Summary

2011 - Roxbury, Massachusetts. In December of 2011, 61-year-old Gail Miles was brutally murdered in her own home in Roxbury, Massachusetts. As Boston Police work to track down her killer, they realize that Gail is one of their own: a former officer for the nearby Watertown Police Dept, and that her time there was most remembered by the feathers she ruffled by standing up against harassment in the workplace. Gail was also supposed to meet a landlord the night of her murder, and was getting impatient that he had taken all day to show up… Her friends and family believe Gail knew her killer. She wouldn't open her door to just anyone… but over a decade later, police are still trying to answer the same question: who killed Gail Miles? If you have any information about the murder of Gail Miles, please call Boston Police Crimestoppers at 1800-494-TIPS.
