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.

That sheriff is a clown.
"Pulling out the parking lot"? What happened to "of"? "Pulling out of the parking lot"? English just keeps changing.
Prayers to this family..pray they get answers. My heart goes out to them
So if someone was driving the vehicle around did they not check the vehicle for foreign fingerprints or DNA. Did they even check for that.
It's "rest assured," with a "d". Come on. Speak English like you went to school.
The thumbnail says the body was found, but not in this video.
This guy sounds like a button up, stand up kid who wouldn’t just leave. Totally ridiculous how cops treat kids and teens as just “run always” or suicide.
It really bothers me every time I see stories like this and people say things like “ he is 18” it’s not uncommon to miss curfew . ALL kids are NOT the same . That mother knew something was wrong !! It’s like the police don’t take it seriously when they have “ missing teens “ until it’s too late 😞 🙏🏾
The brother needs to run for Sheriff and blow this wide open. That Sheriff seems Shakey. He seems involved.
Time for rhe family to call Adventures With Purpose to search that lake for a body 💔
15:03, this sheriff is young and certainly very unexperienced. If this had been made public, there rwould have been information, maybe somebody who's had a similar experience but was lucky, somebody who saw something, heard something etc…As a twist, maybe I watched to many movies but maybe it's the Sheriff .
its a small town of 2500 lie detect them all if you believe its one of them
Any chance there's a pedo coach/priest or something like that? The way the sheriff insists on not showing evidence to simply quote: "keep it private" makes it sound like the kid's case would expose someone else with greater local authority/social position.
Sheriff's saying he thinks the kids alive, but somebody knows something and needs to come forward? Protecting evidence at all costs to make sure he has something to pin the suspect which he doesn't have? Weirdo.
Maybe the sheriff needs to account for his activities that night!
SAD THAT WE HAVE LOTS OF CRIMINALS COMING ACROSS OUR FKING BORDERS
IS SAY THAT THELIS SHERIFF WROTE THE KID OFF AS A SUICIDE…. A BACK PACK JUST 4MILES MEANS ….. NOT MUCH AREA WAS COVERED LOOKING FOR A TEEN WHO IS ON FOOT
SOMEONE WHO KNOWS THE AREA
PATIENCE
I hope the mother find answers do feel like Thomas was against his will something is off about the sheriff
16:51 "it has been hard. Not being able to tell the family things that I'd like to tell them, but that doesn't mean I'm hiding anything".
Stupid POS contradicted himself, showing he is in fact, just another liar.
Not sure if this has anything to do with the case but a father of one of the kids he drove around with that night committed suicide less than a week after his remains were found. A friend of a friend lives there and said they have heard wild things surrounding this case. He deserves justice.
Why does this say “ body found”?
Has anyone looked on the "Way Back Machine" at online hookup sites in that area on that date? Not saying he was a bad person, but it shows who was temporarily in town possibly…
