A body is dumped in a desolate field on the east shore of Staten Island.
The woman had been handcuffed, strangled, beaten to death and then the body set on fire. She went unnamed for over thirty years. New technology leads to an identification and another mystery.
Christine Belusko, raised in Montville, New Jersey, had been adopted by a loving family. Christine, however, didn't know she was adopted. When she found out, the news caused a rift with her parents.
Belusko tells her parents she is moving to Florida. This single mom however never made it South. While Belusko's body remained unidentified, it became known as the girl with the scorpion tattoo.
The death was caused by over 17 blows from a hammer. One mystery was solved when the remains are finally identified, but where is Christine's daughter?
