On September 19th, 2008, an email was sent from one executive of Plus SMS to another, relaying the message, “put a bullet in…Chris,” referring to the company’s then-CEO, Christopher Robert Tiensch. The company was under investigation and was in trouble due to the deception of shareholders and self-inflation of stocks, and Christopher Tiensch had blown the whistle on the entire thing. On Thursday, September 15th, 2011, Christopher was found floating in the Gulf of Mexico, shot to death.

If you have any information about the homicide of Christopher Tiensch, please contact the Port Aransas police department at 361-749-6241 or Texas Crime stoppers at 713-222-TIPS, that’s 713-222-8477, where you can remain completely anonymous.
