Christine Marion Jessop was a nine-year-old Canadian girl from Queensville, Ontario who was abducted, raped, and murdered by a person or persons unknown in October 1984. Her body was found about 50km from her home, in Durham Region on New Year's Eve of the same year.

Jessop's murder led to one of Canada's most famous wrongful conviction cases. Guy Paul Morin was initially convicted of the crime, and then exonerated by DNA evidence. As of 2006 the murder remains unsolved.
