Season 4 Episode 11: Jessica Briggs......Solved or Not?

On May 24, 1989, the murdered body of 16 year old Jessica Briggs was pulled from the Portland Harbor in Maine. Her ex-boyfriend, Anthony Sanborn Jr., would end up being convicted of her murder in 1992. After spending 27 years of a 70 year sentence in jail, Anthony was released on bail in 2017. He is still convicted of her murder.

On this episode of Invisible Tears our team talks about Jessica's murder. This case was brought to our teams attention from both the profiler of the Connecticut River Valley Serial Killings, John Philpin, and the investigator, producer and host of Dark Valley, Jennifer Amell.

As we discuss what is know, we talk about similarities between Jessica's case and the Connecticut River Valley Serial Killings and differences. While this case is technically solved, we have some questions on whether or not is should be.

If you have information on Jessica's case, we would love to hear from you. Contact us directly through email at [email protected] or through any one of our social media platforms in our linktree below.
