In an exclusive clip from the Nov. 3 episode of the new Oxygen <a href=”https://cheatsheet.com/tag/true-crime”>True Crime</a> series <em>A Plan to Kill, </em>Malusky recalls learning that his former partner and good friend Chris Vo had been found dead. </p>

<p id=”par-2_49″>“I was just <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/movies/”>watching a movie</a> with my family and the phone rings,” Malusky recalls in the upcoming episode, “When Kindness Kills.” “And it was my old neighbor, saying ‘There are a lot of cops at the house right now. I think there’s a dead person in the garage.’” </p>
<p id=”par-3_38″>“She said, ‘It’s definitely Chris.’ And my heart just started pounding. I was Chris’ partner for 12 years. So I feel, like, a pain deep in my heart because I still loved him. He was wonderful to me.” </p>
<p id=”par-4_25″>After his former neighbor called to tell him the horrible news, Malusky remained on the phone, and she eventually put him on with the police. </p>

<p id=”par-5_14″>In his conversation with the detectives, Malusky provides some important background information on Chris. </p>
<p id=”par-6_40″>“I told the cops that Chris is originally from Vietnam,” he says. “He left as a child, as a refugee, during <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/mick-jagger-said-the-rolling-stones-you-cant-always-get-what-you-want-inspired-vietnam-war.html/”>the Vietnam War</a>. He couldn’t tell his family that he was gay, so he was never out to them.”</p>
<p id=”par-7_49″>“When he came to America, Chris lived in California, New York, Colorado, before he finally came to Cleveland,” Malusky adds. “And really fell in love with the people here and his career took off. He wanted to come here and be a hairdresser and that’s exactly what he did.”</p>

<p id=”par-8_78″><em>A Plan to Kill,</em> which premiered Oct. 27, tells stories of “disturbed killers who spend weeks, months or even years viciously scheming and plotting the demise of their victims.” The show’s first episode focused on the murder of <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/wendy-williams-is-being-slammed-after-making-joke-about-the-death-of-drew-careys-ex-fiancee.html/”>Drew Carey’s ex-girlfriend Amie Harwick</a>. Future episodes will profile an 11-year-old boy, wary of his father’s behavior, who is determined to get justice for his mom and a white supremacist on the hook for murdering a picturesque family of three.</p>
<p id=”par-9_46″>Here’s the logline for “When Kindness Kills”: “The brutal murder of a popular hairdresser in Cleveland leaves police stunned and desperate for answers. An unexpected break comes when a routine traffic stop in a neighboring county uncovers a vicious and deadly plot no one saw coming.”</p>
<p id=”par-10_18″>New episodes of <em>A Plan to Kill</em> air on Sundays at 7 p.m. ET/PT on Oxygen True Crime. </p>
