Summary
What happened, as the record shows.
Jamie Lynn Stickle, 33, a popular bartender and manager in Pittsburgh, was found in the early hours of February 8, 2002, in her burning Jeep Wrangler outside her North Side apartment. An autopsy indicated smoke inhalation, and blood was found on her car door, her apartment door about 20 feet away, and the pavement, with purse contents scattered. The Allegheny County Coroner's Office ruled the manner of death undetermined rather than homicide. Police made the case inactive after six months for lack of leads, and no suspect has ever been identified.
