Mother Of Missing Spokane Woman: 'It's Just Been Pain For Days'
13 Oct 2010

[snip]

"Heather would never abandon her apartment with all of her belongings, especially her two cats," said Heather's mom Jackie Forney. Forney says Heather has not contacted any of her close friends or family and that her daughter suffers from Bi-Polar and may be off of her medication. "I've never had anything like this ever happen to me before and it's really devastating, it's just been pain for days, she's missing," said Forney. When we asked Forney if she had anything else to say about her missing daughter she replied, "I just want people to pray for my daughter's safe return home."

Heather was featured in a great article in The Inlander, based in Spokane. Lots of details about Heather.


Without a Trace

Jackie Forney fell asleep with a cordless phone in her hand every night for two months. And the few times it pierced the midnight quiet of her remote country home, her heart would kick-start into a flutter, and she’d jerk the handset up to her ear before the end of the first ring. In the split second before she hit the plastic TALK button, she would feel reality slow to a stop, like time itself was holding its breath.

For months she collapsed onto the green-and-lavender quilt covering her double bed, still dressed in her jeans and sweatshirt, makeup smudged under her eyes, her graying hair in a messy ponytail. But the phone was always in her hand. She prayed for the one call that could end this nightmare for good.

For three years, she’s been waiting for her daughter, Heather Higgins, to call her and tell her exactly how she could just vanish from the face of the Earth without a trace.

The family of another missing Spokane woman also uses Facebook to help generate clues and even interest in their case. Heather Higgins has been missing more than five years now. Heather’s mother Jackie Forney said her then 39-year-old daughter was seen leaving her South Spokane apartment with an acquaintance to run errands. According to Jackie, this acquaintance reportedly said he dropped her back off at home, but she hasn’t heard from her daughter since. She left her beloved cats and personal belongings behind. No one was seen Heather since September 20, 2010.

“It’s been the worst hell,” said Forney. “I don’t even know how to explain it.”

"Police records obtained by KHQ's Hayley Guenthner show the man's name came up repeatedly as detectives investigated Heather's case. Police records show a passerby found a large knife and an ID of Heather's just a few blocks from where the man was living. Records also show a witness told detectives the man told her he 'did something really bad.' The witness said the man also said he didn't kill Heather, but 'disposed of (her) body by putting her in a sleeping bag.' He allegedly dumped her body near a ski resort "up north," according to the witness."

The man believed responsible for Heather's disappearance and murder has been denied parole until at least 2024:

Robert G. Davis, 48, must remain in prison for his conviction stemming from a 2014 attack against a Coeur d’Alene woman who was twice choked into unconsciousness. He appeared last week before the Idaho Commission of Pardons and Parole. According to people who attended the hearing, Davis sought early release from his 15-year sentence for burglary and assault with sexual motivation. He told commissioners that he already had secured housing.


However, the board, which received letters objecting to Davis’ release from the family of 20-year-old Kala Williams, rejected Davis’ request for early release and delayed his next parole hearing until 2024.


“I’m ecstatic,” said Jackie Forney, of Clayton, Washington. She is the mother of Heather Higgins, who was 39 when she disappeared on Sept. 20, 2010, after accepting a ride from Davis. “This is not somebody you want in your neighborhood.”

At least this creep will be kept until 2024 but he deserves life! No one is safe with him around.
