On November 8th, 1988, Brandy Hutchins, a 14-year beloved daughter, told her friends and family that she was pregnant with her boyfriend's child.

Tragically, just four days later, she was discovered murdered in the Root cellar of an abandoned house in Colhill, Arkansas.

During the police investigation at the house, they found a piece of paper with a positive pregnancy

test result next to Brandy's body.

However, when Brandy's autopsy results came back, they revealed

that she was not pregnant and had never been. It turned out that Brandy had not been honest

about her pregnancy. After learning this, the police suspected that the fake

positive pregnancy test might have played a role in her death. They focused their

attention on two suspects, including Brandy's boyfriend, but unfortunately they never found enough evidence to make an arrest.

It's been more than 35 years since Brandy was killed, and investigators are still searching

for answers. So, Hey, welcome back to Detective Perspective. My name is Derek

Levasser. I'm a licensed private investigator and former police detective.

Each week I'll be covering an unsolved case and story format. I'll then give you my perspective on the investigation

and provide contact information for the individuals or organizations connected to the case

so that if you have any tips, you can contact them directly and maybe you can help solve a case.

So if you're someone who's interested in true crime specifically unsolved cases and you

would like to hear my opinion on those investigations, please consider subscribing whether you're watching on YouTube

or listening on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or whatever platform you use.

Okay, so Brandy Hutchins, there's good news and bad news about this case. The good news is we talk a lot about

windows of opportunity and the window in which Brandy could have been killed is a pretty small window. Yes, it took a couple

days to find her, but the area in which this all went down, the suspect pools pretty small.

That's a good thing.
