I'm left wondering if Jasmine made the tragic mistake of thinking she could play Jenkins for his money: they had a quickie marriage, he showered her with gifts, he just won a lot of cash (and was purportedly already a millionaire) but she never stopped exchanging calls and emails with her ex-boyfriend (and apparently was very dismissive of Jenkins). Maybe she was hoping for a quick payday. That being said I feel terrible for her.

"... Mr. Jenkins arrived in a Chrysler PT Cruiser..."
This is one aspect of the story that just doesn't surprise me at all.
(From this AM's Globe & Mail. Sounds like he talked an ex-girlfriend into coming to pick him up in BC)

Maniacs like this give my country a bad name! What did he think we were going to do, welcome him home with open arms? Go away, if you act like an American (Sorry guys, but it's well known that per capita, more crime is committed in the US than up here), then you get punished like an American, none of this 'running home to cower in the land of lax laws and no death penalty' crap.

@DeadliestSin: I'm so not a patriot, but that "act like an American" line is uncalled for, really, as is the "punished like an American."

First, not all U.S. states carry out executions. And also, yes there is more violence here, but calling that "acting like an American" is taking it too far. I understand the point that you're trying to make and you could make it without the sweeping generalizations.

Besides, this guy is a whole other breed altogether, regardless of his nationality. He murdered his wife and then removed her teeth and fingers. Cold. blooded.

And if Canada will be the butt of the friendly, small, quaint jokes... it's only fair, and proportional that the US be the butt of gun-toting, incarceratin', 'lectrocuting yee-haw jokes.

I'm Australian, and will take your shrimps hurled at my barbie, anyday. It all starts with truth. At least a scrap of it, anyway.

After all, we've invested heavily to earn this distinction. I'd hope that you celebrate us for this hard-won accomplishment.

At least he had the decency to kill himself. I wish certain past politicians had the guts to do this.
