‘Craigslist killing’ suspect dead, likely suicide
BOSTON —
A former medical student accused of killing a masseuse he met through Craigslist apparently killed himself inside a Boston jail, where he was awaiting trial, authorities said Sunday.
Philip Markoff’s body was found Sunday morning in the Nashua Street Jail after an apparent suicide, said Ed Geary, a spokesman for the Suffolk County sheriff’s office. Geary said no additional information was immediately available, and an investigation had begun.
Saturday would have been Markoff’s first wedding anniversary, but his nuptials were canceled after his arrest.
