Accused Craigslist Killer Left Message

Philip Markoff, the accused Craigslist killer, apparently wrote his ex-fiancee’s name in what appeared to be blood on the wall of his jail cell before taking his own life.

Markoff was charged last year with the murder and attempted robbery of Julissa Brisman at the Copley Marriott Hotel in Boston.

From CNN:

Markoff was found dead in his jail cell in Boston on Sunday morning, Suffolk County District Attorney Daniel Conley said. The evidence collected so far indicates the onetime medical student killed himself by cutting himself multiple times with a makeshift scalpel crafted from a pen and a piece of metal, Conley told reporters.

The words “Megan” and “pocket” were scrawled on the wall when he was found, Conley said. Megan appears to refer to Markoff’s former fiancee, Megan McAllister, but investigators had not divined the meaning of “pocket,” the prosecutor said.

“We’re still studying that,” he said.
