The Disappearance of Brandon Helms - Part 1
Manage episode 419437238 series 3490521
“If you commit suicide, you can't bury yourself.” That is what a family member of Brandon Lee Helms said to Katie when she was investigating the disappearance of the then 42-year-old South Georgia father for her TV series 'Unsolved Georgia.'
Brandon vanished from the home he was living in shortly before Christmas of 2015. Some believe it was suicide. Others allege foul play.
Join us as we hear from Brandon's family and from investigators working the case, and learn about some of the odd twists and turns that took place in the months and years following his disappearance.
Brandon Lee Helms was last seen at a home on Teeterville Highway near Lakeland in Lanier County, Georgia, on December 14, 2015, when he was 42-years-old. He stands 5′11′' and weighed roughly 145 pounds at the time of his disappearance. His family says he had dentures and may be recognized by his thin, receding hairline and slight hitch in his gait due to a knee problem.
Anyone with information should call the Lanier County Sheriff’s Office at (229) 482-3545. If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal ideation or a personal crisis, dial 988 for free support and someone to talk to.
