There has been a break in the case of missing college student Jenni Lyn Watson today. The 20 year old student has been missing since November 19th when she returned home to Syracuse for the Thanksgiving holiday. Today her body was found in Clay Central Park near her home. Jenni Lyn Watson’s ex-boyfriend Steven Pieper has been arrested and charged with second degree murder.
The case started about 8 days ago when shortly after her return home from school Jenni Lyn was reported missing. It is believed by the investigators in this case that she was killed at her parents home and brought to a wooded area in Clay Town Park where her body was found today. Steven Pieper was the prime suspect from the start in the Jenni Lyn Watson disappearance and now murder. Steven Pieper appeared in court today and filed a plea of not guilty to the charge ofsecond degree murder in the case of Jenni Lyn Watson.
The 2 had been dating on and off for about a year and a half when this past October Jenni Lyn decided to end the relationship for good. It appears as though Mr. Pieper did not agree with the break up and went after Miss Watson. Her remains have been sent to the medical examiner for an autopsy on Sunday and Steven Pieper will remain in custody until his next court appearance on December 3rd. Jenni Lyn Watson was a promising young dancer who’s life has been taken to soon by her ex boyfriend Steven Pieper.
