Let's talk some true crime.

Police are seeking information on a man missing since February 24th, 2019.

Husband and father, Tyler Davis, was last seen in Columbus, Ohio.

Tyler was a guest at the Hilton Hotel, located at the Easton Town Center.

He is Caucasian, 5'10 inches tall, 170 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.

Tyler has a noticeable birthmark on his right arm.

He was last seen outside of the hotel, wearing a blue and green flannel shirt, blue jeans, and black and white Nike shoes.

If you have any information, please contact the Columbus Police Department at 614-645-4545.

Well, this week, Captain, we have a unique situation.

We have the opportunity to speak with a victim.

Her name is Brittany Davis, and her husband has been missing since February of this year.

We were notified of this pretty early on after his disappearance because we live in the area where he was last seen.

And we do this kind of thing.

You know, this is our gig, as some would call it.

But we've been asked to help, and now we are asking everybody else for their help.

Please listen to the shows, and we will post Tyler's picture at TrueCrimeGarage.com.

Please go there, look at Tyler's picture.

Maybe you have some information that could help assist in this investigation.

So, let's go to the interview with Brittany Davis, Tyler Davis's wife.

Brittany, thanks for joining us.

Can we start off by you telling us who is Tyler Davis and how did you guys meet?

I met Tyler in 2013.

He was actually my boss for a long time.

He managed just like a local franchise business that I'd worked at for a while.

And

I knew him for a couple of years.

I mean, we were really good friends before we started dating.

And so we met in 2013 and we actually didn't get together until like two thousand, the beginning of twenty sixteen.

You know, we were really good friends.

And then we ended up having Erin at the end of 2007 or the summer of 2017.

And then we got married at the end of 2017.

We had just celebrated our first wedding anniversary in November.

Now, you and Tyler are not from the Columbus area.

Why were you guys going to Easton?

And where are you from?

Okay, so we actually live in Wilmington, Ohio.

We usually we do stuff like I mean with a young kid and you know he works a lot.

He works usually like 60 hours a week.

We don't really do much like we never like go out with our friends or anything like that.

You know

we're both like pretty much home bodies.

Tyler plays a lot of video games.

So three times a year and we do it on my birthday, his birthday and our anniversary, we will take Aaron to Tyler's parents' house.

for like the night or like a day or two and we'll just like go spend time together.

We went up to Easton actually for my birthday.

My birthday is on February 24th and we got there on the twenty third.

There wasn't really a plan.

Like we knew we knew we were gonna like go somewhere for and we knew we were gonna go somewhere in Columbus for my birthday.

We didn't know exactly where, like what area.

The only reason we picked Columbus actually is because Tyler's from Circleville.

and that's where his parents still live.

And it's a lot closer, you know, from Circleville to Columbus than than for us to go because we usually go to like Cincinnati and stuff.

Like, we usually go a completely different direction.

But that was the only reason we picked Columbus.

So now that you guys know you're heading to Columbus, let's start going into the details of that day.

Let's start by you guys leaving the house.

Okay, so Tyler actually worked, and that's another factor that I think plays into this, is he was really exhausted.

That week, he'd worked

six days straight just so he could have Saturday and Sunday off together like the way a schedule works and so he had worked you know six 11 12 hour shifts

straight for six days and he was really exhausted he didn't get home Friday night until around 3 30 in the morning he usually closes and his work is about a 30 minute drive anyway so it usually pushes him getting home super late so So what time did he get home from work?

He got home Friday night was technically Saturday morning around like 3.30, like 3, 3.30 a.m.

And, you know, we just like stayed up for a little while.

We just hung out.

He played his video game.

I was still trying to pack everything for like us to go because we have a baby 17 bags and I was just getting stuff ready.

And I think we went to bed around like 5.30, 6 a.m.

We have a really weird schedule just because of the hours we work.

Like we both work night.

Like I bartend, you know, he's a nighttime manager.

So we were actually super late.

Uh, we had overslept.

We were supposed to be on Stringtown Road to meet his parents at like noon and we didn't even wake up until twelve thirty on Saturday.

So we got like a really late start to the day.

We didn't sleep very much.

We were super late.

We got to

me and Tyler and Aaron left our house

probably around one

and we got up to

Stringtown Road.

We had like lunch with his parents at the Texas Roadhouse.

Probably around, we left around like

3.30, 4 o'clock, maybe.

And we had just pretty much had lunch and handed Aaron off to his parents.

And

after we left, me and Tyler stopped there at the Speedway right off of 71 right there.

We just got some gas, you know, some coffee.

And then from there, we went to Easton.

It was right there.

We checked in around, I literally think I I have it, like exactly at 4.58.

So once we checked into the hotel, we just kind of laid around for a couple hours.

You know, as we both took a shower, we waited on one of our friends, a really good friend of Tyler's, is from the area, and he was going to come out with us that evening.

We actually were supposed to meet a couple more of my friends that live up in Columbus, but nobody else ended up.

being able to make it out.

So it just kind of turned into the three of us.

You and Tyler are just hanging out in the hotel room and Tyler's friend is going to come and meet you guys at the Hilton at Easton yes he so he lives um in the area he doesn't live too far um you know he is living in Columbus so he drives to the hotel uh he comes up to our room and we just literally I was getting like I had just taken a shower I was getting dressed we just kind of sat there and like coming out and talked for a couple hours just watching some really trashy TV and just talked for a minute before we had headed out for the evening.

So once you leave the Hilton, what's the first place you guys go to and how do you actually get there?

So we left the hotel probably around 8.30, I'd say.

And we actually, because me and Tyler had plans for the next day to like, you know, go shopping, get like a couple of stars planned, like scheduled and you know, we're gonna get lunch and stuff before we had to go get Aaron.

