Jessica Heeringa: A new twist revealed

The woman who provided police with their biggest clue in the Jessica Heeringa disappearance — the description that led to the sketch of a possible suspect — has a close relationship with a person later identified as a person of interest in the case, Target 8 has learned.

They are brother and sister — and the brother, his family said, had recently dated Heeringa.

Their father told Target 8 that detectives harassed his son, who is not being named due to his connection to the investigation, early on in the investigation.

“They just kept calling him in, calling him in,” said the father, who is not being named by Target 8. “At one time, I guess, he was the No. 1 suspect.”

The brother, according to his father, had recently rented an apartment, hoping Heeringa would move in with him.

“And she didn’t move in,” the father said.
