TARGET(S) LOCATED While Searching for Former Mayor Ralph Brown (Day 5) Missing Cold Case Documentary

2 жыл бұрын

Cold case documentary of former mayor Ralph Brown, missing from Cornelius, Oregon, since May 16, suffers from dementia and has not had his memory or heart medication since he left his home.
Over 100 days have passed now since 76-year-old Ralph Brown went missing!
Today we follow up on locations we spotted from our plane ride on our Day 4 search to see what we are missing and if we can find Ralph.
His daughter, Laurie Saunders, said during a news conference that she spoke with her father the night he went missing shortly after 9pm and that he wasn’t sure exactly where he was.
He told her he was “literally in the bushes,” and that he might be near a golf course, but couldn’t give her more specific details. He also asked if people were out looking for him.
She told him to wait for a call from his son, who was going to go out and find him, but Brown didn’t answer the phone after that. And nobody has been able to find him, even though hundreds of people out there helping with the search.
This series documents Adventures With Purpose's multi-day search for Ralph.

Brown is 76 years old, about 5-foot-10, with white hair and blue eyes. He's also missing the tip of his index finger.
His car is a dark blue, 2014 Nissan Sentra with Oregon plates.
Anyone who sees him or his car is asked to call the Washington County Sheriff’s Office at 503-629-0111
There have been a few sightings reported, but none were substantiated, said Daryle Brown, Ralph Brown’s son.
Daryle said his parents were in their home on May 16 when Brown stood up and said he was going to his “other house.”
Ralph has early-onset Alzheimer’s symptoms, which leads to confusion. He no longer has a driver’s license and has not driven a car in more than a year, Daryle said.
He drove away from the home in the 600 block of South 12th Avenue in Cornelius, Oregon.
There have been no location pings on his phone after 10:25pm that evening, and no communication from Brown in the time since he’s been missing.
There have also been no charges to his credit card.
More than 200 volunteers are still helping in the search, including former students, friends, and even strangers.
Hug the ones you love for you never know when it might be the last time you see them.
We are humbled by the opportunity all of you have given us to help in the search for answers as to what happened to Ralph.
The AWP Movement would not be possible without your support, helping us travel the US offering our services for FREE to families searching for their lost loved ones... Thank you!

Would that people like this were glorified, instead of someone who puts a ball through a net, or appears on the big screen. If our lives are measured by the impact that we have on our fellow man, then this work, these men and women, are to be humbly and eternally treasured. May God, in His mercy and grace bring unto you and yours tenfold blessings for that which you do. You, Sirs, are simply a gift beyond measure

A detective friend has said that many missing people are found by hunters in the fall...hopefully Ralph will be one of them. Your woman in the pink Chevy was found in a fairly small clump of brush, near a highway, so I hope you can do an aerial search for Ralph again when the leaves have fallen, and more ground is visible. Thank you, guys, again. So many have forgotten about Ralph. This keeps him in the public's consciousness in case someone notices something.

17:00 what an awesome officer/sheriff. People are so quick to hate them for the smallest things or remarks, but I felt it was nice to see him on the water, checking on you guys, offering you gas, and generally caring for everything you're doing. You mentioned that it seemed odd that he didn't know Ralph was still missing, but I think that's easy to say. Police deal with soooooooooo many cases of all kinds and many false cases on top of it. They also have their normal lives on top of all of that too. I think he does want Ralph found, but he just has many other cases on his mind, especially ones that seem like they are closer to being solved. This may sound bad too, but a case where someone was or is harming others too I expect would be in their mind most, while cases like Ralph's may get set aside a tiny bit more. He mentioned finding the car being the most important part because it's exactly that at this point, there's nothing really to work with anymore other than just searching every possibility with hopes that he's found. If they had the car's location, the case would be very high priority and have much more attention. Just wanted to say all that because cops do great work, but are hated more now than ever, sadly.

