5 facts about this case.......good to read

“Kelsie put the baby to sleep, took her medication and went to bed herself,” Lee said. She added that Blankenship was woken up to noises, which is when she found her daughter unresponsive and immediately called 911.

Blankenship has suffered from addiction in the past, and has depression in which she takes medication for, “Sereniti was the road to Kelsie’s recovery.”

“She was going to be a teddy bear for Halloween,”

It is heartbreaking to read this. What kind of individual can harm an innocent little girl like this? Hope they find the monster ASAP.

After questioning the toddler's 22-year-old mother, Kelsie Blankenship, and the mother's boyfriend, 37-year-old Joshua Gurto, the Conneaut Law Director's Office filed charges and obtained an arrest warrant for Gurto in the murder and rape of Sereniti, according to WJW.

Gurto is a 5-foot-10, 145-pound male with a deformed right ear, misaligned jaw and tattoos on his right forearm, according to the outlet. He has not been seen since he first spoke to officers on the day of Sereniti's death.

This is a horrible, despicable and devastating crime, affecting everyone who has come into contact with it, including EMT personnel, Conneaut police officers and UH doctors, nurses and other medical personnel,” investigators wrote in a statement released by the Law Director’s Office on Friday afternoon.

Anyone with information on Gurto's whereabouts is asked to call the Conneaut Police Department at 440-593-7440. The tip line accepts anonymous calls at 440-593-7423.

There is an active search underway Thursday afternoon outside Pittsburgh for Joshua Gurto. US Marshals conducting the search are not releasing much information, just saying that an image of Gurto was spotted on surveillance camera at the Sheetz near the I-79 on ramp sometime in the last 48 hours. The area is being searched but investigators admit that enough time has passed for Gurto to leave the area.

“Sereniti was a beautiful beautiful baby; she always had a smile on her face,” Clarissa Murtha said. “She was always a happy baby.”


The Murthas began babysitting Sereniti about eight months ago.


“We were like her grandparents; we acted like her grandparents,” Murtha said. “We were so close to her all the time. She was a wonderful little girl. Sereniti was just learning to walk and just had her first birthday. We just loved her so much.”

I tried to not click on any links to not see a photo of the baby. I tried to not click the link to bring me to this thread.
There are not enough answers in the world for the WHYs of a case like this.
Godspeed to Law Enforcement to find this monster and get him off the streets.

Blessed baby girl. I'm so sorry :(

Crazy thing is that this is the first I am hearing of this and that he was SO CLOSE to this area! Our preschool certainly didn't know, as they had outdoor time today, and his general direction was toward all the schools in the area. Hopefully they get this 🤬🤬🤬 soon!

yes he was the moms boyfriend of 3 months.
He was spotted today on subservience camera at Mt. Nebo near Pittsburg, Pa. at a sheetz gas station.

I think the surveillance photo above is from October 13. He was spotted yesterday (Wednesday) in a Sheetz store in Pittsburgh. Is that right so far? Looks like he is transient.

I hope I am allowed to put this on here. My friend called me. Killer's tent is literally just feet from her daughters condo. The families have armed themselves. They see police action but got dark now and they are afraid. Pulled blinds and curtains which have been open. Locked doors and outside lights on. 79 is a main route, hopefully no one picks him up as a hitch hiker. Massive manhunt on KDKA breaking news. We have so many woods here and it is deer season!

Gosh I can’t find anything relating to those last two posts when I google. I sure hope they are right on the tail of this piece of human waste. I keep checking back hoping for an update.

I'm surprised this monster hasn't suicided yet. I hope he's caught TONIGHT.

They keep saying Pittsburgh but actually the exit of 79 is closer to Sewickley area about 12 miles from Pittsburgh city.
