    86: MURDER: Brenda Gail Lambert

    On July 26, 1992, 22-year-old Brenda Gail Lambert hosted a birthday party at her home in Bluewell, West Virginia. It was her youngest child’s first birthday, and the house was filled with family—including Brenda’s estranged husband, Raymond.

    As the night wore on, tensions rose and guests began to leave. Hours later, Raymond showed up at Brenda’s sister’s door, visibly shaken, saying he couldn’t find Brenda.

    She was never seen or heard from again.

    More than three decades have passed, and Brenda has never been found. But her family is still searching—and they believe they know what happened to her, and where she might be.

    Brenda Gail Lambert was last seen on July 26, 1992, at her home off Route 7, also known as Windmill Hill Road, in Bluewell, West Virginia. She was 5’2” and weighed around 110 pounds. Brenda had shoulder-length black curly hair and dark blue eyes.

    If you have any information about Brenda’s disappearance, please contact the Mercer County Sheriff’s Office at (304) 487-8364.

  • 85: MURDER: Brittany Phillips

    85: MURDER: Brittany Phillips
    Apr 21 2025
    On September 27, 2004, 18-year-old Brittany Phillips had what appeared to be a typical day in the life of a college student. She spent time with friends and called her mom later that night to catch up. But after that phone call, no one saw or heard from Brittany again.

    She didn’t show up for her classes, she didn’t check in with friends, and she didn’t return any of her mother’s calls. Days passed with no word, until September 30, when one of her friends called the police.

    When officers entered the apartment, they found Brittany on the floor next to her bed, with her head positioned toward the foot of the mattress. She had been strangled and possibly sexually assaulted. There were no obvious signs of forced entry, but detectives collected DNA from the scene, hoping that somewhere in that evidence was the identity of her killer.

    Now, more than twenty years later, that DNA has still not resulted in any arrests, leaving her family still seeking justice.

    18-year-old Brittany Phillips was last heard from at around 9:00 p.m. on the night of September 27, 2004, while speaking with her mother on the phone. She was supposed to attend an 8:00 a.m. class the following morning, but she never showed up.

    Days later, on the night of September 30, Brittany was found dead in her apartment on East 65th Street in Tulsa, Oklahoma. She had been strangled and may have been sexually assaulted.

    Anyone with information about Brittany’s case is urged to contact the Tulsa Police Department’s Cold Case Unit by email at TPDColdCaseHomicide@cityoftulsa.org.
