A 27-Year-Old Woman Was Killed After Going on a Jog Near Her Mother's House
Marcotte
lived in New York City and was visiting family in Princeton when she
decided to go on a run; she was last seen at 1 p.m. Sunday. According to
Fox 25 Boston,
her body was found that night, a half mile from her mother’s house, and
she had burns on her head and feet. Police say they are considering
this a homicide investigation, and they aren’t sure if the attack is
random; they estimate she was killed between 1 and 4 p.m. and are
determining whether she was sexually assaulted.
“We are concerned about the safety of our town residents and the visitors,” Princeton Police Chief Michele Powers said in a press conference.
“Pay attention to your surroundings.” There is no information about
suspects at this point. If you have any information, police urge you to
contact them at (508) 453-7589.
Marcotte graduated from Boston University
in 2011 with honors and studied communications. She was working at
Google as an account manager at the time of her death. “Vanessa Marcotte
was a much loved member of the Google team, working in our New York
office for the last year and a half, and known for her ubiquitous smile,
passion for volunteer work, and love of Boston sports,” a Google
spokesperson said in a statement. “We are deeply shocked and saddened,
and our thoughts are with her family and friends.”
“I am just in complete disbelief,” Larry Kim, her former employer at the marketing firm WordStream, told the Boston Globe. “She was a wonderful young woman and very ambitious and had a brilliant career cut short.”
