TL;DR Summary

Authorities have identified Christine Belusko, known as "the girl with the scorpion tattoo," who was found murdered in New York City more than 30 years ago. Belusko's body was found "brutally beaten, strangled and burned" in a vacant lot on the East Shore of Staten Island in September 1991. Investigators hope that revealing her identity will help solve the case and track down her daughter, who was born in 1989 and should be 33 years old now. Authorities used forensic genealogy to identify Belusko and are now seeking the public's help in finding her killer and her daughter.
