About our guest: Denise Huskins In March 2015, Denise and her boyfriend at the time, now husband Aaron Quinn, were victims in a home invasion. The intruders bound them up with zip ties, blinded them with blackout goggles, and forced them into a closet. Denise was then kidnapped. Aaron was able to break free later to call the police. Aaron told the police that Denise was being held ransom for two payments of $8,500. The Vallejo police never took him seriously. The police had his phone turned off where they could have had Denise’s location traced to be saved. Denise was then dropped off two days later by her family in Huntington Beach at her parents' house. The police and media did not believe them naming Denise the real-life gone girl.
