Authorities Identify Woman Wrapped in Plastic, Buried in Shallow Grave Behind 24-Hour Diner in 1995

Authorities north of Philadelphia have identified human remains they say were found "unclothed," "wrapped in a plastic tarp," and buried in a shallow grave behind a 24-hour diner in 1995.

This victim was extremely petite. 4'8" to 5'2" and I would think slender if she's working at a strip club. So this girl's very small. Where her remains were found there's pretty close proximity to the Delaware River, and I know she was in Bucks County, which is popular for hunting and antiquing. Agreed that whoever placed the victim there probably accessed the area via woods and not the street with the diner. Possibly an SK that targeted very petite SWs, and who's a hunter (and there are some being currently discussed on other threads). Interesting that they recovered her remains with two crucifixes, usually only one is worn. Seeing estimated time of death would be 1992.

RIP Merrybeth.
