Folk Figure. On June 3, 1995, the body of a woman was found inside room 2805 of the Oslo Plaza hotel. She checked into the hotel with the false name of "Jennifer Fairgate." Her death was ruled a suicide with a Browning 9mm pistol found in her hand. However, the lack of gunshot residue and blood on her hand raised questions about the cause of death. No identification was found in the hotel room and the pistol's serial number was scratched off. An autopsy determined that the woman was around 30 years old (she lied about her age, claiming that she was 21), stood 5'3, weighed 147 pounds, had blue eyes with short, black hair. She had extensive dental work done that was done in gold and porcelain indicating a wealthy background. Her belongings contained expensive clothes with all but one of the brand tags removed. She was last seen alive the previous day when she ordered room service at 8:06 PM. In November 2016, her body was exhumed to try to collect a DNA profile. On June 2017, a DNA profile was successfully extracted from her body. The unusual circumstances of her death were covered on Netflix's "Unsolved Mysteries."
