'Party Monster' Michael Alig Details Grisly Crime in Exclusive Interview

- Опубликовано: 28 сен 2024
- Twenty years after his manslaughter conviction, "Party Monster" Michael Alig says he's trying to reinvent himself. In 1996, the club promoter and his roommate Robert "Freeze" Riggs killed acquaintance, Andre "Angel" Melendez. They cut up Melendez's body and threw it in the Hudson River. They also talked openly about the killing in an effort, he now says, to put the burden on someone else. "I know that nothing I ever do is going to erase the past," Alig told InsideEdition.com. #InsideEdition

I've been on a lot of drugs, bro. I never came close to murdering someone and then dismembering them. That's on you, "homie."
Ikr
mercster Thank you mercster for seeing through his bs if only the court system weren't as corru- I mean "naive"
mercster I used drugs for the past 30yrs...i never even hurt anyone physically... can't blame it on drugs but we kinda can... some ppl lose themselves
mercster exactly. Plenty of us have used drugs before and we could never imagine doing something like this. He’s really full of it.
mercster perhaps different people react differently?
As a person living in recovery- I can say, even in the deepest , darkest moments in my addiction- killing and chopping up one of my friends never crossed my mind. 🤷🏻♀️
Thank you I just wrote that too above . !!
100% agree!!
Same. And I’ve done most of the same drugs he was using🙄🤦🏻♀️ grateful to be sober.
They didn't really consider him a friend, more of a drug dealer...Angel thought of them has friends...Michael didn't.
@WhoDey!, yeah, but one really should avoid killing and dismembering anyone, don’t ya think?
Not once in that interview did he actually apologise for murdering Angel.
No he didn't,t someone should ask him why
True narcissism :(
@@shanny4306 because he's only sorry he got caught.
Ooh he did on "KILLER CLANS" (its a tv show/series)he said he's sorry and his conscience eats him for what he did...but he doesn't completely own up cuz he still blames his actions to drugs(being high)
Wasnt it the other guy that actually killed him
This creep just got busted for drugs in NYC. He's latching onto some 11 yr old boy who does drag. Go ck out desmond is amazing. It will make you sick. He needs to be stopped
Craig Bert in the video I watched it’s a theory the mother has an attraction to the disgusting horrific things he’s done and idolizes him, while dragging her kid into it.
@Liberty bell 11. He's been dragging since 8. He's 11 now.
Why is no one investigating Desmond's mother? That's the question which should be asked.
The CHILD was also on the morning show GOOD MORNING AMERICA, the audience was applauding for an 11 year old (DRAG QUEEN). Just another example of Liberals trying to "NORMALIZE" pedophilia in America
It's sick & discusting and the whole damn bunch should be hanger on gallows PUBLICLY!!!
@calo10able if you mean him getting busted look at queerty.com/michael alig
This was so weird...... hearing him talking about this so casually is crazy.
Only 17 years for murdering someone and dismembering them. Unbelievable
Being white has its perks😭
And Menendez brothers got the life sentence for killing their abusers. Make it make sense
Classic narcissism here. Poor me poor me. It wasn't me, it was the drugs.
And now he’s hanging out with 10 year old Desmond the Amazing (transgender). It’s on RUclips and it’s disturbing
Romeland
YES! I just came back to this video to comment on 11 yr old Desmond!! That child is being exploited!! His mother is a pos!! It’s one thing to accept your child as gay, transgender or whatever... but this is a whole other level!! It’s not funny or cute! That child is in danger!! I tagged 2 of his videos as child abuse. If I knew where he lived, I’d call CPS! Long after he’s been abused... people will ask... why wasn’t he helped sooner!
Yes i had just seen that the other day which lead me to here..
Lindsay James Me too, that poor kid. It’s gone past the point of a young boy expressing themselves it never really was in the first place, he’s obviously being manipulated by his mother and now this sick man.
Desmomd isnt transgender ijs. He is a boy who watches too much TV.
@@BoomClap3671 this i agree with too
He sounds and looks like he's been awake for 5 days before doing this interview.
I think we have ourselves a classic narcissist here.
Saskia Lawler narcissistic psychopath
A total narcissist. The drugs kicked him over the edge to psychopathic behavior. Really sad.