The reality of what you are doing is pretty incredible. Whether it’s cleaning the environment or finding a missing person there is no time wasted . You can tell the family and law enforcement that they can cross off certain locations, which in my opinion is making the search area that much smaller . You guys are so thorough and use such good technology it’s incredible. I wonder if you could find out where Ralph’s phone pinged prior to the last ping . If foul play was involved the perpetrator may have taken his phone from the location and used it later to ring someone to pick him / them up . It really is amazing what you and your team do .

You are doing a great job of eliminating the water spots. What I keep thinking about is, he's in the car and confused. He could have drove down any old dirt road or path, maybe tried to turn around and got too far on the edge and went down an embankment or just beyond the road into trees. Stuck and confused, if he couldn't get back out of the car, or even if he did, he could have wandered in the trees and got lost further. Is there a group looking at all the roads along the cell phone pinging area? We had a case of a woman on a freeway off ramp, go over a little hump and off the ramp and into a small holding pond of water, right there on the freeway. They found her the next day, but she drowned in that small body of water. It's so easy to just pass by someplace and not notice anything. Thank you for the update on the search.

What a sad story. I can't imagine knowing your Dad was lost out there, but couldn't find him. Couldn't they ping his last location? That would also be helpful for the search? My heart goes out to his children.

I don’t know what I would do if my dad just disappeared. It does worry me bc my grandpa had Alzheimer’s. The last ping for Ralph’s phone was at the boat ramp they mentioned to the officer at around 17:30 in the video

Great Job guys, even though you not successful this time, but you will be soon. Just a suggestion, please try and check those ponds / farm dams as we call it in South Africa. Their is always a way in some way or another. This will also give the farmer a nice indication that his dams are also clear. Maybe in the USA its different with trespassing, however in SA it is nothing new. I also have another suggestion in terms of your shirts on the back, maybe add an small logo of Angel of all the souls you manage to locate, and a tick mark of all the cars you successfully taken out. That said, you guys are SUPER AWESOME. Lots of Respect from South Africa.

Really appreciate the work you guys do. Asked for a hoodie from you guys from my wife for Christmas. However, if you guys ever come across Philadelphia by any chance, their is a really famous missing person case here that nobody seems to know what happened. Danielle Imbo and Richard Petrone Jr Went missing in Philadelphia in 2005 and were last seen getting in their 2001 Dodge Ram Pickup and we’re never seen/heard from again. They had just comeback from a bar and it was expected one if not both were intoxicated. Some people expect they were the victim for a murder for hire, but the truck was never found. Rivers/lakes have been checked, but I’m not sure ti what extent. This case has been featured on Investigation Discovers “Disappeared”. Because they expect the truck is in the water somewhere, seemed like a good case.

While the presence of a guard rail is helpful, vehicles can easily become airborne and go over railings. It doesn't matter the height, in an accident they can launch surprising heights. While the presence of a guardrail might make the location less likely, the location should remain on the list to check. Since local LE doesn't seem to know he is still missing (like,WTF?!?!), perhaps checking the tow yards in a 100 mile radius for the car? Check CarFax to see if the car was salvaged?

To be fair, that was a Yamhill County Deputy and Ralph is not their case. He is a Washington County case, even though most of his drive that was traced was in Yamhill County. It is still upsetting to run into any law enforcement and have them not know Ralph is still missing. I have run into a few too many who don't know. That aside, I do believe investigators when they ensure me that any check of his plate or vin will alert both the checker and the police. There is a U.S. Marshall who approached me at the Yamhill County Fair (at the Ralph Booth I ran) who promised me that he was also manually checking the databases for Ralph's car each week. It's really hard for a car to just be off road in Yamhill County because the county is mostly private property. That's why we are so thankful AWP has spent so much time looking for him in waterways.

When your lost in the dark and take a side road not knowing it leads down to a lake, you can easily drive in by accident. We were fortunate in the 1980’s. Halloween in New England it’s extremely dark out and we did just that. I screamed lake and driver slammed on breaks inches away from the lake. We never saw it. Thankfully we were able to slowly back up the incline and out. I wish they would put up gates on all theses entry ways to lakes from roads or at least speed bumps and glow in dark signs. Praying they find him alive
