By late Friday Broussard’s friend, Magen Rose Fieramusca, aka Maygen Humphrey, is being held in jail in Harris County on kidnapping and corpse tampering charges.
She is registered to the car where Heidi’s body was found on Thursday night outside a house in Jersey Village, a suburb of Houston.
Heidi’s baby, one-month-old Margot Carey, was found safe and alive inside the property.
Police say they expect to charge Megan with murder later in the day.
A second person, who has not yet been named, is also in custody.
It remains unclear how long Megan and Heidi knew each other, or how close they were.
Heidi Broussard and baby Margot were reported missing by her fiance Shane Carey, who is also Margot’s father, at 7.30pm on December 12.
Broussard returned home after dropping off her older child, six-year-old Silas at school then vanished, police said.
This particular situation was suspicious immediately. Police said they feared foul play from the start because one child was missing and one was left behind, the presumption being that if a mother were to run away voluntarily, she would either take both children or leave both behind, police said
‘We miss all of them very much, and we want them home. So, anybody who has her, please let them go – just let them go – and it’ll be alright, Tammy Broussard said.
She added: ‘Heidi wouldn’t do this, there’s no way. She loves her son Silas and she would never do this, and she would never take Margot down those stairs without her carrier and have her strapped in and her diaper bag strapped to her back.’
Authorities said Broussard arrived at the school with Margot to drop off her son at around 7.30am. A surveillance image released by police showed the mother at the school wearing a purple shirt about 20 minutes later.
Carey said Heidi called him at about 8am to telling him she had bought some books for Silas at a school fair. He said he tried calling her again at around 1.40pm but her phone was turned off.
Carey arrived home from work at about 2pm and said Broussard and the baby were not there.
He said Broussard’s car was unlocked and her purse was inside with her ID and bank cards still in it. Carey said her keys and cellphone were the only things missing.
Heidi has been missing since December 12 when she was last seen dropping her son Silas, at school. Her daughter three-week-old daughter Margot was also missing
Carey told Fox7 that when he first noticed Broussard was missing, he walked around the apartment complex ‘going through dumpsters’ to see if he could find her keys.
‘I sat outside to see any suspicions, anything that was weird,’ he said.
‘The next morning I sat out here for hours asking everybody if they’d seen or heard screaming, anything that was off or suspicious.
‘They’re all saying no.’
Carey begged anyone with information to contact him or authorities and pleaded with the public to share social media posts about her disappearance.
‘She would not do this by herself. She would not be doing this. This is definitely something that happened that was wrong,’ he said.
