00:11it wasn't just a missing woman it's a missing woman with a two-week-old baby they weren't able
00:19to confirm her whereabouts that morning but anything past that was a huge mystery my first
00:24thought was what did he do to her what has he done when people become obsessed they can escalate to
00:31murder every one of her friends are possible suspects police have a very small window of
00:38opportunity before something really bad could happen the smell of decomposing flesh is coming
00:45from the trunk of the car no one would have expected this kind of an outcome this is not a
00:51crime of passion there was something that was thought out deliberately to lie for nine months
00:57is ruthless it's calculated it's evil to plan this it's disturbing it's insanity
01:21austin is the capital of texas it's a very safe city compared to other major metropolitan cities
01:27and really the crime problem there is more of lesser crimes petty crimes misdemeanors
01:37but on december 12 2019 a patrol officer takes a missing person report
01:44someone named shane curry calls the austin police department and let him know that his fiancee and
01:50his baby who was two and a half weeks old they're missing that right away is going to send us
01:55to
01:55another level of concern so they immediately call for the on-duty detective in the missing persons unit
02:03when investigators arrived on scene they meet shane who had called the police that night and he said
02:09his fiancee heidi broussard was a 33 year old beautiful mother of two they had a son silas he's six
02:16years old and a precious little baby girl who was two and a half weeks old named margo
02:21their son silas was home with shane only heidi and newborn margo they're missing
02:28what's really important in missing people cases is when's the last time the person was seen
02:34you always start to search there so shane laid out the timeline
02:40he told investigators that day started out like most normal days shane got up about 6 a.m and he
02:48got
02:48ready for work and he left for work about 6 30. heidi ended up getting up with both kids and
02:52was
02:52getting silas ready to go to school that morning heidi called him at 8 30 that morning after leaving
02:58the school she said she had dropped off their son that's the last time shane spoke to heidi
03:06shane gets back to his apartment about 2 30 after he's done working for the day
03:12shane finds the apartment completely empty no heidi no baby he initially thought maybe she had just
03:20taken the baby and was visiting somebody in the apartment complex so he starts looking around and
03:28he notices her vehicle in the apartment complex ends up going to her vehicle and finding it unlocked
03:33inside is her purse her wallet and a few other items that heidi would never leave behind
03:40one thing missing was her cell phone shane told us he called heidi gets nothing
03:48but then he realizes hey i better get to the elementary school to pick up my son shane he said
03:55he goes to the elementary school he picks up his son goes back home heidi does not show up
04:04he started to be concerned on why was she not showing up this is unlike her what happened
04:11so he's calling her repeatedly and her phone is just going to voicemail
04:16then he starts making phone calls to her friends her family he calls rachel one of heidi's co-workers
04:24and megan one of heidi's best friends nobody has had any contact with her so he tries her cell phone
04:32again nothing so shane said at that point in time and about 7 30 it was really getting concerned so
04:40he
04:41called the austin police department to report her as missing heidi's case was different it wasn't just
04:49a missing woman it's a missing woman with a two-week-old baby police really stepped into action because of
04:56the age of the baby the urgency of finding this newborn as investigators search the apartment there's
05:03no forced entry in the apartment there's no signs of struggle in the apartment there was nothing out
05:09of place there was nothing you know thrown around the room everything was seemingly normal they didn't
05:16find any forensic evidence that a crime had been committed there
05:22but one of the things that concerned the investigators was that shane said that the baby was having some
05:29issues with taking food and there had to be a formula mixture with breast milk the diaper bag special
05:36food were still in the apartment baby margot had health complications from birth she had jaundice so
05:44heidi would have taken this special formula that margot needed she knows better than to leave all of that
05:49behind what woman takes a two-week-old baby without food without diapers without her purse police would
05:58certainly consider the possibility that since she had so recently given birth there could be a
06:04postpartum complication is she depressed is she suicidal a lot of moms do go through postpartum
06:10depression right after having a child but shane told investigators that heidi was in a really good
06:15place she didn't suffer from postpartum and she was doing really well after the birth of margot
06:20at this point we think this is a legitimate kidnapping of a woman and a baby
06:26so austin police and their detectives immediately do a neighborhood canvas of the apartment complex
06:31to see if anyone had seen anything noticed anything strange but people saw nothing and the apartment
06:39complex didn't have cameras at that point in time we did what's called a reverse 9-1-1 where the
06:489-1-1
06:49system actually calls every telephone number in a specific geographic area to alert them that
06:55someone is missing a baby's missing and there was a press conference and heidi just having a baby it
