After filming, Tiffani Thiessen who plays Jenny Monroe met the Avila family.

Tiffani Thiessen, who plays Jenny Monroe said on her question and answer blog that playing Jenny was the hardest role for her to play in her career. She continued on to say that it was the most emotionally and physically exhausting role for her.

In the movie, Jenny Monroe is portrayed as an all American/Caucasian girl. Missy Avila was actually an all American/Hispanic girl.

The movie is a cleaner version of what had happened to Missy Avila. There was a book written shortly after the murder, however, according to Missy's family on their Facebook page, it isn't accurate. They are coming out with a documentary to tell the true events that took place.

In the movie, Jean asks Ellen to move out, however this did not happen in real life. Mrs. Avila never asked Karen Severson to move out and also let her stay in Missy's room and even wear her clothes.

Tiffani Thiessen was just 18 while filming this movie. She participated in this film after filming Saved by the Bell: Hawaiian Style (1992), which she took a season break from Saved by the Bell (1989), besides the fact that she only appears for 25 minutes of the film.

If you look carefully, you'll notice Jenny sports a braid in her hair when she has it half-up. After her death, Ellen starts braiding her hair the same way Jenny did - hinting to her obsession.

When Ellen is packing her things at her house, the camera pans across the shrine she has of Jenny with newspaper clippings and pictures of her, Jenny and Carla while Jenny was alive. On one of the newspapers it reads : "Mission High girl found face down in-" This is a nod to Missy Avila, whose murder the movie is based on. She went to Mission High School.

In the movie, the murder is solved after about a year. In real life - it took 3 years.

When Ellen is walking around the hall, up to Jenny's room - a real picture of Tiffani Thiessen as a baby is visible on the wall behind her.

Jenny's grave reads "Jennifer Anne Monroe Beloved Daughter-Sister - Our Precious Jenny"

The names given to the characters often rhyme with the names of the real people involved or have similar letter or sound makeups.

Tiffani Thiessen's character Jenny Monroe, wears 5 or 6 outfits in the scenes she's in - alternating the same shirts or jackets with outfits. She wears the same outfit of jeans, white shirt and blue jacket in 3 scenes, the yellow shorts ensemble in two scenes, the house wear in 2 scenes and the rest once.

When Ellen walks into Jenny's room, you can find the objects listed : A George Michael tour poster, 2 Bon Jovi posters, school banner for AFHS, cheerleading pom-poms, school certificate on the wall along with pictures of herself and friends, a girl scouts poster, unfinished homework and untouched open books on her desk, a table in front of the window where she keeps her makeup in a basket, a mirror, scrunchies on the mirror handle, a white-cord telephone, a unicorn toy, a poster of ballerinas, perfume bottles, and hairbrushes.

Tiffani Thiessen wore a minimal amount of makeup for this role. Including concealer, foundation, mascara, eye liner and water-liner.

Both Karen Severson (Ellen Holloway) and Laura Doyle (Carla Lewis) have been let out of jail, Severson in December 2011 and Doyle in December 2012.

In real life, the victim's name was Michelle "Missy" Avila. The murderers were Laura Doyle and Karen Severson. A book was written by Karen Kingsbury called 'Missy's Murder.'

In the movie, while Ellen and Carla are arguing, Jenny gets out of the car to stop them and then gets turned on. In real life, a terrified Missy stayed in the car, Karen and Laura dragged her out of the car.

In the movie, Ellen had never threatened Jenny before the murder. In real life, Karen threatened Missy with a broken bottle before the murder.
