EP 30. The Brutal Murder of Ken Avvenire

He opened his home to someone he thought he could trust. What happened next was pure horror.

In 2000, Ken Avvenire—a kind, openly gay man living in Florida—was found dead, bound and brutally tortured. The crime scene was savage, and the motive appeared to be rooted in nothing more than hate and opportunity. As investigators searched for answers, they uncovered a chilling dynamic of manipulation, betrayal, and targeting.

This episode unpacks a devastating gay murder case that reflects the real-life dangers of queer vulnerability, especially when kindness is mistaken for weakness.

Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light—all with a cold one in hand.
