A Google employee from New York City who disappeared on an afternoon jog while visiting her mother in Massachusetts has been found murdered in the woods.

Worcester District Attorney Joseph Early Jr. said Monday that 27-year-old Vanessa Marcotte was reported missing after failing to return from a run between 1pm and 4pm in Princeton.

Her body was discovered at around 8.20pm Sunday by a state police K9 unit near Brooks Station Road, about a half-mile from her mother's home.

A source told Fox25 in Boston that investigators were examining the possibility that Marcotte was sexually assaulted and set on fire, with burns to her hands, head and feet.

It’s not a mindset adopted by most in that age bracket.
My daughter does similar running stuff and thinks I’m crazy for telling her to have a gun.
At least she has a 120 pound dog with her most of the time.

My granddaughter is a runner-—and in some fairly isolated areas.

I just put her in God’s hands.

She might be alive had she had a gun.

No.

I live fairly close to Princeton.

There's been decades of habla espanols that have infiltrated the area to the north and south of Princeton, but the town is sparsely populated when compared to surrounding towns/cities.

My guess is someone did a roadtrip to find a victim.

Today’s young libs are not realistic enough to know what kind of evil bastards are lurking out there. I never go anywhere without my gun. Hell, it’s in my pocket when I’m mowing the lawn.

Princeton is a lovely town. I can imagine that this poor girl felt perfectly safe there.

How tragic.

The town is 96% white.

This could be another Chandra Levy (in terms of the crime), which I think is still not solved.

How horrible. Major condolences to the family. How or why this could happen is beyond belief. I grew up in this area and can report that Princeton is a lovely, picture post card, small town. I know that a lot of New England towns are being heavily impacted by drugs. It is no wonder that polls report that our nation is not moving in the right direction. Shame on all of us citizens for letting this happen.

She was from NYC so if she was not one of Bloomberg’s private militia, the NY Governor’s private guard, etc. she would not be able to possess a gun and probably any type of effective pepper spray. Probably the best she could do legally was to run with a gang of 5 - 6 others and carry big sticks.

A bit similar to Karina Vetrano who was killed in NY;

Similarities, both went out jogging. Both beaten badly.

It probably isn’t the same perpetrator, the perp would have to travel, this happened in Massachusetts but something to bear in mind.

This was “Liberal-on-Liberal” crime, not to be highlighted or talked about in polite circles.

It’s not unusual for serial killers to cruise around, looking for a vulnerable victim.

Why do we have to go to British newspapers for this kind of news?

“...it would appear to be a homicide.”

Well, yes.

Doesn’t fit the MO of terrorists. Looks more like a serial killer or racially-motivated hate crime. Either way, horrible news and I pray for her family.

>She was from NYC

She was born and raised not far from where she was murdered.

Her job took her to NYC.
