Gianni Versace at the Former Versace Mansion

The discovery of two dead bodies in the former Versace mansion happened on the eve of the 24th anniversary of Gianni Versace's death at the hands of Andrew Cunanan.

Andrew Cunanan, a former male prostitute-turned-serial killer, shot Gianni Versace on the front step of his mansion in Florida on July 15, 1997.

According to Biography, an eyewitness of the crime said that Versace's blood was "coming out like crazy." The witness, identified as Eddie Bianchi, further noted that Gianni Versace shook a little bit then stopped moving.

Eight days after the assassination of the renowned couturier, Andrew Cunanan was reported to shot himself with the same gun he used to kill Gianni Versace. Daily Mail reported that Cunanan was known to be wanted for the murders of four other men. 

Gianni Versace was the fifth and final individual killed by Andrew Cunanan before his passing. Versace's funeral was held in Milan, Italy. It was attended by different socialites and fashion icons such as Giorgio Armani, Sir Elton John, and Princess Diana.
