As always, thank you for hanging out and remembering Christian Andreacchio with me today.

On a February afternoon in 2014, 21‑year‑old tugboat worker Christian Andreacchio was found slumped over the bathtub in his small Meridian, Mississippi apartment, a single gunshot wound to the head and a pistol resting on the wrong side of his body. His death was ruled a suicide in under an hour, the scene quickly processed and the file all but closed.

But when Christian’s family walked into that apartment, what they saw didn’t match the story they were being told: blood spatter that seemed too contained, a body that looked like it had been moved, a timeline that made no sense, and a promising young man who had been making plans for his future. Over the years, new experts, podcasts, and TV investigations would pore over gunshot residue tests, shifting witness accounts, and missing evidence, turning a quiet Mississippi case file into one of the most fiercely debated “suicide or murder?” mysteries in modern true crime.