07:03really grabbed our attention heidi and margot were last seen on thursday december 12th here in austin texas
07:10heidi is a 33 year old white female she stands five foot three 150 pounds if you see heidi or
07:17margot
07:17please contact the austin police department or your local law enforcement agency young mother
07:23suddenly goes missing very young baby missing with her the police are concerned about foul play
07:33the reality is that heidi broussard was an attractive young woman with a small child
07:39she would be a very vulnerable victim if somebody were looking for one
07:45the eye witness saw heidi and baby margot getting inside of a vehicle
07:50the address was given out when the raid was announced and oh my god that was when all hell broke
08:08heidi broussard and her little baby girl who was two and a half weeks old named margot they're missing
08:13and the reverse 9-1-1 search called out about 4 000 of the neighbors but no leads were found
08:23the next day on the 13th the austin police detective started talking to immediate family and heidi's
08:30friends
08:32my friend rachel she called me and told me that heidi was missing i was just like what do you
08:38mean she's
08:38missing i don't think your brain processes what's really going on but when i was told that she never
08:45picked silas up from school i knew that something was wrong your mind goes up the unanswered questions
08:53is she being taken care of is the baby being taken care of is she being fed are they cold
08:59you know are
09:00they alone you just you don't know investigators want to know all the details about heidi who was
09:11she did she have any mental illness is there trouble at home that led them to leave i told the
09:18police heidi rocked being a mom she truly rocked it her kids were everything to her she would absolutely
09:28never leave silas and me knowing the turmoil that her and shane had been in previously
09:37my first thought was what did he do to her what has he done in my experience the largest majority
09:46of
09:47the time when things like this happen it's going to be the spouse the fiancee the boyfriend someone
09:53who is close to the victim so of course the police are going to look at shane first
10:01we grew up in lake charles louisiana when heidi was in her mid-20s she worked at the casino for
10:07a
10:07while living her best life she was a cocktail waitress and had met shane there and fell in love
10:17they had one of those relationships it was a little tumultuous it was back and forth
10:22but pretty early on she found out she was pregnant of course the way we were raised her getting
10:29pregnant out of quote-unquote wedlock was definitely not the way you want to tell your family but she
10:36always wanted to be a mom they moved to austin right before silas was born and they had silas and
10:44nothing else mattered they were together eight years but unfortunately her and shane had broke
10:52up a lot she told me about abuse whether it's financial emotional mental but we all thought
10:59she knows when enough is enough and the last breakup that was it that was going to be it
11:07but then early that year she found out she was pregnant with margo and she told me she wanted
11:14to give it another shot because she wanted her family she wanted the unit and she wanted her kids
11:20to have that come hell or high water she was going to make her family work
11:26it's not unreasonable to wonder if something had re-emerged from the previous conflicts that
11:32they had had that was now creating strife in their relationship again
11:39next shane was brought into austin police department to do a real formal in-depth interview
11:46through the course of the interviews with shane it was obvious there were some troubles in the
11:50relationship but it's natural to have troubles in relationships shane told the police that him and
11:56heidi were in a good place and tells them there was never any physical abuse and the last time he
12:03spoke with her was the day she went missing she was just leaving silas at school she told him what
12:09she did at the school and that she ended up getting three books for silas and she was really excited
12:13to
12:13be able to read to him that night so while they continue speaking with shane investigators need to
12:20verify when heidi had last been seen austin police go through the surveillance from her son's school
12:27and they find footage of her dropping off her son for school she ends up getting caught on the camera
12:33at about 8 12 that morning heidi broussard was last seen in this image released by austin police
12:39smiling and wearing a purple sweatshirt her assumption is that they're alive and the sooner that
12:45we can find them the better so they were able to confirm her whereabouts that morning but anything
12:51past that was a huge mystery now investigators need to find out from shane where he was does he have
13:00an alibi in this case shane said he was at work his boss confirmed that he was at work all
13:06day
13:07as he was supposed to be so there was nothing atypical about his day shane was very helpful
13:14he gave the police his cell phone we could see when she called him that he in fact had talked
13:19to
13:19her on december 12th he had already let them search in the apartment he let them look at the car
13:25so there
13:26was nothing he was holding back his alibis checking out also looking into shane there was nothing that
13:33popped up that said there was any domestic violence that there were any police calls for service at the
13:38address as far as law enforcement was concerned he was not part of hiding being missing so at this
13:46point the police have very little to go on because this child is so young just a few weeks old
