On this week's episode of Empty Nesters and True Crime, Nancy shares a gripping and heart-wrenching tale with Susan—the story of Heather Robinson and her Uncle John, a man who hid dark secrets beneath the surface of a seemingly normal family life. As Nancy dives into the details, Susan listens intently, knowing the importance of giving a voice to victims whose stories often go untold.
Heather Robinson grew up believing her life was as ordinary as any other. Her Uncle John was a constant figure in her childhood, a trusted family member who seemed to always be around, lending a helping hand. But behind his friendly demeanor was a sinister truth. Heather had no idea the man she called Uncle John would later become a central figure in a shocking crime that shattered her world.
Nancy takes listeners on a journey through the layers of deception, manipulation, and ultimate betrayal. Uncle John, a man trusted by everyone around him, had a dark past that was carefully hidden for years. When the truth finally came to light, the revelations were almost too horrifying to comprehend. Not only was Heather's life irreparably changed, but the entire community was left in disbelief as the story of her uncle's crimes unfolded.
The episode explores how deeply betrayal from within a family can cut, especially when the perpetrator is someone who is supposed to protect, not harm. Nancy passionately narrates the emotional toll Heather’s story took on her, highlighting the resilience of survivors like Heather who, even after such trauma, find the strength to rebuild their lives.
Susan, as always, offers insightful commentary on the case, pointing out how crimes like these often leave lasting scars on the survivors and those around them.

In this week's episode, we delve into the tragic story of Michael Deng, a college student whose life was cut short due to a brutal hazing ritual. As campuses across the nation welcome back students this fall, it is crucial to bring awareness to the inherent dangers of hazing. These initiation practices, often dismissed as harmless fun, can escalate into life-threatening situations, leaving families and communities devastated. Michael's story serves as a poignant reminder of the dire consequences that can result from these so-called traditions.

Our discussion will also highlight the importance of strict enforcement and the role of education in preventing such tragedies.