But so we, when we left the hotel, we just kind of walked around.

That was the first time I'd ever been there.

It's really big and there are a lot of stores.

So we're just kind of seeing like the lay of the land really, like which, like what kind of stores they had.

And we probably walked around for a good 40 minutes.

We walked into a couple of little shops and stuff.

And then the first place we went to was Bar Louie.

And we got to Bar Louie

a little after nine.

I'd say probably like 9.20, 9.30.

And it was a steamer, me and Tyler and Sean.

We just sat at a bar table and hung out and each had like one or two drinks, I think.

From Bar Louie, we went directly over to

Adobe and that is like right beside it inside of like the

inside the mall.

Do you have any clue how many drinks you had or how many drinks Tyler had at either one of these bars?

So I know when we left, okay, so let me see if I have this right.

Yeah, so we left, we paid, I paid my tab literally at Euston.

Tyler paid the tab at Bar Louis at like 10, 19.

And

there I know I had two drinks.

Tyler had half of one drink.

Each of us had like

a lemon drop, like a shooter.

And then we went over to

Adobe and we had

I know I had three or four drinks and I know Tyler had three or four more drinks, but like when he, he doesn't do like mixed drinks and he doesn't do, he doesn't do beer.

Like if he drinks, it's just like a straight shot, like just one shot, and he'll just like sip on it for like a minute.

You know what I mean?

He doesn't really, he doesn't, he doesn't like beer.

He just drinks, uh, he's been on like a T-Dose kick here lately, but um, he doesn't like drinks, but he likes to drink scotch like on the rocks, that type of stuff, you know what I mean?

So it's not like he like downs drinks constantly.

You guys go to Bar Louis, then you head over to Adobe Gila's.

What time do you think you left Adobe's?

We pay the tab at Adobe at 11.30 p.m., but we stay there for a little bit longer because we like finished our drinks.

Brittany, are your guys's bank accounts, you and Tyler's bank accounts connected to each other?

Because we actually, we do not.

So Tyler has like his bank account and we've just never gotten around to like me getting on it and then I have my bank account, but I have access to his account.

Like I have all of the bank records from that night, like how much money we spent how many times the car was spiked well and that's how I literally know exactly what time like we paid our bill and stuff like that so you guys are a young couple you guys are coming up from Wilmington to the Easton area for your birthday Tyler has worked six days in a row over 10 hours each day but what is the vibe of the night so it was really like it was like we were happy like that's the signal like this is the first time like on this when all this stuff that was was the first time me and Tyler had ever drank together in a bar ever.

And it was like, we were having a fun time, you know what I mean?

Like, we were out for my birthday, like, it was my birthday.

I was trying to be a wingman for our friend.

You know what I'm saying?

Like, we were just laughing.

Everybody was having a fun time.

Like, we were just having fun.

So, like, after we had had our drinks at Adobe,

it was my idea to go to the dollhouse because by that point, I was a little pitchy.

I had never been to an establishment of that sort before, so I was just like, Yeah, whatever.

We don't have anything to do right now, type of deal thing.

We go

back to the Hilton because our friend had ordered an Uber.

It's about like a 20-minute drive, I think, like 15-20-minute drive, if I'm not mistaken.

And me and Tyler walk inside.

We use the restroom before we get an Uber, like at the Hilton.

You know, so we get into

into the Uber and we go to the dollhouse.

And for our listeners that are not from Columbus, the dollhouse is a gentleman's club.

Yes, it is with a bar.

So now you're at the dollhouse.

It's your idea to go there.

Tell us what happens at the dollhouse.

Okay, so, you know, me and Tyler and our friend, we walk in and, you know, we like paid our cover or whatever.

We walk up to the bar, we like get a drink, and, you know, we're just like sitting there talking.

we got to the dollhouse around 12 45 a.m and this is like the early early morning of February 24th but this is actually pretty early in the night for you guys because you guys are on a different schedule than most people right a lot of people don't understand because a majority of people have their schedules like you know nine to five but like when you work night for literally years it just you kind of you turn into nocturnal like literally my son's bedtime is midnight because of the way our schedule is set up.

Just so Tyler can actually see Aaron and not have to go four or five days without seeing him just because of the schedule, if that makes sense.

And just so our audience is clear, we're doing this interview at midnight.

So this is your guys' schedule.

Definitely.

We've always been our nighttime scheduling as he's a closing manager.

I don't even think, they don't even close until midnight.

So they got to actually close.

And then most of the time, he doesn't get home between 2.30 and 3.30 in the morning.

You know what I mean?

And I'm a bartender.

I don't even call last call until 1 a.m.

So that puts me getting home at 3.

So we've always just been on kind of like a different schedule than everybody else.

So now you're at the dollhouse, the gentleman's club.

What are you drinking?

What is Tyler drinking?

Yeah, so

I was drinking Bahama Mamas.

I drank Bahama Mamas on my, I like coconut.

Our friend was actually, who was he drinking?

Captain Cokes.

And then, I think it was Diet Coke, actually, I don't remember.

But then, yeah, I know Tyler just stuck to his usual.

He would just get like, he would just get like a shot,

a shot of ketos, vodka, or he would get tequila.

I would say we probably

each had like three or four more drinks while we were at the dollhouse.

What is the vibe of the group while you guys are in the dollhouse?

I don't know.

It was pretty cool, you know.

Met a couple really nice girls, super lovely ladies.

It was, I don't know, it was just really, it was like, definitely, it was like a first-time experience for me.

So it was just like, I was kind of just taking it in type deal thing.

You know, we, me and Tyler sat at the bar for a while and we were just like talking.

We bought one of the girls a drink.

