Family of slain student takes out ads

MADISON -- The family of a Madison college student who was killed last year isn't giving up its efforts to find her killer.

Relatives of Brittany Zimmermann have placed ads on a Madison billboard and inside Metro Transit buses. They're hoping the ads will encourage anyone with information on her 2008 death to come forward.

Zimmermann was a student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She was stabbed in her apartment while calling 911. The operator didn't send police to investigate and said she didn't hear the scream or sounds of a struggle that are audible on the call.

Jean Zimmermann, of Marshfield, said today would have been her daughter's 23rd birthday. She said the ads are the greatest gift she could give under the circumstances.
