Philip Markoff , who's known as the “Craigslist killer” is a thrilling case that’s from the internet. Markoff supposedly attacked a woman he found on an advertisement for erotic services. Markoff has supports from Boston Med. School saying on Facebook that he is innocent until proven guilty . It goes out to the public who believes he’s a killer. His attorney says that his client will plead not guilty. He is charged with murdering Julissa Brisman, 26, an aspiring model. She’s from New York, and offers massages on Craigslist. He’s also charged with robbing and kidnapping other women who also advertised on the website. Rhode Island police are also charging him with the attempted robbery there as well. Authorities put Markoff, 23, on suicide watch after finding shoelace marks around his neck.
My analysis on the article is that this is very newsworthy. This is a very important notice for all web lovers. This is a heads up for everyone who’s a Craigslist fan; you have to be careful with your ads and all the buyers. Situations like these are extremely risky for a lot of people. In this matter, it can even lead to murder. This goes out to everyone who is addicted to sites like this, you should be aware of these causes. You shouldn’t put yourself at risk.
