Janet (Murder, She Baked)

Janet (Kirsten Robek) is the hidden main villainess from the 2016 TV film, Murder, She Baked: A Deadly Recipe, the fourth film of Hallmark Movie Channel's Murder, She Baked series (airdate June 19, 2016). She is a receptionist for the Eden Lake Police Department.
Janet was also in love with town sheriff Jim Grant, and she served as a means of emotional support for Jim following the death of his son, Peter. It was during the time that passed that Janet's feelings for Jim developed, but she made up a fictitious boyfriend--Brad--to hide her affections. Once Jim's marriage to Nettie was on the verge of ending, Janet arranged a meeting with Jim, and it was at that moment that she revealed that she made up Brad and revealed her love for him, stating that they were meant to be together. Jim turned down Janet's affections, and after this, Janet grabbed a brick and struck Jim's head, killing him in a fit of rage.
The villainess left Jim and returned to her position, and she was on the receiving end of Hannah Swenson's call when she found the body--all while hiding her role as a murderess. After Hannah and Mike Kingston fought off a gang of car thieves, the former encountered Janet as she was mourning over Jim. Hannah looked over Janet's collage and noticed a photo of Janet glancing somewhat amorously at Jim while he was with Nettie, and after seeing a torn photo of Jim in the trash, Hannah deduced that Janet was Jim's killer. She later met Janet at a nearby bridge, and it was there that Janet confessed everything; her affections for Jim and the confrontation that led to Janet killing her crush. Hannah informed Janet that she would have to return to the station and confess, and it was there that Janet was handcuffed and arrested following her admission.
