On December 25, 2022 a Christmas Horror occurred, as the West Windsor Police Patrol Unit found the deceased body of a woman, on the shoulder of US Route 1 North (an unoccupied former car dealership).

The WWPD Detective Bureau and Administration arrived at the scene thereafter, and took over the investigation in conjunction with members of the Mercer County Prosecutor’s Homicide Task Force (HTF). The Middlesex Regional Medical Examiner’s Office removed the deceased female.

The victim was seen as a white woman in her 40’s, and later identified as Stephanie A. Carmody.  The Manner and Cause of Death are still being determined at this time. Stephanie Carmody’s Facebook page said she had been working as a freelance model.
