Case Story |

Abandoned Baby Sparks Massive Investigation |
|
| |
It started on July 9, 2007 when a baby boy was found abandoned outside Christiana Hospital in Newark, Delaware.
Cops say a nurse returned to the hospital after her lunch break to find the baby boy alone in the parking lot with a hand-written note identifying him as "John Vincent." Cops say the note explained his parents could no longer care for him, citing a loss of medical insurance as one reason.
Police say it wasn't long before they discovered the note was misleading -- "John Vincent" was not the baby's real name. Cops began investigating the child's real identity, and five days later, they got the tip they needed. Cops say the tipster worked at an apartment complex in Hightstown, N.J., and recognized the baby as 11-month-old Michael DiGirolamo. Cops had learned the baby's name -- but quickly realized Michael's abandonment was just the tip of the iceberg. |

Troubling Developments |

Police soon identified Michael's mother as Amy Giordano, a 27-year-old Hightstown woman. But the trouble was, no one had seen or heard from Amy since June 8 -- the day before Michael was found abandoned. That day, cops say Amy had talked to her other son -- from a previous relationship -- on the phone. After that, Amy went missing. Amy's apartment, in which she lived with Michael, appeared to be deserted with the exception of the child's toys and diapers. But even more troubling was the information cops learned about Michael's father, Rosario "Roy" DiGirolamo.
Investigators say on June 14, DiGirolamo, 33, boarded a flight from Newark, Delaware to Milan, Italy. His round-trip tickets indicated he would fly back to N.J. on June 28 -- but cops say he has yet to return. Cops fear DiGirolamo's sudden trip to Italy may indicate he's fleeing, and the Delaware State Police have subsequently charged him with felony reckless endgagerment of a child, and misdemeanor child abandonment. Both charges alledge he was responsible for abandoning his own son. Cops say they've tracked DiGirolamo's cell phone -- and on June 9, the day Michael was found, the cell "pinged" off a tower near the hospital.
Cops say they're also considering DiGirolamo a person of interest in Amy's disappearance |

Who Is Rosario DiGirolamo? |
|
| |
Cops say they're learning quite a bit about DiGirolamo from their investigation -- including that DiGirolamo is married to another woman and has another young son, who he lived with in Millstone Township, N.J. His wife was reportedly unaware of DiGirolamo's alleged affair with Amy Giordano and the child she shared with DiGirolamo.
Police say DiGirolamo was a computer analyst who last showed up at work on June 11. Police say his wife confirmed DiGirolamo left for work that morning, and his employer confirmed he worked that day -- but cops received reports that DiGirolamo hurried out of work at the end of the workday. Cops say they found DiGirolamo's 1998 Lexus on June 26, parked on a residential street in Staten Island, N.Y. Cops say the car was processed for clues but the results showed no signs of foul play and provided no new leads.
Cops have released surveillance footage of Amy, Michael, and DiGirolamo from a grocery store in East Windsor, N.J. on June 7. In the video, DiGirolamo pushes Michael in a grocery cart as Amy walks ahead of them. Police hope the video might help jog the memories of other shoppers who may have seen the three that night.
Additonally, cops say they're investigating a possible link between DiGirolamo and organized crime. The home DiGirolamo owned in Millstone Township reportedly previously belonged to a prominent member of the state's DeCavalcante crime family. While cops say there is no evidence of foul play at this point in the investigation, they are not ruling out any possible angles to this case. |
