Heather Suzanne Francis Muller was 25 when she was killed during what came to be called the Wichita Massacre. On the night of December 14, 2000, she and four friends were at a home on Birchwood Drive when two brothers, Reginald and Jonathan Carr, forced their way in. Over several hours the captors robbed the group, forced the women to perform sexual acts, repeatedly assaulted them, and made the victims withdraw money from ATMs.

In the early hours of December 15 the five were driven to a remote, snow-covered soccer field in northeast Wichita, forced to kneel, and shot execution-style. Heather died at the scene along with Aaron Sander, Brad Heyka, and Jason Befort; a fifth victim survived despite a gunshot to the head and escaped to summon help. Jonathan and Reginald Carr were arrested the next day and were later convicted of capital murder, rape, and robbery in connection with these crimes.

Does anyone have memories or information about Heather’s life, or recollections of the Birchwood Drive neighborhood that could add context to what happened that night?
