As the murder in Camps Bay continues to grab international headlines, more sordid and scandalous details coming to light almost daily, the folks over at Daily Mail have written a rather extensive article covering everything we know about exactly what went down and who was involved.

Of course the basics we have known since last Wednesday, 39-year-old Gabriele Kabrins Alban found murdered in her Camps Bay Retreat hotel room. Here’s the 10 things you should know about Diego Dougherty, the man arrested for her murder:

1. He is a known playboy.
2. He is in Pollsmoor prison hospital for ‘emotional reasons’ following two fainting spells.
3. His family is one of the most powerful families in Central America worth billions.
4. His family has connections at Real Madrid FC.
5. Diego is the ‘black sheep’ of the family.
6. Diego has never had a job.
7. Sources close to the family say that half a kilo of cocaine would more than likely be for personal use, so hectic was his habit.
8. Diego is banned from the US due to run-ins with the law including drink driving offences.
9. He first met the deceased when she was younger and they reconnected through social media.

10, we promised you 10. OK, he was arrested after he was seen wandering on a a nearby beach (probably Camps Bay beach).

It looks like the wealthy playboy has some serious questions to answer, and when your murder case involves messages scrawled in excrement you can bet the buzz won’t die down before every last detail has been wrung dry.
