Here's theory #4: He had something on his harddrive about someone else. This someone else told him to destroy the harddrive, perhaps threatening to kill him if he does not destroy it. He destroyed it but then that someone killed him anyway, just to be sure.

Interesting and scary. Dont think I've heard this theory before. I wonder if there was a substantial life insurance policy on him. For some reason, this case made me think of a NY man that paid someone to kill him so his family would receive benefits. This could explain why his body was never recovered.

While I do think suicide is by far the most likely outcome here, the hard drive is really confusing. There have long been rumors that Sandusky engaged in behavior that involved more than just himself - like other powerful men may have been involved in some way with his crimes. Could the hard drive have had some evidence he had closer ties with Sandusky than thought? I think it's highly unlikely, but far from impossible. The fact that Sandusky has always maintained his innocence means he's unlikely to ever expose any possible larger conspiracy.

As a native of Lewisburg I can say this was one of the strangest things that’s happened here. I live one block away from where his car was found and from the abandoned train track/bridge. The Susquehanna river is a half a block away. The river here is very shallow and there is a dam further down stream. It’s extremely rare not to recover someone who has drowned in this part of the river, so long as there are no flood conditions (which there wasn’t at the time). It would be difficult for an adult to drown in this part of the river. Sadly his family may never know what happened to him. Other than legally being declared deceased there’s no closure. .

Wow, you were so close to this case in a sense, it has baffled me I feel like he might’ve taken his life but because he was so intelligent, he might have made it look like that was the last area he was in so he could’ve left the area to take matters into his own hands, so his body could not be found maybe possibly to spare his loved ones The immediate knowledge of his suicide and may be for insurance purposes, however, it could’ve been Foul Play yet how would people who were after him know that he would not be at work and find him miles away? Unless they were following him & instructed him to dispose of his laptop & took info from it But It just doesn’t add up entirely in either scenario!

As DA he easily could have accepted cash for favors, leaving no records of such transactions behind. EDIT (after reading PhilLesh69 reply): The fact that he was adept at storing up his own wealth under other peoples' names also means he could have had additional sources of undetectable resources. Convicts and criminals out to kill him, ex-wives collecting monthly checks...seems like disappearing without a trace was a good retirement plan and that he would be the kind of person to take his time setting everything up in advance. Only speculating about what might be happening in a situation like this, of course.

@@maureeningleston1501 I still feel around 70-80% likely he committed suicide. I will admit though, his finances leave me confused. His job paid $200k/years with great benefits. Even with 2 divorces, I can't see how he had next to no real assets. My suspicion is he had some addiction people didn't know about - most likely gambling, possibly drugs. Even if that were the case, we need to keep in mind that he was about to retire and given his long tenure as DA, he almost certainly had a six figure a year pension in retirement. It's hard to see someone faking their death to start a new life, giving up a fat pension.

Especially if and when someone physically and mentally starts to feel sick from what they can sense. Trust and believe that when they are well aware of who they’ve been during their life time and know how to put 2 and 2 together……….and they’re smart. They will adjust accordingly.

I have always had my own theory in this case. I believe somewhere somehow he decided to leave the country and start over. He wanted to do his retirement away from everything that was going on in his life currently. I believe he found somebody in the network of people that obviously he has to work with due to his employment, and found someone that could get him an ID, maybe he traded some deals within a court system for some cash, met with someone to get a passport and some information, and headed off overseas. I still think he’s alive, living somewhere else. He definitely had the connections to be able to do that. I believe the cigarette smoke was the individual that he was meeting up with to obtain a passport, money, etc. The hard drive contained information about probably helping somebody, and or contacting this individual, so it had to be destroyed. I don’t think there’s any evidence that he’s actually dead and that there’s more evidence pointing to the fact that he took off.

There are "nighttime moving companies" in Japan, and I'm sure here as well, who help people move into completely new lives leaving little or no trace behind. _It all started in a bar in Paris, back in 2008, when a friend told Lena Mauger a story. It was about a Japanese couple who had disappeared. They hadn’t died. They weren’t kidnapped. They just deliberately vanished in the middle of the night without explanation._ _And this wasn’t just a one-off, mysterious occurrence. According to Mauger’s friend, it was a phenomenon. In Japan, thousands of people each year became johatsu - “evaporated people” - driven underground by the stigma of debt, job loss, divorce, even just failing an exam._

I strongly agree that he ended his own life. I think he was methodical and as such, he planned his ending in the same manner. Destroying the hard drive was part of his plan. Furthermore, reports from people saying that he wasn’t depressed are irrelevant because depression is easy to hide, unfortunately. In addition, for people with depression there is usually one or very few factors that keep them going. Maybe for Ray that was his profession, without which life would lose its purpose.