13:54has some
13:55medical complications and just needs basic needs taken care of investigators have a very small window
14:00of opportunity before something really bad could happen so i called the chief of the austin police
14:07department and said hey the fbi has a lot of resources we can bring we have the card team
14:14a group of investigators intelligence analysts technicians that focus on child abductions one of
14:22the things we brought to bear in this particular case is something called the fbi's child abduction
14:27rapid deployment team that we deploy at the request of our state and local partners whenever a child
14:33is abducted our investigators move out very quickly to start looking very aggressively where could she
14:41be where could this baby be we need to find heidi and her new baby as soon as possible
14:56heidi and her new baby have been missing for a number of days the fbi card team start looking hard
15:03for heidi
15:04after they speak with him on december 13th investigators moved on from shane the next step once you rule out
15:13a
15:13spouse or a spouse or a partner because you start to look at every one of her acquaintances her family
15:18neighbors everyone she worked with and you really have to start digging in on all of those people as
15:25possible suspects investigators learned that heidi was very bubbly very social and very outgoing she was
15:36someone who had a lot of friends and she was like the go-to of the group i told the
15:42police heidi loves
15:43everybody she takes everybody in she didn't see the red flags in people they said she was very loyal
15:51i mean her friends date back from when she was a teen me rachel and heidi we were just best
15:57friends
15:57and we go to church camp every year we met megan and caressa at church camp in columbus texas
16:05heidi and them became good friends and they've always kept in touch
16:12it's kind of funny when heidi got pregnant with silas we were pregnant at the same time i was
16:18pregnant with my second one and she was pregnant with her first and you know she was so excited
16:22we were both having boys and when heidi had gotten pregnant with margot her best friend megan was
16:30having a baby too and they were excited to be pregnant together and just to have the same due date
16:39heidi was always the cheerleader when she loved you she loved you
16:43and she'd never let you go no matter where anybody lived you know she was always the lifeline
16:51that kept everybody together so when heidi went missing i thought it was either shane
16:58or definitely a stranger because none of heidi's friends would hurt heidi i know it's shane i know
17:07he did it i know it's him it's got to be like who else would it be
17:15even though investigators were able to confirm shane's alibi heidi's friends still were kind of
17:22side-eyeing shane just because they knew heidi and shane had a toxic relationship there was a lot
17:28of speculation around him so i wanted to put together a search team i was like we need to go
17:34find her
17:42i became involved in this case when heidi's loved ones called equi-search because of her
17:50disappearance that search is involved in volunteer search efforts we don't charge a nickel
17:56we'll be part of a search and helping families we're not part of an investigation but many times
18:03we've given them information that's led to some pretty good results i remember talking to heidi's
18:13friends and other family members i talked to a very close friend her name was megan she was telling
18:22me the stories about heidi and shane they were having some problems and she says knowing what i
18:29know about that relationship it wouldn't surprise me if shane did something to her and i said he really
18:37feels oh he's capable and megan said he's more than capable she pointed 100 to shane
18:49so when we started that search in austin area i met with shane met with shane's dad there was many
18:56many volunteers that wanted to get involved so we put together some atvs and some foot searchers
19:04here in austin there's a lot of different terrain that you go looking through you have zilker park
19:09you have all the green belts you have natural waterways i actually marked spots on maps that she
19:17possibly could have walked to or she possibly could have taken a cab too shane and i spent a lot
19:25of
19:25time together driving around kind of looking at different areas everybody reacts different you know
19:32but i never heard his voice sound like he was going to break down and cry his demeanor
19:39just wasn't at all what i thought that it should have been it seemed strange to say the least
19:50wow we were looking for her we were all talking trying to keep up to date with everything
19:56but there was no trace i was just like well will this ever be solved
20:00because it didn't feel like they were getting anywhere
20:05there were some calls that came in with possible sightings but none of them ended up be really
20:10credible after some of the search efforts that we did we haven't found anything we don't have anywhere
20:22else to go
20:23so next an emergency order was filed with heidi's cell phone company to see was the
20:29phone hitting we call it pinging was the cell phone active and hitting somewhere that request
20:34went through and it came back that her phone was either off or at a battery and it had not
20:40pinged
20:40anywhere since pinging at the house on december 12th the day that heidi disappears so he started
20:47canvassing through the neighborhood again because a lot of times what you find is people see things that
20:53they don't know are important until you really jog their brain this time one witness described a four
