      You’re suggesting that a house party with 30-50 people at any given time in the night are all part of some large conspiracy? In what world does that make sense, even if it were 2-3 people who are directly involved in his “murder” you’re depending on dozens of other people (some strangers to one another) to continue lying for no gain on their end…

      I thought it was a little strange when the guy asked the police officer if they had any evidence of him leaving, and she had a delayed response in addition to rapid eye blinking. Makes me wonder if they did find something but weren't coming forward about it. She also used the word "evidences" instead of evidence which is typically not standard, although I understand some people do use it that way. Just seemed off to me.

    I can only imagine the worst part for his parents is the fact that what actually happened to him is a total mystery. I cant imagine what that would be like if that were my child. I would rather find their body, and know that they had passed on. Then to spend everyday of my life not knowing where my baby is or what happened to them. That just breaks my heart. Ryan would never let his parents suffer like this purposely. I find it extremely difficult to believe that no one knows anything. I just can't believe that. 💚

    If he overdosed at the party, someone would have said something by now, especially with this much time elapsed. Very rarely do a group of people keep a secret of this significant for a long time. Someone would have cracked by now and said something. The most logical theory is that he was intoxicated and got lost deep in the woods or perhaps someone accidentally hit him with their vehicle and disposed of his body.

As it happens, it was in the house across the street, so mom and dad had closure right away.

    I cannot fathom the loss of a child, yet I of empathic heart hope whatever truth will be made known to the parents and those who care for Ryan.
    I hope that all avenues of searching are being considered and or utilized; Remote Viewing, certain Spirit Medicines , qualified mediums etc.

    I was up there recently. I went in some back roads and as we were driving out, I saw what looked like a rolled up blanket or those big carpet matts you put in your living room. And further away was a Levi's blue and white, large sized plaid shirt. It was ripped. Didnt match his shirt in the pic though. Just weird that it was out in dirt roads. And I mentioned it to my dad that it was weird, but he said people dump stuff all the time. He wouldn't stop to look and called me a weirdo. Told me they already searched these areas. The thing is, what if someone was responsible for his disappearance? What if they were part of the search? Then they'd know what areas have been covered, and can hide a body there without worrying. I have no idea where it was. I'm not from around there. But it would be good to look in these dirt roads again and do overs. Only allow close family to search the already searched areas, and keep it on the down low. Don't tell anyone.

I cant explain it but something about this story has stuck with me and continues to stick w me. My heart literally drops everytime I see his pic and read Heather's posts. There was a neighbor in the area who said they heard yelling that night so they guy went to his window and saw a car and heard a guy's voice the guy yelled "get the fuck in the car" then sped off i think he was hit by accident then unfortunately dumped somewhere. Or the people at that house know something ...I mean cmon if there are 4 ppl left then they were the last to see him. Im sorry but even if your doing coke or on e you can remember stuff. I just want them to find him! Amd bring the heartless assholes to justice..if you can take someone's life by accident or deliberately then you can be man enough to deal with the consequences of your heinous,selfish crime.

    It was a cold winter or fall night, (I don’t remember details of what the news half let out due to him being a youth) this young man was “partying” with some friends.. they ate some fungus..
    He was an avid hiker and climber and loved the woods more then anything!
    Well he left the party! No one knew anything, no evidence, no traces.. people searched everywhere to no avail?
    Months went on and finally in a wooded area very near to where they had been so long ago,
    someone noticed something in a tree?

    Either someone has been threatened with their lives to not say anything, or no one is coming forward because there isn't a massive reward out for Ryan. At least I don't think there is. Usually when someone knows something about a murder, they'll either wait for the big reward money or they won't talk because they and/or their family have been threatened with death as well. This is so heartbreaking. No parent should ever have to go through something like this. Just someone needs to come forward with info ffs.

    This story always hit me hard. Maybe because he's a local-ish kid, or because it seems like a case where VERY OBVIOUSLY somebody must know something.
    For anyone who was involved with something that happened to him or is withholding any information about an accident, you need to know it's not only the individual that you've harmed, but their family, their friends, their community, and even those of us who've never met him.
    If you're holding back you've created a lot of karma.

    The police need to start with the weakest link, which is the girl. And If Ryan absolutely never left the party with his so called friends. Then they need to look at the 4 remaining. Whoever is the most dominant of the group, the one they all listen too, the leader. That is either the person responsible and the rest are keeping quiet for fear of that person. Or that dominant person made the others do something and they are all keeping quiet for fear of any repercussions, either from the person at fault, or from being blamed. The 4 remaining may have messaged to come over to all talk to keep everyone quiet. This wasn't an overdose that they are covering up, this is much more or they would have just called for help. They need to search for Ryan in all places they would least expect to find him. He is there somewhere.

