I saw this originally posted on the outdoor board, but didn't generate much discussion. Thought I'd try here to get him more exposure.

He also sent a Snapchat photo to a high school friend in San Antonio at 3.03am - the picture depicted a small bridge over a drainage ditch within a few hundred feet of the entrance to his apartment complex.

Occam's razor says he tried to cross the bridge, fell into the ditch and was injured or killed instantly. Some heavy rainfall might've washed his body away.

We haven't any meaningful rainfall here in Corpus since that happened.

Reminds me of the Jason Landry case. College student just disappears without a trace under strange circumstances. Sounds to me like someone took him.

He was out walking a puppy. Is the puppy missing too?

If this is the same on from a month or so ago, the dog came back without him.

I've been following this since he went missing. Glad it's finally getting some more eyes on it. But at this point, I've got very little hope.

It's such a strange situation.

Sad part is that the gates and cameras were not functioning. His dad said that if they had been, would have a lot more info.

This is the most recent interview done (2 days ago) by Mr. Harris and family friend, Tony Mathis. Jennifer Coffindaffer did a good job moderating.

There's little more devastating than when someone you care about goes missing. You' don't want to eat or sleep or smile or laugh because you feel guilty, wondering about your own interactions in recent times and trying to figure out where they might be and how impossible it would be to find them. Prayers to his family and for a Miracles that they find him.

Prayers. This is so maddening.

This reminds me of that case on Bolivar where the girl went outside her friends beach house and disappeared off the face of the earth.

If you're talking about the Bridgette Gearen case her body was found on the beach the next day or two. A friend of mine was lead investigator for the Gal. Co. Sheriff's dept. Her killers haven't been found but they're still working the case.

Yeah thats the one. 2007. The lady disappears right outside her house in a short amount of time.

From the timeline it sounds like this guy went outside for a minute to wait for the uber eats guy. Sounds like he left all his stuff in the house like he was just going out for a minute. Didn't want the uber eats guy to knock or make noise so he went outside to wait for the driver. Would be my guess.

Why were the cartel posts removed? Odd thing to delete.

I didn't see the posts, but it's possible the guy has family or friends on here.

I told my wife about is as she is a bit of a missing persons / true crime watcher. We looked up the spot on Google Maps. You can see for yourself the apartments with the red icon and I drew the terrible red arrow showing the bridge. I guess he could have fallen in and broken his neck, but looking to the right, assuming the water flows that way, there's nowhere to be washed too.

Yeah...that's on the other side of SPID. It's not next to Oso Bay. Kind of hard to wash away from there.

And even if his body DID happen to get out to Oso Bay, it's not very deep at all, which empties into CC Bay, which then empties into the Laguna Madre (none of them are deep either).

It's not like the apartments were next to the Gulf.

They are getting close to finding out who killed her.
