me, what do you do? you just keep fighting. heidi allen was sweet, spirited and supersmart. she took a job here to earn cash for college. she wanted to be responsible. she was working the early shift on easter sunday and that s when she vanished. i go to the store and i say i can t find heidi. they notice someone wrestling with someone in a van. it became the two brothers did it together. mystery solved? maybe not. years later during a chance encounter they said to us do you really want to know what happened to her? a horrifying story. he said i grabbed her like this and old case blown wide open. i said we can t let this go. two women teaming up for the truth. if you think i m going to walk away, you are mistaken. uncovering an astonishing twist. attach was a photograph from heidi allen it had a code name julia roberts. a teen with a secret identity, did she also have the secret enemy. they wanted to shut her up, permanently. welcome
then a couple of months past, they had brought in a criminal profiler with the fbi behavioral science unit, someone who would litter correctly profiled the oklahoma city bomber. but in this instance, clint van zandt was the agent of the unit who was assigned to the heidi allen case in upside new york, his case look for someone with a history of violence and someone obsessed with the case. the person who committed this is somebody who was really interested the community was interested in the case but this is more interest obsessed. could not let it go. this is somebody who would be saving newspaper articles. and there would be many newspaper articles decades of them at that, the case of heidi allen was just getting started. coming up a stunning twist, the killer seems to out-himself. he says yes, i killed this girl. he gives it up? he gives it up. when dateline continues. when dateline continues
