"That led us to Pittsburgh PD on April 23," Garrett said. "We went down to the archives...and this 78-year-old detective...he brings out a carton with a file for a man named Abdullah Muhammad. A detailed genealogy report revealed Hill (aka Muhammad) started his new secret life in Pennsylvania. That's where files showed Hill was shot and killed in 1983 by a man named Vernon Phipps, the brother of another one of Hill's victims." So Vernon was known by police to have killed him. But what happened to Vernon? Did he die in prison?

This news story leaves out a few missing puzzle pieces, so here is some additional information. I was able to locate some articles that provided this: *”Through genealogical evidence left with his victims, detectives were able to knock on the doors of six contacts Tommy Lee Hill had in Pittsburgh. All of them had their own stories of Hill molesting or raping family members. Through these contacts, law enforcement discovered Hill had changed his name during his time in Pittsburgh. This brought them to Pittsburgh authorities, where they met a 78-year-old detective who had studied the case for years. He showed them photos of a man named Abdula Muhammad. He was killed on December 4, 1983. Hill was shot in the back of the head by a man named Vernon Phipps after Hill apparently molested his sister.”* How police were able to link Vernon to Hill’s murder - I have no idea. I also couldn’t find any information that clarifies if he was ever convicted for the murder or even if Vernon is still alive. If he is alive, I hope he’s doing okay. He provided justice for his sister, and the rest of the survivors that Hill harmed. I hope that all of the survivors know that this was NEVER their fault, and I pray they have found peace and healing and are leading happy lives. Vernon Phipps saved so many more children from enduring the agony that Hill had created.

"That led us to Pittsburgh PD on April 23," Garrett said. "We went down to the archives...and this 78-year-old detective...he brings out a carton with a file for a man named Abdullah Muhammad. It was brought to our attention that the gentleman who had fled our authorities had raped so many kids here in Grand Rapids back in the 70s and 80s." Shaw would later confirm through photos that Muhammad was in fact Tommie Lee Hill, but justice for Shaw was unknowingly already served. Years before investigators arrived in Pittsburgh, Hill was shot in the back of the head on Dec. 4, 1983, after allegedly touching the sister of Vernon Phipps, according to Garrett. "So he got his own level of street justice it seems," Garrett said. Don't know what happened to Mr. Phipps but this is to fill in the gap of the story.

And no mention of the brother killing him other than the info written on the thumbnail graphic? Is the brother still alive ? How did police find out ? What? She didn’t know her brother killed him? Where did they find the body ? What ?

It's a guy from Pittsburgh Vernon Phipps. After my research, his Facebook pop up resembling a older man where he's alive and well if that's the same guy. I'm from there so I'm familiar from where he is from, I might know somebody that know of him because the black community is small in that city lol. We don't play no games when you violate ours so I'm not surprised 🤷🏾

Seriously? What don't you get?? She is being formal to distance herself from him. She knows he's a monster. She knows better than you do just how monstrous he is. And do you think it's surprising that a severely traumatized 12 year old girl was not able to give birth to a healthy baby?
