The murder case of Heidi Furcus in April 2010 shook Saint Paul, Minnesota, when she was found shot to death in her home along the Mississippi River. Her husband, Nicholas Furcus, claimed the couple was attacked by a hooded intruder in a home invasion, supported by Heidi’s dramatic 911 call that suddenly disconnected. However, there were no signs of struggle, theft, or forced entry, while Nick sustained only a minor gunshot wound to his leg. As the investigation progressed, Nick’s lies unraveled: the couple was drowning in massive debt, their home was in foreclosure, and all of this had been deliberately concealed from family and friends. In this episode, you'll learn how the FBI-assisted reconstruction of the 911 call revealed inconsistencies in the timeline, how forensic evidence such as ballistics and DNA—found only from Heidi and Nick—led to murder charges filed 11 years after the incident, and how financial secrets can escalate into a deadly tragedy. This episode also highlights the psychological impact on the victim’s family and the dangers of manipulated narratives in domestic violence cases.
