What Jennifer Did is out on Netflix now, and the true crime documentary tells the story of Jennifer Pan and her plot to kill her parents, Bich Ha Pan and Huei Hann Pan.

Vietnamese couple Bich Ha Pan and Huei Hann Pan had created a nice life for themselves after moving to Canada, and had lived there happily for 30 years. The couple had always been strict parents, and pushed daughter Jennifer and son Felix to try their best academically.

Huei Hann Pan found out that his daughter Jennifer had lied to him about having a college degree and hadn’t even finished high school. He also didn’t approve of Jennifer’s choice of boyfriend.

The family’s world changed in November 2010, when in the middle of the night masked men raided the family home. At first it seemed as though it was burglary, when the masked men asked Jennifer’s parents to hand over all of their money. Then the masked men took the couple into the basement and shot them. Mother Bich was killed instantly, but father Hann survived.

One of the key things that meant Jennifer was found out was her father’s testimony. He was placed into a coma after the incident, but when he came round said his daughter had been talking to the intruders as though she knew them.
