Murders of Earl and Clarissa Gonzales

Earl & Clarissa Gonzales

On September 2, 1999, 51-year-old Earl Gonzales's girlfriend, MaryJo Resse went to his home in Questa, New Mexico. Inside she found the bodies of Earl and his daughter 10-year-old Clarissa. Earl was likely shot with his own .45 Ruger Blackhawk, which was missing from the scene and Clarissa was assaulted and strangled to death. There was little evidence and seemed to be no motive in this case. 

A week before their deaths Earl had confronted a few people he suspected about his vehicle that had just been stolen. His vehicle was located a month later with two juveniles and they were charged with the theft.
