Dateline NBC: Who Killed Dwayne Demkiw & Why?

In the early morning of May 31, 2015, Jason Steadman killed Dwayne Demkiw and then set the victim’s car on fire. In February 2019, an Edmonton judge sentenced Steadman to 25 years in prison without the possibility of parole. Steadman was charged with first-degree murder. After the accused’s sentencing, the victim’s father, Eugene Demkiw, said,

“We’re relieved because it’s over now.”

Jason Steadman killed Dwayne Demkiw because according to CBC News, Jason’s girlfriend at the time, Angel Chalifoux, was Dwayne’s ex-girlfriend. Even though Angel Chalifoux and Dwayne Demkiw were not romantically involved, they were still very close. Key witnesses said that Jason and Dwayne had met each other in 2013. At that time, there was no animosity between the two men.

Two weeks before Dwayne’s death, Angel and Jason had ended their relationship. Details about this grotesque will be explained in the upcoming episode of Dateline NBC titled The Case of the Man with No Name.

The Case of the Man with No Name will air on Friday, November 3, 2023, at 9 p.m. ET on NBC.
