MADISON, Wis. — Madison police have released more information about the slayings of 31-year-old Joel Marino and UW student Brittany Zimmerman.
Police said Marino and Zimmerman’s deaths do not appear to be connected.
However, in a statement released on Sunday, police said they cannot totally rule out any connection, mainly because of certain similarities.
Those similarities include that the victims were killed inside their homes, were in close proximity to each other and there was nothing in either case to suggest the victims had enemies or were at risk due to their lifestyles.
