The Dark Side Of Craigslist

A Shallow Grave

In 2010, 26-year-old Jennifer Papain was a prostitute who was offering her services on Craigslist when she got a response from 23-year-old Chad Johnson. The two agreed to meet up and Johnson was going to pay Papain $80 for her services.

Johnson paid Papain before the deed was done, but somewhere along the way asked for his money back. When Papain refused to return the money, Johnson got aggressive and began to strangle Papain to the point where she died. Johnson buried her in a shallow grave, but her disappearance led police to discover her body and to find out that Johnson was previously convicted of assault in which he choked his victims.
