Summary
On July 26, 2025, Clinton and Cristen Brink—ages 43 and 41—were brutally murdered while hiking with their two young daughters, just 7 and 9 years old. The girls witnessed the horrific attack and are now safe with relatives. Arkansas State Police immediately launched a double homicide investigation and are now hunting for a suspect described as a white male in his 20s, seen fleeing the area in a black four-door sedan (possibly a Mazda) with a taped-over license plate. The attack took place around 2:40 PM on a popular trail at Devil’s Den State Park in Washington County.
But there’s a new development—and it’s coming straight from us at True Crime Today.
Roughly an hour before the murders, another couple hiking the same trail had a chilling encounter with a man matching the suspect’s description. They describe him as having bright, bloodshot eyes, stubble, wearing dark clothing and fingerless gloves, and carrying an oversized, vinyl-and-mesh “sports bag” totally out of place for hiking. He stared at them with an intensity that made their skin crawl. The moment passed—but they couldn’t shake it. After learning about the murders, they tried to call the sheriff’s office but couldn’t get through. So they came here—to tell their story.
In this episode, Tony Brueski sits down for an exclusive interview with the couple who may have crossed paths with the killer just minutes before the attack. Their eyewitness account could hold the key to solving this case.
If you were at Devil’s Den on July 26 or recognize the description, contact Arkansas State Police Troop L at (479) 751-6663.
