May 27, 201412 yr Based on what I have read, the young man had some issues so the self inflicted death does not arouse suspicion of foul play. This might be the case, but there is a backstory to this that we had never heard... In the week since he's been missing, I never heard anyone mention that he 'had some issues' until today. That could be somewhat of an important red flag when trying to locate a missing person.
May 27, 201412 yr ^ you need all the help you can get in these situations. If they would have said he had issues I bet the outpouring of support and help would have been much less.
May 27, 201412 yr As others have said, it seems extremely odd that randomly (it seems) Brogan would tell friends he is looking for his cell phone and then go decide to hang himself. Also, you might need a search warrant or other things to go into those types of buildings, but it seems pretty logical to go ahead and do that for any location in the surrounding area. This very well could be a suicide, but I hope there are more answers to all these questions soon. My thoughts and prayers go out to Brogan and his family.
May 27, 201412 yr First, prayers out to Brogan's family, friends and everyone who took part in the search efforts. Second, I find the sequence of events very confusing. To go from looking for a cell phone to committing suicide is a very large step. On top of that, if the property was locked as the police say, how did he get inside? I'd like to see a full investigation completed before I buy into what is being reported right now.
May 27, 201412 yr Also, the landlord apprently reported something around 9 pm that led them to believe something was going on in the building. What was the suspicious activity that the landlord supposedly heard? This all just seems off to me...
May 27, 201412 yr Also, the landlord apprently reported something around 9 pm that led them to believe something was going on in the building. What was the suspicious activity that the landlord supposedly heard? This all just seems off to me... Article I read stated that workers were going into the building. It also said they had been in the building earlier in the week and saw nothing. Article did not say when he committed suicide. It may not have been the same night? Lot's of unanswered questions. Some the family may never find out, or if they do, may never share.
May 27, 201412 yr Author ^ About midnight I heard that the coroner said he has been there dead most likely since the morning he was reported missing, but of course that they would have to the autopsy to be certain.
May 27, 201412 yr Very curious if he found his cell phone and if it was on him at the time of death. If not, where did it go???
May 27, 201412 yr Author Very curious if he found his cell phone and if it was on him at the time of death. If not' date=' where did it go???[/quote'] Last I heard is that around 3am last Sunday his phone pinged a tower in Avondale, so his phone very well could have been lost then taken by someone else. All will come out soon enough.
May 27, 201412 yr Very curious if he found his cell phone and if it was on him at the time of death. If not, where did it go??? I think they said they never recovered it and it quit sending out pings/signals around 5am on Sunday meaning it was turned off or the battery died.
May 27, 201412 yr That last video of him doesn't appear to be the video of someone headed to commit suicide. Do the police sometimes give basic details to the public in an effort to conceal things they may suspect?
May 27, 201412 yr Author ^ Yes. Many times they will either hold back a few key pieces of information or change the truth a little while the investigation is going on.
May 27, 201412 yr We're all assuming he really was looking for his cell phone. The cell phone could've just been a ploy to go back out.
May 27, 201412 yr If he was going out looking for his cell phone, what could have led to him walking back to the house next door to commit suicide? If he wasn't going out looking for his cell phone, why was he walking down the street with a flashlight to eventually go commit suicide next door?
May 27, 201412 yr Is it possible that it was a murder and an attempt to cover it up as a suicide, and being reported as a probable suicide to not spook the murderers? Just some thoughts going through my head.
