Within the Netflix series, Worst Roommate Ever, the final episode deals with the story of Jamison Bachman and his reign of terror and tragedy. This episode is based on a New York Magazine article from 2018 of the same title. Embedded in this story lies the murder case of Kenneth Gutzeit in 1976. Bachman witnessed this incident as a Tulane University student in New Orleans, while at the Sigma Chi fraternity house, and it supposedly created a catalyst for his destructive behavior.
The Netflix account provides little information on the backstory of the fatal altercation. It simply surmises that Ken Gutzeit instigated the confrontation, and the assailant, Randell Vidrine, walked free without a trial two weeks later based on a self-defense argument.