R.I.P. Andre Melendez
Sociopath with narcissistic tendencies
Saskia Lawler sociopath
Sociopath....
He said he’s trying to reinvent himself?! After 17 yrs in jail, I’d think he’d be a different person. I didn’t hear any remorse in his voice. He was speaking so fast it seems like he was high on coke. I was shocked when he said he was 52, as I am as well! Which means in 1996 he was 31 & not a kid!! I was married and pregnant with my 3rd son. I stopped partying at 22, but never had any murdering tendencies while high! How did he only receive 17 years for murder?? If Angel had killed him, you know he would have gotten a life sentence !!
EXACTLY
@@pekoonkoon Manson's white. Never did the actual killing; just ordered them. Was up for parole several times but, fortunately, never released and died in jail. Yet they let this murderer out and now he's having a 10 yo kid dance for money in his bar. How the hell has he not been arrested for that?
@@AudioInklined WTF your sick
@@BlazeDuskdreamer I'm pretty sure Desmond's mother is to blame for him dancing on stage at a gay bar.
Blaze Duskdreamer honey, they kept Manson in Jail because they would have had a riot on they hands if they let him out. Not to say all the people waiting at the gates to kill his ass....that’s just a logistics nightmare for the cops.
He recently got arrested for smoking crystal meth in a park
He's one of those people who will never learn.
classy
That's why he should still be in prison.He says he wouldn't have done it if he wasn't on drugs so anytime he takes drugs he could definitely kill again..
Look at eyes in the interview, I'm not judging, I only can tell for a reason, hes clearly not sober in this interview.
Lol omg really? I thought so that he'd b using again. I follow him on Instagram and he's always partying. U can't party and drugs Not b there.
No remorse. It’s clear. The rhythm and cadence in his voice still sounds like he’s trying to be impressive and different. He’s putting on a show. not trying to convey his sorrow or regret. His eyes don’t change through the entire video. He also swerves the question when asked to address the family. He just avoids it stating they can contact him 😂 if you have to say “this is heartfelt actually” then it’s not heartfelt, lmao. Dude is bonkers.
Monty Hale drugs can have that lasting effect...in my opinion *
Monty Hale I think he's back on drugs.
julie doll he’s on parole,not that stops anyone...
Monty Hale You’re absolutely right he has no remorse of the horrific murder he attempted it is so sad after 20+ years you can see it in his eyes he is happy
Monty Hale ...when he first got out of prison he made crude comments about the guy he murdered on camera....then tried to back it up later in the program. This guy is a textbook sociopath. It was a Netflix show about him.
Why only 17yrs?! This was murder & desecration of a body, so 17yrs sounds like a very light sentence!
Kraye Inluv he wasn’t convicted of murder he pled guilty to 1st degree man slaughter. He should ha e got life for murder
Wow. He couldn’t/would not even say sorry. He’s not sorry. I don’t understand why he’s out of prison. Not a good person
his initial choice of words vs what he says when he corrects himself. he has zero remorse
i so picked up on that as well! he kept correcting his self like hmmm let me be more sensitive
17 years in prison with your own thoughts is a lot of time to come to some sort of peace with what you have done. No matter what it may be.
He really doesn't. He is a complete psychopath!
he is NOT psychopath. He was attacked by his friend Angel, and his other friend Freeze hit Angel over the head with a hammer. Afterward, michael promised freeze he would chop the body up and dispose of it in exchange for 10 bags of heroin.
Rusti he likes the fame
Sociopaths & psychopaths cannot be rehabilitated.
Dude talks like he's on speed.
R.I.P. Angel, not everyone who deals drugs is a bad person.
Now in December 2020 the criminal Michael has died from a heroin overdose. He was a murderer and I guess now he's suffering his judgment.
Okay... but everyone who makes the choice to murder someone is.
Michael the criminal who killed Angel should have gotten the death penalty but, the liberal state of New York doesn't have it. I guess his heroin overdose was his lethal injection. I can't stand celebrity criminals.
😆😆😆😆😆
Who knows, angel may have been trying to kill him and it might have been self defense… but he did chop the guy up and throw him in the river
This dude is totally on some sort of speed in this interview. Meth, crack.....something.
Taylor Allen John Anstrom I agree a 100%
He does meth.
Crystal Meth
When you do as many drugs as he's done, you become permanently whacked. Crazy is next.
