Jasmine and Jeremy and Jayme and Jake.\xa0 Two young girls and their boyfriends with cute and alliterative names.\xa0 Fun!\xa0 Right?\xa0 Um.\xa0 \xa0No.\xa0 In 2006, 12 year-old Jasmine Richardson disappeared from her home in Medicine Hat, Alberta after her parents and young brother were found brutally slain in their home.\xa0 At first, authorities believed that Jasmine was kidnapped by the killer and was being held hostage.\xa0 The truth was far more horrifying: Jasmine and her 23 year-old boyfriend Jeremy Steinke had actually committed the murders of Jasmine's family themselves - in a twisted plan to rid Jasmine of her ties to home so that she could run away with Jeremy.\xa0 It was a crime so unimaginably horrible that it set a precedent for callousness and pure evil.\xa0 So in 2018, when 13 year-old Jayme Closs of Barron Wisconsin went missing after HER parents were both brutally murdered in THEIR home, no one could blame some in law enforcement (and in the true crime blogosphere) from suspecting a replay of the Richardson case, and began looking for clues that a boyfriend was lurking somewhere in Jayme's social media background - a boyfriend that - who knows? - Jayme may have run away with after....you know...\xa0 As it turned out, though, the two cases are completely UNlike each other - this time around, the plot was solely that of one of the most coldblooded, determined yet bizarre murderers anyone could ever imagine.\xa0 Join Melissa as she delves into both cases, examines their similarities - and their truly frightening differences.
