Summary
What happened, as the record shows.
Christian Andreacchio, 21, was found dead in his apartment bathtub in Meridian, Mississippi, on February 26, 2014, with a gunshot wound to the head. Meridian police ruled it suicide, but his family and a hired forensic pathologist dispute the ruling, pointing to a staged scene and no fingerprints on the weapon. A 2017 Lauderdale County grand jury returned no indictment. No charges were ever filed, and the people present remain innocent unless proven otherwise. The Culpable investigative podcast launched in 2019 and offered a $100,000 reward.
