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.

>A beautiful place to run and an easy place to seize a small woman.

The road isn't as remote as it looks. There's always a fair bit of traffic on it during the day.

The murderer had to have snatched her quickly and then disappear into the woods, which is very easy to do in our area.

Joggers: buy a couple of doggies for jogging in the great outdoor woods: a German Shepherd and a Doberman. The rapist wouldn’t get far.

My question is, was she another murder like Seth Rich?

The right 120 pound dog is a formidable adversary when defending it’s owner.

It only takes seconds to snatch a woman who probably weighed 115 pounds or less who is running down the road.

For years I was a 6-7 day a week obsessive runner. Up at 4:45 AM and out the door for a 2+ mile run. Fortunately, I had the benefit of a career Navy father who taught me self-defence and situational awareness from the time I was 8.

"...My question is, was she another murder like Seth Rich..."


My wild guess as a 27 y.o. person who worked for a technology company in the private sector...it is likely unrelated to Arkancide victims.

The first official murder the US probably happened sometime in July of 1776. Life had always been cheap.

Damn, run with a gun.

She's a New Yorker running in Massachusetts. Not a chance she'd have a gun. Guns are only for the body guards employed by our elite.

Is that right?

How come me missus is about to buy one?

Stop spreading lies about Massachusetts.

Yes, there are way too many numbnuts in this state, but there are many of us (living here) who are fighting the left tooth and nail to the best of our ability.

Serial killers never went away, and they have been around for a long, long time. I have always been fascinated by what causes a person to take so much pleasure in murder. I don’t understand it, but I don’t think that making excuses for them because of their upbringing is good enough. It’s something else.

Karina is a recent case which came to mind.
There was a similar case in San Diego some years ago.

My gut feeling says this is too heinous to be a random attack.

You’re right there. My daughter has a 150+ pound bull mastiff, he is such a sweetheart I wonder what he would do to protect. He does protect small kittens, lol. Maybe just the sight of him would scare bad guys off.
I had an Irish setter that surprised me one time though.
