ANSONIA, CONNECTICUT, JUL 14 – Jose Morales was sentenced to 65 years for the 2019 murder of Christine Holloway; their 14-month-old daughter Vanessa remains missing, with family continuing search efforts.
- On Monday, 48-year-old Jose Morales received a 65-year sentence for murdering his girlfriend, Christine Holloway, in Ansonia, Connecticut, in 2019.
- In April, a jury found Morales guilty of killing his girlfriend and tampering with evidence after he was identified by police as a suspect in the disappearance of their 14-month-old daughter, Vanessa, who has yet to be found.
- Morales testified that while he was under the influence of PCP, two intruders entered the apartment, used a crowbar to assault Holloway, and then kidnapped Vanessa, although her family members claimed he continued to be untruthful about the case.

- Relatives spoke emotionally at sentencing, condemning Morales while vowing never to stop searching for Vanessa and highlighting the broader societal ills linked to PCP and drug use.