Oh boy no kidding!
This was recommended to me from a video that had Alig sitting on a couch with a crossdressing child. I went too far down the rabbithole, guys.
I hate when then that happens
Thats a youtuber Desmond
@@Ak907Queen Hopefully Desmond doesn't grow up to murder/dismember anyone, but I won't hold my breath
I pray for Desmond. That child is being abused in plain sight
What Poetic Justice he kills his heroin dealer and he dies from a heroin overdose. I imagine he didn't go to heaven he went to the other place and there's no party there.
Not according to Lil Nas X. Its the place to be for a party in his view!
@@Andyontherocks Michael is not in a good place right now and he was quite surprised.
No such thing as heaven or hell.
@@ellamay3816 Explain why so many people have NDE experiences and it completely changes their whole belief system now ? I guess you aren't open minded to the possibility of another dimension after this. I've seen and had Supernatural experiences when it comes to premonitions that have come true.
He seems like he's high right now. Can't complete a sentence
Should've never been released
His eyes and speech makes me think he was loaded during this interview. Really a very sad selfish person. RIP Angel.
HOW IS HE STILL OUT?? THE SYSTEM IS ALWAYS FAILING US!
@@28Jujubeehe’s dead
@@magnusvistreym7314 I saw and over dose -
Angel was a heroin dealer, profiting off the addictions of others. Micheal Alig is a terrible person, but I don't feel bad for Angel either.
I've done every drug and never has it made me feel like killing someone 🤨 And how many days was he high cos it was over several days. If I woke up after a drug coma and found a dead body and had no memory I'd phone the police like a normal person. Michael is a "because" person, because this and that
That he ended up dead due to a heroin overdose is proof he never really faced up to it fully, and I doubt he could've redeemed himself properly. Listening to him talk about it, there's no sign of it even being difficult for him to recount. I can see the charisma that made him so likeable in his youth is still there, but it's really seedy when you think about what he did and almost got away with.
One of the Club Kids who was around during Angel Melendez's killing just died recently... of... a fentanyl overdose. Even more tragic is just a week or two before, his infant daughter died of fentanyl & heroin ingestion from the drugs he had scattered around his house. Name is Daniel Auster, son of the contemporary novelist Paul Auster. In exchange for keeping silent he was given the drug money from Melendez's stash.
I didn’t know he died from overdose. What took him so long! ?
He's totally loaded in the interview... 17 years?! Wtf?!
Got nothing to do with drugs my guy. I’ve been on massive amounts of drugs and multiple drugs at the same time and I have NEVER come close to making that bad of a decision. Such a sad story all the way up to him dying on Christmas.
I don't believe a word he says
According to Freeze the partner. The movie wasnt far fetched from what really happened.
And yet, here he is running a RUclips channel featuring a young boy on it looking especially high 😳
People say it's ketamine
Yes very disturbing. That poor kid was definitely high! Shame on his parents for exploiting that poor child and not protecting him! I pray for God to keep his safe
Mindfully Manda How is this being allowed??
There’s video evidence of him in the 90s admitting to he and his boyfriend pressuring young, straight 16 year old boys into having sex with him as well!! This is very glossed over but he’s a sick man who should be kept far from Desmond. Definitely wouldn’t put it past him to be grooming this kid and/or pumping him with drugs...
:[ It wouldn’t matter if those 16 year old boys identified as straight, gay, or giraffes! They were too damn young to consent to anything! That’s predator behavior on his part. I haven’t seen this new stuff with this new kid but it sounds like his parents may be looking for a quick check! Disgusting and heart breaking! Of course family services won’t get involved because someone has to die or almost die before they lift a finger! Good ole American justice! SMDH!
My heart aches so bad for Angel and his family. Angel had his life taken away so unfairly over something so stupid. He doesn't get to live his life, so why should Alig?
Mine doesn’t,he was a drug dealer poisoning the society
Like something out of "A Clockwork Orange".
I am honestly amazed and disgusted at the media treating this piece of human garbage like a celebrity.
They were jealous of Angel… he was very beautiful and iconic. This man has demons for sure, I know what darkness he serves.
