Summary

In April of 1994, an 18-year-old woman was abducted from her job in upstate New York. After rumors spread that she had been buried in the woods, and the potential wrongful imprisonment of the prime suspect, police revealed that the young woman was hiding pertinent information from her inner circle that may have led to her death. This is the story of Heidi Allen. BONUS EPISODES Apple Subscriptions: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/going-west-true-crime/id1448151398 Patreon: patreon.com/goingwestpodcast CASE SOURCES 1.
