Megan McAllister’s is standing by her man Phillip Markoff, the man being charged as the “Craigslist Killer.”

“To me and my family, he is a loving and caring person and in the eyes of the law and the constitution, he is innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt,” she said in a statement Monday. “I just can only hope that the criminal justice system will not be overwhelmed and persuaded by what is being put forth in the media.”

The statement was read by family attorney Robert A. Honecker Jr. outside the McAllister home in Little Silver, N.J. Markoff, 23, has been charged with the murder of a woman and the assault of another, both in Boston hotels. In a new twist, there’s an allegation he used Craigslist to seek out men as well as women for sexual activities.

Police had been searching for more women who may have been victimized by the “Craigslist Killer,” but now they are expanding the search to men as well. In an interview with NBC News yesterday, a Boston professional who did not want to be identified said that Markoff contacted him through the site. “I posted an ad on Craigslist under ‘male for t,’ which stands for ‘males for transsexuals,’ ” the man said. “That’s where he found me.” He says Markoff replied by writing, “I am a 22 y/o grad student. 6’3, 205, good build, blond/blue eyes … let me know what else you want to see or know about me.” The emails started last spring and continued through late January, but they never met. He claims Markoff called him “babe” and said in another email, “What are you into and what are your stats? What are you doing tonight?” The man says Markoff used the Yahoo! address “sexaddict5385″ and send explicit pictures, which is how the man recognized Markoff. According to the man, Markoff’s ad in Craigslist’s “casual encounters” section said he wanted to meet, “men who dress as women, with transsexuals – anyone who he can get ahold of online.” The man added, “This person was trolling Craigslist like a Monopoly game. I don’t know who knows who else he contacted through there.”

Open your eyes Megan this man is GUILTY!
