Prosecutor: Arrest Made in Dead Body Discovery

Following an investigation, an arrest has been made in connection with the discovery last week of a dead body in a parked car in Atlantic Highlands, authorities at the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office said on Tuesday.

A 28-year-old from Middlesex County, Jordan J. Vilcatoma-Correjo, of Edison, has been charged with second-degree desecration of human remains in connection with the incident.

Vilcatoma-Correjo is being held in the Monmouth County Correctional Institution, Freehold Township. He has been held there since Saturday, when he was arrested on the charge.

The dead woman’s identity is not being released until family has been notified.
