I’ll assume you have read the book American Psycho by Brett Easton Ellis. It’s not an easy read. I basically had to stop reading after every chapter and watch an episode of Friends.
Which is why this is terrifying – a man in Hong Kong has been found with two dead women in his apartment. The 29-year-old Merrill Lynch equity trader, originally from England, called police, admitting to the murders.
Whilst one woman had been killed on the evening that Rurik Jutting called police, the other body was found inside a suitcase on his 31st-floor balcony. Neighbours had complained about strange smells coming from the apartment.
When compared to Patrick Bateman, Rurik is not far off.
He dined with a string of beautiful women in exclusive restaurants across the globe, according to those who know him.
He enjoyed skiing holidays in Courchevel, the Alpine playground for the elite, and when in London he relaxed at a private members’ club in Shoreditch.
The son of an engineer father and a nursery teacher mother, Jutting was described by one colleague in Hong Kong as someone who ‘talked very loud and made loads of money’.
Thankfully there were no broken bottles and rodents involved. There were, however, sex toys and cocaine.
