Summary

After 18-year-old Brittany Phillips was raped and strangled to death in her Tulsa, Oklahoma, apartment in 2004, her mother waited for answers. But Dr. Maggie Zingman is no longer waiting. The mom is driving around the United States in a hard-to-miss vehicle wrapped with her daughter's photo and details about her murder, raising awareness to the case in the hope someone who knows something will come forward. Zingman caught Nancy Grace's attention as she traveled through Atlanta and was invited to the Crime Stories studio to discuss the search for her daughter's killer. They are joined by Cold Case Research Institute director Sheryl McCollum.
