By

(CBS)  CBS News has learned the Rhode Island Attorney General's office will announce more charges and begin extradition proceedings early this week for Philip Markoff, the 23-year-old medical student alleged to have committed a string of crimes against women after meeting them through the online classified site, Craigslist.

Markoff is expected to be charged with the robbery of a stripper who was held at gunpoint in a Warwick, Rhode Island motel room. Police have reported that fingerprints in the hotel room matched Markoff's, reportsCBS News' Fred Balboni.

Markoff is currently being held in a Boston jail, charged with the April 14 murder of 25-year-old Julissa Brisman, an erotic masseuse beaten and shot to death in a Boston hotel room, as well as the robbery of another masseuse he met four days earlier in a different hotel.

Not sure she is a gold digger as she was further along in her pursuit of MD. He's a psychopath. Probably was able to fool everyone for a long time. I feel bad for her.

I believe I heard his fiance' is a medical student as well. If so, she will make here own money as a lot of other women do.

Can we blame this on his girlfriend for not paying enough attention to him? She is still in disbelief and blames herself. Could there we something there?

She wanted to be rich and and to view herself as important. Her way of doing this was to marry a med student, and in my opinion. buy herself a medical degree. That sure sounds like gold digging to me..

Ceres6-- If that's what you got out of the woman's story -- just a harmless attempt to kiss her....then you are one scary dude! He pinned her to the wall and would not stop when she resisted! Clearly a predator. if you think that's OK behavior, then you are as sick as he is!