I understand your logic and why you reached the conclusion you did about Ray but I would like to think that Ray just wanted to start a new life. The part that seems strange to me is that they never found his body. If he had been murdered they would have found the remains of a skeleton somewhere or a bone fragment from his body been taken to a wooded area an animal. Had he thrown himself into the river that in spite of being shallow water from what I gathered from your presentation, the river would have carried it to some destination and it eventually would have washed up. Ray was not stupid, if he was going to drown himself I don't think he threw himself into the shallow end of the pool as they say, that wouldn't really be conducive for an unsuccessful outcome of killing oneself, if that's what one wanted to do. I hope Ray just "ran away from home," & somewhere in some obscure town he has an Antique Store that specializes in Vintage Cameras.

I'm not optimistic when it comes to people who at first glance seem flawless and correct. They use to be the worst of us all. But maybe I'm totally off with this theory and he really was just a depressive innocent person.

I'd put the odds something like this. 70% chance of suicide - Just about everything lines up with this for me. His brother committed suicide, which has a well known genetic component. He struggled financially (despite a very good, well paying job). He had multiple failed marriages. It sounds as though he suffered from depression. The evidence suggests he (not someone else) knowingly destroyed hard drives prior to leaving. He also left hints about suicide, which were apparently interpreted incorrectly by others. All of it points heavily to suicide. 20% chance he was murdered - Given his occupation he would have had no shortage of enemies. 10% chance he faked his death and left to start a new life - Seems *highly* unlikely. He had next to no assets and basically left with nothing. Also, he was about to retire and a long-term DA would have had a very large pension. I cannot imagine he'd up and leave all that behind for no apparent reason. A few other observations: Evidence of cigarettes in his car - I'm not at all convinced this is significant evidence of foul play and there are multiple possibilities. Even though people insisted Ray hated cigarettes, many people are smokers who go to great lengths to hide their habit. I had an uncle who smoked for 40 years and literally *nobody* in my family knew he smoked in public until he died and the cigarettes were found on him. Ray was known as a very private person and in a stressful job, which makes the idea of him being a private smoker more likely. Another possibility is that since his car was abandoned unlocked someone else, like a vagrant or junkie, took shelter in it at some point and smoked in the car. The Sandusky case - This is mere speculation, but it has long been rumored that Sandusky was involved in a larger conspiracy of abusing children, with other powerful people involved in the abuse. Potentially someone like say, a district attorney. I am *highly* doubtful this is the case, but I have suspected there is a chance Ray was involved with Sandusky more than people think, and that the hard drive may have contained something shady, such as evidence of his involvement with Sandusky. Like I said, I think this is unlikely but worth mentioning. Ray's finances - Even with two divorces, his complete lack of any assets makes little sense. His job pays about $200k a year with great benefits. There's no reason why he should have struggled financially unless there was more going on - like a gambling addiction or drugs.

@@rabefamily9146 As far as the hard drive goes, I can speak to personal experience as someone who has suffered from extreme bouts of depression, suicidal thoughts, and some actual attempts. There have been a few times when I wiped my computer hard drives and even destroyed electronic devices prior to a considered or planned suicide attempt. There has never been in anything remotely criminal/illegal on my computers. My own purpose for destroying that information was more about preventing family or friends from finding out more mundane things - like what porn I'm interested in and other web surfing interests they may find strange or confusing. It's more about wanting to keep personal things personal and not polluting the image loved ones had of me after death. That may seem odd considering suicide by definition is probably far more shocking to loved ones than something like finding out what the deceased person's porn habits are, but it was my thinking when suicidal. Extreme depression and suicide typically aren't entirely rational. It could be the case that Ray was destroying evidence to cover up some past criminal misconduct, or it could be something extremely mundane, like what I was trying to hide.

Anyone else ever run into this type of shared self destructive behavior? Great job as always, Doctor.

His family and those close to him were looked at strongly by the authorities and all ruled out as suspects.

Even though he was divorced twice, the fact that he had no assets despite having a $200k/year job with benefits makes little sense unless there was more going on - like a gambling problem others didn't know about.

You know what would explain a lot in this case...and I am ofcourse also only speculating...that Ray was being blackmailed. Destroying the harddrive and the lack of earnings that didn't fit the position he was filling. That car doesn't fit a man of his standing. Neither does living in the house of his girlfriend. You would suspect he would at least keep up an image and drive a bigger car. He seemed to be very ambitious at one time and he did have a high profiled job. For him to be as humble and seek out a simple life, come on...there's only one Keanu Reeves. And there are many ways to slip up when you are a public official. District Attorney is not associated with modesty. But a scandal could make a proud man from owning up because of what people would say or how it would reflect on his office... Could be barking up the wrong tree here but this is defenitly a reason to look into persons that came into some money the last few months before his disappearance. "Miss Marble😉🤭🤯" haha.

Let's review : dedication to meticulous planning , conscientiousness, 2 failed marriages , introversion, weight loss , frailty. Mr. Gricar may have been diagnosed (under an assumed name) with a terminal disease , most likely cancer , he did not wish to wither away and be a burden on his girl friend or family or expose himself to the humiliation of being a bead ridden pre-corpse . Within his experiences as a prosecutor and DA he had many opportunities to encounter individuals who had talents and proclivities to engage in activities that would be something less than above board. I suspect he may have planned his exit strategy to include a permanent and very discreet way of disposing of his own body post suicide - the cigarette smoker being the off grid undertaker.

