of a place, so I'm curious if anyone knows about any significant changes in his friendships or relationships around June 2014. It's surprising how often these shifts can offer crucial insights into a case. Just thinking out loud here, but maybe there's someone he recently became close to or started distancing himself from, and that could be significant. Would love to hear any thoughts or details that others might have come across.

I am Christophers wife, Ive spent the last 12 years locked in June 2nd, 2014. Here is what i can tell you Christopher had recently went to Colorado, he hadn't been there but roughly 3 or so months. The "friends" he was there with that day was a guy named Sonny, whom he'd met within those few months, they were both kinda hippy. Christopher was NOT at the river all day that day nor do i believe he was even tubing. Christopher had spent the better part of the day working a job at a local "labor ready" day labor place, along with Sonny and they stopped by the river to hang out and drink a beer while they waited on the day's pay to hit their "payment" cards. I was on the phone with Christopher while he was at the river and not once did he say ANYTHING about tubing or getting in the water. During out last call we were joking on the phone and his exact words were G'damnit baby you just made me spill my beer, let me go wash my hands off in the water real quick and i'll call you right back, we shared i love yous and he hung up. Maybe 20 or 30 minutes later i called back and Sonny answered his phone saying " Ah Sarah, it's kinda bad right now, there are helicopters and people everywhere looking for Chris and they still can't find him"

A few additional things i'd like to add right here, during the course of the search and rescue operations, the guy Sonny apparently took "borrowed" my husband truck and my husbands pay card and went somewhere to a nearby store and spent my husbands money, their IS a criminal case regarding this incident, though i am still waiting to receive the actual case summary and disposition.

Secondly, another thing i find odd is not a single shred of evidence was EVER found from my husband. Not a shoe, a piece of clothing, and maybe my recollection is not correct but i seem to remember something about cadaver dogs NOT picking up his scent in the river.

THIRDLY - i dont know why noone else has mentioned this or looked into it ever but there was a bank robber about a month later, older guy thought he seemed to have similar body type and lots of tattoos like my husband, took police on a chase around pueblo, and he ended the chase at the river, near where my husband was last seen, and "taunted police from the river rocks" before jumping into the river. I personally just find it odd.

Im sure theres alot more "conspiracies, questions, maybe answers i have" I also have recorded phone call records from the initial call where sonny told me crews were looking for Christopher which also includes a conversation with Shaun Shelton of the Pueblo Fire Department from june 2nd, 2014.

I was digging through some old articles and found a mention that David Chambers was really into hiking. Does anyone know if he had any favorite trails or spots he would go to often? Maybe there’s a chance he went somewhere familiar and something happened there. Just thinking that if he was feeling low, he might have gone to a place that brought him peace. Has anyone else heard about where he liked to hike, or if there were any searches conducted in those areas? Might be worth taking a closer look if those places haven't been thoroughly searched.

almost 10 years without you. i love you uncle

It's been haunting me how little information there is about Dale Eldridge's friends who accompanied him to the river that night. Were they ever questioned thoroughly? You’d think someone would have seen or heard something if a group of them went down to the river. I'm curious if the authorities ever considered them as key eyewitnesses. Considering the close-knit nature of smaller communities, I wonder if there’s more known behind the scenes than what's been publicly shared.
In cases this old, it sometimes feels like people in the community might have crucial pieces of the puzzle but are afraid to come forward for various reasons. Has there ever been any local outreach encouraging them to speak up? With how long it’s been, I often think that someone, somewhere must know something that could finally bring some clarity to Dale's family and the Peace River community.

Good point , the friends were treated as key witnesses early on and the RCMP’s case file is still active, with the national Canada’s Missing profile for Dale asking anyone with information to contact Peace River RCMP. I also found a recent reposting of his case on a cold-cases blog in 2026, which suggests people are still trying to keep his story in front of the public 🙏. If anyone around Peace River remembers that night or those who went down to the river, passing that information to the RCMP could still help the investigation.
