Is she your accomplice? where was pam philips? turns out, she may have outsmarted everyone by leafing the united states just a month before authorities filed arrest warrants for her and ron. she took what we believe was an innocent trip to switzerland to visit her daughter. and she just decided i m not coming back? i think when the news broke, she made a conscious decision it would be best for her to stay in europe. but if you think she was living rough as a fugitive, think again. our cameras caught it first hand, when dateline tracked her down in february 2009. we found her living in the beautiful lakeside town of lugano, switzerland. it s switzerland s version of monte carlo. pam and gary s daughter lois, just a little girl when gary died, was now a college student there. we discovered pam living in a $5,000 a month apartment. and she d made a new friend.
