New Jersey State Police are asking for public assistance to identify a woman whose body was discovered in a refrigerator in Belleplain State Forest on Sunday (December 22). The forest spans Cumberland and Cape May counties, and the body was found in a section located in Dennis Township, Cape May County. The woman is described as being approximately 5-foot-1, and either Caucasian or Hispanic. She had two distinctive tattoos: a koi fish on her right shoulder blade and a rose extending from her left ribs to her hip. Alongside her body, police found a yoga mat with a green geometric pattern and a unique necklace.
Authorities have released images of the tattoos and jewelry in hopes that someone will recognize them and help identify the woman. They have not yet provided an estimated age or details about the manner of death. The investigation is ongoing, and anyone with information is encouraged to contact the New Jersey State Police Troop 'A' Woodbine Station at (609) 861-5698 or the Cape May County Prosecutor's Office at (609) 465-1135 ext. 3480.
