Body of missing high school student found but his death remains a mystery

In this episode of Crime Watch Daily Updates: Eighteen-year-old Thomas Brown was a big fish in the little town of Canadian, Texas. He was a two-time state football champion and class president at his high school with lots of friends.

On Nov. 23, 2016, the night before Thanksgiving, Thomas met up with some friends and was seen later that evening filling up his car with gas.

But when he missed curfew and wasn’t answering his phone — his family became worried and called the Sheriff’s office.

Thomas’ car was eventually located near a water treatment plant, but he was nowhere to be found. Investigators say they found a tiny drop of blood inside the car, but other than that there are NO leads.

In January 2019, human remains were found and positively identified as Thomas.

A few months later in August the Texas Attorney General’s Office suspended the investigation into his death, claiming there was “no viable evidence” regarding foul play in Thomas’ death. But the family and Private investigators, disagree and say Thomas was murdered.

Let’s take a look back at the case of a popular high school student whose death continues to be a mystery.
