Former Fox News staffer Jennifer Eckhart dead at 36

Jennifer Eckhart, a former Fox Business producer, was found dead in Florida.

Martin County sheriff’s spokesperson Christine Christofek said the 36-year-old’s death, discovered Sept. 19, was ruled a suicide. Eckhart worked at Fox Business for seven years before leaving in 2020. She filed a lawsuit that year alleging rape and other misconduct by Ed Henry; Henry denied misconduct cited in a Fox News email, and the case was settled last year.
