Unique tattoo links missing stripper 27 to dismembered body found along NYC highway family

“She just cut herself off [from] the entire family,” Geneva, 41, said of Christina. “I know that she was stripping and selling her body. I don’t know if she was, like, escorting, but she was in that lifestyle.”

The cousin said that at some point, the family saw the photo that cops had put out of a distinctive rose tattoo on the dead woman’s body and recognized it as Christina’s, leading her distraught mom to identify her daughter’s remains at the morgue.

“We don’t know if it was a serial killer or someone that was close to our family because it seemed as if it’s just sitting there,” she said of the murder case. “Like, it’s going to be one of those cold cases.”

Christina’s death was ruled a homicide, but her killer remains a mystery.

A city Department of Transportation worker made the grisly discovery while mowing the grass near the area’s famed Cypress Hills Cemetery around 10:30 a.m. on Aug. 6, according to police.
