In the early hours of December 13, 2007, 47-year-old Nancy Bochicchio and her daughter, 8-year-old Joey Bochicchio-Hauser were found tied up and shot to death from point-blank range in their black 2007 Chrysler Aspen SUV, parked in a merchandise pick-up area on the south side of Sears, after Town Center Mall security workers saw the occupied car with its engine running in an otherwise empty lot shortly after midnight.
Police believe the double-homicide is linked to an Aug. 7 carjacking and kidnapping at Town Center, in which a man held up a 30-year-old woman and her 2-year-old son at gunpoint in the Nordstrom parking garage about 6:30 p.m. In that incident, the robber held a gun to the toddler's head and made the woman withdraw $600 from an area bank before taking her back to the parking garage, according to a relative of the boy.
"It was pretty scary," the relative said. "Now, she's terrified all over again. We don't want this guy going and looking for her. This guy's still roaming around. To her, it was a pretty scary thing. It was surreal. She just wants them to catch the (expletive)."
A composite sketch released Friday by police was based on the woman's description of the carjacker in the Aug. 7 robbery and kidnapping.
Police spokesman Sgt. Jeff Kelly said chances are "very good" the gunman in that crime killed the mother and daughter during the "late afternoon or evening Wednesday."
"The (forensic) evidence they found from the first scene is similar to evidence found at the second scene," Kelly said.
The "person of interest" in the killings is described as a white or Hispanic man, 18 to 25 years old. He stands between 5-feet-10 and 6 feet, has a medium build and could have a ponytail. The composite shows him wearing dark sunglasses and a drawstring hat.
After this week's slayings, police increased after-hours patrols at the Town Center mall.
Reward offered
The city of Boca Raton is offering a $350,000 reward for information in the killing of Nancy and Joey Bochicchio-Hauser, distributing a poster with the picture at left, and which describes the man as "a person of interest" who "is described as White or Hispanic male, 18-25 years of age, 5' 10"-6' tall, medium build, possibly with a ponytail."
