  • 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.

  • 84: MISSING: Kelly Dove
    Apr 18 2025
    On the night of June 17, 1982, 20-year-old Kelly Bergh Dove agreed to cover an overnight shift at the Imperial gas station in Harrisonburg, Virginia. She wasn’t supposed to be working, but one of her sisters asked if she could switch—and Kelly said yes.
    In the early morning hours of June 18, Kelly called 911 three times, reporting that a man had been harassing her and making obscene calls from the payphone outside. Her final words to the dispatcher were urgent and terrified: “Please hurry, he’s back.”
    When police arrived just one minute later, Kelly was gone.
    More than four decades have passed, and Kelly has never been found. Her family is still waiting for answers—and still holding on to hope that someone, somewhere, knows what happened to Kelly Bergh Dove?

  • 83: MISSING: Oakley Carlson
    Apr 11 2025
    On February 10, 2021, four-year-old Oakley Carlson was seen for the last time in Grays Harbor County, Washington. She wasn’t reported missing until ten months later, on December 6, when a school principal called in a welfare check. When police spoke to Oakley’s biological parents, Andrew Carlson and Jordan Bowers, they gave conflicting stories and couldn’t explain where she was.

    An investigation was immediately launched, and what followed was a series of disturbing revelations—allegations of abuse, drug exposure, and medical neglect, all at the hands of Oakley’s biological parents. And yet, despite multiple investigations and searches, Oakley has never been found. Now, more than four years later, the question remains—what happened to Oakley Carlson?

    Oakley Carlson was last verifiably seen on February 10, 2021. At the time, she was four years old. She stood three feet tall, weighed around 50 pounds, and had brown eyes and brown hair. Today, she would be eight years old.

    If you have any information about Oakley’s whereabouts, you’re asked to contact the Grays Harbor Sheriff's Office at 360-964-1729 or Crimestoppers at 800-222-8477. There is currently a $100,000 reward for information leading to her discovery.

    If you don’t have information, but still want to help, you can share Oakley’s story and her flyer, which you can find at justiceforoakley.wixsite.com/home. You can also join the Facebook group “Oakley Carlson – Oakville, Washington”, and sign her petition at Change.org/justiceforoakley.

Derrick is one of my favorites in every format!

Very knowledgeable and respectful; detailed. Derrick is one of my 3 favorites in any format, one of the other 2 being Stephanie Harlowe, who he does Crime Weekly with. Kendall Rae is right there too. I appreciate all of your thoughtful work, Derrick!

Awesome Person, Awesome Podcast

I found Derrick through crime weekly. I will be a faithful follower of anything he or Stephanie does! I love how they make true crime with a purpose rather than just sensationalizing other people's tragedy. Your work is intended to help people whether to help solve cases or help others learn how to protect themselves. I am a huge fan and will continue to follow every episode.

Great podcast!

Love it, I can't wait to watch you develop this one as you have all your other endeavors. This is perfect for me to listen to on audible in between books. Sometimes I want something short in between books and this fits perfectly. Thank you and good luck!
