Teeth and fingers were removed from swimsuit model Jasmine Fiore, believed to be murdered by her reality-star former husband, according to law enforcement authorities. The dismemberment was apparently an effort to stymie efforts at identifying her body, which was found earlier this week in a suitcase in a trash bin in Southern California. Police are currently hunting for Ryan Alexander Jenkins in Canada, reports the Los Angeles Times.
