Description: On the night of April 1, 2006, 27-year-old medical student Brian Shaffer went out with friends to the Ugly Tuna Saloona bar in Columbus, Ohio. Security cameras captured him entering the bar—but he was never seen leaving. When the bar closed and his friends couldn't find him, Brian had simply vanished. Despite extensive searches, hundreds of tips, and years of investigation, no trace of Brian has ever been found. The case has baffled investigators and captivated the public for nearly two decades. How does someone disappear from a crowded bar without being seen on any security camera? Did Brian leave voluntarily? Was he the victim of foul play? Or did something else happen that night? This episode explores the mysterious disappearance of Brian Shaffer, the theories surrounding his vanishing, and the heartbreaking search that continues to this day. Brian's family is still looking for answers. If you have any information, please contact Columbus Police or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers. New episodes every Tuesday and Thursday!