At that point, I think our friend, he kind of just like, you know, he probably felt like the third wheel because it was just like me and Tyler and then him.

So he was just kind of off like doing his own thing, you know, like we were having a fun time.

But it seems also in a gentleman's club that the females working will be extra nice to any female customers.

Yeah, I apparently they really will go, like, I guess couples is like a thing that they

like direct towards I don't know.

I learned a lot of stuff about strip clubs after that experience in like talking because that was the first time I'd ever been to one.

But I thought it was, I thought it was really funny though, because there were a lot of people that were like, oh, why did you go to a strip club?

Like whose idea was that?

And I was like, oh mine, like,

you know what I mean?

Like, I was just having a fun time.

Was there anything odd or anything that sticks out about your experience at the dollhouse?

So there were a couple really weird things that, well, like at the time I didn't think it was weird, but now I think about it, and obviously it's just because like everything that happened, but a couple things popped out to me that I thought were odd at the strip club.

So I remember at one point,

you know, me and Tyler had just ordered a round of drinks, and we like went out front to smoke a cigarette.

And when we were walking out front, the guy saw me.

He was like, no, he's like, you can't take this out front.

And I just kind of looked around.

I was like, I mean, as a bartender, like, you know the rules.

You're not supposed to leave your drink anywhere.

You're not.

It's just like don't do it.

It's bad, especially in a place where I've never been here before.

I don't know these people.

I don't I live an hour and a half away.

You know what I mean?

But I did.

I did a no-no and I sat it down.

I couldn't see it.

I walked out front.

Me and Tyler did.

I smoked, smoked cigarette.

We came back inside.

I grabbed my drink.

I took a drink of it.

It was still pretty full.

I took a drink of it and then I was like, hey, I'm going to go to the restroom.

And then I handed him my drink.

He's like, okay.

I'm going to go back to our seats, whatever.

So I went to the restroom and I wasn't in there very long at all.

And by the time I got out, I noticed all the lights had been flipped.

Like they turned all the lights on.

And I was like, okay, so like, I guess it's time to go, you know?

So like, as I'm walking out of the bathroom, there's like a really big wall and I'm kind of walking around.

Like, you can't see people, if that makes sense.

Like, if somebody's exiting the bathroom door, you can't see them coming out until they like turn a corner.

And I'm like, here's Tyler and shit.

like getting into an argument with the bouncer and there he was like the bouncer was like you guys got to go it's time for you to go he's like no man like we're leaving I just got to wait on Brittany.

He was like, my wife's in the bathroom.

I'm like, let me just get Brittany.

And he was like, no, no, you've got to get out of here right now.

He was like, we will leave as soon as she comes.

Like, she's in the bathroom and she's going to be out any second.

And then I was like, that, like, I hear them.

And it's at that point.

I'm like turning the corner.

And Tyler's like, look, there she is.

He's like, we're out of here.

We're leaving.

And the guy's like, okay, cool.

But like, the guy kind of was, I don't know if he thought, you know, he could have just thought they were lying.

Who knows?

But

so, you know, we all walk outside and I look at my phone and it's about to die.

I was like, Tyler, what's your phone on?

He's like, It's almost dead.

And he didn't have like the Uber.

Like Tyler doesn't have the Uber app on his phone.

Like, I have it and then our friend had it on his phone.

So we're standing out there for a minute and I was like, hey, like, can you order us an Uber?

And he's like, yeah, totally.

And we ended up sitting out there for probably about twenty, twenty five minutes.

Like by this point, everybody else was like clearing out.

We were just like waiting on our Uber.

One of the girls came outside.

She gave himself like a bottle of water.

He sat there like waiting on our Uber or whatever.

So you're doing a real good job of getting the timeline from Brittany leading up to Tyler going missing.

The thing that is interesting here is, I mean, we're really hearing very specific times, and I love that, knowing the timeline, because we have her,

because we have the bank statements that say what time they are leaving these different establishments as they go about their night, having a good time.

Well, they have the bank statements, plus they have her phone log and Tyler's phone log.

And so...

By collecting all that information, it really gives us more pieces of the puzzle.

Yeah, and one thing I should point out here is there is a name that we are kind of removing from this interview as we go along.

Right.

Because we've been asked to do so.

So if you hear what sounds to be a glitch, it's really we've just had to edit out that name.

Like we said before, this story hasn't been covered a lot, but since Brittany has been trying to get interviews with anybody that will listen, and she has a lot of information, she has these timelines.

So on one hand, she understands that

it makes her seem almost as if she knows too much information and that she is trying to cover something up.

But on the other hand, this is somebody that is trying to put as many pieces out there so we get answers.

Yeah, so the friend's name we have been asked not to include, and it's just natural speak for Brittany to include his name when telling us about the events of that night.

Now, in regards to some of the things that she referenced as being might be strange regarding some of their stops along the way,

so the dollhouse is

I wouldn't I wouldn't dare to call that a tough place or a rough place.

I've been there a couple times and felt very comfortable.

I can see how maybe somebody, a first-timer or somebody not from the area, they might have thought a few things were strange.

But regarding bars in that area and really really Columbus as a whole, one thing that I've noticed is that there's no patio.

You know, I haven't been to the dollhouse in years, but last time I was there, there's no patio.

So they are very strict on not allowing people to go out the front door or side door with a drink.

You are supposed to drink that drink, consume that drink within those four walls.

They can't have you hanging out in front of the establishment, sipping on a drink while you smoke a cigarette.

So that's not really out out of bounds.

One thing I will say in the dollhouse's defense regarding this, having lived, I lived like a mile and a half from there for about 10 years.

So one thing that would happen.

It's nice that you were able to live close to your work.

Well, one thing that I noticed from time to time is that there would be a police car, especially like on a weekend or very late hours.

