The Culture Died With Gatien

"A dispute over drug-money turned violent, leading Riggs to strike Melendez unconscious with a hammer to the head, then Alig suffocated him with a sweatshirt until he died. The pair stashed the mutilated corpse in the bathtub and covered it with ice, and hit it with a few spritzes of Calvin Klein Eternity, then continued to party for the next eight or nine days – even inviting friends over to the apartment while Melendez’ body rotted in the other room."

“I wasn’t totally naïve about the risk—just naïve enough, and just bold enough, to go through with it.”
-Peter Gatien
