THE GIFT THAT KEEPS GIVING-CASEFILE PODCAST

For the last year and more Casefile Podcast out of Australia has given us such gifts. Most recently they funded the whole wrap of my 2nd car. A year after the show and I get weekly contact from listeners!!!!

MOST DEVASTATING NEWS-DNA PROFILE USED FOR YEARS--NOT OUR KILLER!

I am devastated. After 15 years using a DNA profile from 2 sources that logically seemed our killer, and after we had the Parabon phenotype picture developed, our DNA was analyzed by the best and she found a direct hit. Per protocol, the case was developed to look at him and his DNA obtained in the way it should after there is a hit, and it matched. BUT in the interview with him and two others, it was found, due to airtight alibi, that he couldn't be our killer.

GOD!!!!!!!!!!!This means all suspects we compared our main DNA profile to must be relooked at. This means we do not know if he is Caucasian, African American, Hispanic, Asian etc etc.  IT COULD BE ANYONE! Tulsa Police department c seemed to think it was not important to share much of this information with me like alibi, etc. IF THEY DID I wouldn't have many questions. Past detectives and past head of homicide always shared info with me and told me not to share and I didn't. This current detective treats me as if he doesn't trust me and I have never given him any reason
HOMICDE FAMILIES NEED  INFORMATION, ESPECIALLY LIKE OURS, TO BE SHARED WITH THEM SO THEY CAN UNDERSTAND. ESPECIALLY WHEN A BIG CHANGE OCCURS. OR THEY NEED TO BE TOLD WHY THEY CANNOT HAVE THAT INFORMATION!!! God it is SOOO simple. I have been doing this 15 years and I fully understand  about hurting a case and I train PD and homicide families to understand both sides

DEVASTATING NEWS RELATED TO CASE

Thanks to all on the 3 weeks across the northwest. Thanks to stories in Wyoming and Washington and people on the road who acknowledged us. Sadly stories had to sTop about a week ago due to devastating news from Tulsa about case. Can't say yet but will announce. All I can do is drive back as quick as I can. DEVASTATED

20TH CARAVAN TO CATCH A KILLER HEADING HOME-SILENCE IS TOO MUCH

Sadly, after being in the quiet media of Missoula Montana, I have decided to head home. A week without stories makes it too costly to stay in hotels and travel farther from OK. Thanks to Cheyenne and Casper Wyoming for making our stories heard across the State. Thanks to the people in Butte and Missoula who saw the car and noted they did, even without your media responding to multiple queries. Not necessarily about our story, but please don't forget all the individual murders and the families that have lost loved ones, have loved ones missing, have cold cases. They don't get the attention that the mass shootings do. and they are as bad a loss. If you know any survivor of homicide or missing, give them a hug and tell them you care. If you know any survivor of homicide or missing share their case across the US, send it to me at therapoet@aol.com. The silence is a loud echo that reverberates inside the heart. IF YOU SEE ME ON THE ROAD, PLEASE EMAIL, CALL, SEND A LETTER TO NATIONAL MEDIA. I NEED IT MORE THAN EVER NOW

What an unbelievable story by the Knoxville News Sentinel and Matt Lakin!!!! His informative but passionate story was such a gift. This photo, I think was from our 2013 visit to Knoxville

16TH CARAVAN TO CATCH A KILLER-MOM''S 185000 MI. MISSION OF LOVE-NOW NEW PHASE W/DNA PHENOTYPE IMAGE OF POSSIBLE SUSPECT

 

I am on my 16th CARAVAN TO CATCH A KILLER  tour's, currently visiting Odessa, TX. These tours are now my 14 year labor of love in honor of murdered daughter, Brittany Phillips (raped/suffocated Tulsa, OK 2004 --10-4-85 to 10-4-04).  (going to El Paso next)

 

 

Tour 16 is the inaugural tour with hood re-wrapped with our new DNA phenotype 3-D image of Brittany's possible killer . Though tours started to: 

*help solve her murder

*educate communities about sexual assault/homicide law change

*giving voice to  unsolved homicides across the US

 

THIS TOUR introduces how  a new forensic tool,  DNA 3-D phenotype image that has given our case new life. Not many PDs are using this yet.  My detective was able to get a grant, submit crime scene DNA to  Parabon Snapshot and within 3 months received an image. Tulsa media coverage of the image generated more than 45 tips in 48 hours

 

Visiting Odessa/other Texas cities  is important for my 16th road trip, (10 years, 185000 miles thru 48 States with 165 media stories in 48 States in  3 different wrapped SUVs) because Odessa and other Texas cities are connected to Oklahoma through crisscross of our highways and because large Border States with vast wilderness can create refuge for criminals. 

 

  CARAVANS were birthed when , regionally in 2007, more than 800 suspects DNA did not match our crime scene DNA (since then 3000 regional suspects & a million in CODIS with no match). Some suggested her killer may have moved on.  I knew I had to get her story beyond OK. Through the unbelievable donation of a wrap to my car (now 3 wraps), CARAVANS BEGAN.

  

It is my hope, now with an image, as I cover the US again, this picture will increase tips.

In each city, I talk to media, stop by police and Sherriff departments, travel around the city talking to people. Along with topics described above, now in the #METOO era, I am pleading for  # HERTOO-(sexual homicide victims that no longer have voice) to get more attention, especially related to laws.

 

These 14 years are a labor of love woven through tears . People met at rest stops, hugs given, thumbs up as someone drives by, people sharing prayers from many different religions or a $20 squeezed into my closed fist, all energize me to keep on. Gazing upon Brittany's smile each day as I step into my car, does, at times, have me tell her story through a veil of tears. Yet it warms my heart knowing Brittany, my dancing pony princess, her long blond curls framing her angelic face, and intense dark brown eyes, stares from the sides of my car, in many ways saying "listen to my story, help protect other families from this never ending loss".