I recall watching him with the others on the daytime talk show syndicate and I thought he was a narcissistic creep. They were treated as freaks, with the exception being Joan Rivers. I accepted them for that, but his attitude rubbed me the wrong way.
and he is STILL on drugs!!!
He was never remorseful and is where he deserves to be today. I hope Angel's family has some peace now.
The piece that Michael said about "if *they* wanted to contact *me* for any reason whatsoever, I would be open to speaking with them and listening to whatever they had to say" was totally the right response to the question of what he would say to the Mendelez family. He gets that any communication from him could make their pain that much worse. Is he a monster? Yes. But do I think he's aware of the damage he's done? Absolutely.
Nah, he's a coward that knows that they'll never reach out to him so it's a safe thing to say and he hopes it makes him look better...
I've always wondered what happened to him. Looks like drugs messed him up for the long term. He's extremely open about what he was going through and his thought process but, he still seems to not be able to say I'm sorry to his family.. After 20yrs you would think that he has dealt with what he did.
It’s sad and disturbing that he was given a chance to say “I’m sorry” to Angel’s family..but he chose not to. It could have contributed even a little to lessen their pain..but too selfish to even to do that!
He’s glad angels is gone why I stay away from jealous people
Now, he’s hanging out with Desmond is Amazing. Scandalous.
This guy makes my skin crawl
Angel suffered. Alig didn't
They're talking about kids being there. You can't tell me these people aren't groomers.
They castrated Angel also. That’s always left out.
Woah....what?! How do you know this? I have followed this story for years and never once heard or read this. But then again you don't hear about Daniel Auster much either....This story gets even shadier as the years go by.
@@thomasknight3002 I’m pretty sure Daniel Auster only got 5 yrs probation. He’s always left out. He got lucky because his Dad was rich. I read about the castration a while ago. I’ll try to find the article for you.
Well Michael, now that you're gone, maybe you can apologize to Angel in person.
And now he’s dead
classic narcissist/sociopath. So focused on himself its all he's ever thought about. He can't empathise with Angel or his family because they aren't him. He is only focused on telling his story and how he will look/be portrayed.
I see no difference between angel Melendez and the actor of the movie, amazing 0:
Still TWEAKING.....
weird watching someone casually explain them murdering someone, saying it's something that could "possibly be forgivable"
Michael's biggest problem was that he thought he could "Come Back" the way Steve Rubell did after Studio 54. It didn't happen. He hurt too many people, and folks have long notorious memories and he paid a very high price.
After this video you can tell how mentally ill Michael is and there really was no justice for Angel
Party monster my favorite movie of all time
Lily Abrams said no one ever lol jk
Noob
That's just sad.
First time I’ve heard of it
I got sucked into nelson sullivans videos for the time period and the nostalgia of a time i wasnt even alive. It turned darker and darker. What a strange band it was.
No respect for murderers
52?? He looks amazing jeezus. Lack of sunlight I guess.
Why did they ever get out of prison? They killed, and dismembered someone....thats nuts!
u think that's crazy, look up Issei Sagawa it's a similar yet different scenario
I feel so bad for Angels brother. Look how sad. I can’t believe this guy is out of prison. Good luck on balancing those scales because you can’t.
Karma came looking in Dec. 2020. Found him.
He’s loaded right in this interview
Omfg that’s my friend Broc Gendron dancing like a fool in the windbreaker in the first few seconds!!!Judge Judy now Inside Edition? Lol
R.I.P. ANGEL
I don’t like how he calls this all “scandalous” like you literally murdered and dismembered a human being?!?!
I don't think the true nature of it all is processing correctly.
He seems a little "methy" in this video
why give him this attention \ interview??? ew!
how he was able to not even be from nyc & start a whole craze is mindblowing
I’ve been in a complete state of psychosis from heavy meth use when I was dealing with a 12 year addiction , I’m pretty blessed that I never had the desire to hurt or kill anyone . I feel like drugs may have fueled that , but no drug in the world could make me kill someone. That’s something internal in a person
Michael never ever shared his real behind the scenes experience as a club kid. He had to have been taken advantage of. What was his childhood like? He died with his secrets.
We all do.
Michael Alig was and will always be corny. These “kids” caused so much destruction to peoples businesses and purposefully interrupted people’s lives because “fashion, baby”. Lame. Anyone who continued a friendship with him after murdering Angel is just as ridiculous. He fantasized about it and did it. I don’t understand how anyone could see him as anything other than the careless and detached snake he was
The 20th century mantra..."We can do whatever we want!"
