After law enforcement identified the woman, they found that she had a 2-year-old daughter at the time of her death — now investigators are looking to find that daughter, named Christa Nicole, who would be 34 years old this year
Richmond County District Attorney Michael McMahon said at a Tuesday press conference that the victim, now identified as Christine Belusko, was hit more than a dozen times with a hammer and then was set on fire before she was found dead in 1991.
Her body was found in a vacant lot in the Ocean Breeze area a day after she was killed, according to investigators. Belusko lived in Morris County, New Jersey, at the time of her death. Over 30 years ago, an unidentified young woman was found brutally murdered on Staten Island’s East Shore. After years of work aided by innovative forensic genealogy, we ID’d Christine Belusko of Morris County, NJ as the victim, & that Christine had a 2 y/o child, Christa Nicole
