Thank God, this monster is dead and in the process has saved the Canadian taxpayer many millions of dollars in defending him from the extradition process.
We'll be hearing about this for at least the next 3-4 days in the news. This story isn't over until they find this car that helped him get to the hotel as well.

It will be interesting to see who this was and I am sure that they will find out but regardless, even if charged, this person will not do jail time in Canada.
What makes me sick is how remorseless the family is and how this woman (whoever she is) was still willing to help this guy evade the law despite the gruesome aspects of this case. It doesn't seem to matter what these guys do, there are always people (and often times women) who still want to protect them from justice.
There's an old expression (I don't know the author) that says "Rare indeed is the man who does not leave at least one woman to mourn him."

Someone at work mentioned that maybe it was just someone picking up a hitchhiker, not knowing or being able to see who this guy was. But I can't see that. Reason being, the paper today said that the woman went into the hotel while the man waited in the car. I don't know to many people who would go in for a guy they just picked up and drove to wherever AND ask for the hotel room for them.
Maybe I'm overthinking this but the scenario this guy at work gave and what I read in the paper, it doesn't sound to me like this person was a stranger.

Plus, the car had Alberta plates...and the perp was from Alberta.
Moontoscott- You were close- That quote you were talking about comes from "The Hound Of The Baskervilles".
'Evil indeed is the man who has not one woman to mourn him.....' -Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Thanks, I'm sure you are right about the source because I am a big fan of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and the "Hound of the Baskervilles" is an all time favorite of mine so that must be where I read it.
There are interesting parallels between Jenkins and the villan from the book. In both cases, the sociopath was intelligent and had a beautiful woman by his side. Life does imitate art.
As Holmes said to Watson in the book-- "This is very nasty business."

Considering how this played out, should the person helping him get jail time or a medal?

I'm sure that the person who helped him didn't intend that he would kill himself.
The problem is that once it happens, every family of any "means" says let's try and help the accused evade law enforcement because there are no consequences anyway.
A case in point was the American serial rapist Alex Kelly. His rich family supported him as a ski-bum for years in Europe while he was on the run after he skipped bail. There was overwhelming evidence and many messages indicating that the family knew where he was but even after he was finally caught the family was never prosecuted.
If, in the case of Jenkins, it is a family member who helped (and I suspect it is) then I doubt that charges will ever be pressed. It probably is not worth pursuing.
