Patricia Allen (Queen of Hearts, Washington)

Our card this week is Patricia Allen, the Queen of Hearts from Washington.

On October 3, 1995, Patricia Allen was asleep on her couch when she was stabbed once so precisely that it nearly cut her heart in half. So begins one of the most mysterious homicide cases out of Yakima, Washington. With no shortage of suspects – including a woman who some believe wanted to become Patty – this case is truly stranger than fiction.
