NOT The Best of Gay Chicago ... DJ and Porn Star Arrested on Murder Charges

A club DJ who played gigs on North Halsted’s gay bar strip as recently as last fall was arrested last week  in Tennessee for the brutal slaying of a tattoo shop owner in Florida in May.

Jason Andrews, 27, was known as DJ Veritas when he did gigs at Chicago clubs such as Circuit  and Scarlet, where he was the regular Saturday night DJ for a while. He was also known as Addison when he starred in gay porn videos for Sean Cody.

Both he and girlfriend Amanda Logue, 28, are accused of brutally killing New Port Richey, Florida, tattoo shop owner Dennis "Scooter" Abrahamsen, 41, on May 15 after an all-night sex party at Abrahamsen’s home.

Police said the motive was robbery - the take by Andrews and Logue was about $6,000 in cash, a laptop, cameras and credit cards. The couple was caught after detectives obtained Twitters and text messages between the couple in which they talked about and plotted the crime. The girlfriend was in the house with Abrahamsen while Jason waited outside until all the guests  left the party.

Andrews’ true background remains a mystery. At times, he’s told people he was from Kalamazoo, Mich. He’s often claimed to be an Iraq War veteran and told the Chattanooga Billiard Club owner that he was in the Marines for 10 years. In Chicago he told people he was  from London and talked with a  British accent. Club ads for his DJ gigs here billed him as a hot London DJ. People who worked with him briefly in Chattanooga, though, said he didn’t use a British accent there.

SCARY!
