You will see the tip of that knife. Eventually, and only because of the relentlessness of Jasmine Pace's family, the Chattanooga Police Department's Homicide Division, executed a search warrant at Jason Chen's apartment on November 28, 2020.
The missing persons investigation quickly became a homicide investigation when, even despite his best efforts to clean it up, Jasmine Pace's blood, upon the execution of a search warrant, was located all over Jason Chin's apartment.
And when you think that you have seen enough evidence that Jason Chin killed Jasmine Pace, you will be convinced that he stuffed her body in this suitcase after placing it in trash bags because you will hear from a fingerprint expert. The fingerprint expert will tell you that Jason Chen's fingerprints were found on the innermost trash bag that surrounded her vault.
And you're going to see through those text messages that Jason can reciprocate that as much.
And there on the counter is Jason's cell phone.
That familiar Tinder thing that Jasmine and Jason knew so well because that's how they met.
And he doesn't know what to do.
Yes, it was.
At some point after her grandmother passed away, were you not able to get in touch with Jasmine? Correct. The next day. Katrina was desperate to find her daughter. Days had gone by without any communication.
We went to 900 Mount Creek Road.
And we went back to the apartments to view this tree footage. And while doing so, I looked back at my and Jasmine's messages. Okay. And seeing that, she had sent me a pin and dropped her location. And that's why we went to the 1-10-3 line. What caused you to look back at your and Jasmine's? And when you say conversations, you mean your text thread? Yes, our text thread.
What caused you to go back and look at that? I don't remember. We were trying to get the... footage working at the apartments. And I didn't notice it before because I had sent her a pin drop on the 22nd because we normally had been taking my grandmother to the hospital downtown and we didn't that day. And so I had sent her a pin drop showing her what hospital we were at.
So I didn't notice that she had sent a pin drop. Because I thought the pin drop was sent to her.
What was your reaction when you saw this location drop? At the time that you saw the location drop, did you know of anybody that's lived or frequented this building? No. So you traveled to this location. Do you recall what the address was? It's 110 Trueblood Street. And it's an apartment building, is that correct? Yes. Okay, everybody's together.
And so how did you get into the apartment building? Actually, a gentleman that lived there let us in. And did something cause you to arrive at apartment 210?
What was that? Spoke to a neighbor that said that he heard a woman scream. within several minutes of the pin drop that I had received from my daughter. And Jason's apartment door was the only one that someone didn't answer. So the person told you that this frame had come from a certain apartment. Was that apartment 210? It was. And did you and your family not call that door? We did not answer it.
Okay. Explain to the jury what you and your family members proceeded to do. Was anybody there? No. What did you start doing when you got to the apartment? Opened up debt stores, found my daughter's ID and credit cards that I had seen on the counter. A little travel bag of hers. I did. I did.
When you arrived at the home, who answered the door?
Was Jason Chandler a residence?
This is a high-profile murder case originating from Chattanooga, which has garnered significant media attention. To ensure a fair and impartial trial, 16 jurors will be selected, 12 to serve on the jury panel, and four as alternates.
