Dozens of prostitutes from the Bunny Ranch in Reno Nevada say they are on their way to Oklahoma City to demand justice for former co-worker Brooke Phillips.

Phillips was one of four people and two unborn babies killed in the so-called "Cathouse" murder case in 2009. Those who were close to Phillips during her time at the Bunny Ranch say they are "enraged" after learning the gruesome details of how Phillips was killed. 

Phillips, known as Hayden Brooks on the show, was back in Oklahoma because she was pregnant.

Denny Phillips and Russel Lee Hogshooter are currently on trial for what prosecutors say was drug-related killing. Prosecutors say Phillips and the two other women were murdered because they were witnesses.

“It’s the worst day in the 61-year history of the Bunny Ranch and it lives on,” said Dennis Hof, owner of the Bunny Ranch. “It’s not going away.”

Now it's the details that are coming out in trial that has Hof and Phillips' close friends and former bunny sister upset. A witness in the case recently testified Phillips had been murdered execution style and forced to her knees before being shot in the head.

“I cried for two days, been home a lot this month,” said Caressa Kisses, Phillip’s friend. “[It] makes no sense whatsoever. She would hurt nothing.”

Caressa, along with Hof and about a dozen other prostitutes from the Bunny Ranch, say they are so upset they are headed to Oklahoma City to stand up for their friend.

“I want to look this guy in the eye and see what the hell really happened here and support her,” said Hof.

Hof says they are trying to get here before the trial wraps up. We're told that should be by the end of this week.
