The site reports that Gustavo's body was found by Jaxton Wheeler, also an adult performer and Gustavo's roommate, co-star, and friend.
Said Wheeler to Str8upgayporn: “I've lost friends, but for it to be my best friend; he was like my brother. We really enjoyed working together…he looked out for me and I looked out for him. To know that he didn't say one thing to me, didn't reach out, [and] to find him with his girlfriend and her son following right behind me. It just keeps playing over and over in my head.”
Wheeler posted an emotional message to Instagram about Gustavo.
