Fiance of the 'Craigslist Killer' Cancels Wedding

We have all been wondering what the mysterious fiance of the accused "Craigslist Killer" Philip Markoff has been doing during this messy investigation, well we finally got news!

The lawyer for Megan McAllister told ABC's "Good Morning America" Thursday that his client's planned August wedding to 23-year-old Markoff "will not occur" and is not likely to happen at any time in the future.

McAllister, accompanied by her mother and Honecker, met with Markoff in jail for about 25 minutes on Wednesday. She did not appear to be wearing an engagement
ring and wouldn't talk to the media.

Markoff is in jail for allegedly using Craigslist to lure women selling erotic services to hotel rooms, then robbing them at gunpoint to feed a gambling habit. He is charged with killing one of the women, 25-year-old New York City masseuse Julissa Brisman, on April 14 when she fought back. He is also accused of robbing another masseuse four days earlier at a different hotel in Boston. Lastly, the third attack he was suspected in occured in Rhode Island on a Las Vegas stripper, who was tied up in a hotel room by a man she met on Craigslist but got away when her husband came in.

The longer Markoff is in jail the more evidence from the investigation keeps getting stacked against him. The fingerprints and security videos lead investigators to believe he is responsible for all 3 attacks, although he continues to plead 'not guilty.'

"What has been portrayed and leaked to the media is not the Philip Markoff that I know. To me and my family, he is a loving and caring person," McAllister said a week ago in a press release statement.

She also asked this week that her fiancé's fate not be determined by the press and public opinion.

Poor Megan... we really do sympathize with her. She seems like a bright girl however, many of us know that when you are in love nothing makes sense anymore. I am sure Lacey Peterson thought the same thing as her "loving and loyal" husband killed her and their unborn child on his boat.

Get out while you can, Megan... Think of his jail time as your freedom!
