Possible New Evidence in Unsolved Morrison County Homicide

Terrance Brisk was found shot to death last November on his parents’ property just outside Little Falls in Morrison County.

Investigators went back to the crime scene Monday and focused on a 10-acre area where the 41-year-old Brisk was found dead after telling family members he was deer hunting on a warm day during the gun hunting season.

In that area, they discovered a few items the Morrison County Sheriff said are now on their way to the state crime lab for further analysis.

“We will not give up until the killer is caught,” said Morrison County Sheriff Shawn Larsen. “And we are hopeful the items we recovered Monday will be useful evidence leading us where we need to be, and that’s on the killer’s front door step.”

Larsen said investigators are still looking for Brisk’s hunting rifle, a Winchester 30-30, which they consider a key piece of evidence.

“If anyone comes across the rifle, we would love to hear from them because it could hold more clues as to what happened the day Mr. Brisk was killed and why,” Larsen said.

Brisk’s older brother, Jay, told 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS the family is confident someone will come forward with information that will lead to the arrest and conviction of the person, or people, responsible for Brisk’s death.

“Why wouldn’t they?” Jay Brisk said.

“There are four kids at home without a father,” he said. “My kids, they miss their uncle and I sure miss him, too. And my mom and dad are going crazy. It is about killing them.

“The biggest question is why someone would want to do this to Terry, because he did not have a mean bone in his body and he had no enemies at all.”

Anyone with information regarding the death of Terrence Brisk is asked to contact the Morrison County Sheriff’s Office.

Investigators Find ‘Items Of Interest’ Connected To Death Of Terry Brisk
Lakeland PBS   Mal Meyer — Apr. 18 2017

During a search of the property of a Little Falls man, who was found shot and killed in November, law enforcement officials found a “couple items of interest.” The items could shed light on the death of Terrence “Terry” Brisk, who was found dead in what originally believed to be a hunting incident, but was later ruled a homicide.

The Morrison County Sheriff’s Department and Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension found the items on Monday, on the corner of Hawthorn and Jewel Road in Belle Prairie Township, 10 miles east of Little Falls.

According to a preliminary autopsy, Brisk died of blood loss due to a gunshot wound on November 7th, 2016. Investigators initially believe that someone might not have realized they had hit the hunter on his wooded property.

However, a month after his death, the department announced the case was then considered a homicide investigation because a gun was believed to have been stolen during the incident. The Winchester Model AE 30-30 lever action rifle is described as an older model, with a wooden stock and forearm with no sling attached. It has not been recovered.

Morrison County Sheriff Shawn Larsen said in a press release that investigators are in the process of submitting the new evidence to the BCA for analysis. Because of the ongoing active investigation, no details will be released concerning the items that were recovered on the property.

Sheriff Larsen states that there is still a $30,000 reward for information that leads to the identification of the person who shot and killed Terrance Brisk.

Larsen states that their office is one step closer to solving this crime and that they are committed to working this case until a suspect is in custody.
