'Run as Far as You Can!', Devil's Den 911 Dispatcher Reveals Brinks Family’s Final Moments Saving Their Children

In this powerful episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we sit down with a 911 dispatcher who was working the moment Clinton and Cristen Brink were murdered at Devil’s Den State Park while hiking with their two young daughters. This exclusive firsthand account gives us our most intimate look yet at what unfolded inside the Washington County dispatch center as the calls for help began flooding in.
The dispatcher reveals chilling details: the girls were found running and screaming, saying their mother told them to run as fast and as far as they could—only stopping when they could no longer hear her screaming. We hear what dispatchers knew in real-time, the confusion, the emotion, and the heartbreak that unfolded as a brutal, random stabbing unfolded in broad daylight on a public trail.

The dispatcher also shares new details about the suspect’s vehicle, including its sound, speed, and design—details collected from multiple eyewitnesses that have not yet been released publicly. From exhaust tips to taillight shape, this episode breaks down what the public should be watching for. We also learn about efforts to track the vehicle through surveillance, as well as behind-the-scenes frustrations over why more hasn’t been released to the public.

You’ll also hear about how this tragedy affected the dispatchers personally—including this guest, who is also a parent, and has experienced devastating loss of her own.

This is not just a breakdown of the crime—it’s the emotional reality of the people behind the scenes fighting to bring clarity, comfort, and justice in the midst of horror.
