Murder Suspect Found Hanged in Motel


A man suspected of murdering his wife near Los Angeles has been found dead in a motel room in the Canadian province of British Columbia, police say.Ryan Jenkins, 32, had been the subject of a massive manhunt after the naked body of Jasmine Fiore, a 28-year-old former model, was found in a suitcase. He had reported his wife missing, and then disappeared himself. His boat was was found near the US-Canada border.

Police said it was unclear how long Jenkins' body had been in the motel. Sgt Duncan Pound of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police says investigators were alerted after police had responded to a call about a dead person at the Thunderbird Motel in Hope, east of Vancouver.
"Preliminary evidence suggests that he took his own life," said Sgt Pound.

A police source in California said that Jenkins had hanged himself and was identified by his fingerprints. Jenkins had been taking part in the show Megan Wants a Millionaire. Described as an investment banker, Mr Jenkins was one of several wealthy young men trying to win the affections of a young woman in the show.

Jasmine Fiore was found dead 10 days ago The TV channel VH1 cancelled the series after he was identified as a suspect. Ms Fiore had no connection with the show, but she and Mr Jenkins had married in Las Vegas in March. Her mangled body was found in a suitcase in a dumpster in Buena Park, south of Los Angeles, on 15 August. She was identified by a serial number on her breast implants.

After several days of searching, police found Jenkins' boat more than 950 miles (1,500km) north of Los Angeles - in the town of Point Roberts on the Canadian border.
"We continue to believe that Mr Jenkins was solely responsible" for the murder, said a spokeswoman for the Orange County District Attorney's Office in California, after his death was announced.
Well that case solved itself.I like it when a case comes together.

    I read about the model being cut up and stuffed in a suitcase.
    Was Ryan Jenkins scared or just stupid. he went to the wrong place to hide out, so he just killed himself, because he kknew the Mounties alway get their man/ woman, whichever the case may be,
    Well another one bites the dust, no tax payer's money will be spent, thank goodness, ain't that nice.