The dollhouse is back in almost what I would call a court.

And so they would just go off the main road there and do a quick loop around.

Well, the police don't want to see anybody outside of that bar with a drink either.

Oh, and it's funny too, because the term loop around is my go-to stripper move.

Well, it's so what I'm getting at is I think that it's just a bar rule.

It's part of their alcohol license, and it has to be strictly enforced.

And then on top of that, regarding the situation of Tyler and his friend arguing with the bouncer or the guy working the door about them, hey, you got to leave.

I think most people from Columbus will tell you, and I know this varies by city and by establishment, but I think most people will tell you that here, I typically notice what I call a hard out.

for the night.

When it's time to leave, there's a lot of bars that are not even nice about it.

They will take your drink, you know, and all you want to do is finish your drink that you've paid probably way too much for.

And they will take your drink and they really want to push you out the door.

Regarding the statement about him saying, well, we got to wait for Brittany.

We're waiting for my wife.

We're waiting for Brittany.

I'm sure these door guys, bouncer guys hear stories like that all the time.

They don't want guys waiting around for girls, especially if they happen to be people that are working there or suspect that they're talking about somebody working there.

So I kind of get what's going on, and she's painting a very good picture leading up to this uh getting into an uber and i'm guessing heading back to the eastern area for the night and listening back to the interview for the first time

you you you said that she kind of sounds nervous to you yes and and

i get that vibe too but i i get it more just being nervous wanting to say the right thing wanting to come off a certain way i don't i don't get the feeling that she's like nervous because she's hiding something No, no, no, no, me neither.

And I think you hit it right on the head there.

It's really just a nervousness when you know that you're talking and that you're being recorded and that people are going to hear it.

Not so much worried about or nervous about what you are saying.

Everything I'm hearing,

it's details, it's specific, and it's the truth.

Well, and

her defense on the nervousness, I mean, she did have to listen to my silky pipes.

Can you tell me anything about the Uber or the Uber driver?

Yeah, for sure.

So the,

let me see, I have it right here.

So it was a Saturn view.

It was a guy, it was a younger guy.

Am I allowed to say his name?

I don't know if I'll get in trouble.

Well, we'll just leave his name out.

So it was like a red Saturn view.

That was a nice, it was a nice car.

It was like an SUV type deal thing.

Now, what Brittany told me, but she accidentally said their friend's name, and he's been getting harassed online, so we're not actually going to use his name.

We've just been calling him the friend.

So the friend sits up front.

Tyler sits behind the Uber driver.

Brittany sits behind their friend in the back seat.

So we ended up leaving.

We left the

Uber picked us up exactly at 3.01 a.m.

And we got back to the hill.

I remember like getting out of the car and I saw the dashboard and it said 3.18.

But one thing, this is something that I think plays a really big, a really big part in this, is the fact that when we did,

when we were on our way back, like

it was only like a 15, more than 17 minutes, yeah, like a 17-minute ride.

And

Tyler had dozed off

in Uber.

And that was really, like, as soon as I noticed he fell asleep, I was like, man, because he's just,

he's like, it's one of those people that if he's asleep, I just leave him.

I don't like to wake him up.

I don't, you know what I mean?

Like, I don't, especially if he had been drinking, I just don't like to.

Because he wakes up, he gets all crabby and cranky, and it's just like, it's not worth it.

You know what I mean?

Do you think he fell asleep due to exhaustion?

Or do you think it was a passion?

I think it was more exhaustion because he had worked literally like

like six

10 to 12 hour shifts straight and Tyler's one of those people to where, like, he is, he is a night owl.

So, like, most of the time, like, when he gets home and it's like, you know, like 3 a.m., like, he's not going to take a shower and go straight to bed.

And I mean, I don't think anybody that works weird hours does.

You know what I mean?

Like, he has to line down just like everybody else when we get off work at five.

You know what I mean?

Like, he eats dinner.

He, like, takes a shower, plays a video games, does whatever he wants to do, pretty much, and then

passes out.

You guys get back to the Hilton UC 318 on the dash of the Uber driver's car, and now Tyler's asleep and you have to wake him up.

Yes, exactly.

So I'm like, and at this point, our friend had fallen asleep too.

He was passed out too.

And I was like, man, I've never tried to wake him up.

So like, I hit him on the shoulder and he was like, popped up.

He's like, what's up?

And I'm like, cool.

So I got out of the car.

I woke up our friend and I opened the

door and I was just like, how do do you want to do this?

He's just like, you know, hey, Tyler, like, come on, let's go.

And he was like, okay, guys, I'm coming.

Just give me a minute.

And I'm like, we sat there for a couple minutes.

And you could tell, like, the Uber driver by this point was just aggravated.

You know what I mean?

Like, hey, please get the hell out of my car.

It's probably,

it's like almost 3.30 in the morning.

You know what I mean?

He's in Tyler out of the car.

And when we were getting him out of the car, I like grabbed one of his arms and I was like, hey, let's go.

And this grabbed an arm too.

And I was like, hey, like, you know what I mean?

Like, well, get this.

Like, he was still asleep.

You know what I mean?

Like, he literally had, it was like he wasn't even woken up.

And when he got out of the car, he was like, what the hell is that?

Like, we're not, where is our light going?

Like, we're not even where we're supposed to be.

And I was like, babe, look, what are you like?

This is our hotel.

Like, our hotel is right here.

Like, what are you talking about?

And he was just like, in a cranky mood, like, he was just.

pissed off.

He was just tired.

I really, I don't think that any of

anything that was going on there, like, it was not a good mix.

You know what I mean?

Like between like the fact that we had been drinking, the fact that he was exhausted, the fact that we were in an unfamiliar place, like that was just not,

it was not a good mixture.

