Jade Janks, the California woman convicted of killing her stepdad in 2020, was sentenced to 25 years to life in prison on Monday. Janks killed her stepfather, Tom Merriman, with premeditation after finding hundreds of nude photos of herself on his computer. Prosecutors said she drugged Merriman and strangled him in an act of revenge before attempting to hide his body.

poor baby set her free wtf bro
Most people don’t go straight to murder 🧐…..
She already knows what the rest of her life looks like.
Thats ridiculous let her out scumbag america justice system
How is she eligible for parole in 2038 if the murder took place in 2020 or 2021 and she got sentenced to 25 to Life, so therefore she has to serve 25 years off top before she's even eligible for parole, the years aren't adding up!
Shes beautiful
Crazy, all she had to do was call police and get him sent to prison as a perv! Now he's ruined her life kinda twice! Premeditated or not, she was clearly experiencing emotional traumatic PTSD of some kind! 😢
❤AND AGAIN . WOMEN MUST ENDURE . IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT THEY DO TO US . WHAT IS JUDGED IS HOW A WOMAN RESPONDS TO BEING ABUSED.A ND TRAUMATIZED…WHICH IS JUST EXPLOITATION. THIS IS DISGUSTING HE GOT WHAT HE DESERVED AND SHE DOES NOT DESERVE PRISON FOR SELF DEFENSIVE MEASURES
She planned it. She could have turned him in to the authorities
47:10 Not to laugh at his Brothers statements but “I lost 90 minutes of sleep in the last two years” and he continues to suffer!! Who keeps that close of loss sleep time, especially in two years 😛
And her 👏 Emmy goes to….. what an absolute actress she is!! One min she’s pouting 🥺 (poor me) and the next a smug look!! 🤢
Crime of passion. She should be acquitted by a fully informed jury, not what the DA tells them the facts are. Jury has the right to nullify unjust laws.
She shouldnt have killed him, but i get it
She should called the police not premeditated murder lmao how did he have the photos? and have the photos even been confirmed to exist? She not telling the whole story seems like she was trying to shut him up about something
Just wondering how she thought destroying the computer would make her look more innocent?
Why did she not grab the computer and go to the police. None of this would have never happened
The stepfather's friend is oblivious to the suffering of that poor young woman. I wonder how he would feel if he found out that there were photos of his daughters on the laptop?
i would visit her daily…. this legal system is a joke …. 5-10 years would be ok but 25 years comon !!!! that man was sick
He groomed her and I wouldn't be shocked to find out she wasn't his only victim. She shouldn't have to spend one second in jail.
These people are sick! A pervert gets more justice and support than most innocent victims…..
she prob planted the pics on his laptop to get rid of him
She's lucky. First degree murder often means the death penalty in other states.
Wow, his partner is droning on and on talking about himself.
I think Jade got in over her head over how to handle the situation with her step father. I think the men in her life have made themselves overtly available because of Jade’s attractiveness but never really committed themselves to help this young woman deal with this properly and things just got of hand for Jade. I don’t think she’s cold blooded like the media has portrayed her. Jade is not beyond rehabilitation and redemption. I hope she gets her appeal.
This is an UNJUST VERDICT! That man was a perverted creep who lulled her into a false sense of security while stealing her private, personal nude photos for DECADES. How DARE these people completely ignore that man’s disgusting, shameful, traitorous actions! Poor Jade…. Justice for Jade Jenks! She deserves her freedom!!
Sick man..smh..
TOMS Business partner waffle OH YES omg WAFLED ON AND ON !! EMPTY VESSELS MAKE LOUDEST NOISE !!! on Reading between lines toms death cost his partner only on his LOST DOLLARS ZERO COMPASSION FOR .THE VICTIM NO MENTION OF FEELINGS OF SORRY FOR TOMS DEBAUTCHED DARK SIDE ..SHAME ON ALL HIS FRIENDS WHOM NEVER SPOKE UP FOR HIS DEPRAVED ASSAULT AND DESPICABLE CRIMES .ALL ABOUT HOW GREAT HE WAS THIS SENTENCE
