to murder.
Philip Haynes Markoff (February 12, 1986 August 15, 2010)[1] was an American medical student who was charged with the armed robbery and murder of Julissa Brisman in a Boston hotel on April 14, 2009, and two other armed robberies.[2][3] Markoff maintained his innocence of all charges and pleaded not guilty at his arraignment. A grand jury indicted Markoff for first-degree murder, armed robbery, and other charges.[4][5]
On August 15, 2010, Markoff committed suicide in Boston's Nashua Street Jail, where he was awaiting trial.[6][1] The media have referred to this murder and other murders as "Craigslist killings" because the killer was alleged to have met his victims through ads placed on Craigslist, two of which were offering erotic services.[7][8][9]

There are many sick scumbags among them
That was a horrific crime spree. I remember his fiance being so supportive, and then reality crashed down on her.
His suicide was very well thought out and most gruesome.

(60,010 posts)women were all terrified during his spree in the state.
By sheer co-incidence, I ended up working in Lake City Fla. ( where he had killed a 12 y/o girl) ...
while he was serving time in the Fla. State prison nearby, and when he was electrocuted Jan. 1989.
Kind of a creepy co-incidence.

(60,010 posts)but, lucky in that he had a specific type of woman he targeted, and I was nowhere near that type.
well, he had a type until he hit a very intense stage of killing, then that poor lil girl in Lake City was a victim.
Still, an amazing co-incidence.

But Ted Bundy was definitely an active and visible member of the Republican Party.
