In 2019, Christine Holloway, 43, was found dead in her bathtub, beaten. Her 14‑month‑old daughter, Vanessa Morales, vanished.   Police arrested Jose Morales, 48, Vanessa's father, for the murder. He testified two intruders broke into the apartment, one of them attacked Holloway with a crowbar, and then took the child.  Morales claimed he was high on PCP, unable to stop the attack.  Prosecutors alleged Morales struck Holloway repeatedly with a blunt object. He then cleaned the scene for 37 hours,  disposing of the blood‑soaked evidence. Morales was convicted in April last year of murder and evidence tampering, sentenced  to 65 years in prison.    The child, Vanessa, was last seen two days before her mother's death. An Amber Alert was issued, but  she is still missing.   Anyone with information on Vanessa’s disappearance is urged to contact the police department at 203-7351885 Joining Nancy Grace today: * Jodi Jacobellis -Aunt of Vanessa Morales' and sister-in-law of Christine Holloway - who was murdered * Anna Rodonski  - Great Aunt of Vanessa Morales and Aunt of Christine Holloway - who was murdered  * Mike Gould  - Former Nassau County (NY) lieutenant and Founding member of the New York Police Department (NYPD) K-9 unit.  Former National Guardsman and has worked on secret service detail for two presidents  * Rachel Toles  - Clinical and Forensic Psychologist, Author of upcoming book  “Inventing the Psychopath: How a Convenient Myth Makes the World More Dangerous,” website: DrRachelToles.com, Instagram / YouTube: TolzHaus, Facebook: DrRachelToles  * Marissa Alter  - Lead Reporter, News 12 Connecticut, www.news12.com [http://www.news12.com/], Facebook: @MarissaAlterReporter, Instagram: @marissaalternews X: @MarissaAlter  * Dave Mack  -  Investigative Reporter, 'Crime Stories'    See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
