Jenny Soto was a 23-year-old Latina from New York City whose last known movements were in Manhattan late on November 16, 1992. The next day her body was found along the Harlem River in the Bronx; she was wearing only a T-shirt. Her sister later described torn-off artificial nails and skin under Jenny’s fingernails, details that were reported as evidence she fought during an assault.

Investigators later connected Jenny’s death to Joel Rifkin, whom they say picked her up near the Williamsburg Bridge area late on November 16, strangled her, and left her body in the river. Rifkin was arrested in 1993; a Bronx grand jury indicted him in February 1994 for Jenny Soto’s murder, and the prosecution’s case ultimately included her among multiple victims for which he received life sentences.

If anyone knew Jenny, saw her that night, or has information about her last movements in Manhattan or the Bronx, please share what you remember.