21:02door sedan of a light color that she saw go around towards the back where heidi's apartment was
21:11then another neighbor actually remembered seeing somebody with the description of heidi and margot
21:16getting inside of a similar vehicle
21:20so we're starting to get a little bit more of a picture of the last time anyone had seen heidi
21:24but when people are missing you're going down different investigative avenues at the same time
21:30as we interviewed more of heidi's friends a couple of people told us that one of heidi's friends
21:35acted odd during the delivery of heidi's baby so investigators go to the hospital and interview delivery staff
21:46the nurse remembered right after heidi gave birth to margot most of the family got to hold the baby
21:51well shane's dad was ready to hold the baby and heidi's friend stepped in and said hold on and
21:57aggressively took the baby from him she acts very possessive with the baby acts very strange in general
22:03and literally takes the baby from the grandfather because she wants to hold the baby
22:11once we got that story of what happened in the maternity room
22:16our behavioral analysis people right away said hey we really got to look at this this could possibly be
22:22a maternal desire type situation maternal desire is a mental state where a woman has an
22:31insatiable drive to acquire a child that's why maternity rooms are so locked down because
22:38unfortunately there's been a number of instances where people have gotten in there and stolen a baby
22:45when we heard how heidi's friend acted with the baby it made us very suspicious about her mental state
22:55now we have a suspicious person our investigators from the card team said we got to go hard on this
23:03we need to figure out who is this woman and where could she be
23:18the police had talked to the hospital staff where heidi gave birth to baby margo the nurses remember
23:27one of heidi's good friends was acting super possessive over margo right after she was born
23:33police were concerned about the possibility of maternal desire which can turn into something that
23:41is not altogether different from what i would call delusional this baby's mine i need this baby i must
23:48have it when people get into that sort of delusional or semi-delusional world reality doesn't matter anymore
23:58and when people become that obsessed and that divorced from reality that can escalate to extreme
24:06violence it can escalate to murder so investigators decided to take this very seriously right from the
24:13beginning so investigators asked shane who in fact was in the hospital room when heidi was delivering
24:20margo and he mentioned megan megan humphrey which was one of her closest friends
24:27once we identify megan as the woman in the maternity ward with the strange behavior we start going back
24:34and re-interviewing people to say what can you tell us about her what's her timeline
24:39and any of these other pieces we have could it fit back to her
24:49so heidi's friends told investigators that megan lived in houston but they still kept in touch
24:54megan was one of heidi's best friends since their early teens but while heidi and megan were really
25:00close friends most of heidi's friends didn't really love megan when heidi introduced us unfortunately
25:07i got a bad vibe from megan i didn't like her right away but heidi's heart was so pure
25:15she loved everybody so i mean she's been friends with her for many many years
25:21according to her friends they just thought megan was a little weird didn't really click with her
25:26could give or take her but heidi was you know the embracer
25:33through the course of re-interviews asking about megan we find out megan announced she's pregnant not
25:40long after heidi announced she was pregnant when she was told about the pregnancy megan was like
25:46we're gonna be pregnant together november 26th the day that margot was born megan came down to austin
25:56megan was about 37 weeks pregnant at this time heidi's friends told police it was remarkable that
26:03she had driven about three hours from houston to austin to be present for the birth of baby margot
26:11and just a few weeks later on december the 8th or the 9th she tells everyone she gave birth to
26:18her
26:18own baby named luna investigators asked her friends did you see a picture of the baby have you seen
26:26this baby and all of them said i haven't seen picture ever wow you're a new mom you're proud of
26:35this baby and you haven't shown a picture so that was very quickly looked at but there's no evidence
26:44that she had a baby at all and she really starts rising on the list of of suspects you start
26:51doing
26:51research and now things start to click she actually has a four-door light-colored sedan like the car that
26:59somebody saw heidi and the baby get into in the parking lot when they went missing investigators
27:06start looking into all the red light cameras in the area as well as license plate readers and their
27:12license plate readers showing her in the area the day that heidi disappears also after her cell
27:18phone records were retrieved her phone had been pinged that day on different cell phone towers that
27:23were located near heidi's apartment so now at this point investigators put together a lineup
27:28of multiple people and megan humphrey and take this lineup back to the neighbor for an eyewitness
27:35account when they showed her megan humphrey the neighbor actually said this person is the person
27:42that she saw heidi and margo getting in the vehicle with on the morning of their disappearance
27:52obviously she is now suspect number one in this case is she going to harm the baby is she going
