Ginger Phillips, also known as Ginger Gover, was 41 when she disappeared from the Puyallup, Washington area in late July 2018. She was last seen by a friend on July 29 after getting help with a flat tire at a gas station and was said to be heading to visit another friend in Eatonville but never arrived. Her green Honda Civic was found abandoned and stripped in a warehouse complex in Puyallup on August 6.

Human remains recovered on September 13, 2018, at a South Hill construction site were later identified as Ginger’s. The Pierce County Medical Examiner determined the cause of death was a gunshot wound to the pelvis, and detectives treated the case as a homicide. Investigators developed a theory that a suspect feared Ginger would provide information about an earlier burglary and fire at an unoccupied house and that fear led to violence.

Does anyone have information about Ginger’s movements in late July 2018 or about the green Honda Civic found on August 6?
