Marie H. Heu, 34, was found dead in her Eagan, Minnesota home on August 22, 2000. Family members discovered her body in the bedroom after her nephew Tcheng Heu alerted them to a problem at the residence. Marie’s car was missing from its usual spot but was later located in Kansas City, Missouri.

Her estranged husband, Fu Joseph Heu, 36, became the primary suspect. Prosecutors charged him with multiple counts that included first-degree premeditated murder, first-degree domestic abuse murder, and second-degree intentional murder, citing a pattern of domestic violence. Two prior incidents involving the couple were reported: April 18, 1998, at Duckwood Apartments in Eagan, and June 18, 2000, at their family home on Alder Lane. After the June incident Marie obtained an order for protection that excluded Fu from the house and barred contact.

On the night of August 21, 2000, Fu met nephew Tcheng at a Wal-Mart in Eagan, bought a bicycle for a daughter, and had Tcheng drive him to the Alder Lane residence. Tcheng knocked on Marie’s door; her body was found the next morning. Does anyone have additional information about Marie’s life in Eagan or the events leading up to that night?
