Police, court records: Woman found dead in North Loop home complained of many assaults by boyfriend

The woman found dead in her North Loop apartment under what police are calling suspicious circumstances had made multiple calls to Minneapolis police over the past 18 months in which she said she was the victim of assaults by her boyfriend.

Police records obtained this week by the Star Tribune show that Allison J. Lussier complained to officers at least six times in the past 18 months that she was the target of sometimes especially violent domestic assaults before she was discovered Feb. 22 in her unit in the Cameron Historic Flats in the 700 block of N. 4th Street.

When asked Tuesday about progress in the case toward making an arrest, police spokesman Aaron Rose said, "This is an open and active suspicious death investigation. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner has not yet announced the determination of cause and manner of death. A toxicology report is currently pending."
