Brian Sullivan - Gates, NY
Last seen 7/8/07

Brian W. Sullivan, 19, was last seen at 5:48 am on July 8, 2007 buying breakfast at the Burger King drive-thru window on Chili Ave in Gates, NY.
At 6:10 a.m., "Sully" as he was sometimes known, left a voicemail message for a friend. It was the last time Sullivan was heard from.

Later that day, Sullivan's vehicle, a red 1995 Pontiac Sunfire with New York registration DXU 3048, was found in front of a 100–acre wooded area on nearby Lettington Avenue. A Burger King receipt, stamped at 5:48 a.m., and wrappers were found inside the car, along with Sullivan's cell phone charger and bank card. There were no signs of foul play in or around the car.

Sullivan graduated from Churchville-Chili High School. At the time of his disappearance, he was a student at Monroe Community College. He was considering a career in social work or the music industry and had just ordered hundreds of dollars of sound mixing equipment and was weighing his options.

While Sullivan was unemployed, his family says he was not facing any personal problems and was looking toward the future. The night before he disappeared, he watched a movie at a friend's house and he was looking forward to a big family dinner on 7/8 with his favorite food--ribs. He had also just learned that his sister was expecting a baby and Brian was he was thrilled and excited to be an uncle.

Update: In 2016, a confidential informant told investigators that Brian had been stabbed by a male who frequented the Chili Avenue area. The suspect, Derrick Murray, allegedly told acquaintances that they were going drugs together when Sullivan made a sexual advance. Then Murray stabbed Sullivan several times. Investigators learned through other sources that Murray allegedly enlisted the help of his family to hide Brian's body and car. Murray told one source, "they will never find him if I don't tell them."

Unfortunately Murray died of natural causes just as police were closing in. The Sullivan family is offering $2,500 reward for information that leads to Brian’s whereabouts.Crime Stoppers also has an additional reward. You can call (585) 423-9300 with any tips.

I'm interested in why he used another name. Does anyone know anything about this? Could he be in hiding for some reason?

This is how my friend Wesley Virgin's story begins in this shocking and controversial VIDEO.

You see, Wesley was in the military-and shortly after leaving-he unveiled hidden, "SELF MIND CONTROL" tactics that the CIA and others used to obtain anything they want.

As it turns out, these are the same SECRETS lots of famous people (especially those who "come out of nowhere") and the greatest business people used to become wealthy and successful.

You probably know that you utilize only 10% of your brain.

That's because most of your brainpower is UNTAPPED.

Maybe this thought has even occurred IN YOUR own brain... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's brain 7 years back, while riding a non-registered, trash bucket of a vehicle without a license and with $3 on his bank card.

"I'm very frustrated with living paycheck to paycheck! Why can't I become successful?"

You took part in those types of questions, am I right?

Your own success story is waiting to start. All you have to do is in YOURSELF.
