when police interviewed david nixon s live-in girlfriend, tracey frame, she claimed david was headed to las vegas on the night he disappeared. tracey also revealed she didn t have an alibi for the night david was murdered. she said she was at home alone. we, as a family, didn t really know much of anything. he didn t bring her up. i never spoke to her on the phone. she was a mystery to all of us really. a background check revealed the two had an interesting past. the couple met at a lake party shortly after david s second wife left him. tracey was a successful accountant with no children. shortly after they got together, david bought two matching cars, a black lexus for tracey, a white one for him. and because he owed back taxes
it was discovered that he had some gambling debts and he had some troubles with the irs. tracey consented to a search of the house she shared with david. we searched the home with luminol. we did a search with cadaver dogs. they found no evidence of blood, and the cadaver dogs didn t find anything either. but investigators did find one possible clue. as they searched the house, they found electric blanket controls, but they didn t find an electric blanket, which was kind of odd, because they found david wrapped in an electric blanket. a day later, police found david s white lexus abandoned in a supermarket parking lot within walking distance of their house. there was no blood or sign of violence in the car, but something immediately caught investigators attention.