So he was just, he was pissed off, you know, got out like out of the Uber and he was just like, what the hell, guys?

We're not where we're supposed to be, blah, blah, blah.

And he just gets like, just shitty and he walked away.

And I'm like, what the shit?

Like, what are, like, where are you going?

Like, we're literally supposed to be right here.

So I go to follow him.

and

his friend's like no Bernie it's okay like I got it I was like are you sure and yeah he's like yes like don't worry we'll be right back and I was like okay cool well with that before

before he had left the hotel we had we had two room keys and we didn't know like if like like he like our friend didn't know if he was gonna end up like passing out on the couch in our hotel room or just like going home you know what I mean and um Tyler gave him one of the room keys and he was like put this in your wallet just in case we get mixed up something or other you know we have a room until noon whatever if you need to sleep on the couch or something and then Tyler has one in his wallet like don't worry about it he's like just go upstairs we'll be right there he took like she handed me the room key out of his wallet and I was like you know, whatever, like you, you got it, cool.

So I went upstairs.

I wasn't up there for long.

I plugged in my phone.

My phone was dead.

I was just really just trying to call Tyler.

Well, you're up in the hotel room at this point but where is tyler and his friend they never like tyler never walked like physically like we were five feet from the door he never walked inside after we got out of uber not one time did he step into the doors he literally like got out of uber whatever

and then after he started walking he i'm trying to if you are standing in front of the hilton

He's literally going like diagonally to the left like there's a bunch of condos right there.

And that is the direction he is like walking in, like through the parking lot.

You know what I mean?

And it wasn't like Tyler walked off by himself and then his friend, like he, like, they went together.

You know what I'm saying?

Like

they dispersed together.

So what are you doing now that you're gone from the situation?

Yeah, I plugged in my phone for it.

Like I wasn't gone for 10 minutes.

Like I really wasn't even, it wasn't even 10 minutes.

I used the restroom and then I came back downstairs and I couldn't I couldn't find like either of them like my phone's on like 4% like it keeps it's about to die and I'm trying to call Tyler I'm trying to

call his friend and I'm like what the hell is going on like where are you guys at and I'm like messaging them on Facebook I'm trying to literally like video chat Tyler's Facebook just so I can see like if I see like a storm like you know what I mean if he's walking through Eastern Town Center if I see something I notice and I'm like oh he's over here type feel thing like I'm trying to look.

He never, he didn't answer me.

Um,

Tyler called so Tyler called me at 3.37 a.m.

And he was like, you know, I'm sorry.

He was like, I'm just walking around the block, smoking a cigarette.

I'll be right back.

I just, I was just so pissed off pretty much.

Like, I was like, okay, you know, whatever, cool.

Um,

I'll see you in a few minutes.

He's like, Yeah, I'll be I'll be back in a minute.

I was like, okay.

So

it's then at this point, his friend walks back.

And I was like, well, you know, like, where's Tyler at?

And he was like, Brittany, I wouldn't worry about it.

It looks just like he's blowing off some steam.

And I was like, well, you know, is everything okay?

And he was like, yeah, I just, I really wouldn't worry too much about it.

He'll be right back, you know.

And he's like, you can't, you can't really get lost here.

It's like, really, like, look at where you're staying.

It's the biggest building, blah, blah, blah.

And I was like, okay, well.

And then me and

me and him kind of like at this point I'm

I'm freaking out like

what's going on where's Tyler why didn't you follow him you know what I mean like I'm just I'm going crazy well Tyler fell asleep in the car Tyler doesn't know this area Tyler seemed a little confused when he got out of the uber this caused for a little alarm yeah and it was and that was that was the biggest thing like if he had been awake that whole entire like if literally if he had not fallen asleep in that car like I wouldn't

it was just kind of like

I knew I know he was so exhausted and at the same time like I wasn't trying to

scream at his friend on the side of the street because it's not like he knew what was gonna happen you know what I mean like I'm sure he's just like

whatever dude you're gonna walk right back you know what I'm saying like and it's pretty late but this is also roughly around the time you guys normally go to bed.

Exactly.

It's like it's you know, it's like it's way past time to go to bed, dude.

Like if you need, it's time to go to sleep.

And, you know, he was thinking the same thing, too.

He's probably like, I don't want to be out here like walking around in circles chasing you when we're supposed to be back there.

You know what I mean?

So you saw Tyler walk towards some condos at Easton, and then he called you at 3.37

and you talked to him for a little bit then.

Yeah, he called at 3.37 a.m.

and he was just like,

he just sounded like mad.

He was like, I'm sorry.

He was like, I'm just, I'll be right back.

You know, I'm just taking a walk.

And out of all of the, like, Tyler has never, like, you know, even if like we had just gotten into an argument, he never

just leaps and walks out and just starts walking.

Like, he doesn't do that.

Like, don't get me wrong.

He might, like, go out back.

and smoke a cigarette, reevaluate, you know what I mean?

Just like give it a minute, but he never just like takes off walking.

Like, I'm the one who leaves.

Like, I'm the one who just like leaves the situation.

Like, he doesn't do that.

Now, you said Tyler's phone had low battery while you're leaving the strip club.

Now, this is a little bit later.

He calls you at 3.37.

Does he call you after that?

Yes, he does.

So

he calls at 4, a little after 4.10 in the morning.

So this is roughly 30 minutes later.

from the first call.

Literally.

So, and this whole time, I'm standing like out front of the hotel.

I'm just like walking down this way.

I'm like, maybe if I go this way and I'm just kind of sitting here to see if like he's going to pop back up, you know what I mean?

I'm like, he said he was going to come right back.

