MANNFORD, Okla. — It’s not knowing that is so difficult for Daniel Brashear.
His beloved sister, Tina, disappeared 13 years ago, and it haunts him to this day.
"She was staying with my aunt in Tulsa, and she had been seeing her boyfriend, who she had a pretty bad domestic with a few months prior. She was staying with my aunt and she goes and sees him on April 1st of 2011,” said Brashear.
Daniel told 2 News his sister had a rough relationship with her boyfriend at the time.
"They had gone to some friend's house that evening, and they started drinking, and of course, it's a toxic relationship, and they started having arguments. The friends that they were with told them look, you guys are going to have to go because they were arguing and that's the last time anyone saw my sister. 'We believe that after they went home, they had another domestic where he ended up killing her,” he said.
Numerous agencies investigated Tina’s disappearance, including the Mannford Police Department.
2 News Sharon Phillips sat down with Police Chief Jerry Ridley to learn more about her case. He said they looked at her boyfriend, and at one time, he was arrested for her murder, but later died in jail, and that’s when the case ran cold.

"He and his father were both arrested and booked into the Creek County jail. Shortly thereafter, he had been sick, and he had fallen in his cell and hit his head, and they later determined that he had a brain bleed, and he was transported to the hospital, and he passed away,” said Brashear.
