Cavegirl I question how he went about this interesting suicide.

I hope they will publish the autopsy report on what the cause of death was.

Lets see, he either died from hanging himself, cutting his arteries or suffercation from the plastic bag.

Why go to all that trouble when just cutting the major artery in his leg of in his neck would have done the job.


Curiouser and strange.  What came first, the cutting of his body then the plastic bag then the hanging.?


I have a jaundiced eye when I hear of suicide that elaborate.

"Craigslist Killer" Left Eerie Message In Blood

(WBZ-TV)   Two words scrawled in his own blood. That was the final message left by Philip Markoff, the accused "Craigslist Killer," when he apparently took his own life last weekend.

The Boston Globe reports that the words "Megan" and "pocket" were written in blood on the wall of Markoff's cell at the Nashua Street Jail. That's where he was awaiting his March 2011 trial for allegedly killing a woman inside the Copley Marriott last April.

Markoff was discovered dead, alone in his cell, on Sunday morning.

Boston City Councilor Stephen Murphy called Monday for an independent investigation of jailhouse procedures.

Murphy said Philip Markoff should not have been able to kill himself while in custo
