Canadian police Tuesday said they have identified the mystery woman who checked Ryan Jenkins, the alleged killer of model Jasmine Fiore, into the Thunderbird Motel in Hope, British Columbia.
"We know who this individual is," RCMP Sgt. Duncan Pound said. "And we don't need any assistance in locating her."
No charges were pending against the woman Tuesday morning, officials said.
Jenkins was found dead via hanging Sunday evening at the inn -- which was less than two hours away from his mother's Vancouver home -- less than four days after the Megan Wants a Millionaire contestant was charged in the killing of Fiore. The 32-year-old Jenkins was wanted on first-degree murder charges after Fiore's body was found mutilated and stuffed into a suitcase in a Buena Park, California dumpster on August 15.
