Two weeks after she went missing, 31-year-old Brittany Ann Miller still has not been found and the search for her goes on spearheaded by the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department.
Sheriff Patrick Ray said search efforts have been conducted by ground, air, and on the lake but so far to no avail. An investigator of the District Attorney General’s Office and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation are also assisting in the case
“Since the missing person report came in July 4, we have done grid searches around her property where she lives and also other property around there. The grid searches are conducted using officers on-foot and in all-terrain vehicles. The Smithville-DeKalb County Rescue Squad has been instrumental in helping us do that. We also had cadaver and tracking dogs from the Rutherford County Sheriff’s Department and Murfreesboro Police Department come down and we had StormPoint Emergency Response deploy a drone to do an aerial search. The Tennessee Highway Patrol also did fly over helicopter searches and the Rescue Squad even conducted water searches using sonar around boat ramps and other locations on the lake,” said Sheriff Ray.
“It is still an on-going missing person case. If anyone has information as to Miller’s whereabouts, please give central dispatch a call at 615-215-3000 or phone the sheriff’s department’s crime tip line at 615-464-6400.
According to Sheriff Ray, Miller was last seen on July 4th around 4:00 p.m. at her home on Hurricane Ridge Road, Smithville. At the time she was reportedly wearing a black tee shirt possibly saying “DCHS Tigers”, black shorts knee length, and black tennis shoes with black “no show” socks. A white woman, Miller is 5 feet, 4 inches tall and weighs 150 pounds. Her eyes are blue and she has dark brown shoulder length hair. She also wears black frame glasses and has a tattoo of “Adam” across her forearm and “Tyler” on her right ankle.
Miller has been listed with the National Crime Information Center as a missing person.
