A popular bike path became the scene of a gruesome murder late Thursday when a life insurance executive was killed while running near her Connecticut home.

Melissa Millan, 54, a triathlete and mother of two, was found stabbed at about 8 p.m. in the Hartford suburb of Simsbury, Conn.

Police have stepped up patrols of the bike path and scoured the area on Saturday, but no suspect has been named and the murder weapon has not been recovered, WFSB reported.

Millan, a senior vice president who had been with MassMutual Financial Group since 2001, was transported to an area hospital, where she died. The medical examiner said Millan was stabbed in the chest.

Seems like their restrictive gun laws are having roughly the effect you would expect.

No one who is not white and upper-middle-class to be found within 20 miles of the spot.

I’m assuming she lived in a top 1-2% community. Was it a robbery? Or is she just start of Ferguson, MO collateral damage?

She was in CT. The insurance company is Mass Mutual, from Springfield MA. She was a Sr VP.

Evidently stabbed in the chest last night. The area was pretty well known, public, and in a very safe town.

A prominent banker was found dead in the tub of his posh downtown apartment with his throat slashed — in what detectives suspect is a suicide, police sources said on Wednesday.

As mentioned, that is not the case. There is absolutely no public transportation in Simsbury, and the nearest ghetto area is 30 miles away in Hartford.

The parking lot across from where she was found would have been packed with Mercedes, Audis, and Porsches on Sunday night.

Back on January 26, a 58-year-old former senior executive at German investment bank behemoth Deutsche Bank, William Broeksmit, was found dead after hanging himself at his London home, and with that, set off an unprecedented series of banker suicides throughout the year which included former Fed officials and numerous JPMorgan traders.

.. the banker suicides returned with .. the hedge fund partner of infamous former IMF head Dominique Strauss-Khan, Thierry Leyne, a French-Israeli entrepreneur, was found dead after jumping off the 23rd floor of one of the Yoo towers, a prestigious residential complex in Tel Aviv.

Just a few brief hours later the WSJ reported that yet another Deutsche Bank veteran has committed suicide, and not just anyone but the bank’s associate general counsel, 41 year old Calogero “Charlie” Gambino, who was found on the morning of Oct. 20, having also hung himself by the neck from a stairway banister, which according to the New York Police Department was the cause of death. We assume that any relationship to the famous Italian family carrying that last name is purely accidental.

In fact, the town is widely known as, “Sims-Boring” as in, it is a sleepy little bedroom community where NOTHING happens.

This is a big deal in that town.

You see many more blacks and hispanics on TV than you ever would on the streets of Simsbury.

I wouldn't think a jogger would have much worth robbing and these types of communities don't usually let the ferals roam about freely. Senseless and savage murder does point to the bigoted underclass but I know in situations like this the cops always take a good look at husbands, lovers, business partners, etc.

WOW. I worked for/with MassMutual for 31 years, was back to Springfield many, many times.

I hope they find who did this.

Yes it does read like “Connecticut Life” employee but the poor gal was a Mass Mutual person living in Ct as many do.
Looks like Springfield may have been safer than quite little Simsbury

The are patrolling the path more?

Why?

She was killed by someone she knew.

These triathlete types kick some serious butt and no way she couldn’t outrun most men.
