The unsettling case of Heather Louise Schwab, a Texas woman whose remains were found in her boyfriend’s refrigerator, has taken a dark turn with shocking revelations.
Chad Christopher Stevens, the boyfriend, faces mounting charges as details emerge about threats, a potential cover-up, and a timeline that challenges initial statements.
New Leads and Witnesses
Leads in the case emerged on Nov. 3 when Tammra Schwab, Heather’s mother, received information from Stevens’ ex-wife alleging he had killed Heather and buried her in the backyard.
This prompted a detective to interview the ex-wife and daughter in Oklahoma on Nov. 4, revealing disturbing details about Stevens’ threatening behavior.
