About this episode

The episode discusses the disappearance of Brandon Lawson and the subsequent discovery of his remains, featuring insights from Private Investigator Jason Watts.

Brandon Lawson disappeared off of the side of Highway 277 just outside of Bronte, Texas. After running out of gas, calling his brother, Kyle, and a chilling 911 call, Brandon remained missing for over 8 years. January 15, 2022, Melissa and Whitney joined a 9-person volunteer search team that found evidence leading to the discovery of human remains. After extensive DNA testing, it was confirmed that the remains discovered were those of Brandon Lawson. Now, over four years later, his family still has not been able to lay Brandon to rest. Private Investigator, Jason Watts, joins Melissa and Whitney to talk about the discovery, challenges, and dispel all misinformation.
