His friends say he was a fierce baseball and swimming competitor that strived to make others laugh and wanted to be friends with everyone.  In July 1989, just after high school graduation, Scott Phillips worked at a roofing company for his summer job before leaving for his freshman year in college in August.  Also working at that roofing company was his classmate, Matthew Miller.  When Scott accepted an invitation from Matthew to join him for an afternoon of three-wheeling and target shooting in the swamps of the Chickahominy River, it was a fatal mistake.  Only one of the boys exited the swamp alive that day. #frenemies #AK47S #hidingabody #partialconfession #halftruth #violence #autopsy #causeofdeath #medicalexaminerreport #murderinvestigation #milliondollarpoundcake #killavanilla #karendevanie #annescott #jealousy #psychiatricevaluation #smalltownmurder #redemption Indie Pod spotlight: The MILF and Me podcast - Ya gotta hear this awesome podcast!