The 21st century..:oh, oh, what have we done.
The reason why he only got 17 years is because he made a deal with the prosecutor to help them take down Peter Gaitien.
Watching angels brother cry is heart breaking
Angel Melendez got is justice today. Rip
3:35 his reaction... the guy sounds more sinister than "manslaughter"
And now he's dead. Oh dear, how sad....nevermind.
He overdosed on heroin and died last night in NYC .
This man makes me sick... what he's doing now with young Desmond is shocking. Leopards never change their spots and this man should never have been allowed back into society just to ruin some poor child's life. Sick...just sick....hope he rots...
And now he's hanging out with that drag kid Desmond is Amazing. Absolutely disgusting.
Seems to me he is very unapologetic and has no remorse for killing Angel. Remember this is a guy who killed for Coke
Merry Christmas Michael
Lol two years later hes dead. “I’m going in a new direction” yea as if.
This guy should have never been let out of jail. Listen to him still sociopathic. Disgusting
I feel like he kinda is proud of the attention he got from murdering angel.... that’s so messed up dude
I forever see Angel's face, it is a sad event. May he rest in peace now that his killer is gone too.
to me it's obvious he's spent a lot of time thinking about his mistakes and wishes he hadn't done what he did. not sure what this comment section is on about.
Forgiveness is a blessing, love Andre (as Angel) but Michael's mother was heartbroken because her two sons had passed away at the same time...
Desmond's new best friend...
Goodnight Michael.
i honestly find it really creepy how hes sitting here talking about murdering someone like it was just another wacky drug night where some "bad" stuff happened. like you murdered someone and chopped them up dude. sober or not how do you live with that in your mind..?
easy. heroin and lots of it
HE DOESN'T CARE
Not heroin. Meth and coke yea
What’s even worse is that he’s getting involved with kids. ‘Desmond is amazing’. Look up his interview sitting right next to Alig. The kid looks like they drugged him. This is in plain sight!!!! A convicted murderer with glorification of date rape drugs in his art and this kids parents actually allowed that.
Demons!
chopping up a body and he only gets 17 yrs.!?!? SMH!!!!
yea when you plead guilty they lower the sentence
It wasn’t premeditated it was manslaughter so that’s about right ,how they acted afterwards was irrational and terrible but I think they took into account that they weren’t in a rational mind when they chopped his body up due to drugs
...come live in New Zealand and kill 3 proustites and get out after 17 years!
blackestcat1111 because he’s gay they went easy on him
blackestcat1111 that’s what happens when Democrats convict gays
It's really revealing that when asked what he would say to Angel's family if he got the chance, rather than apologize and beg forgiveness, he just says that THEY should reach out to HIM. How narcissistic and entitled can you be?
It was his audacity for me🙄 that isn’t how that works ever🙃
He died selfish🤷🏽♀️
I'm not trying to defend Michael Alig (who I don't even consider to be a human being) but per the terms of his sentencing he was not allowed to contact the victim's family.
@@brookiegremlin6660 yeah, however he could have apologized in this interview, but never did. instead he said they could reach out to him. classic narcissist
He is gay. What do you expect?
I find it mind boggling that a person who KILLED someone can walk the streets free, even if it’s 50 years later!
i dont understand it either
@@bd4597 dies 1 year after darling
Alig was being used as a DEA drug sting informer on the club owner so the feds wanted to get him a plea deal hoping he would spill on the club owner. That's how he got manslaughter conviction.
Michael Alig isn't free. He died of heroin overdose in 2020.
Don’t worry he was only out for a few years. He passed away of a drug overdose in 2020.
The way he's constantly trying to downplay what they did comes across as very psychopathic.
And a whole lot of word salad going on, very little direct to the point speaking. He jumps from one to the next fluff term. I get some major badddd vibes!
He has histrionic personality disorder apparently
Yeah his wording was kinda odd like he couldn’t spit it out or something probably from the drug abuse.
He sounds like he is trying to dance around what he actually did and blame drugs but he is smart enough to not do that outright. It’s hard to listen to him, I don’t know if he is burned out from drugs or he just doesn’t want accountability.
