Heather Nicole Robinson was 30 and worked as a registered nurse in Brandon, Mississippi. In February 2017 she failed to show up for work and was found dead inside her apartment; investigators concluded she had been strangled. Evidence indicates she had been trying to end an abusive relationship with her boyfriend, 28-year-old Alex Deaton, who is identified as the primary suspect.

After the killing, Deaton reportedly stole Robinson’s SUV and used her phone to send texts to family members in an apparent attempt to mislead them. He then embarked on a multi-state crime spree that included shooting a nearby jogger, traveling to Neshoba County where 69-year-old Brenda Pinter was shot and killed inside a church, and later incidents in New Mexico and Kansas that involved carjacking, shootings and the theft of additional vehicles before his capture.

If anyone knew Heather, her routines, or saw her SUV in February 2017, please share information that could help complete the timeline.
