Spitzer Madam Claims Craigslist Murder Victim Was A Staffer

2009_04_brismanhl.jpg Kristin Davis sure seems to be a sneeze away from the headlines these days. The high profile madam (and soon to be published author) most famous for her connection to Eliot Spitzer tells the Daily News that at one time she employed Julissa Brisman, the 26-year-old masseuse murdered in a Boston hotel room earlier this week by a client who found her on Craigslist. Davis says, "She was a good kid, but kind of a nightmare. She had a bad drinking problem." Davis says that Brisman, who friends say was a recovering alcoholic with aspirations to become an AA counselor, used the name "Stacey" and did not offer sex for money, only sensual body rubs. As for the investigation into Brisman's murder, police now say they see "a strong connection" between the incident, a similar holdup in Rhode Island and a third robbery last week in Boston, also by a Craigslist erotic massage patron. All three crimes used zip-tie plastic restraints, which cops are currently trying to link and track the origins of.
