Philip Markoff

[4][5] On August 15, 2010, Markoff died by suicide in Boston's Nashua Street Jail, where he was awaiting trial.

He had an older brother, Jonathan Markoff, and a half-sister (whose father was Susan's second husband, Gary Carroll, a banker).

[15] Markoff met Megan McAllister, a native of New Jersey, in 2005, while they were both volunteers at the Albany Medical Center emergency room.

[22] On April 21, he was arraigned in Brisman's death; the prosecutor stated that a semi-automatic handgun, wrist restraints, and duct tape had been found in Markoff's apartment.

[2] On May 4, Rhode Island officials issued a warrant for Markoff's arrest in the April 16 incident, though the state's Attorney General said that their prosecution would not go forward until the Boston charges were resolved.

[1] He had used a knife, made from a pen and a piece of metal, to cut arteries in his ankles, legs, and neck.
