BUENA PARK, Calif.
(Aug. 28) -- A body that was found
stuffed in a suitcase and thrown in
an Orange County trash bin has been identified as that of a 28-year-old
former swimsuit model who disappeared over the weekend.
Police said Tuesday that Jasmine Fiore had been strangled.
Lt. Gary Worrall
says police want to speak with Ryan Alexander Jenkins, of Alberta,
Canada, who reported her missing Saturday night after he reportedly
took her to a poker party in San Diego.
The Los Angeles Times reported that Jenkins was a contestant on the current VH1 reality show
'Megan Wants a Millionaire,' in which a woman tries to land a wealthy
husband.
Fiore's mother, Lisa
Lapore, told the Times that Jenkins and her daughter had been dating.
Police said they were investigating suggestions that the two had
married in Las Vegas.