@@carolynjohnson6394 And NPD also possible RAD too. He HAD those disorders (past tense) cause he died in 2020 Christmas day.
I've never gotten over how this MURDERER was glamourized. Truly sickening..my heart goes out to Angel's family. =/
cenobyt3z It’s like everyone just threw Angel away and went right to publicizing the story about the killers and making it all about them. SMDH..... So sad, and so sick!
My family talks about it but we really don’t care. It’s sad he was my cousin
So sad:/ I never even knew about this and I saw the club kids on tv ep again and decided to read deep in the comments and people were saying he did it in self defense.. so disgusting.. I can’t believe anyone defended him.. angel deserved better🤍🥺
this piece of garbage was a narcissist, murderer, childish, drugged and sadist. It's absurd that he had a RUclips channel and discipled a child named Desmond, to applause from the media.
My emotions exactly!! The kid along with another take a life in such a gruesome manor and he's glorified for the act then being "penthouse" treated by the D.A. untill they discover what they want from him their not going to get. And even today he's somewhat looked upon as a celebrity but this is nothing new amongst certain evil acts and the individuals that commit them. Yet u see nothing about the victim!! No tribute,documentary,blockbuster movie with a-list actor's playing the murders character. I have yet to find anyone that found Angel fascinating intriguing a bit mysterious more so than the man that took his life away, the crime altogether disgusts me and all actions from that point on i find even more so!!! It seems i speak for the minority but I've seen enough of Michael to need never see him again. But the one person that needs to be recognized his legacy not forgotten rather talked about isn't. There's somethin deeply wrong with that.
He’s not using drugs my ass.... he’s wasted during this interview
I don't think so. he acted just the same when he got out of prison (like as he walked out of prison). I think that's just his weird personality partially leftover from the years of drugs.
When you have years of drug abuse even when you're clean you don't look/sound/act it. Drugs mess you up forever when you do them long enough or hard enough.
ali G my friend did coke with him at a club in Hollywood a few months ago... he’s definitely doing drugs
It says he was arrested for smoking meth, so it appears he has graduated to meth from coke, I can tell from this interview that he is not high on heroin he is talking way to fast & jumpy a clear sign of uppers.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Alig
after getting out he got popped with crystal but said it was his bfs.
The ability to murder and dismember dosnt come from a drug that's a well crafted lie, that ability comes from within.
Certainly does come from within.
That is pure evil.
Says the person who doesn't do any drugs
@@KimberlyBishh as someone who did alot of those same drugs, the thought to murder and dismember someone does not come from drugs, it comes from a sick psychopathic mind
i cant believe he was released. unreal
it happens when you get to the end of a life sentence
THAT BECAUSE WE ALL LIVE IN LIBTARDIA NOW..
And now hangs with a kid named Desmond :/
He’s released and close to kids such as Desmond is Amazing... 🤨
Now he's on RUclips hanging out with a little boy 🤦🏼♀️
"He was begging to be caught"...NO, he was bragging and thought he was above conventional rules.
Allen Brown apparently he was he only did 17 years and doesn't seem like he got hurt in prison
Derrick Elliott He didn't get hurt in prison because he was someone's wife most likely. They get protected.
what idiot doesnt know that bragging about a crime is the quickest way to get caught?? you make no sense.
Allen Brown good observation, I agree
He was begging to be caught in the sense that he wanted the recognition. He didn't kill cause he was angry, he killed to be weird and edgy. No point being weird and edgy if nobody knows but you right?
So where's the part where "Michael Alig Details Grisly Crime"? All I heard was "poor me, I was on drugs".
Well he was.. Probs so out of it
I totally agree with you, that's all I heard!
Waffen Collider marxist? If anything, delusions of grandeur and celebration of one's individuality to the point of redundance and denial of common values isn't marxist, it's inherently capitalist. You can't just look at the badshit-crazy stuff america produces and call it marxist and that's it. Maybe, for once, reflect your own culture. But I guess your culture makes you immune to that.
WAFFEN COLLIDER 'Divisionalist'
WTF do you mean??? all this time the guy has been asking him why he did it. what do you want him to do? ignore the questions and just talk about how much he misses angel???!! he hardly knew the guy outside of drugs! he was their ''DRUG DEALER" remember?? or have you not done your homework
