Second slaying suspect arrested

A second arrest has been made in the slaying of 41-year-old tattoo shop owner Dennis "Scooter" Abrahamsen, who was found dead in his New Port Richey home May 16.

Jason Richard Andrews, 27, was arrested Thursday night by the U.S. Marshals Service in Chattanooga, Tenn., on a first-degree murder warrant, said Pasco County Sheriff's Office spokesman Kevin Doll.

Andrews, a disc jockey, was working at the Chattanooga Billiards Club when he was tracked down after an anonymous tip given to Tampa Bay Crime Stoppers, authorities said. The club was described as an upscale pool hall and cigar lounge.

Andrews was booked into the Hamilton County jail in Tennessee and was awaiting extradition to Pasco County.

His girlfriend, Amanda Logue, 28, was arrested in May at her home in Leesburg, Ga. She is charged with first-degree murder and is being held at the Land O' Lakes Jail.

On May 16, the body of Abrahamsen, owner of Embellishing Tattoo & Piercing in Hudson, was found facedown on a massage table at his home in the Tanglewood East subdivision, off Ridge Road. His head had been bashed in, possibly with a sledgehammer, and he had been stabbed in the back, investigators said.

Logue is a prostitute who participated in a May 15 sex party at Abrahamsen's home, investigators said.

Abrahamsen had hired Logue to work at the party, when Logue and Andrews set him up, investigators said.

Deputies have retrieved texts between Logue and Andrews during a time when Logue acknowledged being at Abrahamsen's house.

"I'm so glad you're really committed to this take. Keep eyes for a knife, etc for me!" investigators said that Andrews wrote.

Logue said she wanted to have sex "after we kill (sic) him," investigators said.

Detectives said that after the slaying about $6,000, a laptop computer, a video camera, a digital camera and a Home Depot credit card were missing from Abrahamsen's house, 8250 Sycamore Drive.

Shortly after the slaying, Andrews was arrested in Largo on a retail theft charge. Investigators said they interviewed him at the time about the killing but didn't have enough evidence to hold him on a murder charge. He had Abrahamsen's Home Depot credit card with him, they said.

According to an affidavit, Logue later denied that she had anything to do with the killing and said that Andrews had killed Abrahamsen.

Logue and Andrews met on the set of a porn video late last year and fell in love - even though Logue was married, authorities and friends said.

Andrews previously worked in Chicago, where he used the stage name DJ Veritas. His Facebook and MySpace pages feature video clips of him playing techno music in clubs.

"He was a really straight up dude," said Michael Sarkowicz, a Chicago club photographer who knew Andrews.

Logue seemed like a decent person, said Kristen Cameron, a model from Florida who met Logue last year.

According to profiles on modeling websites, Logue did bikini and fetish modeling.

"She was professional, prompt and seemed all around normal, well so I thought," Cameron wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press. "She was nice to me and was a great model! I felt a connection to her since we both have Southern backgrounds."

But Cameron's opinion changed this spring when she saw how Logue acted around Andrews.

"Amanda wasn't the Amanda I knew," Cameron wrote. "She wouldn't talk, all she did was text with Jason."

Cameron said Andrews was obnoxious and brash. He often bragged about his military service, of which Cameron was skeptical.

In April and May, according to their Twitter accounts, Logue and Andrews spent several weeks in Florida, shooting porn videos, lolling on the beach and professing their love for each other. Photos on Logue's Facebook account show the pair grinning and hugging.

Logue reportedly performed in porn videos under the stage name "Sunny Dae."

On May 14, Andrews posted a link to a pornographic photo of Logue. He wrote on his Twitter account: "therealsunnydae and I are killing time waiting for a party to find us!"

The next day, detectives said, Abrahamsen hired Logue to have sex on camera during the party at his house. During the party, Logue texted her boyfriend several times, witnesses told investigators.

Text messages retrieved from Andrews' BlackBerry show the pair had discussed vinyl gloves; when other guests would leave Abrahamsen's home; and what was inside a safe.

According to an affidavit, everyone at the party left Abrahamsen's home around 5 a.m. on May 15, except for Logue. Andrews waited outside in his car, still texting her.

"You just get him relaxed and face down," Andrews said, referring to a massage Logue was going to give Abrahamsen.

Logue later informed Andrews when she was starting the massage.

Rubber gloves that Logue said she wore were later found in a clothes hamper with the murder weapon, investigators said.

Abrahamsen was found dead about 18 hours later. He was lying facedown on the massage table. Blood was splattered on the walls and a ceiling fan.

At 4:29 p.m. on May 16, less than a day after the slaying, Logue wrote on her Twitter account, using "Hearveritas," Andrews' Twitter name: "Taking it easy with hearveritas! Laying around eating popcorn and watching movies!"

At 5:20 p.m., Andrews tweeted: "therealsunnydae and I wanna go watch a movie tonight, any suggestion?"

As detectives investigated the slaying, Logue and Andrews were arrested May 18 in a neighboring county after trying to use Abrahamsen's credit card at a Home Depot.

But officials didn't have enough evidence to link the pair to the killing, and released them. On May 19, Logue went home to her husband and child in Georgia.

On May 21, Andrews wrote on his Twitter account in Hebrew: "Amanda please let me know when you are ok, really. My heart can't take the weight of the fear that I would never see you again."

It's unclear whether Logue ever saw Andrews' plea, or whether she replied to him before she was arrested May 26.
