Nefertiri “Neffie” Trader (Queen of Hearts, Delaware)

Show Notes

In the early hours of June 30th, 2014, 33-year-old Nefertiri, who went by “Neffie”, was kidnapped from her own front yard. In the dark, she was dragged into her car, away from the townhome she shared with her mom and three children.

Even though Neffie’s kidnapping was witnessed, it would be almost nineteen hours before police learned that Neffie was missing. After an investigation failed to find out what happened to Neffie, a Delaware court declared her legally dead. But her body has still never been found.

Could the identity of Neffie’s kidnapper lie with friends she saw hours before she vanished?

Or is the suspect a convicted killer out for revenge?
