Case 146: Brittany Phillips
Added 2020-06-06 06:44:07 +0000 UTCIn 2003, 17-year-old Brittany Phillips was thrilled when she received a full scholarship to study chemistry at Eckerd College in Saint Petersburg, a coastal city in Florida’s Tampa Bay region. Her mother, Doctor Maggie Zingman, had attended the same college in the 1970s and excitedly helped her daughter prepare for the interstate move from their hometown of Tulsa, Oklahoma.
