Jennifer Moore
July 28, 2006
A teen from New Jersey was found murdered in a dumpster in Weehawken yesterday. She had been missing for 48 hours after partying in New York City. When she and her friend went to leave the club, they discovered their car had been towed. After going to the impound lot, Jennifer’s friend passed out and had to be taken to the hospital. Then Jennifer somehow wandered away and got lost. She was either lured or abducted in a yellow cab, taken to Weehawken and strangled in a hotel room. They have a guy in custody who they think is the killer, but I know from personal experience, it doesn’t make the friends and family feel much better. As Jennifer’s dad said in a news conference yesterday, “We had about 5 seconds of relief.”
All of us here at Girls Fight Back send our condolences to all who loved Jennifer.

Got something to say?
To the Moore Family:
I am very sorry for what had happened to your daughter. There is no excuse for any human being to do that to your daughter. She was beautiful and young and had her whole life to live. I think the police officers definitely need to do a better job of getting these “drifters” off the streets. I plan to think of ways of how less tragedies like this could happen and hopefully make a difference. This man should have been in jail in the first place. The legal system has failed you and is very pathetic! I hope a very serious punishment serves him.
For your daughter, I will pray for her that she is in peace and that I will let her know I am sorry life had to end like this for her. She was scared and never deserved this.
I will definitely pray for you, the Moore family. I hope that somehow you all just stay strong.
I have been deeply moved by this horrible tragedy. I find myself needing to share a little history about myself. I, too, at 22 years old once was too drunk to know where I was and ended up in a hotel room with someone I didn’t know. Please know that alcohol is a very potent drug, some people can tolerate it while others like me cannot. Being a girl of small height and weight like Jennifer and with the amount of alcohol in my system made me afraid to tell anyone what I had done and that I was left alone and robbed in this room when I came too. I didn’t want it to happen, I was too drunk. Before I knew what was happening it was too late. Please pay some attention to need to learn about this powerful attraction to alcohol. If anyone else goes through this, there are people who can help. Reach out. I will pray for Jennifer’s parents for peace in their hearts and know that I feel for them in the deepest place in mine. Thank you.
