SOUTHAMPTON - A Paulsboro woman who overdosed in a man's car was left dead on the side of a rural road here, authorities say.

The body of Kerri Stetser, 36, was found on Halloween night on Purgatory Road, a isolated lane in a wooded area of rural Southampton Township, according to New Jersey State Police.

A Lawnside man and a Camden woman are accused of leaving the remains, which were found by a passer-by around 7:40 p.m.

According to state police, an investigation determined Stetser overdosed on Oct. 31 in the vehicle of 53-year-old Daniel Waterfield. He allegedly contacted Amanda Seth, 35, of Camden, "who aided in the disposal of the body," police said.

Stetser's body, found on a berm of Purgatory Road near Route 70, carried no ID, but authorities were able to identify the woman through a fingerprint.

Waterfield and Seth were arrested without incident in Camden on Nov. 1.

They were charged with desecration of human remains and evidence tampering.

Waterfield was being held Monday at Burlington County Jail, while Seth was released pending a bail hearing.
