I'm sorry for what Jasmine's family is going through right now. There is lots being reported in the Vegas paper about this since she worked as a dealer for Playboy & was living here till very recently.
Jasmine 'knew' ALOT of different men & continued this after she married this character. (I know of one through a friend who has somehow managed to keep his name out of the paper.) These 2 were like oil & water & she knew how to push his button. He was abusive to her. Even her friends recognized this & could not believe how they would treat each other. They also said she fell into the 'Vegas mindset" which can be anyone's down fall. The partying, drinking, men, financial issues, etc. They also said she was lonely. Lonely is a bad place to be when looking for companionship. You will settle for much less than you deserve.
God bless her, she did not deserve this. I hope that she finally found the peace she was looking for.

OK so now the Palms hotel is reporting that she had worked for them as a cabana girl/waitress at the pool & not in the Playboy club. No word from Playboy yet confirming or denying.

I read she did work for Playboy but wasn't a magazine model or featured nude. She worked for them by doing appearances for parties, golf tournaments and events like that.

CTV News obtained new information Tuesday night about the so-called mystery woman in the Ryan Jenkins investigation.

Multiple sources tell CTV that RCMP is talking to Ryan Jenkins' younger half-sister.

She has been identified as Alena Jenkins. She is a model and runs a photography business. According to her website, she grew up in Vancouver and still lives there.

We've learned investigators are talking to Alena Jenkins to determine whether she knows anything about how her older brother ended up in Hope, British Columbia last Thursday.

Ryan Jenkins had been on the run for just over a week.

He was the sole suspect in the brutal murder of his ex-wife Jasmine Fiore in California.

CTV News also discovered on Tuesday a silver PT Cruiser with an Alberta licence plate parked at the Coal Harbour condominium in Vancouver where an "A.Jenkins" is listed as living.

CTV News had been informed police were at the building on Tuesday.

A car with a description matching that one was spotted outside the Thunderbird Motel in Hope.

The motel manager says a young pretty blond woman was behind the wheel and a man was sitting inside.

She paid cash for a three day stay for him, left and didn't return.

32 year-old Ryan Jenkins, a former realtor in Calgary was found hanging in one of the rooms three days later.

RCMP have not revealed the identity of the woman who was seen driving the PT Cruiser in Hope. They do say they know who she is and where she is.

CTV News tried making contact with Alena Jenkins, but so far she has not returned any calls.

This is one of the saddest things I've ever heard about. He mutilated the poor girl. No one deserves what she went through, it makes me so sad. I hope she can rest in peace and her family gets some sort of closure because Ryan Jenkins was found.

I heard this morning that the car was found in a West Hollywood grocery store parking lot. An anonymous caller gave police the info. I guess more will come out in the next few days.

Father: Jenkins did not kill model Fiore

Published: Aug. 29, 2009 at 3:21 PM

CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 29 (UPI) -- The father of reality show actor Ryan Alexander Jenkins says his son did not kill his ex-wife, swimsuit model Jasmine Fiore.

Canadian architect Dan Jenkins said in a statement his son, who appeared on the reality TV series "Megan Wants a Millionaire," did not kill Fiore, whose mutilated body was found inside a suitcase near Los Angeles on Aug. 15, the Canwest News Service said Saturday.

"I understand that the police department is making progress in the case and once I am in better shape I intend to offer a reward for the capture of her killer," Dan Jenkins said.

Susan Kang Schroeder, a spokeswoman for the Orange County district attorney's office, said authorities still suspect the younger Jenkins was responsible for the killing.

"We feel comfortable that all evidence points to Jenkins," Schroeder said of the homicide suspect, who was found dead in a British Columbia motel last Sunday.

Ryan Jenkins, 32, was being sought by authorities in both the United States and Canada when he apparently committed suicide, Canwest reported.

Thanks for the inside info, Vegas Long Legs. We're following it on Websleuths, and there are some posters who surmise this was drug related. I personally lean towards Ryan doing it in either a drug or alcohol fueled rage.

There is enough information out that they do know what happened.

I saw this on TMZ the other day. The coat rack that Ryan Jenkins hung himself from was used at a Halloween party. Photos are in the story.
