The Netflix series 'Stolen Baby: The Murder of Heidi Broussard' sheds light on the life of Magen Fieramusca, who murdered her friend Heidi Broussard and stole her newborn daughter. Magen's ex-boyfriend, Christopher Green, is also in focus after the show's release.
According to authorities, Christopher told them that Magen had said she was pregnant with his child around the time they ended their relationship in March 2019. However, Magen continued to live in Christopher's home in Houston during her fake pregnancy.
After Magen killed Heidi, she allegedly presented Margot, Heidi's baby, to Christopher as her own. When questioned by police, Christopher told them that Magen had just brought the child home and claimed it was hers.
Heidi Broussard, a 33-year-old woman, was last seen alive on December 12, 2019, when she dropped her eldest child at school in Austin, Texas, with her newborn daughter Margot in tow. Magen, who had claimed she was pregnant too, drove from Houston to Austin and strangled Heidi to death using a combination of a dog leash and her bare hands.
Magen was arrested shortly after Heidi's body was discovered and originally charged with capital murder, two counts of kidnapping and one count of tampering with a corpse. She accepted a plea deal in January 2023, reducing the murder charge to first-degree but waiving her right to appeal. Magen was sentenced to 55 years in prison with the possibility of parole and is now serving her sentence at the William P. Hobby Unit in Marlin, Texas.
