18-year-old Brittany Phillips is last seen on September 27, 2004. Just before 10 p.m., she dropped the friend off at home and then drove to her own apartment on 65th Street. The following day, Tulsa Police find Brittany raped and murdered in her Tulsa apartment. In 2019, DNA led to a possible suspect. That person was cleared.

In this episode of Zone 7, Crime Scene Investigator, Sheryl McCollum, brings Dr. Maggie Zingman, the mother of Brittany Phillips back onto Zone 7. They discuss the latest evidence discovery in Brittany’s case - a letter mailed after Brittany’s tentative death timeline.  This changes the timeline of the case and gives even more reason to reinterview friends and suspects, re analyze all evidence and dna in Brittany’s unsolved murder.
