I've always wondered how Philip Markoff's parents coped with learning the truth about their handsome medical student son. It couldn't have been easy.
What's even worse is imaging how this ruined Craigslist for so many people who just want to bang strange chicks left and right or make a bit of extra money here and there.

No. Craigslist had a bad reputation long before Markoff, and he's not the only crazy person to murder someone he met on that site.
I guess I am of the minority. I would have liked to see this creep scum bag do a lot of years in prison. He deserved a very long sentence for what he did. He took the easy way out. Yeah, he is a coward. Suffering in prison is what I would think his victims families would have rather have done. This pri ck took the easy way out and the families of his victims will get very little justice this way. A control freak like him, and most of them are control freaks, just had to have the last say in what would happen to him. Now if he had gotten the death penalty and fought it, those families would have had a bit more satisfaction.
I read somewhere that Markoff was suicidal back in high school? I can't remember now. He had multiple issues going on to say the least.
This guy was a scumbag with no regard for others. It is a shame a woman got involved with him . While he was a life wasted no one will miss him. Thankfully he won't become some prison heartthrob or other revolting persona. ( I find it disgusting the women that fall fro the likes of these scumbags.)
One wonders what we don't teach our girls that they would infatuate on famous killers. Might also answer why they will give their bodies to rock stars and such.
Hybristophilia
In popular culture, this phenomenon is also known as "Bonnie and Clyde Syndrome".[2]
Many high-profile criminals, particularly those who have committed atrocious crimes, receive "fan mail" in prison that is sometimes amorous or sexual, presumably as a result of this phenomenon. In some cases, admirers of these criminals have gone on to marry the object of their affections in prison.[3][4]
