Frenético: The Disappearance and Murder of Christina Morris

Disappearance from Plano Mall

• 🧠 Christina had a lifelong fear of darkness and being kidnapped, a fear that tragically materialized.

Initial Suspects and Investigation

• ⚠️ Hunter Foster, Christina's boyfriend, initially raised suspicion due to his lack of cooperation, deleted phone messages, and absence from searches.
• ✅ However, Hunter's alibi was later confirmed: he was selling drugs in Dallas at the time of the disappearance, clearing him of direct involvement in her vanishing.
• 🔍 Enrique Arochi, an acquaintance, was identified as the last person seen with Christina on blurry security footage leaving the mall parking lot.
