"She's been working for Goldman Sachs, the same global bank that Ted Cruz left off of his financial disclosure," Pierson said. She also worked at J.P. Morgan and Merrill Lynch.
As RadarOnline.com reported, Heidi sparked a suicide scare in 2005, when police officers found her sitting in the grass beside a Texas freeway with her head in her hands. A cop wrote in his report that he feared she was "a danger to herself."
A Cruz advisor later admitted she had suffered "a brief bout of depression" upon returning to Texas from her job in D.C.
