Sister of man held captive by stepmom for 21 years speaks out | Banfield
Heather Tessman, half-sister of the 69-pound man known as "Male Victim One," joined NewsNation to discuss his case. She last saw him as an infant and searched for him — until a month ago, when she saw news reports of his escape from a Connecticut house fire. The 32-year-old victim says he was held captive for 21 years, enduring torment since age 11. Tessman, placed in foster care and later adopted, lived a normal life just 15 minutes away. Stepmother Kimberly Sullivan faces kidnapping and assault charges but is free on $300,000 bail.