I'm going with murder on this one. Unless his pension went down the tubes due to bad investments, I just don't see him working his whole life through all that controversy just to die by his own hand. Whoever wanted to kill him probably promised to spare him if he destroyed the laptop evidence but then betrayed the promise. Seems like suicidal people do try to tie up loose ends before they die, but people with confidentiality concerns retire and die all the time without totally obliterating their case files. They transfer them to another attorney or leave them in a safety deposit box or something. Maybe he figured out who killed his brother. Maybe he knew of some dirty police or politician activity and that's why he was always closed off at work. Who knows but I just don't believe it was suicide. Not based on this extremely brief coverage anyway.

There was evidence of an unknown account in Gricar's check register, that he made telephone transfers to. It was listed as "from SAV to VG." VG is the bank prefix to the British Virgin Islands.

In my country we have a ban on abortion except in 3 cases: 1. Mother's life is in danger 2. Mother was raped 3. Mother has the knowledge that her baby is retarded or very ill, so much so the kid would be a burden on her life and the kid will always require being cared for, it cannot live on its own. We are pretty much a conservative nation and I like it. There's no racism here, no xenophobia nor homophobia. It's all a myth that being conservative is somehow being backwards, we love our nation and country, we have plenty of Vietnamese here, 300.000 Tatars who are Muslims but consider themselves Poles and love our country, recently we have more tourists than usual because we don't have lockdowns and masks are needed only in public transport and businesses that require it, and I like it. Although, like in USA, the leftist European media attacks us on every turn, that our government is authoritarian and does not abide the law, both claims are of course ridiculous, they don't live here, we do. Our left has been infected with ideas from USA and when they can't get their way, they go abroad to complain to daddy and Eurodeputives from the left always vote against our interests, which makes them traitors in our eyes. Jews hate us, because our president signed a law, that forbids them to try and get estates, as our president said: "we will not pay for German crimes during WW2". It's rather terrifying that we beat communism, only to see the West succumb to it.

@@lynncrf yep, I'm from Poland. It is like you say it is, everyone goes with the flow except for us, Hungary and 2 other countries I think. We're fighting strong for our values and tradition. Unfortunately our left has gone off the rails, like the rest of the Western left, including Northern America. Canada is where the disease started, spread to USA and everything USA does, the left in Europe copies this and it's terrible. The amount of propaganda against our country is immense, they accuse us of not following the law, racism, alphabet community phobia. Nothing they claim in their little articles is true, our constitution forbids forming fascist, nazi or communist parties, so they should look in the mirror first. They want us to be like them, and are pissed off we're largely conservative. And if someone is killed here "it's because we're conservative", again look in the mirror and see how many deaths and rapes are occurring in their "paradises". Some idiot in an article in US called our party far-right, totalitarian etc. I don't think he was ever here. All unfounded lies. Twitter removed one of ours politicians simply for saying there are only two sexes. You just can't be left alone, leftism is creeping into our country, but I hope we will prevail. What the left is doing is just double standards. Cheers my Irish friend.

I think Ray Gricar had a secret side to him. The fact that he decided not to prosecute a famous child molester case makes me wonder if he also had some involvement in the case. It was not uncommon for Ray to go off alone and spend the day "by himself". I don't know if his involvement included a pay off or if he was involved in molesting children himself. The fact that he destroyed his hard drive tells me there was something on the drive that he didn't want the public or law enforcement to find out about either due to criminal prosecution or personal reasons. I will argue that a man who is going to commit suicide would have no reason to destroy the hard drive since he would no longer be around to suffer the consequences of the information found... but on another note Ray was very concerned about his public image so maybe even in death he wouldn't have wanted his reputation tarnished. I personally think he disappeared on purpose. He was seen with a tall attractive brunette woman the day he disappeared. Some people argue that he was getting ready to retire and get a large pension so he would have waited until after his retirement to disappear at his own hand. Well, not if he wanted to make it look like he was killed. The facts we have to look at are... 1) He destroyed his hard drive on the day he disappeared. We know he was the one that did this because he researched how to do it. 2) He took the day off work and went off alone. He told his live in girlfriend he would be gone all day... this gave him a head start and time to fulfill his plan. 3) He told a group of colleagues during a meeting that he would not be there for an upcoming event even though he was expected to be there. This shows he knew he was going to disappear. 4) His body has never been found. 5) He left his phone in the car. This is important to me because the phone is a very good tracking device in finding someone. He didn't want to be tracked. All of this makes me draw the conclusion that Ray is somewhere living a new life probably with the woman he was last seen with. He was entangled in some pretty bad stuff so he destroyed the evidence. He got into another vehicle since tracking dogs lost his scent beside his own car and he and his secret lover disappeared.
