Morrison County Sheriff's Office retesting evidence in cold case

Terry Brisk's body was found seven years ago on his parents' land in Little Falls.

LITTLE FALLS, Minn. — Seven years have passed since Terry Brisk was murdered while hunting. The Morrison County Sheriff’s Office announced this week that they have new technology to test the evidence in the case.

"I only have a few years left and I hope to find out who did this before I die,” Terry’s father, Virgil Brisk said.

Terry's body was found on his parents' land in Little Falls. His parents say he took the day off of work and they didn’t know he was hunting on their land. Sheriff Shawn Larsen believes while Terry was hunting, there was some back-and-forth interaction with the suspect. They believe the suspect then shot Terry with Terry's own rifle.

The gun was found in 2017 but no other key evidence has surfaced.

"It just bothers me that somebody could do this heinous crime and basically not talk to anyone else about it and keep it bottled up," Sheriff Larsen said.

He hopes re-testing the evidence will lead to a break in the case and help the family get closure.

“It just hurts to see his kids growing up and not having their dad,” Terry’s mom, Frances Brisk said.

Morrison County Sheriff's Office is collaborating with the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. There is a $30,000 reward for anyone who has information that leads to an arrest. If you know anything about what happened, contact the Morrison County Sheriff's Office at 320-632-9233 or Crime Stoppers of Minnesota. You may do so anonymously.
