Hot Google Topic - It seems there won't be a Mrs. Craigslist Killer...I mean Philip Markoff's wedding was called off

You've heard of the Craigslist killer. You have heard the story and seen the news, read the articles but there will be no happy ending for the accused....his wedding is off. WAAAAH....the news these days....who writes about this stuff...other than me writing my opinion....here are the not so gory details.


The wedding of accused "Craigslist killer" Phillip Markoff and what would have been Mrs. Craigslist killer, Megan McAllister, has been called off.

Megan McAllister, who was accompanied by her mother, met Phillip Markoff for about 25 minutes in a Boston jail earlier this week, her lawyer Robert Honecker told CNN affiliate WCVB.

"There is still a love and commitment to that person, and I think that obviously realizing what has now happened, that she has to take steps to do what she has to do on her life," Honecker told WCVB. She plans to move on, he said.

Thank God she (Megan McAllister) is ready to move on, it is probably a safer decision. Ya think.

McAllister maintained her fiance's innocence in an e-mail sent to ABC News in early April. In the e-mail, McAllister said police have the wrong man and Markoff "was set up."

Markoff, 23, a second-year student at Boston University's School of Medicine, is charged with killing Julissa Brisman on April 14 at a Boston hotel. Police said Brisman, a model from New York, advertised as a masseuse on Craigslist.

Prosecutors say she, Brisman was shot three times at close range and suffered blunt head trauma. Markoff is also charged in connection with an April 10 robbery of Trisha Leffler, 29, at another hotel in Boston. Leffler also met Brisman via Craigslist.

Leffler was robbed of $800 in cash and $250 in American Express gift cards, according to police reports.

Markoff has pleaded not guilty and is being held without bail.

He pleads not guilty yet has attempted suicide twice and is now under suicide watch. Innocent people don't try to kill themselves when accused of crimes they didn't commit.
