Hann and Bich Ha Pan had high expectations for their daughter Jennifer. She lived a sheltered life filled with piano lessons, figure-skating competitions, and several hours of studying each day. This type of parenting is commonly called "tiger parenting." But as Jennifer approached adulthood, she began a life of deceit. Forging report cards and college acceptance letters, Jennifer went to great lengths to avoid disappointing her parents and maintain a forbidden relationship.
After a home invasion that took the life of her mother, Jennifer's lies and deception would be revealed, shocking the community as well as those who thought they knew her.
In this episode, we speak with Jeremy Grimaldi, author of the new book "A Daughter's Deadly Deception" and a journalist who sat through Jennifer's sensational trial. The facts in this case are shocking and Jeremy's insight was fascinating.  Thank you for joining us at the quiet end!

Dick took a trip down memory lane for his beer review in this episode---waxing nostalgic on Molson Canadian.

On October 5th, 2012, Sarah Ridgeway called 911 to report her 10 year-old daughter, Jessica, missing. Jessica had left her home at 8:25am that morning to walk to school.  At 10:11am, the school left a message on Sarah Ridgeway's cell phone to tell her that Jessica never arrived.  But Sarah, who worked the overnight shift, didn't hear the voicemail until 4pm.  The town of Westminster, Colorado, looked for Jessica for 18 days until the mother of a local teen called police to turn in her 17 year-old son for the murder of Jessica. What we would find out about the kidnapping and murder of Jessica would shock and disturb everyone who heard about it. Join us at the quiet end as we explore the mind of a monster whose depraved actions could never have been predicted...or could they?

The beer Dick reviews in this episode is "Tweak" from Avery Brewing Company in Boulder, Colorado.

In the 1980s and 1990s, at least 70 women were killed in the Seattle and Tacoma Washington area by the Green River Killer. The victims were mainly prostitutes and runaways who were picked up along the Pacific Highway South. The women were strangled and most of their bodies dumped into wooded areas around the Green River. The bodies were often in clusters, sometimes posed, and nude. The involvement of the victims in prostitution complicate the case. Runaways and prostitutes were often not in close contact with their families, making it less likely for them to be reported missing. In this episode of True Crime Brewery, we will try to bring to light the victims of the Green River Killer as we learn about the horrible, gruesome crimes of the most prolific serial killer in history.
