, there could be a new public lead in the case of the murdered titular 12-year-old. As least, that’s what many may hope after the new St. Lawrence County district attorney admitted a new tip earlier this spring. Garbus says she would do a follow-up to her doc if need be, but she admits that after her experience getting to know the Potsdam police for the project, she doesn’t think it’s likely.

Murray and another officer, Gary Snell , interrogated Hillary after conducting a joint interview with Phillips’ mother Tandy and John Jones, who was not only her ex-boyfriend but also a sheriff’s deputy at the time of the crime, and later briefly brought under suspicion because he was seen on tape by Phillips just before the murder.

And that was on what Garbus wanted to shine a larger light with this project. After all, she notes, “the ‘Justice for Garrett’ campaign became ‘Get Nick Hillary.’ They were always, always intertwined. There was very little energy around anything else in this case.” “The Phillipps family was victims of prosecutorial misconduct, as well as Nick,” says Garbus. “The original DA did not feel that she could mount a case, and Mary Rain mounting the case put them through an enormous amount of hope, and then disappointment.”
