‘Tiger Lady’ Identified As Missing Coatesville Teen, Wendy
Louise Baker, 30 Years Later
BELVIDERE, N.J. (AP) — Authorities used DNA to finally identify
the body of a 1991 homicide victim in New Jersey known by her
tattoo as “Tiger Lady.” However, her death and killer remain
unknown.
Warren County Prosecutor James Pfeiffer on Friday announced the
victim is Wendy Louise Baker of Coatesville, Pennsylvania.
She was 16 years old when her body was found off Interstate 80
in Knowlton Township near the Pennsylvania border on Oct. 26,
1991. Her death was ruled a homicide, but investigators were
never able to determine how she died. There were no gunshot
wounds or significant trauma.
She became known as the “Tiger Lady” because of a tiger tattoo
on her left calf.
The prosecutor says DNA extracted from her bones in 2020 helped
authorities update her profile and to explore genealogical
databases. That led police in July 2021 to one of her uncles in
Pennsylvania, who identified his missing niece.
Her mother died in 1999 and her father died in 2015. The
prosecutor said she was raised by her stepmother until she was
15 years old.
DNA obtained from the Pennsylvania State Police confirmed Bruce
Baker was her father.
Pfeiffer has made it a priority to use DNA technology to help
solve cold case homicides since he took office last year.
