A 36-year-old Everett man was left for dead in his home for three days until police found him with two gunshots to his head last month.

Now a professional escort is in jail on $1 million bail after being captured on the man's home surveillance footage the night he was shot.

Marissa Wallen, 21, arrested Tuesday, is being investigated for first-degree assault, first-degree identity theft and first-degree robbery. Everett police say she spent more than $10,000 with the victim's credit cards in Skagit County.

The victim's employer called police the morning of Oct. 24, concerned that the victim had uncharacteristically not logged on for work that day, according to Everett police. His mother also called 911 with concerns.

Officers found no signs of forced entry at his home and no one answered the front door. An officer checked the inside of the house and found the man sitting up against a wall in the master bedroom with dried blood on his head. He was awake, but unresponsive to questions, according to the incident report.

Medics took him to Providence Medical Center in Everett, where a CT scan revealed he had two bullets inside of his head.

Cops served a search warrant on the man's house and found two shell casings in the bedroom. They also determined his wallet and handgun were missing. The shell casings did not match the caliber of the victim's missing gun.

A search of the man's surveillance system showed that the same woman, later identified as Wallen, visited his home five times between Oct. 7 and Oct. 21. The footage last shows them together entering the house about 8:45 p.m. Oct. 21 and heading upstairs about 9:30 p.m. Neither is seen on the interior surveillance footage again.

At nearly 10 p.m., the doorbell camera images show the woman running out the front door.

Investigators checked the victim's credit union accounts and found that early the morning of Oct. 22, eight payments were made totaling $1,800 to another man through Facebook's money exchange system. A peek into the victim's three credit cards showed that someone made 82 charges totaling more than $10,000 between Oct. 22 and Nov. 5, according to Everett police.

The charges were made at various stores in Mount Vernon and Burlington, in addition to online stores.

A loss prevention officer at the Burlington Macy's store said that she prevented the 21-year-old woman and her companion -- the man to whom she allegedly made payments after the shooting -- from using the victim's cards.

Police believe the last legitimate use of the victim's credit card occurred at a McDonald's in Everett, where the victim had taken the woman the night he was shot.

Police found the woman and her associate at a home in Mount Vernon.

Wallen allegedly changed her story a few times during her interview with police until she admitted that the victim hired her, but she "did not feel like having sex with him." She reportedly claimed that "he was performing oral sex wrong and she did not know how to tell him that," according to Everett police.

She allegedly claimed she shot the man in the back of the head at first, and then fired a second shot that hit the side of his face, the incident report indicates.

Wallen told police she took the man's wallet from his night stand and took off, believing he was dead on his bedroom floor.

Everett police reported Wallen was "emotionless," during her interview and also asked that if the victim were to make a recovery, that police talk to him and ask that he does not pursue charges.
