Holly Clouse, who went missing as a baby, found over 40 years after her parents were murdered in Texas

A baby who has been missing since her parents were found murdered in a wooded area in Houston in 1981 has been found, Texas authorities have announced. Holly Clouse, now 42, is alive and well, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's office said in a statement Wednesday.

Clouse was about a year old when her parents' bodies were found in January 1981, according to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. They weren't identified until 2021, when a forensic genetic genealogy firm said they were Harold Dean Clouse Jr. and Tina Gail Linn Clouse, originally of Florida, according to Paxton's office.

Their deaths are still under investigation, Paxton's office said. Their families had last heard from the couple in 1980.
