BMW sues dead murder suspect




A Calgary man who killed himself while fleeing a U.S. murder charge for the slaying of his swimsuit model ex-wife is the subject of a recently filed Edmonton lawsuit.

According to a statement of claim filed in Edmonton's Court of Queen's Bench on Aug. 20, BMW Canada Inc. is alleging Ryan Jenkins owes them $12,750 in outstanding payments for a luxury car he was leasing.

The German automaker alleges Jenkins, 32, entered into a written lease agreement on June 6, 2007, whereby he leased a 2007 BMW 335xi sedan

BMW says Jenkins agreed to make monthly payments of $932 up until June 2010, however the company claims he breached the agreement by failing to make the payments.

Jenkins allegedly made his last payment in March 2009 .

BMW says the luxury sedan was returned to them and subsequently sold, but note there is a deficiency owing on the vehicle in the amount of $12,750 plus interest.

U.S. authorities laid first-degree murder charges against the Calgary realtor turned Hollywood reality TV contestant on Aug. 20, five days after the naked, strangled body of his swimsuit model ex-wife Jasmine Fiore, 28, was found in a dumpster, stuffed inside a suitcase.
