In 1987, Jay Cook and Tanya Van Cuylenborg were young and in love. The high school sweethearts decided to leave their hometown of Victoria, British Columbia, to go on a quick road trip to Seattle—and that's where everything went wrong. Both of their bodies were found miles away from each other in different cities in Washington. With no apparent motive, zero suspects, and very little evidence, the case went cold for THIRTY years. Until... in 2018, forensic genealogy revealed the first person of interest in the case, and police moved in fast on this man to prove he was the murderer. There are so many twists and turns in this tragic case, and Chelle and Lisa discuss it all on Whose Crime is it Anyway?
