I was asked to cover the case of Heather Leann Haller-Cameron by a fan by the name of Risa. I'm sorry it took so long Risa. This is actually the second case I have covered from the Redding area. The first one being Tera Lynn Smith's "disappearance". You can read Tera's entry here. I also wanna say, There is a certain irony that Risa requested me to cover Heather's case at the time she did. As of the day I am writing this entry, I exchanged messages with her and explained the irony of it all for the first time. She said something that got me thinking.
"If anything that just shows me her spirit is here and strong."
Once she told me that. I knew I had to immediately cancel any plans I had today. And I had to at least start this entry. Thankfully it's my day off. I dedicated Against All Odds by Phil Collins to this entry. I've been on a Phil Collins kick lately. And it came out in 1984. The same year Heather was born. That song is also another example of the irony of the entire situation I was referring to earlier. But enough about that. Here we go.....
Against All Odds-Phil Collins (1984)

“She just had a really good heart. Tera had a really good heart. I think the world is a better place for her having been in it. And I can only imagine how much better it would be if she was still here.” — Marilyn and Terry Smith

Where is Tera? Zink Knows
I've had a much needed layoff from this field. I'm back as this entry will show you. (In full form) I chose this case mainly for 2 reasons. One being it's mainly a missing persons case. Even though it really isn't as you'll soon read. But the other reason is the only logical suspect in the case, Charles Troy Zink is a total waste of skin. And is an utter piece of shit. And if he reads this and is upset that I called him that. He is more than welcome to contact me. But we all know that isn't gonna happen. Unlike Tera Lynn Smith. I'm not half his size nor someone he can bully. This guy has gotten away with murder and is out there living his life care free. Until now. I dedicated Aerosmith's I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing to this entry. It's perfect as Tera's family didn't wanna miss a thing. And because of a low life convicted felon/rapist. They did. I'm gonna try really hard to keep this entry about Tera and her family because that's where the focus should be. And not make it about how badly I wanna knock this sunuva bitch out. This isn't about me at all. This guy just irks me. More than most guys I've profiled. And that's saying something. I have not had any contact with the family on this entry. They seem to be a very upstanding close religious family that have dedicated numerous years not only to searching for their daughter. But to their community as well. And I wasn't sure that my style of writing would please them as I am anything but classy when it comes to low life rapists like Charles Troy Zink. So in the immortal words of the great Judge Mills Lane (RIP). "Lets get it on! Below is a video I created with Aerosmith's song.
