Summary

Welcome back to another bonus episode! In today’s episode, we’re talking about a case that perplexes many true crime sleuths to this day: the suspicious disappearance of Brian Shaffer. On April 1, 2006, Brian was with friends at the Ugly Tuna Saloon in Columbus, Ohio. Brian was seen on cameras inside the bar shortly before 2 a.m. talking to two women, but then walked away. After the bar closed, his friends couldn’t find him. He wasn’t answering his phone, and they didn’t know what to do. In a chilling twist, Brian was never seen on camera footage leaving the bar… or seen ever again. This case was previously covered on my YouTube Channel, 10 to Life.