27:58to run
27:58is she going to do something you don't always want to do an interview right away because obviously the
28:03minute you do an interview they know that they're a suspect and we are very concerned for the safety of
28:10the child so the decision was let's put a surveillance team all around the house in houston to see is
28:17there
28:17any sign of heidi a baby anything strange the texas rangers were called in to assist them with the
28:25surveillance on megan's house in houston texas we see her car in the backyard it fits the four-door
28:34light color of sedan that one witness described to us at a point during the surveillance a man leaves
28:42the house let's follow him see who he is where's he going he goes to target where he is observed
28:49buying baby supplies the texas rangers make the decision hey this is a life safety issue we're
28:56concerned about the health of the baby we're going to intervene right now so the texas rangers grab him
29:02in the parking lot they start asking him questions he identified himself as christopher green
29:08they find out this is megan's ex-boyfriend whom she lives with they asked him if he had a newborn
29:14child and he said he did and they told him we're looking into why heidi as well as her child
29:19are
29:19missing and they show him a picture of baby margo and he said that's my baby that's my baby at
29:26home
29:36investigators stopped christopher green megan's ex-boyfriend whom she lives with
29:41after he leaves target he had a bunch of baby items he says why i'm buying this stuff because my
29:47girlfriend had a baby but the texas rangers show him a picture of the missing baby and he says that's
29:55the baby that's at my house and then they ask him if he was present at the birth christopher green
30:04told investigators that he's an oil field worker when he arrived home from a work trip on december
30:1013th his ex-girlfriend megan had given birth a few days before that while he was gone he said well
30:17why didn't you call me she's like please don't be angry but i ended up having the baby at a
30:22birthing
30:23center obviously if you're the father of a baby it's very surprising that you were not present when
30:29the baby was born the whole story doesn't hold water it doesn't make sense doesn't add up at all
30:35so based on all the information that christopher green gave authorities at that point
30:39they had enough probable cause to go back and enter the property where megan was with the baby
30:49i had been doing podcasting for roughly a year before the heidi case came about it was december 19th
30:57i interviewed her friend caressa to raise awareness about heidi and the baby's disappearance after a
31:04week of heidi being missing i think her friends and family were getting really desperate so we are
31:09talking to heidi's best friend caressa we were live on youtube so everybody is participating in real
31:17time everything of hers was there besides her phone and her keys which is very very odd yeah as the
31:24interview went on someone in the chat had said breaking news they're raiding a home in houston
31:29and that changed everything wait a second you guys we have breaking news northwest harris county
31:34home swarmed by fbi and austin police the address was given out when the raid was announced and
31:42someone in the chat started searching the address of that house and someone found a baby registry megan
31:51humphrey and christopher green oh my god oh my god what what that's megan her best friend
31:59what what oh my god that's megan's house and that was when all hell broke loose i'm over here freaking
32:09out guys sorry oh i'm so sorry caressa i'm so sorry oh thank you i'm here authorities enter the property
32:25where megan was with the baby and rescue the baby some of the agents take this baby to a hospital
32:32to make sure that the baby is okay then they begin to interview megan at the house
32:39megan tells the investigators the baby was her baby girl named luna okay when did you have the baby
32:45where did you have the baby she couldn't tell them where she had the baby how could you not remember
32:51since we were pretty sure this is heidi's baby now where is heidi investigators expanded their search
32:59and they start looking for heidi they are searching everywhere to see if there's any evidence of her
33:07being alive
33:10walking through the backyard immediately one of the texas rangers is struck with this smell
33:16that's coming out of the car as investigators you know that smell they pop the trunk and inside of
33:24the trunk they find a black duffel bag and upon opening the black duffel bag they find a female
33:31deceased pretty quickly they realized based on photos they had this is in fact heidi
33:39although we were very happy to retrieve the baby alive and healthy it's hard to celebrate that when
33:46you know that heidi died
33:50we have a fox news alert for you a dead body and a baby found alive in that search connected
33:57to the
33:57missing mother down in texas heidi broussard and her newborn daughter margot
34:01just i'm watching news coverage and then
34:13you see the stretcher or the body pack
34:19and you know that your friends in them your friends are there
34:28i just remember screaming um and i'm just screaming like she she's gone she's dead
34:41i got a call from my detective says hey i just want to make you aware
34:45that we're i want to hide his friend's house i can't get a lot of information right now but
34:50are taking megan in custody but we do have the baby heidi is deceased
35:01and um just thinking man if i could just see shane right now and just hug him and say i'm
35:07sorry
35:07i'm sorry man i'm sorry once the baby was released from the hospital
