Thomas Brown went missing. Thanksgiving eve, 2016

# data[].attributes.body
Tom brown on Thanksgiving eve, went missing. He didn't come home after hanging out with some friends. Tom was a honest boy, he always communicated where he was, and if he were to be late coming home, he could say he'll be home in 5 minutes, he will be home in about 5 minutes.

Tom was a popular, known kid in Canadian High School/Canadian. He was kind, strong, creative and fun! He was in the football team, and in the Theatre class with multiple if not all his friends. He was respectful to his parents, always coming home at curfew, if he's going to be late he said so and by how long exactly. If he said "Ill be home in 5 minutes" he would be home in 5 minutes or less. He had a route around town, and everyone knew about this route so they tend to call it "Tom's Loop". He meant nothing bad or harmful to anyone. Couldn't hurt a fly.

On Thanksgiving eve, Tom and his friends wanted to hang out together for a while going home for the night. Walking around town late at night, just chilling. Not breaking laws, not doing anything suspesous, nothing. They eventally break up and start heading home. A few hours later Tom's brother, woke up and noticed Tom isn't home. He immitdiatly knew somthing is wrong, so he woke up his mother. "Mom! It's 3 am and Tom isn't home. We didn't get a call, text, anything. Im going out to look for him. the rest of his family looked around town for about a hour 1/2 with many friends they contacted about Tom not being home. They looked and looked and couldn't find Tom's car. A red Derango.

Tom has gone missing and no one has seen any sign of Tom. Tom's mother contacts police to report a missing person. The Police looked all around town and combed the county side in their cars and still nothing. Then they use a helicopter to look again, farther out and faster. They find Tom's Derango! It's empty. The Derango is under a tree, parked. Not crashed at all, in good shape. Dirty, but good. They immitiatly... take it back to Tom's family. Weird. After one day, they take it back to search it for evidence or any clues about tom. They do find a blood smear on the dash below the wheel and a bullet shell.

Tom brown has been missing for many months now, and the only scape of evidence is his car and some video feed of him going up and down a street from a gas station. Not much. At this point, police brought in a dog from gerorgia to sniff out Tom's body. They find a partically buried (by nature) backpack a few miles away from where they find the Durango. It's been here for a long time. They search the backpack and find nothing to do with tom's dissapearance. They tried tracking his phone but got also nothing. Police a questioning many many people about tom. His Family, his friends, the highschool, you name it. They do come across that he might be gay, and might be hiding somewhere. They possibly think that Tom ran awa with a older man to Colorado.

Tom's Mother, Penny hires a Private investigator to try to get this case solved faster.She is losing faith in the ploice because they aren't doing a whole lot. In fact, she is losing trust in them because they are skrewing around with rumors and not facts.

In this case, the police are being useless. They are irrtarigating people, trying to scare them to admit to somthing useful or keep from hiding anything. The Sherrif, Officer Lewis is focused on the rumor that Tom ran away to Colorado with a older man in a sexual relationship, or that he is involved with a Homosexual sex ring. They aren't doing their jobs correctly. Putting evidence back with the family way too soon, following people for months, not getting anywhere within 2 years of Toms dissapearace. Everyone is now thinking Officer Lewis is involved with Tom's disappearnce because he is doing more harm than good. He is not fully answering questions given to him about tom, etc. He did scold Tom and his friends when they were out and about downtown walking, late at night. Not listening to anyone who claims to have information about tom, and only getting mad at the private invesigator for making more pogress than him. Clyne (the Invesitgator Penny hired) suspects that Officer Lewis is hiding something about tom. They have a cover-up set up.

Police finnally took Polygraph tests from people and only found out minimal things, but one. Penny, Tom's mother, didn't pass her test. Everyone else did, but her. They talked to her, told her she failed, didn't say which question she failed. She immidiotly thinks its the question, "Are you currently communicating with tom?" because she does send him text messages, with updates and prayer he comes home.

No one could find Tom at this point, and now looking about info they should know about. There could possibly be a key there missing. They asked the parents "If Tom isn't with us anymore, what do you think happend to him?" Penny, she answered almsot too quickley mentioning suiside. Susiside is know with their family and not a new branch to their tree. They've had multiple family members who were successful. She says that he possibly had a depressive episode while on his way home and may have committed suside. Police did not take this lightly purely of how fast and detailed she answer was. Alothough this was a possiblily, at this time, they didn't have any proof. until a few months later, they found his phone and noticed on his phone he had googled the suiside hotline, but never actually called them.

Hip hip horray! They found Tom's phone! But, it's in perfet shape and seems to be planted evidence. If it wasn't they would've found it ;ong time ago along with the Durango. Police searched his phone and found precticcally found nothing other than the suiside hotline on his google history.

Officer Lewis had a stange relation to the case because normally the sheriff has little to do with cases, and he was almost overly into this case. He had some strange answers to his questions and becoming more and more suspecting about toms case. He is refusing to take a polygraph test, for anxiety, he did scold him that night, and is seeming to hide something. He is getting know-where with the case 2 years in, and only looking into ridiculas rumors that are obviously not true. Such as Tom was taken by a biker gang, he ran away with a older man to colorando ina homosexual relationship, tom was human-trafficed, not really looking at evidence and turning back evidence too early where it could be contaminated and missing up everything. At the end of the Podcast, he was asked if he is anything to do with Toms dissapearance, and his voice got higher, and was stuttering more, acting.. different.

A police officer who like to be out into the country side found Tom's skull! Police looked at it and found again, practically nothing other than the fact that the skull belonged to Tom Brown. At least at this point, we know that tom is gone. Along with the skull was a few bones, but not enough of his body was enough to tell what exactly happend to him, his time or cause og death. Investigator Clyde has came up with a story of what happend to tom, and so far, personally, makes the most amount of sense. He says that Tom was drving home and realized that he still had 20 minutes to be home, so he met up with some friends at the school football feild parking lot. They were playing around and someone eventually pulled at a armed gun, not knowing it was loaded, and was playing around with it and accidentally shot tom, instantly killing him. This kid was freaking out, calling a adult or their parent or toms parents, and the adult they contected called the police. After sharing this story, both Officer Lewis and Penny started acting different.

I fully beleive in Clyde story. I think that one of Tom's friends accidentally shot tom and panicked and called Penny, she called Police, Officer Lewis and Officer Lewish told her to cover it up. I think that Officer lewis relased evidence too early because he already knew what happend, he threw the phone into the feild right before more police came to look for possible evidence. I don't know which of his friends accidentally shot him but I do know that no one intentally was trying to hurt tom. There isn't a killer on the loose, I believe that someone now is tramuatized by their own actions and personally taking fulll action of what they did. They are jsut not telling police.
