WHAT JENNIFER DID : A NETFLIX DOCUMENTARY



Jennifer Pan was a young woman who lived in Canada with her parents, Bich Ha and Hann Pan. They were immigrants from Vietnam and had high expectations for Jennifer's future. Jennifer was under a lot of pressure to do well in school and make her parents proud.

But Jennifer was struggling. She wasn't doing as well in school as her parents wanted, and she was afraid of disappointing them. So, she started lying about her grades. She even forged report cards to make it look like she was doing better than she was.

As Jennifer's lies grew, so did the tension in her family. Her parents were strict, and they didn't tolerate dishonesty. Jennifer felt trapped between wanting to please her parents and wanting to be free to live her own life.

                      


To make matters worse, Jennifer had a boyfriend named Daniel Wong who her parents didn't approve of. They wanted her to focus on her studies and didn't want her dating anyone. But Jennifer was determined to be with Daniel, even if it meant going against her parents' wishes. Feeling desperate and trapped, Jennifer devised a plan to change her life. She wanted to be free from her parents' control and have access to her inheritance. So,she decided to stage a home invasion and have her parents killed.

On November 8, 2010, Jennifer put her plan into action. She arranged for Daniel and a group of accomplices to break into her family's home while her parents were there. During the attack, Jennifer's mother, Bich Ha, was killed, and her father, Hann Pan, was seriously injured.At first, Jennifer pretended to be a victim of the home invasion. She told the police that masked men had broken into their home and attacked her family. But as the investigation unfolded, inconsistencies in Jennifer's story started to emerge.

Detectives discovered that Jennifer had been lying about her academic achievements and her relationship with Daniel. They also found evidence that pointed to her involvement in planning the home invasion. During questioning, Jennifer eventually confessed to her role in the crime. She admitted to orchestrating the home invasion in hopes of gaining access to her inheritance and escaping her parents' control.

                                            

In 2014, Jennifer was found guilty of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years. Her accomplices, including Daniel Wong was also convicted for their role in the crime.

The case of Jennifer Pan shocked the community and sparked widespread debate about family expectations, cultural pressures, and the consequences of deceit. It also left a lasting impact on her family, who struggled to come to terms with the betrayal and loss they experienced.

Despite the tragedy, the Pan family's community came together to support Hann Pan as he recovered from his injuries and mourned the loss of his wife. The case of Jennifer Pan serves as a reminder of the dangers of letting pressure and deceit take control of one's life, and the devastating consequences that can result life's future.
