The Morrison County Sheriff’s Office said it continues to work with the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension to find the person responsible for killing Brisk.

“Our office, along with the BCA, are able to use new and advanced technology to perform more extensive testing on evidence that was previously collected,” the sheriff’s office said in an update this week. “This case will not become cold. We will continue to use all of our resources until this case is solved.”

Authorities urged people to call in any and all tips on the case, and in this week’s update asked the public to “please be mindful of anyone you think may be connected to the case that has had a drastic change in behavior since the murder.”

There’s a $30,000 reward for any information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for Brisk’s death.
