Jose Morales was sentenced to 65 years in prison for murdering his girlfriend, Christine Holloway, in 2019. Their infant daughter, Vanessa, who was 14 months old at the time of Holloway's death, has not been found. Despite being a suspect in Vanessa's disappearance, Morales was never charged. Family members expressed their grief and anger during the sentencing, highlighting the brutality of the crime. Morales claimed that he was attacked by intruders and under the influence of PCP during the incident. The judge condemned his actions as vicious and problematic for society.
"What was done to my niece Christine Holloway is unforgivable and disgusting and that monster continues to lie. Where is Vanessa? How can someone be so cruel?" said Anna Rodonski, Holloway's aunt.
Before handing down the sentence, Judge Shari Murphy called the crime vicious and said Morales showed a careless indifference to human life. 'Mr. Morales, you are a dangerous person, a significant threat to society and you need to be removed from the community for a substantial period of time,' the judge said.
