This evidence included a confession by Jane Doe #1 to a Mike Stephemson about having sex with her dad since she was 10 years old. And a picture of a hotel key to Holiday Inn Express in Eureka captioned, "Key to Kitten hotel." Kitten was Smith's nickname for Jane Doe #1. The nickname he chose for himself was Master.
