TX - Heidi Broussard, 33 Found Deceased, & Margo Carey, 2 weeks, Found Alive Austin, 12 Dec 2019 #6

Sheesh, when pregnant, you need to be aware of husbands and fiance's and baby Daddies killing you. (Which nearly happened to me-husband). Now we have to worry about best friends too???
Th8s world is crazy.

I come unglued when I see local parents posting on facebook needing care for an infant in their home. References required. It sends me over the edge. Seriously who posts this stuff and doesn’t realize the danger?

It sounds like she was planning this for several months at the very least, so I think this is the most likely possibility.

I’m still stunned that she apparently just left the body in the trunk of her car, behind her house for a week. Like, what?

I thought the same, too busy to dispose? Talk about a lax criminal. Unless body was moved back into car? Okay, now, please forgive me for talking about the more graphic details. When was Heidi strangled is what I want to know? Before going into the trunk? After?


"On Friday afternoon, Harris Co. Institute of Forensic Sciences positively identified the body as that of Heidi Broussard. The cause of her death was also determined to be “ligature strangulation,” which is defined as a “type of strangulation that occurs with the use of mass that is not the body weight.” An example of this kind of death is being strangled by a rope."

There is ANOTHER MAN who thinks she may be his. From Louisiana where she is from.

I'm trying to think, was his interview in an MSM article? I thought there was a video on here, but I can't be certain- it was on Youtube- he emailed the person who interviewed him.

Does anyone know if that link was allowed here? It would explain to others what this is all about.

I'm 11 weeks pregnant with my first baby and this makes me scared to tell anyone I'm pregnant!

RIP Heidi

I am in know why trying to tell you what to do. I am not FB saavy. Please be careful posting baby info and congrats on becoming a mommy in waiting.

some fakers use a pillow or there are even fake pregnant bellies for sale on the internet

I read here in a prior case there’s something called a moonbump? Or something like that?

 

[Winterhike]

I wonder if HB could have been threatened into climbing into the trunk of the car herself? Sounds insane, of course, but maybe she would have done it if MF (or an accomplice) had the baby in her hands and was threatening to kill her right there if HB didn't do exactly what she said? Maybe she was strangled in the trunk thereafter.

I have heard of them, I wouldn't know how the heck to find it.

Seriously always be mindful of your surroundings and don’t make eye contact or conversation with strangers. Get a taser and pepper spray! Take your SO with you wherever you venture. Congrats!

This photo of MF’s car seems like it was pulled halfway into garage as if loading or unloading something.

jmo

Edit Makes me wonder if Heidi made it to Houston and was strangled in the home.

BBM:

I don't believe that she lied.

Here's the harsh reality:

It sure looks and sounds like Heidi was a victim in multiple respects, although the crime we're focused on talking about here is obviously her abduction and murder.

I'm just profoundly saddened by the fact that it appears she may have been victimized in other ways as well.

JMO.

Well worded, thank you!

It was in a Youtube video

Who hasn't heard of escape latches in trunks?

All very good thoughts.
Also, what is it that they are looking for in the body of water?? I was thinking gun. But, if she was strangled, then there's no gun.
Hmmm.....

The more cases I see like this, I’d want SS#, references from every employer (as well as every family member, your dog, cats, neighbors) a blood sample and 17 nanny cams. Here is a link on the plan for that sweet baby, as I know some have been worried.

It's major reach indeed.


I don't know...? I think it would be good for Silas to be with his dad and his big sister, because that's his normal. Having a probably confused and scared 6-year-old changing his routines more than he needs to doesn't seem like such a great idea. Also, if he's staying at a hotel with Heidi's parents (which, I don't know if that's the case, but they don't live in Texas) that's not a very stable situation. He needs his bedroom, a place to do his homework. Now, if Shane asked Heidi's parents to keep Silas for a little bit so he could be his head on the right place and get back on his feet, that's different. I don't doubt that Shane is having a really hard time, but I can't see how Heidi's parents could be doing any better.
There was no name change. The "friend" that killed Heidi and took Margo told someone that she had just had a baby, a girl named Luna Mae. We know Luna Mae doesn't exist, she's not real. There's only Margo.[/

I would tend to agree. I was pretty outraged in the Greywind case that the baby spent so much time in foster care. It was ridiculous to me and damaging. Once they ID’d her it seemed detrimental to keep her from all family.

However, In the case of an older child like S, sometimes being with a parent isn’t actually what’s normal for the child, if only one was acting as the caretaker. Regardless, it seems the family is working all of that out.

I wonder how lifelike the prosthetic bellies feel? Do they have operations where you can press a button for a heartbeat or kicking so the people you're manipulating have an easier time believing you're pregnant?

You can find anything on the web, even positive pregnancy tests.

Did he never see her naked, caress her belly, feel a heartbeat or a kick, go to an ultrasound, talk or sing to the baby inside? You know...the normal things expectant fathers do.

Recently learned on another case about pregnancy bras and maternity camisoles that pregnant women wear to sleep which are form-fitting for support. (In my day it was pregnancy belts for back support). I could see how the camisole would easily disguise a prosthetic belly.

One thing I can take to the bank on this heinous crime is once the cell door clinks closed on MF in Travis County in a few hours she is not walking out the front door of jail on bond.

Crazier things have happened,so I do hope you are right.

 

[Steelslady]

Corporate needs to se up a college fund for Silas and Margot. At least set up a fund for them to have grief counseling over losing their mother. IMO

Geeze, I think they're doing amazing offering their employees who worked with Heidi counseling. I wish they offered that at one of my work places when a co-worker of ours was murdered to which to this day, her murderers are still walking around free. Counseling is expensive, and it's a generous offer.

I am sure they will do something for the kids eventually, but it is nice to see them take care of their employees, too. It is very traumatizing, even if you only worked an hour a week with someone by a shift overlapping.

So Tim Miller from Equisearch spoke to the monster just prior to Heidi being found.

Tim Miller of EquuSearch said he was shocked to learn that Heidi Broussard's close friend was the suspect in her disappearance. | abc13.com

”How in the world could this person sound so convincing?" asked Miller. "Now, (she's) being held on kidnapping and abuse of corpse charges. I don't know. It's still kind of like in shock."”

Wow, she even fooled Tim...
