Davids family: a son and brother, and I have lost everything: my husband and my best friend. In one day, I lost the most important person in my life and the man I loved so much. And I have no answers, she said. Messerschmitt, a 30-year-old D.C. attorney, was found partially clothed and stabbed in the back at the upscale boutique hotel.

Vuong was not aware her husband was at The Donovan when he sent the text message and she couldnt provide other details of his plans for that day, Detective White said.

His laptop was seized and investigators had trawled his social media accounts for clues. The lawyer was found dead at The Donovan, pictured, five blocks from the White House and around three miles from the apartment he shared with his wife. It was not yet clear why he was even at the hotel . Messerschmitt, whose family lives in Cincinnati, graduated from Ohio State University in 2006 and from the Boston University Law School in 2009. After leaving college, he interned with Susan Dlott, a judge for the U.S. District Court Southern District of Ohio in Cincinnati. In April 2014, he joined DLA Piper in Washington, D.C., where he worked as an associate. His biography for the firm described him as an intellectual-property attorney who negotiated commercial and technology agreements.
