“The family of Julissa Brisman is shocked and dismayed by the news of Phillip Markoff’s suicide,” according to a statement released by Djuna Perkins, the family’s Boston-based lawyer. “Their grief for Julissa is as fresh today as the day over a year ago when Markoff took Julissa away from them. The long-awaited criminal prosecution was their only opportunity to confront him, and now he has taken that away as well.”
However, the family of Markoff’s former fianceé sadened they were saddened. Really? Your almost murderous son-in-law kills an innocent girl and takes his life and you are saddened by his suicide? Good riddance to bad rubbish!
“We are saddened by it,” said Jim McAllister, father of Markoff’s former fianceé, Megan, who is in medical school in the Caribbean. “We’re trying to get our heads on straight.”