So if I go out here, like, I can miss him walking into the hotel.

You know what I'm saying?

So the call at 410, what does Tyler say to you?

Yes, like around 4.10 in the morning.

And he was like, I'm sorry.

He was like, I see the hotel.

I'll be there in like five minutes.

And I was like, okay.

He was like, I'm walking through the woods.

I see the hotel.

I'll be there in like five minutes.

And I was like, you're walking through the woods.

And

a lot of people,

when I say that, I have to make sure people know: like, my husband is not an outdoorsy person at all.

I'm talking like this man because

he likes video games.

Like, he's puts me, he's literally like, we put Legos together.

I have a whole Disney Princess Castle in there.

Like, we play games and we watch a lot of movies.

Like, we're not outdoorsy people.

Like, literally, the shoes he has on right now, he bought those in college.

he graduated seven years ago like he's not he doesn't like woods to him could be three trees in a circle so at this point you and the friend are outside the hilton yeah like we're standing like we're standing on the corner we're just kind of like waiting for him do you know what i mean to just like walk back up because that's what he said he was like yeah i see it i'll be there in like five minutes and i was like okay cool You know, he was like, sorry, love you.

I'll be right there.

I was like, okay, I'll wait for you.

Like, I can come and meet you right now if you want he was like no i see it i'll be right there i'm literally looking at the hotel and the hotel is really really big so like at night time

that all the lights that they have on it it's very very noticeable it stands out um

so you know me and me and his friend were just standing there you know waiting for him and then it's literally as soon as we hung up like a few

Maybe a minute, maybe one whole minute, Tyler calls me again.

And we called me, answered it, and the the line stayed open for like four seconds and he didn't say anything I was like hello you know he didn't say anything and then ended and then when I tried to call him back it went to voicemail so I assumed that as soon as he called me like his phone was he had told me through the night that his phone was gonna die like you know when we were waiting on the uber outside of the dollhouse like he was like oh no my phone's gonna die I don't know how like the exact percent but as soon as I try to call him back from that like four minute call his phone is dead and it's been dead ever since.

Like I call it every day.

So what about your battery at this point?

Because you said it was pretty low when you got back from the strip club.

You went up to your room to charge it for maybe 10 minutes.

So it's surprising that it's still working at this point.

Right.

It's on like all of us.

It was almost dead.

And I was just like.

Still standing out there.

And, you know, me and his friend, I'm like, you know, what do I do?

We got to go do something.

We got to get in the car.

We got to go somewhere to go look for him.

he's like bringing everything's fine I really wouldn't worry about it I'm just like everything's cool like don't like he's gonna walk up any minute um

and he actually headed out at that point

so he was like I'm gonna go and I was like super

at this point I was really frustrated because I am in an area I don't know where I'm at literally.

I have no clue where I am.

I can't find Tyler.

He has everything in his pocket.

You know what I mean?

Like, he has all of our bank cards.

And I'm just sitting there like, what am I, what am I supposed to do?

Like, who am I supposed to call?

Like, I have to call somebody to come and help me because I can't find him.

And I'm freaking out.

And me and him get into an argument on the street.

And I think,

I just, I think

he really,

obviously, nobody thinks this is going to happen.

You know what I mean?

Nobody thinks something like this is going to happen.

So I really just think at that point, he was just like, Brittany, this is not a big deal.

Like, you know what I mean?

Like, he's literally just got off the phone with him.

He said he's going to be right back.

Like,

don't worry about it.

Go upstairs.

He's going to be walking in soon.

So you don't have the hotel key that Tyler has.

You have the one that Tyler gave to his friend.

Yes, exactly.

So I was like, super frustrated at this point.

I was just really scared.

I didn't know what to do.

You know, I mean, it's like damn near five in the morning.

I didn't know who to call.

Like, who, I don't know, like, I only know a couple people in Columbus and his friend's one of them.

You know what I'm saying?

So I'm just like, okay, like, what do I do at this point?

And my son's about to die.

I go inside and I plug it in.

And I called a really good friend of mine.

I called Harley.

And I was like, freaking out.

Like, I don't know what to do.

What am I supposed to do?

Where do I go?

And she's like, Britton, I think you shouldn't calm down and breathe for a minute.

It hasn't even been

literally 15 minutes since you talked to him.

She's like, I think you should calm down.

You know, tell me what happened.

What did you guys do?

Where did you go?

So I told her all this stuff and I was like, I need you to stay on the phone with me while I go look for him because I don't know where the hell I am.

I don't know this area.

It's still dark as shit outside.

And she's like, yeah, totally.

So I'm like, okay, cool.

So I let my phone charge decently enough so I could like leave.

I don't know how far I was going to go.

So I was probably up there for maybe like 25 minutes, like like talking to Harley and letting my phone charge.

And then after that, I just, I, you know, grab the hotel keynote and start walking.

And it really blew my mind how that place is really busy during the day.

Like there is a lot of traffic.

And I mean, I understand 270 is right there, but that whole place is still busy during the day.

But at nighttime, I'm talking at like, this is like almost 5 a.m.

at this time.

It's like nobody's there.

So your call shows that he calls at 4.10.

you talk, get off the phone, he calls right back.

That's the four second call.

You think his phone went dead.

At some point, you call back and Tyler's not answering because it's going straight to voicemail.

So signs that his phone is dead.

Oh yeah.

So I yeah, so as soon as you know we talked at 410, he got off the phone and then

I wouldn't say immediately, but pretty like a minute.

It was not long.

He called me back again and that was when that was like the four seconds.

And then I called him directly back after the line ended, you know, like whoever hit a button.

I don't know, I called him directly back, and it went straight to voicemail.

Then, then the next call that you made is to your friend Harley.

