Secret Killer Leads Cops Into His Murder Shed
Unraveling the Disappearance and Murder of Dylan Rounds
Track the minute details of evidence, from initial police misdirections involving external criminals to the crucial cellmate confession, that ultimately exposed the killer hiding in plain sight among the victim's helpers.
Short Summary
- Police initially focused investigation almost entirely on local criminal Chase Venstra, neglecting deeper background checks on initial helpers.
- Crucial forensic evidence surfaced later—DNA on boots and a recovered phone video—that implicated neighbor Jim Brener.
- Jim Brener, who actively assisted in the initial search, was ultimately revealed by his own cellmate to be the murderer, driven by workspace conflict.
- Brener traded the location of Dylan's body for reduced murder charges, concluding the year-long investigation.
This documentary reconstructs the complex investigation into Dylan Rounds' 2019 vanishing, highlighting how initial suspicions diverted attention while evidence slowly accumulated against those closest to the victim. Readers will learn how meticulous forensic work and an unexpected prison confession cracked a case where the killer was integrated into the search effort.

Is everyone in this town walking around with an active arrest warrant?
that town sounds absolutely terrifying, half the town could've been a suspect. what an unfortunate place to start up a farm as a 19 year old. RIP.
Unbelievable that a 19 years old life is worth 15 years...
The fact his scentence was shorter than Dylan’s life is criminal itself
He got more time in prison for the firearms than he did for the actual murder. That’s this crazy as AF.

I remember this story. His mother deserves the highest award for how she stood up for her son. When police were not listening she still fought. If it was not for her Dylan would of become a cold case. RIP Dylan.
1-15 years for killing someone intentionally, it's no wonder the town is bat shit crazy, it's run by criminals.
That town and all the people are straight out of a horror movie .
