Man Charged in 1987 Murder of Missy Taylor Ellison After Calling Police Himself | True Crime News

Three days after Christmas 1987, 20-year-old Missy Taylor Ellison was beaten to death in her Jacksonville home while her 13-month-old daughter slept a room away. The killer left the baby unharmed on the living room couch and vanished. For 38 years, no one was charged. Then, last week, a 70-year-old man walked into a Florida credit union and called the sheriff's office to say he had information about the case. Hours later, he was under arrest. Vanessa walks you through the murder, the decades her family spent waiting, and the phone call that may finally give them an answer.If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Crime House 24/7 to never miss a case!
