Steve Guttenberg (Police Academy, Cocoon) will play real-life serial killer John Edward Robinson in the Lifetime movie Kidnapped by a Killer: The Heather Robinson Story, Deadline reports.
Rachel Stubington (“Shrinking”) stars as Heather Robinson, who was abducted as a baby and raised by the family of a serial killer who was convicted of murdering her mother. Jana Kramer (“One Tree Hill”) plays an investigator working on the case.
Heather (Stubington) grew up in a loving family in Illinois. By the time she was a teen, she had long known that she had been adopted as an infant by her parents.
But in 2000, the then-15-year-old’s world was shattered when she learned that the man she knew as her uncle, John Robinson (Guttenberg), was a serial killer accused of murdering multiple women in the Kansas City area, including her biological mother, Lisa Stasi. After her uncle’s arrest, Heather learns the shocking truth about her birth mother’s disappearance.
Lee Gabiana (Gaslit by My Husband: The Morgan Metzer Story) directs from a script written by Shawn Linden (Hunter Hunter) and Pamela Gray for Marwar Junction Productions and Allegheny Image Factory.
Kidnapped by a Killer: The Heather Robinson Story will premiere on Saturday, June 7, at 8/7 c on Lifetime.
