Jimmy and Lily Ming were kidnapped from their home shortly after a family wedding in January of 1985 in the Strathcona neighborhood of Vancouver, BC. The Ming family received a ransom note the next day with an impossible sum, but tried their best to not only raise the ransom money but reason with the kidnappers. 7 weeks later, the kidnapping would come to a tragic end, but investigators could only speculate about who was responsible. Today, the case of Jimmy and Lily Ming is still unsolved - what happened to this young couple?
