… Their grief for Julissa is as fresh today as the day over a year ago when Markoff took Julissa away from them,” said the statement issued by a representative for the family. “The long-awaited criminal prosecution was their only opportunity to confront him, and now he has taken that away as well.”
The family promised to pursue “other avenues to seek justice for Julissa and help ensure that others do not suffer from such devastating, unnecessary violence,” according to the statement.
Markoff was also charged with robbing at gunpoint Trisha Leffler at a Westin Hotel in Boston on April 10, 2009. Leffler, of Las Vegas, was robbed of $800 in cash and $250 in American Express gift cards and was held at gunpoint and bound.
He was also facing charges for the attempted armed robbery of a stripper at a Holiday Inn Express in Warwick, Rhode Island on April 16, 2009.
