Details of Disappearance

Phillips was last seen when he was dropped off at his home in the 300 block of 5th Avenue north in Amory, Mississippi on June 4, 2011. He has never been heard from again.

In March 2019, Jeffery Dewayne Kennedy was charged with first-degree murder in Phillips's case. He was already serving a ten-year sentence on unrelated methamphetamine charges at the time. A photo of Kennedy is posted with this case summary. Little has been released about the case against him.

Phillips's body has never been found. Foul play is suspected in his case due to the circumstances involved.
