One of Robinson’s family members who has nothing good to say about him is Heather Robinson. She was born Tiffany Stasi and was the daughter of 19-year-old Lisa Stasi, believed to be Robinson’s second murder victim when she was killed in 1985. Robinson preyed upon the young single mother, luring her to Kansas with the prospect of a stable life. Instead, it’s believed he killed her to take her young child and arrange an adoption with his younger brother. Donald Robinson and his wife, Helen, were struggling to find a child to adopt, and, with Robinson’s aid, they could unwittingly adopt Lisa’s daughter (per Case Law). Heather’s adoptive parents assumed that John acquired her through legal means.
In an interview with 20/20, Heather detailed how creepy she thought her adopted uncle was. As she grew older, she alleged that Robinson would ask her sexually inappropriate questions and even offered to fly her to him any time she felt she needed to get away. About how he made her feel, she stated that he “always gave me this really weird, off-putting feeling in the pit of my stomach.”

Heather noted that she is glad she never took up her uncle on any offers to visit him in the Midwest. According to her, it would have probably ended her life. She maintains that if she had gone off with him, she believes that she would have wound up another body in one of the barrels police recovered. Sadly enough, Lisa Stasi’s body has never been found.
