Body Of Woman Found In River
By Rick Wills and Tom Yerace
TRIBUNE-REVIEW
Saturday, October 25, 2003
Investigators worked Friday to identify a woman whose body, wrapped in a blue blanket and bound with duct tape, was pulled from the Allegheny River near the {Fox} Chapel Yacht Club in O'Hara.
The Allegheny County Coroner's Office described the woman as white, 5 feet 3 inches tall and 97 pounds. She appeared to have been 30 to 40 years old.
The body was wrapped in the blanket and bound with silver duct tape wrapped several times around the neck, torso and legs, investigators said. The woman's legs were bound with duct tape and a plastic bag was over her head.
"It's definitely a homicide because of the way (the body) was wrapped," Allegheny County police Assistant Superintendent James Morton said. Morton said investigators were checking reports of missing people. Deputy Coroner Heather Morici said that because of dams and other obstructions upstream, the body could not have been put into the river more than 10 miles from where it was found.
The body was badly decomposed, suggesting it had been in the water at least a week, Morici said. The coroner's office has not determined the cause and manner of death, Morici said. "We just have no idea where she came from," Morici said.
The woman was wearing Season Tickets blue jeans with an elastic waist; a long-sleeved tan shirt; size 6 white underwear and large-sized, black Basic Edition shoes, according to the coroner's office.
Construction workers at Chapel Harbor, a housing and office complex being developed by the Zambrano Corp. along Old Freeport Road, noticed the body floating in an inlet formerly known as Hidden Harbor Marina.
Morton said the workers had seen an object floating in the water on Thursday but realized it might be a body only when it had drifted to the edge of the inlet. They called police about 9:30 a.m., Morton said. Rather than try to descend the steep banks of the inlet thick with overgrown weeds and brush, county detectives went a short distance up river to the Fox Chapel Yacht Club, where the rescue boat from the Blawnox-Glenover Volunteer Fire Department picked them up and took them back to the inlet. The body was pulled from the river about 11:30 a.m.
2006 Comments
I've heard nothing more concerning this woman, and have no idea of whether she was ever identified or not, or if her killer was ever identified or not.
If anyone has information concerning the case that they would like to share with me, they are welcome to send me an email, and I'll be glad to add the information to this page.
When writing about this case, please put 'PENN CLUES' in the subject line. Thank you.
October 2006 Comments
In September of 2006, I was contacted by a detective in Pennsylvania concerning a couple of other cases that used to appear on my web site. I was asked if I thought the above case involved the same man that I have been suspicious of for several years now. My reply was "yes."
The detective made an appointment to come to my home on [September 11th,] and bring along an FBI agent. However, no one ever showed up, never called to explain why they didn't come, no emails, nothing. So be it. My opinion has not changed in the least. Someone is killing our people. I'm not an idiot. I remember whose names I mention to police officers who call me, and I remember quite well who I have given information to. And just in case I should ever forget, I do have everything documented and there are several witnesses to whom I have given my work ....... and make no mistake about this ..... this is my work; my records; my killer. He's been obsessed with me and several other local women for many years now, and how the law or anyone else wants to interpret this obsession is of absolutely no importance to me.
I have not had a conversation with my suspect since 1994 - with the rare exception of a few words concerning another of his victims back in 1998. I am not 'in love' with the man - have no relationship with him of any kind, so I'd suggest members of law enforcement get this through their heads once and for all.
I am not a liar. If I say there are similarities in two or more cases, then there are similarities - simple as that. Every word on this web site has been placed there by me. No one else does my work for me. My records are accurate. My information is correct. My suspicions are legitimate and well founded .... and time [ and the perpetrator] will prove me correct. Then what?
