2 min read
Brandt Osborn, 42, and David Pearce, 37, and Michael Ansbach, 47, have reportedly been arrested in connection with the deaths of Christy Giles, a model, and Hilda Marcela Cabrales, her friend.
Pearce has been charged with manslaughter as said by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. While Ansbach and Brandt Osborn are charged with accessory to manslaughter.
“It is believed that both women were given drugs and overdosed,” the LAPD said. “As a result of our investigation, we are concerned that one or more of these men may have drugged other members of our community.“
Alexandra Creteau and David Murrietta Jr, both 35, said they were informed about partying with women and dumping the bodies by Brandt Osborn during a shoot in November.
Murrietta recounted the actor telling her, “I have had the craziest weekend ever.” After leaving his apartment for a Covid test, Brandt Osborn returned home. And learned it had been Giles who had died. According to Murrietta he not only checked her pulse but freaked out. He decided not to call 911, and then they decided what to do with her body.
They didn’t know what to do, wanted to avoid getting in trouble. So they decided to drive and drop her body off at Culver City hospital.
They dropped off the first girl, then returned to our apartment. He checked the pulse of the second girl, which was very faint. So they tried to decide what to do with her. “Got her in the car and decided to drop her off at a second hospital so they don’t get caught.”
Reports state that masked men dropped off the victims at a hospital in Culver City on 13 November before fleeing in a black Toyota Prius without plates.
