Guilty Until Proven Innocent

Garage Sale Mystery: Guilty Until Proved Innocent is a cut above the usual Hallmark mysteries. This series has antiques and collectibles, and often information about them, which makes it fun. It also sports a likable cast, mostly Canadian and starring Lori Loughlin.

In this film, Jennifer (Loughlin) is offered some antiques and collectibles by a friend to sell in her shop. While in a barn that holds some of the antiques, she sees that there is an entrance to a basement.

There, she discovers the body of her friends ex-fiancé, who allegedly left her for another woman. Turns out he didn't. Her friend is ultimately arrested, and Jennifer is determined to get her out of prison.

Jennifer discovers some interesting information about baseball cards besides going to the health club where the fiancé hung out and locating the woman he was supposedly leaving her friend for.

Okay story, easy to figure out, good for a rainy afternoon.

I watched all the Garage Sale Mysteries so far and loved these Movies. This would be a very good weekly 1hr show....or if that is not happening maybe more Movies like these in the near future (like Agatha Christie) It has a little bit of everything. Please continue ......... looking forward to more of these kind of movies, exciting, mysterious yet funny and relaxing in a way. I truly enjoy Jennifer Shannon and her family and Danny is great. Some of this show is filmed in Fort Langley. British Columbia, Canada and I live very close to this beautiful little Town, even recognize a lot of the surroundings. Just a beautiful place. Thank you

6/10 - captivating mystery will hold your interest and keep you guessing

7.4 stars.

This is the best one of the bunch so far (of the first 5 installments). I feel they are improving as they go, this one being far better than the previous one in my opinion. The idea of the hidden basement and all the relics is just very exciting to me, almost like they stumble upon a room full of treasures. The whodunnit aspect of the story is a stretch and not very interesting, so that detracts from the overall thrill of the adventure. The family and friend storyline is as fun and entertaining as ever. If you don't watch these for the mystery, just enjoy the family side of it. That is one major facet of 'Garage Sale Mysteries' that exceeds most other Hallmark mystery series, because the family in these is very endearing and down to earth, and very well developed.

Jennifer Shannon (Lori Loughlin) discovers a dead body. Her son is offered to have his high school grades upgraded by two friends. Her business partner Dannielle is offered a chance to hobnob with the elite in a new job offer as the Rags to Riches store is not doing so well.

Jennifer meets an old college friend Sandra who asks Jennifer to sell off some of her contents in her store for a commission. Jennifer jumps at the chance but in Sandra's basement she finds a mummified body.

It turns out to be Sandra's old boyfriend who was thought to have upped sticks and moved on. Sandra becomes the main suspect and is arrested.

This is a cheaply made Hallmark movie. The main problem is that it is boring and it also does not have much of a mystery. The main suspect is easily guessable.
