Molly and Colt

[Zone 7] Chasing the Truth: The Molly and Colt Case | Paula Fielder

by

On July 7, 2013, 17-year-old Molly Miller and 22-year-old Colt Haynes disappear in Love County after a car chase with police.

The car was driven by a friend, James Con Nipp. Police lost the vehicle somewhere in the area of Long Hollow Rd. and Oswalt Rd in Love County, Oklahoma. Miller and Haynes disappear after the pursuit. Nipp was prosecuted for the car chase in 2014, but no one has been charged in the disappearances of Colt and Molly.

In this episode of Zone 7, Crime Scene Investigator, Sheryl McCollum, talks with Paula Fielder, Molly’s cousin. Together, they explore the role of law enforcement and the Chickasaw Nation, emphasizing the need for increased attention to the case

. A chilling find in a ravine and a call to check DNA evidence build suspense, leading to an anticipation-filled conclusion with Paula’s announcement of a 10-year remembrance event at Love County Courthouse.

If you have any information about this case call 800-522-8017 or submit a tip online at tips@osbi.ok.gov

There will be a candlelight vigil for Molly and Colt held at the Love County courthouse on July 8, 2023, from 6-9 pm.  Anyone who is interested in celebrating the memory of Molly and Colt is welcome.
