And he just didn't want to talk and wanted to hide.

And he was actually hiding a lot more than she thought.

He hadn't paid their tax bill in so long that they were at risk of eviction.

And so all of her spiny senses go up because eviction, we now know, is what Heidi and Nick were facing on the eve of, you know, when she passed.

So she thought, oh my gosh, if he's capable of lying about this, he's capable of this, he's capable of that.

And he could...

And that was key to police.

Absolutely.

And that was, you know, later on in the investigation when the FBI got involved, that's when they were really able to take a deep dive into the text messages and the phone calls between Nick and Heidi.

And it was like, she had no idea.

Yeah, she had no idea.

No idea.

Yes, she is fabulous as a detective and a person.

She's amazing.

And it is because of her that that justice was brought to Heidi.

Truly.

Yeah.

Nikki Sipes is amazing.
