Calgary Realtor sought after body of California model found in breifcase
Police in California are looking for a former Calgary realtor after the body of a model he reportedly married was found in a briefcase left in a trash bin .
The naked body of Jasmine Fiore, 28, was discovered on Saturday morning behind an apartment complex in Buena Park, a city southeast of Los Angeles. She appeared to have been strangled, police said.
Lieut. Gary Worrall of the Buena Park Police Department said Ryan Jenkins, 31, is being sought as a "person of interest" in the case.
Jenkins reported Fiore missing to police on Saturday evening, Worrall told CBC News.
"He did report his significant other as missing and when we attempted to re-contact him to conduct further investigation, we've not been able to contact him. We find that suspicious," Worrall said. "At this point, he's merely a person of interest that we'd like to speak to."
Worrall said the couple were last seen together in San Diego the night before Fiore's body was found.
Police are looking for a Mercedes CLS550 that Jenkins may be driving.
Jenkins was a contestant on a reality TV show airing on VH1 called Megan Wants a Millionaire. Seventeen wealthy men, each with a net worth of more than $1 million, compete for the affection of model Megan Hauserman on the show.
On Tuesday, celebrity gossip site TMZ quoted Hauserman as saying Jenkins and Fiore got married two days after they met at a strip club in Las Vegas.
Jenkins listed Calgary as his hometown and investment banker as his occupation on the show's website.
"Says he has left many amazing women in his life primarily because he wanted more women," reads Jenkins' online biography.
A website for a Calgary company called Skyhomes listed Jenkins as the CEO and real estate associate.