    Or someone who was looking for young men to pick up for abduction? Just thinking.. they’re so many resorts in the Okanagan area that are essentially in a big loop: sun peaks in kamloops, big white in Kelowna, silver star in Vernon, Apex in Hedley... etc all the way to Vancouver. It is well known that these rural towns and resorts are full of young/college age ski resort employees who are often from out of town or the country. Someone could be targeting these young people knowing they’re far from home and vulnerable after a party/ and or hitchhiking/etc. Many other men have gone missing in the area , some are similar to Ryan’s age, but there is also a group that is much older than Ryan that are disappearing..and all unsolved with no leads. One man was supposedly hunting heading west of Kamloops but went missing and his body was found on a service road the complete opposite direction, east and very far from where he was going to be. Just my thoughts on the disappearance. Ted bundy also travelled across many states to complete his murders on young vulnerable women, he never stayed in one town which is what made his capture so difficult.
    I hope Ryan is found soon 🙏🏼

She and her friend were murdered by that thing they called Ted. That was in 1976. It still makes me angry, sad, and sick all at the same time! Ted was in that bloodline of the untouchables.

There are guys who work at different resorts each year, it’s a lifestyle, one that’s probably supplemented by small time dealing. it’s tough because Ryan seemed to be a sweet small town boy, who was just out in the world partying, probably not used to intermingling with the people partying there. He genuinely seemed like a nice person, and well liked, that would be sure to create jealousy.

    With so many possible places to search, my instinct is that he's out there. Of course, foul play or and accident that was covered up aren't beyond possibility. It does seem odd that nobody saw him, there was no evidence of him, but if he was drinking or using drugs, there's a very real chance he wandered to his misfortune and just simply hasn't been discovered. He could have curled up somewhere that offered some kind of shelter and died of exposure. The beautiful thing about B.C. is the wilderness, but that wilderness can easily hide a wayward wanderer. I hope they find him so his family can rest easier.

According to Ryans mom, he was sharing a room with his friend that his mom said was about the size of a closet. How would that friend not notice all night and in the morning that Ryan wasn't there? And that friend just casually went to work not knowing where Ryan was, and not being able to get ahold of him. He didn't even call police or notify Ryans parents until about 10pm when Ryan had been missing all day and night. I want to hear exactly what that friend has to say about it. He should be in this video telling the story. He was the friend Ryan went to BC with.. he should be more involved in the search!

    Is it possible that ryan could have possibly been drugged or possibly slipped something in order for him to have a "good time"? Knowing so little of the area its possible he could have fell somewhere (ravine/lake/ocean) and depending on the weather perhaps currents or the tide took him out. How does one possibly disappear so suddenly and so quietly? This seems to more of a question of confusion and wandering off (and possibly later being attacked/kidnapped by strangers) the fact that no one saw him means that he must have been by an open but shrouded area perhaps a forest, a field with bushes and trees. Something
    ...something...

  • @calenmoodley6110
    @calenmoodley6110 Před 4 lety +10

    So I have a theory on this. So Ryan and his friends are at the party. People are intoxicated. Lets say Ryan starts hitting on a girl or something along those lines. Now lets say this girl has a boyfriend. This boyfriend might have seen them do whatever together and he gets very angry. Now depending on the person, If the boyfriend was intoxicated it is most likely he would’ve confronted Ryan instantly. If he wasn’t though he could’ve had time to plan something to harm him. So people start to leave and the boyfriend could’ve called out for Ryan while leaving with his friends, Ryan’s friends must’ve not heard it and kept walking, looking back to find Ryan nowhere. So now we might not know what exactly the boyfriend could have done. The reason why I say the boyfriend might’ve not been intoxicated is because how there is no proof or evidence of anything, it seems like it was planned, it is not sloppy at all. To me it would be pointless looking around for Ryan’s body in the woods because if the boyfriend wasn’t intoxicated he could’ve known that if he left Ryan’s body somewhere in the woods he would be found eventually. So now we can say that this boyfriend could’ve known the place well. If this is the case Ryan could be somewhere in the suspects house or somewhere very far away. Sorry if this offends anyone in any way, it’s just a theory I came up with and there could be loopholes that I haven’t thought about yet.
