The Midnight Suitcase: Sixty Stab Wounds and a Stolen Phone

A suitcase drags the body of Jasmine Peace, 22 years old, stabbed 60 times. But while her family was searching for her, he was posting fake photos on social media, buying band-aids, and contacting other women. How did the phone that would betray him become the evidence that buried him forever?In this episode, you will discover how a 71-minute call, a location pin at 2:18 a.m., and 100 urban cameras wove a web of digital evidence that the killer could not escape. You will learn about the family's parallel investigation that found Jasmine before the police did, and how a jury took less than an hour to seal his fate with life in prison.Case DetailsVictim: Jasmine Peace, 22 years old, studentDate: November 22-23, 2022Location: Chattanooga, Tennessee, United StatesStatus: Jason Chen sentenced to life in prison without parole, January 2025- The 71-minute call that Jason denied, but family plan records proved it was a lie- The location pin sent at 2:18 a.m. matched exactly with the screams heard by the neighbor 7 minutes later- He posted a photo of Jasmine without her distinctive tattoos on her shoulder and arm, using an earlier image to simulate that she was alive- Jason's phone contained recovered deleted messages, a photo of Jasmine in the bathroom the night of the crime, and a message asking if she wanted to have dinner after she was already deadHow can someone try to erase evidence while their own phone tracks them at every step?true crime Tennessee, murder Jasmine Peace, Jason Chen Chattanooga, suitcase body, 60 stab wounds, digital crime evidence, case solved 2025, premeditated murder, family investigation, true crime Spanish podcastIf you want to listen to this podcast ad-free and have access to premium episodes, we invite you to try our subscription with a 14-day free trial at obomedia.com.© 2026 OBOMEDIA.
