Summary

The Mysterious 1995 Death Of "Jennifer Fairgate", A Woman Who Does Not Exist With Guest Host Justin Rimmel.

On the evening of May 31, 1995, a woman using the alias Jennifer Fairgate checked into a luxury hotel in Oslo, Norway. Three days later, she was found dead inside her room of a single gunshot wound to the middle of her forehead. Oslo authorities ruled the death a suicide, mainly because she was found alone, there was no indication she was with anyone, nor was there any indication she was ever in the company of anyone else, and she died behind a hotel room door that generally needs to be locked from the inside. But there were other signs that this may not have been a suicide after all; that Jennifer, in fact, was murdered. If that was the case, then why? Why was she killed, who did, and the biggest question of all…who was Jennifer Fairgate. Because to this day, there has never been anybody identified as having that name that matched up to Jennifer’s general description. Nobody knows who she was, where she came from, what she was in Oslo for…nobody knows her real name, her address was fake, her phone number was bogus, her place of work didn’t exist. Making things even more confusing were the personal effects that were found in the room with Jennifer…deepening the mystery even more were the things that weren’t found in her room. This is the discussion Justin and I had last week about the Mysterious Ms. Jennifer Fairgate….

0:00.0	Hello Dreamers and welcome to this latest bonus collaboration episode. I have a guest host
0:07.0	today from the mysterious circumstances podcast. You have heard him here on our show several
0:13.5	times before. He is Justin Rimmel. Full disclosure, we recorded this conversation about this case
0:24.0	late at night, especially late for him because Justin is on Eastern time and I'm on Pacific
0:30.3	time. So he's three hours ahead of me and he didn't even get home from work until sometime
0:35.2	after 11.30 pm. And while we did hit most of the important points in this story, there
0:41.2	are times when we get ahead of ourselves and by the last 30 or 40 minutes, you can really
0:48.8	start to hear it in our voices that we are both about to nod off. And I started sounding
0:55.9	tired and raspy, but we made it almost all the way through. I did have more notes that I wanted
1:02.9	to go over. I had no idea though that this episode was going to go this long. In order for
1:09.0	our meandering sleepy ramblings to make a little bit more sense, I'm going to go ahead and give you
1:14.7	a brief synopsis of the case ahead of our discussion. And then I will play the recording of our
1:21.9	conversation for you after that. On the evening of May 31st, 1995, a woman using the alias
1:30.7	Jennifer Fairgate checked into a luxury hotel in Oslo, Norway. Three days later, she was found
1:38.8	dead inside her room of a single gunshot wound to the middle of her forehead. Oslo authorities
1:45.2	ruled the death a suicide, mainly because she was found alone. There was no indication that she
1:51.9	was with anyone, nor was there any indication she was ever in the company of anyone else while she
1:57.9	was there at that hotel. And she died behind her hotel room door that generally needs to be locked
2:07.3	or can only be locked from the inside. But there were other signs that this may not have been
2:14.0	a suicide after all, that Jennifer may in fact have been murdered. If that was the case, then we
2:22.8	have a whole bunch of other questions starting with why. Why was she killed? And if Jennifer
2:31.2	was murdered, who did it? And the biggest question of all, it's the biggest mystery that's been
