About this listen

On Valentine’s Day 1996, a 19-year-old pregnant newlywed sat inside a Las Vegas convenience store, keeping her husband company during his overnight shift.

She never made it home.

In this episode of Vegas Crime Files, Heidi Harris speaks with the first officer on the scene and the lead homicide detective who worked the case—two men who never forgot what they saw that night.

You’ll hear:

  • What the first responding officer encountered walking into the store
  • The haunting moments inside UMC as doctors fought to save both mother and baby
  • How two suspects, disguised as women, carried out the robbery
  • Why the case took years to resolve
  • And how fear kept key witnesses from testifying

This is a story about violence, loss—and the lasting impact on everyone who was there.
