She Left Work Got In Her Boyfriend's Truck Bed Then Disappeared: What Happened to Patti Adkins?

[@Amanda.DelRae]

As soon as i heard the “we’ll go shopping when we get there” i said, “why would we go shopping when you owe me money.” 😭😭

[@anniem.670]

Brian Flowers is his name. I'm sorry but there's no way he shouldn't not be named by police. I've been obsessed with Patti's case since I watched it on Disappeared years ago. That wife of his definitely knows more.

[@joasok3642]

Me too ive been obsessed with this case.He killed her of course and the wife knows everything

[@peterhappenshere]

I think this guy thought it out well, sadly. His friend was there as alibi. If a random traffic stop comes by, his friend can confirm that he did not put/know about the body. I guess they were having BK for dinner in the car while she was fainting to her endless sleep. Once enough time has passed he took the friend home, and get rid of the body soon after, or just drive it for a convenient location because by that time even an officer stops him he has an alibi for her time of death.

Why aren’t they allowed to say his name?

[@ClownBlood-pt4sg]

He has since changed his name. My theory is that there were 3 complicit criminals; Brian, the co-worker and Brian's wife. It was premeditated and the motive was financial. Unless there's a shift in loyalties or immunity from prosecution, I don't see this murder being solved.

[@blackopal3138]

@@ClownBlood-pt4sg It's always about money or love. This one was opposite most female murders, where the killer wants her, or is losing her or betrayed by her. Here, he didn't want her. So, no love, must be money. What you describe fits the facts bang on. Wife knew all along, that's why her reaction to the sister's expose, and why she is still silent. She is easily involved by her husband, bc she loves and listens to him, and this woman is pursuing him. He is telling his friend and wife, 'This chick is in love with me. She's willing to give me her money and everything.'.. They sit down and come up with a plan. It didn't get physical except when she went to his shop, he probably wasn't telling his wife about that, now she can't do anything about it, cz they have a blood oath. He's pretty smart, he played everyone, didn't have to lay a finger on her, fooled the cops.... One hell of a way to steal $90K. Each of them for $30K?... His wife should be careful if they have insurance policies. Peace

Bob wanted her in the back of the truck as opposed to sitting inside and using the excuse of just giving her a ride home- but he needed to carpool with someone else as an alibi. " No, Bob dropped me off and everything seemed fine, She wasn't with us."

[@skyjoy07]

Omg I’ve known about this case for a long time and I’m so glad yall are covering it! - I 100 percent feel that Patti was murdered by her “boyfriend” and I so wholeheartedly hope that one day she is found and her daughter and family can find some peace. Thank you for bringing attention to this case ❤

[@JessaLynn8]

Alright, enough time has gone by. They need to move forward with charges. This is ridiculous. They're letting a man they believe is a darn murderer, live freely. And they also could be putting other people at risk. Enough is enough.

[@VioletJoy]

It's interesting how everyone assumes they know what should and shouldn't be done. It would be horrible if he wasn't convicted.

No way to the accidently CO2 poisoning... My husband was a mechanic and is now a consultant to auto factories and he is hyper aware of CO2. This guy had/has an auto shop and works in an auto factory. The safety training for auto factory employees is over and above and will include CO2 safety. This guy is and was very aware of CO2.

Not to mention, some tonneau covers are really not a tight seal. I've seen that term applied to retractable fabric covers that just cover the top of the truck bed.

[@aliceepalermo5047]

My thoughts exactly! If thats really what happened, he knew exactly what he was doing. It was no accident.

The tonneau covers I've seen are latched from the inside of the truck bed so she could have easily escaped

[@janewaysmom]

27:13 This is weird, but my dad cheated on my mom (without any suspicious disappearances), and my mom said at one point she just wished people would stop telling her, because at that point she already knew and was waiting for him to leave her. They had kids together, and I think if my dad left, the kids would default to my mom, and that was what she was hoping for. So, in other words, sometimes that is actually how people react to hearing about their partner cheating.

We have to start using some sense. If you were having an affair with a married man who told you that you were going on a trip, but you can't bring any luggage and you have to hide in his covered truck bed in the middle of the night while he drives a friend home...why would you not be suspicious? I would be suspicious of my own mother if she tried to pull that on me. It's not in any way normal.

[@sftown99]

I agree!

[@bimobop]

She must've really trusted him and she made it make sense for her cuz she wanted it to work out

In my opinion he was probably threatening her/ manipulating and she was fearful of him so she did whatever he asked? Idk just a thought, or she did just trust him that much…

The spot of blood that was found: if it’s patty’s could be from her furiously trying to get out of the truck bed when she realized the exhaust was coming in and she couldn’t breathe. I would imagine someone would rip their fingernails trying to get out or hurt the skin of their fingers while trying to save their life. Horrifying image, but that was what I imagined when the drop of blood was mentioned. I also wonder if this cover is able to be damaged by someone trying to get out from the inside. I wonder if you could have seen scratch marks or tears of some kind. Not sure what the material is. Another thing, I wonder how far the cops dug under that fresh concrete or how far around it they dug. That’s going to bug me. Such a frustrating and disturbing case. Definitely plenty there to point towards this dude she was seeing. Mind blowing that he’s not in prison by now. He’s been walking free for almost 25 years. Just another one of the many failures of the “justice” system.

Where is she? He was the last person to see her alive so what happened? Why does he not even have some cock and bull story made up? He 100000% did it. I hope karma catches up with him because he should not be free to live in the same world he took her from.
