Danielle Baxter, a 39-year-old mother of three, has been arrested and charged with several offenses, including murder and abuse of a corpse, following the fatal shooting of her 38-year-old husband, Jordan Baxter, outside their home in Philadelphia.
Authorities reported that Jordan Baxter’s body was found on a plastic sheet between two cars parked outside the residence on March 19. He had suffered a gunshot wound to the head, with a gun placed on his chest. Bloodstains were also discovered inside the home, where the couple lived with their three children.
In a chilling development, Danielle Baxter had shared unsettling posts on Facebook just days before the murder, expressing fears about other women allegedly “plotting” against her marriage.
On March 14, she wrote, “These females out here be plotting on your marriage and waiting for your downfall so they can come right on in and these men let them.”
Danielle Baxter was taken into custody on March 20 and is currently being held pending a court appearance scheduled for April 7.
