The fiancé of the murdered
Texas mom found stuffed into a car trunk and their baby stolen from her refused to believe what he was seeing on TV as the police found her body, his best friend has revealed.
[…]
He was with his best friend MQ as a local news helicopter showed cops surrounding a house and a silver Nissan belonging to Broussard's long-time friend Magen Fieramusca.
[...]
MQ also said the FBI asked Carey repeatedly about Fieramusca before they and other law enforcement officers swooped on her suburban Houston home.
Initially, Quintanilla told true crime podcast
The Critical Kay, which has been following the case closely, that Carey thought the raid unfolding before his eyes was fake news and some sort of 'media' stunt.

By this time, Broussard and the couple's newborn daughter had been missing for a week. Carey had made two tearful appeals and spoke repeatedly to police, Texas Rangers and FBI agents.

'I got a gut feeling and started feeling sour about it. Shane came out the room. I started asking questions like, ''Shane, just sit down because this information is a little much''.
'He sat down next to me, and first off, I asked him if he knew a silver Nissan. I showed him a picture and he said no.

'They said the medical examiners came out. There was a body in the trunk, there's a baby there. I asked him, ''who's Magen?''. He said ''wait, what are you talking about?''
'I said ''look man, they've found Heidi in the trunk of this vehicle that's been parked in the back yard of this house.''
'He was like ''shut the up man, don't talk to me, don't tell me this. Turn your phone off right now. This is the media.''
[...]
MQ continued: 'I said ''Shane, I love you man, I love you to death. This is breaking news. Why else would the police, Rangers, FBI, be at this house? It would be one thing if it was just Houston. But this might be really true.''
'He didn't want to believe me. He was star struck kind of. He said ''don't tell me this s**t man, and his knees buckled a little bit.'
MQ told the podcast that Carey's father, Ty, rushed over, having also heard the news about his intended daughter-in-law, and tried to console Carey.
[…]
MQ said Broussard's mother, Tammy, had been staying with them at their apartment helping to look after her daughter and new granddaughter, and they were all excited with the new member of their family.

'They even named the baby after Shane's grandma Margot,' he said.
'Shane wears a pendant around his neck with the diamond ring that was his grandma's. He wears a silver necklace that has a stone in the middle.'

'There was a second round of interviews with detectives once the FBI agents were involved,' the 29-year-old told the podcast.
'They've been drilling him about this woman named Magen, over and over.
'They knew something before. Monday [December 16] was the day he did that interview. He said they were drilling him with questions about anything to do with Magen. They brought her up multiple times.'
