New York Massage Parlors: ‘Craigslist’ killer leaves behind message in blood.
… Craigslist” killer Philip Markoff left behind a message in blood when he killed himself on August 15th in his Boston jail cell.
Markoff, who had been held since last year on suspicion of murdering New York City masseuse Julissa Brisman, wrote his former fiance’s name in blood on the wall of his cell before dying of self-inflicted wounds.
Markoff, a former medical student originally from upstate New York, was once engaged to fellow medical student Megan McAllister. The engagement ended after Markoff’s arrest in 2009. The wedding had been scheduled for August 14, 2009.
Markoff was dubbed the Craigslist killer by the media, because he used the website to target women who advertised under the Erotic Services section of the site. He had contacted Brisman regarding an ad for an erotic massage. Brisman then traveled to the Boston area to meet Markoff, who apparently shot her in a Boston hotel.
