No one knows how intoxicated Bryce was since the toxicology reports were inconclusive.<br /><br />2. The only person who knows what the last text said has nothing to do with the family or the friends that were present that night, but he was IN NO WAY at fault for Bryce's death. However this person was not the last person to see him alive.<br /><br />3. Bryce was born in Hinesville GA, his father is a Sr Chief in the Navy, we traveled quite a bit. We were briefly stationed in Kittery ME where Bryce graduated from High School. He started school in Groton CT, then we moved to Charleston SC, Kings Bay GA, Waihiawa HI, Kittery ME, Newport RI, before he left for college in Savannah where his dad and I are from.<br /><br />4. The day after his truck was found, the Chief of police with Savannah Metro stated he was not at all surprised that my son was found at Belles Landing due to a report that had been called in the morning Bryce went missing reporting a suspicious vehicle in the area. I repeat, this information came out the day AFTER Bryce was found. That call was placed by an officer with the AASU police, the chief of police knew but kept the information quiet throughout the 87 day investigation. This information would have been key in finding my son immediately following the accident. Although it may not have saved his life.<br /><br />5. For 6 months following his death I was told I would be able to review his case. Once the toxicology report was received I would have full access. I was told week after week when I called that the report was not in, until the sheriff from the county I moved to intervened on my behalf on October 27, 2010. Six months to the date of my child being found, the day before Bryce's birthday. The report had been issued in June of 2010, but denied to me by the GBI from June to October. I was finally given a pathetic case file on Dec 31, 2010, but only after the Head of the GBI gave the order.<br /><br />6. His phone would have powered off when his truck entered the water between 430-500 AM on January 31, 2010.<br /><br />7. Bryce was not in any trouble with anyone for anything. Any rumor of drug use is just that...rumor. I will not say that he was perfect but he was in no way shape or form a drug addict. He made mistakes, and ultimately paid for those mistakes with his life. <br /><br />Those are the facts...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17312271021778024109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-55882201101000957952014-12-27T00:52:41.420-06:002014-12-27T00:52:41.420-06:00Four years plus beyond my son being found, and her...Four years plus beyond my son being found, and here are your facts...<br /><br />1.

I read a post on one of his friends FB page that when he stated Bryce left the campus....the friends reply was "I hope he wasn't driving, he was in no condition to drive"...also...on BBH FB page...one woman posted she saw his truck parked up against a tree the morning he disappeared. She reported this to the police...not sure if it was ever confirmed that that was in fact his truck...but it would seem that he did not drive directly to Bell's Landing (where he was found)learning my purposehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10383452109959091464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-83423447911134585652010-05-02T21:03:42.155-05:002010-05-02T21:03:42.155-05:00"2.

The friend said the text message didn't make sense, and so therefore he deleted it. I don't know about you, but if a text message doesn't make sense, I usually ask for clarification or something. Why would you delete it?"<br /><br />This is a valid point, did you tell the police? They can get that message retrieved. Maybe it will make sense now. The friends might not want to take the polygraph if they were into drug activity. I don't understand how can he not pay for prescription drugs? or do you mean he owed his dealer? Once again you would need to inform the investigators. You could always leave an anonymous message on a tip line, but if you really want answers you would be better off to speak to them personally. Good Luck. I am afraid that the drug activity may be a common thread throughout all of these cases. But unless families are willing to come forward, I doubt we will ever know. It is not easy to admit when out children choose to use drugs. No matter how hard you try to keep them from it and warn them of the dangers, ultimately it is their choice. :(Milliekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843560567349178579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-41365160493601791882010-05-01T15:28:05.343-05:002010-05-01T15:28:05.343-05:00The police say that they do not suspect foul play,...The police say that they do not suspect foul play, but I feel the a lot of the evidence is pointing in that direction...<br /><br />1. If the cell phone died at 1:37pm the day after the night he disappeared and his truck hit the water that night, his phone would have died instantly, not picking up any signal. There have been some discrepencies between articles of when his phone turned off, but his parents reported that he texted someone right before he left Armstrong campus.<br /><br />2. The text message that he sent to his a friend of his before he disappeared is also suspicious. The friend said the text message didn't make sense, and so therefore he deleted it. I don't know about you, but if a text message doesn't make sense, I usually ask for clarification or something. Why would you delete it?<br /><br />3. When they found the truck, it was in around 15 feet of water. It had front end damage and the airbags deployed... No tire tracks. If he hit the water going fast, wouldn't he have braked seeing as it was a dead end and no more road? And would hitting the water going fast cause the airbags to come out and cause front end damage? Or did something else happen?<br /><br />4. How come they scanned the area 3 TIMES and just now found his truck? And why did Armstrong randomly request that the Marine Patrol come search that specific area after the reward went from $5000 to $1000?<br /><br />5. My friend knows a family member, who told her that he was into prescription drugs and failed to pay for some he got that night. The family obviously wouldn't want to release that information to the press, but that is up you whether you believe this or not.<br /><br /><br />6. Why are all his friends that he hung out with that night, refusing to take a polygraph? What do they have to hide? If I were a close friend, I would have given every detail I could in order to find Bryce. Unless someone didn't want him to be found...<br /><br />7. If this truly was an accident, why was he in that area? NO ONE knows? Someone just isn't talking.<br /><br />8. I was told that the police found his truck in a peculiar place. They have no idea how it got where it got, if he had gone into the water "by accident".<br /><br />I find it hard to believe that no foul play is suspected, when there are ends that just don't match up.
