Texas Group Searches For Missing Hancock County Mother
UPDATE I: We just received a phone call today from Tim Miller of Texas EquuSearch … THEY HAVE FOUND THE BODY OF MISSING BRANDI LAURENT. (developing …)
UPDATE II: Multiple search teams under the organization and direction of Texas EquuSearch have located the body of missing 29 year old Brandi Laurent. In less than one hour after the search began, the Harrison County Sheriff’s Mounted Patrol located the remains of Brandi Laurent. Brandi was found in tall grass approximately 6 to 8 feet tall near a power line.
The location where Brandi Laurent’s body was found was less than one mile from where she lived on Kiln, MS off of Road 528 and 530. Reports are that her clothing was the first indication that this was the body of missing Brandi Laurent.
Kudos to law enforcement and the multiple search teams and their cooperation in helping the family of Brandi Laurent and bringing them answers and Brandi home. This search effort represents the best of what can happen when law enforcement and search teams all cooperate for the greater good. We spoke with TES Case Manager Cindy Wisdom this afternoon, she stated that all the search teams and law enforcement worked together to accomplish the outcome to bring closure and answers to the family of Brandi Laurent.
It probably will not be long before Brandi’s husband, Leo, will have to be doing some explaining to law enforcement. Its only a matter of time.

I can only hope that whomever did this to Brandi will suffer dearly and will have to pay for this wrong he has done to Brandi and her girls, who no longer have their loving and beautiful mother. Thanks for the article. Brandi we love you. RIP my dear sweet friend.

It is totally amazing it took 10 min’s to find this lady, how long has her family been suffering wondering her fate, 4 months.
I could understand if she was hidden, burried or far away but so close to where She went missing from, it’s not like we hade snow or something hampering the search.
How can our county officals live with this, it is pretty clear they did not do a search for Her. Our hearts and prayers are with Her family and friends, Jake

It took from August till November to do a search and then come up with nothing ?? Am I missing something here? This is totally ridiculous. The family of poor Brandi have had to suffer all this time because no one would pull their finger out. Just how precious IS life these days? My condolences to Brandi’s loved ones