35:13and dna testing proved that it was heidi's baby she was returned to the family
35:25based on evidence license plate readers showing her in the area the day that heidi disappears
35:31her cell phone records heidi's baby at her house in houston her car with heidi in the trunk
35:39when you add all that together we know megan is responsible for this crime
35:46i'm angry we're all angry by heidi your best friend is supposed to be the person you trust more than
35:56anybody the houston coroner did an autopsy and declared that heidi was killed by strangulation
36:06authorities charged megan with capital murder and two counts of kidnapping an account of
36:11tampering with evidence a human corpse for putting heidi in the trunk of the vehicle
36:16but megan would never speak with investigators about the details i'm not sure we're ever going
36:21to know the full story behind what happened between heidi and megan but it was pretty obvious there was
36:27a plan that was thought out deliberately over the course of months the timing of megan's announcement
36:35that she was pregnant doesn't seem accidental or coincidental she was probably planning right
36:42from the outset to take heidi's baby from her and the only way that that timeline would work
36:49is if she too became pregnant right around the same time the idea that somebody could lie for
36:55nine months to everybody they love is ruthless it's calculated it's evil
37:04so now at this point investigators must ask how in the world did megan's ex-boyfriend not know this
37:12whole time it sounds very suspicious so we really start to think about was this person part of this
37:21was christopher green planning this with megan
37:35when megan was arrested once they had found heidi and the baby a lot of people questioned how megan's
37:43boyfriend could not know but when the investigators talked to megan's ex-boyfriend the story that he
37:51told them was plausible he had broken up with megan months earlier right before megan announced she was
37:59pregnant within days of the now ex-boyfriend kicking her out of the house she comes back and says hey
38:06i'm pregnant and he allows her to move back in they were sleeping in separate rooms they weren't being
38:15intimate with one another so he was clueless he had not seen her naked and could not confirm that she
38:22was pregnant so he took it on her word obviously megan's boyfriend was investigated thoroughly and although
38:30it looks very strange it was determined that he was truthful and he was proven to have nothing to do
38:37with this crime this is a textbook case of maternal desire where megan was envious of her friend for
38:48having a baby getting pregnant everything that went with it she consciously made the decision i'm going
38:55to kill my best friend to take her baby because that's what i want looking back this is where i
39:03think the story started megan's boyfriend chris he was breaking up with her she's got to figure out
39:14how to make him stay what's the easiest way to keep somebody is to tell him you're pregnant when heidi
39:22first
39:22announced her pregnancy with the baby megan told everybody that she was pregnant too then over the
39:29course of the subsequent months she faked a pregnancy she gained a lot of weight she stuffed her belly to
39:39show that she was getting bigger and bigger every single month she created a baby registry and then later
39:45had a baby shower on november 26th heidi gives birth and megan is there with her and then a little
39:53over
39:54a week later megan tells all of her friends that she gave birth to a baby girl named luna on
39:59december 12th
40:00early in the afternoon megan comes to visit heidi at her department complex we don't know exactly how
40:09megan got heidi down to the car but somehow using that friendship megan got heidi to bring the baby
40:15down and see her investigators think that after megan got heidi in the car she strangled her and drove
40:22back to houston with heidi's body and the baby the next day when megan's ex-boyfriend came back home
40:31she introduced baby margot to him as his child
40:39to think that this was planned out over a nine month period that she was going to do away with
40:44her
40:44friend just to get her baby and never have one thought that this might not be a good idea is
40:51crazy to me
40:54we did lay hottie to rest right before christmas and she had the absolute most beautiful funeral
41:01i saw shane at the funeral and i said i want to let you know that i blamed you i
41:07had to admit this to
41:08him and it sucked he was just like it's okay it's okay he was like everybody thought it you know
41:15you're
41:15not the only one you aren't alone megan never went to trial for this case she actually accepted a plea
41:22deal
41:23megan was sentenced to 55 years in prison no chance of parole and no chance to appeal her case
41:32you know what is justice justice is only a word families never get over it it's just a word to
41:41hopefully comfort us there's a lot of evil in this world and it just makes you take a step back
41:50and
41:51look around i mean she thought that this person was her best friend for 20 years
41:57i can't even imagine she took the mother of two children those children will never have a mother
42:03now she destroyed an entire family and it really breaks my heart to think about that
42:13heidi was
42:17a light in everybody's life she was a good person a good friend
42:22she had a laugh that was unmistakable and she wanted to make everybody's day a little brighter
42:31we all want to keep our memory alive because heidi never missed the opportunity to take somebody in
42:38and make them feel special and that's just but that's who she was
