A week after hosting our “Brian Shaffer” event at BrewDog we sit down and discuss the event, some of the Brian Shaffer theories and questions discussed at the event, our panelists, and of course all of the amazing folks who attended the event to help an Ohio charity - The Porchlight Project. 

Ohio State Medical Student, Brian Randall Shaffer disappeared without an apparent reason on April 1, 2006.  His last known whereabouts was a second-floor campus area bar where he was having drinks with friends. Near the entrance of the Ugly Tuna Saloona just before 2 a.m. Brian is seen on security footage talking briefly with two women. Brian later became separated from his friends who have stated that they assumed that Brian had left and gone home. At the time of his disappearance Brian Shaffer was 6’2” tall and approximately 160 to 165 lbs. He’s a caucasian male with brown hair and hazel eyes. Brian had a Pearl Jam tattoo on his upper right arm and he plays guitar. If you have any information regarding Brian’s disappearance or his whereabouts please contact Detective Edwards with the Columbus Police Department @ 614-645-4624 or  [email protected]
