Jason's Nissan Altima was found Sunday, Dec. 13 just outside of Luling. It had been crashed and abandoned on a road. Luling is about 30 minutes away from San Marcos, where Texas State University is located.
Family told ABC13 that officials drained a pond in Luling that they believed could have clues to Jason's disappearance, but found nothing. His dad says the family just wants him home for Christmas.
According to Texas EquuSearch, they will be sending additional crews out to the rural area of central Texas where Jason's car was found to assist in the search.
