Woman's murder linked to Craigslist

BOSTON (AP) - Boston police have released the identity of a masseuse shot at a luxury city hotel.

Police say 26-year-old Julissa Brisman of New York City was shot multiple times in the torso late Tuesday night on the 20th floor of the Marriott Copley Place and died at Boston Medical Center.

Commissioner Edward Davis says Brisman advertised masseuse services on Craigslist, and investigators believe she was the victim of an attempted robbery.

There have been no arrests, but police are seeking the public's help in identifying a man seen on surveillance video walking through the hotel's lobby and described as a "person of interest" in the case.

The same man was seen at the nearby Westin Hotel a few days earlier on the day a masseuse who also advertised on Craigslist was robbed.