Yeah, so I called Harley, and she stayed on the phone with me while I let it charge for a minute.

And then I just started walking.

And like,

it's pretty well lit at nighttime.

And at this point, like, I didn't even walk into the town center because I saw him go off in this direction because that was the direction I started walking to you know what I mean so I'm like walking down like the main drag at first and then I'm still talking to her and I walked down a couple of the streets but like I was just walk I was just walking and there were a couple spots that I hit that it got like there were no more street lights that there were no more because I had to walk so far down like it was just black and at that point, I would just, I've turned around because I was by myself.

So what happens next?

Well, I look at my phone and my phone is on the fed and I'm like a mile.

I'm like on the other, I'm on the completely other side of Easton.

And I'm like, Harley, you know, I'm like, I walk back to the hotel to plug my phone in.

I'm going to try to get a hold of he's probably like called any of his friends.

I don't really, I don't really know what to do, you know?

And she's like, Brittany, I think you just need to go back and just calm down.

I'm sure he's probably there right now, Bernie.

He could be asleep right there right now.

And I was like, Yeah, that's true.

So I, you know, I walked back.

He wasn't there.

I plugged in my phone.

I got off the phone with Harley.

So then at this point, I just started calling.

I started calling everybody.

Like, I called all of his friends.

I called anybody and everyone that I could think of that he would call.

You know what I mean?

Did Tyler get a hold of anybody?

Did Tyler try to contact anybody?

And nobody talked to him.

So then one of my

one of Tyler's really good friends, one of our good friends, just named Adam, he was our roommate for a couple years in Wilmington.

And

right before I had Aaron, he actually

got a new job and him and his fiancé moved up to Columbus.

So I called Adam and I was like, look, this is the situation.

Like, I don't, can you help me?

Like, I don't know what to do.

Like, where do I go?

You know what I mean?

And he was like, no, I'll be there.

I'll be there in 10 minutes, 10, 15 minutes.

And I was like, cool.

So Adam shows up to the hotel.

And he's like, you know, pretty much like, what happened?

What did you guys do?

Was everything fine?

Did you guys have a fun night?

Blah, blah, blah.

I'm like, no, like everything was really fine.

Like, we had a really good time.

You know what I mean?

Like, there wasn't no problems.

Like, nobody was arguing about anything.

Like, it was a good time.

And then he just kind of like walked off.

Adam's like, okay, well, you know, he probably, Bernie, he could have, he could have passed out.

on a bench somewhere.

You know what I'm saying?

Like, he could have just literally fell asleep someplace.

And I was like, okay.

And so let's let's be clear with the audience about the confrontation.

This is when the Uber driver is dropping you off and Tyler is asleep and seems a little confused.

Yeah, that's what it was.

Like he was just like still literally asleep in the back of the car and he was just so tired.

And like I said, you know, from he was just exhausted.

And then it didn't help that we had been drinking that night.

And so by the time he did get out, he was just,

I don't even know what word I would use.

Like,

yeah, yeah cranky he was just grumpy he was just like I don't want to do this right now like I don't want to deal with this type of deal thing so now you and Tyler's former roommate Adam comes picks you up in his car you guys are driving around in the early morning of the 24th February 24th at Easton town center yeah so he's pretty much like okay Brittany like no

Tell me where you guys live.

Let's go around here.

And at this point, it's like it's like daylight, you know what I mean?

And it's already, like, Easton's already packed like and it blew my mind because it was so early but the place had already been super busy

so we drive around Easton you know yo everywhere for about like an hour we're just driving around looking through places and all these different things

one thing about Tyler is he's one of those people that if

Like all of his numbers of like phone numbers, he doesn't have any number memorized.

So if his phone's dead and

he has like somebody else's phone to like cost him, I'm like, he's not going to know what the number is to even call you.

You know what I mean?

I was like, well, Adam is like, well, Brittany, you know, he could be at the hotel right now.

Like, we don't know.

We've been gone for like 45, 60 minutes, like almost like an hour.

And I was like, yeah, that's true.

So we go back to the hotel.

We walk straight up to the room and he's not there.

I write down my phone number and I stick it right beside the phone in our hotel room.

And then we go out of our hotel room in the Hilton.

It's really, really big there are a lot of meeting rooms like convention area like this thing is huge so me and Adam are literally walking around any and every single possible room that's open

do you know if they have video footage of the front lobby of the Hilton at Easton they do have video footage of the front lobby but we weren't even in the lobby when all this stuff had happened right you're not hanging out in the lobby but you're are you going through the lobby to get to and from your room oh yeah definitely so with your story they should be able to line up you going to and from your room with that footage and you guys are on the fourth floor yeah no we were on the fourth floor and like at this point i'm just like me in my head i was really

i was like oh my gosh he's gonna walk back into this hotel room and he's gonna ask me why the hell i called adam and asked adam to come help me you know what i mean like he's gonna be like rendy why did you do that like that's not that big of a deal you know what i mean like that's what i'm thinking i'm like oh oh my gosh, she's going to be so bad at me because I called Adam and I'm making her some big deal out of nothing because he's just going to walk in at any moment.

You know what I mean?

So, you know, me and Adam, we look everywhere.

We go back up to the hotel room.

I'm like, okay, what do I do now?

I was like, literally, I have no idea what to do.

And he's like, Brittany, you need to call his parents.

Like, it's time to call his parents.

Okay, a couple of things here, Captain.

Now, you did this interview and you've done a great job doing it, but I have a couple questions for you, okay?

So, one, provided the description given to us about what Tyler was last wearing.

So, we have a flannel shirt, blue jeans, black and white Nike shoes, and as Brittany says, these shoes are probably pretty old by this time.

Right.

Seven years old or so.

