The Murder of Nicole VanderHeyden
This week, we are discussing the story of a young mother named Nicole VanderHeyden, who was murdered after a night out with her boyfriend and other friends. And while police quickly honed in on a suspect, as more information came in, they quickly realized that the most obvious suspect isn't always the correct one.
