156. The Christmas Tree: HOMICIDE

This week on LOTW, Becky and Bevy walk through the night four adults met under circumstances that would later draw police attention.Heidi Carter was staying in a small home in Evansville, Indiana, where she often -maybe too often- allowed her boyfriend, Casey Hammond, stay the night. Their relationship was volatile, marked by drug use and frequent arguments. They also were not monoganous with one another, and Heidihad recently started looking for companionship online, connecting with Amanda Siebe. One night, Amanda and her boyfriend, Tim Ivy, drove to Heidi’s house after plans were made for the four of them to meet. Casey wasn’t initially comfortable with the Tim being there but changed his mind at the last minute. Inside that house, the mix of drugs, strained relationships, and shifting boundaries set the stage for what would unfold next.