Yeah, I'm looking at the weather report for the 24th of February.

I'm seeing a temperature of like 29 degrees around the time that he's last seen.

He's not dressed for that is one thing that kind of jumps off the page immediately to me that I don't know how long somebody would want to venture out on their own walking around in that kind of temperature.

But at the same point, we do all know people that don't seem to, you know, I got a couple buddies.

They never get cold.

Right.

Like the dudes that wear shorts when it's wintertime.

So we don't know if Tyler was that kind of person or is that kind of person, but it seems awfully cold for me out walking around at that time.

I'm not going to lie, the other strange thing here, too, to me is the friend leaving.

Yeah, very strange.

So correct me if I'm wrong, but the way that I'm hearing this

is that by this point,

there's been three phone calls, one at 3.37, one at 4.10, and then a third call that takes place very shortly after the 4.10 a.m.

call.

And possibly more that have been missed.

I haven't seen a call log, but because we also have the call at 4.10 where she actually talks to him, and then another call at 4.11, that's the four-second call where he doesn't say anything.

Phone gets cut off.

She claims that then she calls back.

4.12.

And that's when his phone starts going right to voicemail, assuming that the phone is dead at that point.

So, what I would say there is at 4:11 a.m., he's officially missing, in my mind.

Yeah, but here's what's weird:

part of me goes, Well, maybe his friend is just tired at this point.

I mean, it's 4 o'clock.

That's pretty late for somebody that's on a normal schedule, and I don't know what the friend's schedule is, but let's just assume that it's normal.

So, that's pretty late.

At this point, he might just be tired of the charade.

No, I get it, but Brittany's been very specific so far and very detailed in a lot of the answers.

And what I almost expected to hear when his friend checked out,

I expected there to be some kind of almost a confrontation between the two of them where there's, you know, I can't be here all night long.

I can't just keep waiting around in front of, you know what I mean?

Some kind of back and forth.

I think she kind of talks about that a little bit.

Okay.

But it's, I, again, that's a little unclear.

I mean,

there's a lot of information that I think that she's trying to process.

And with talking to her, one of the things that she said multiple times is that there's all these pieces of the puzzle that she keeps going over and over in her head and trying to

it's just like the the scene at the the strip club.

You know,

you know, Tyler finishes my drink.

Was there something in the drink?

You know, and that's something she didn't think about for weeks.

But she's trying to put together these pieces of the puzzle.

But I do find it very strange.

I mean, if my friend, you know,

if

the wife of a friend seemed calm at the time, like, oh, he's going to be back in a couple seconds, you know, okay, well, I'm going to head out.

Not so big of a deal.

But if the person seems pretty stressed out, and I would assume that if he calls you and then you and you get a blank call back, you know, a four-second,

nothing but silence call, and then you call back and the phone's dead.

I would be a little worried at that point.

And so I think, as a friend, I would not want to leave my friend's wife there until I saw him.

And once I saw him, I'd go, okay,

you know, I'm out of here.

Right.

But as you said, you know, it may have been extremely late for him.

He may be going off the fact that, hey, that quick call back that went dead was either a butt dial or

this is Tyler.

He's walking.

He's making his way back to the hotel.

Those were what we're told Tyler says.

I'm returning shortly.

And the other thing, too, I guess, that we have to factor in is the friend

is not leaving Brittany just stranded out in the middle of nowhere.

She's in front of the hotel.

That's a big, bright hotel with staff that are still working at that time.

I mean, she could be, what, she steps away from walking into the hotel lobby.

So it's not like she's out in the middle of nowhere here.

Right.

The other thing, though, that I want to clear up, because I'm a little uncertain about this,

it sounds to me that

at the earlier part of the night, they have two hotel keys, but we got three people.

So Tyler has one, the friend has one, Brittany does not have one, but at some point, she receives the hotel key from Tyler's friend.

Yeah.

So am I to assume what I'm questioning here is when the friend returned to the hotel, does he use a

key card to enter the room or is he just showing up?

He has no key card now because Tyler is out wandering around with the key card.

Well, no, I think what happens is when they return that she gets the key card from the friend

because basically the reason why they gave him the key card was just in case they got separated.

You know, we're a couple.

We're not going to, you know.

We're not getting separated.

Right.

Right.

And like she said, she was trying to be a wingman for this guy.

So he was, you know, out looking for, you know, a female friend.

So

if they did get separated, well, heck, if you can't make it home, you have a...

you have a key to the room.

You're welcome to crash on the couch.

So it sounds to me that once the exchange happened, that somehow she got the key from the friend, and then she went up and charged her phone.

But to me,

and I know, like, I don't mean to throw shade, but at the same time, Brittany's trying to take all these pieces, and you'll hear it in her story a lot, like

going back over something because she's looking at notes.

She's saying, oh, no, well, this also happened.

Oh, and here's this other thing that happened.

And she's trying to remember everything because she does think it's important to get as much information out there because she knows that a lot of these cases are

there's leads by people just sitting around and and and going over these cases at home

and when you're a month and a half out and there's no answers and there's no leads you start getting desperate for anything but well and you question every little thing yeah you wonder about every little thing i have a difficult time with the

battery charging of the phone and the battery life.

A lot of that stuff doesn't add up to me.

You know, it seems like the phone is constantly dead, but there's phone calls being made.

But again, it could be as simple as she returned back to the room at some point that she doesn't remember, you know, returning back to the room to get a

charge on the phone.

So there's a lot more to dive into because, like, like we said at this point,

you know, whether it's calling a friend to come search around

and call your other friend because you're freaking out,

that's not such a big deal.

But

once you decide that you have to call his parents, once you decide that you have to call the cops, then

this is becoming very serious.

Yes, it has.
