It was on the morning of June 4, when a man named Shane Chartres-Abbott walked out of his Melbourne home with his girlfriend Kathleen Price and her father Jerry.
As they made it to the front fence, Jerry felt a blow to the back of his head and fell to the ground while Kathleen was forced to her knees. Kathleen heard Shane utter a quiet "Oh my god", saw the flash of a handgun and heard two shots. Shane had been executed by two bullets, one in his throat another in his arm, and was lying on the ground drowning in his own blood, dead before he hit the ground, the coroner said.
The two men who had done it were sprinting away from the scene and to this day, still haven't been found, reports news. Because, while you might not know the name Shane Chartres-Abbott, you've definitely heard of "the vampire gigolo", the man accused of raping and torturing a prostitute in In August, , a year-old Shane was working as a male prostitute, specialising in sex involving bondage, discipline, dominance and submission and masochism - better known as BDSM.
On August 17 of that year, Shane met up with another prostitute, a Thai woman given the pseudonym Penny for legal reasons, to have sex in a Melbourne hotel. The podcast tells of how the night went - with everyone having a different tale to tell - but the fact of the matter was that when a worker entered room of Hotel Saville the morning after, Penny had been the victim of a heinous crime.
She had been viciously raped, brutally assaulted and, the most harrowing part, her tongue had been nearly ripped from her mouth. It didn't take police long to arrest Shane - he of course had been the only one to have spent the night with Penny - and swiftly charged him with numerous counts of assault and rape. Everyone's minds were made up, Shane was an easy target and of course there was the "vampire" persona he assumed for his work. The night of the assault, Penny claimed he had told her he was "a year-old vampire that needed blood to survive".
