A New York City man, 41-year-old John Lea, was found dead in his Hell's Kitchen apartment, and cops are looking for his live-in partner.

Lea was evidently found laying on the bed in nothing but boxers with stab wounds all over his body signaling that he probably fought for his life. The NYPD is looking Justin Waller, John's "down on his luck" live-in partner.

Whoever killed John covered him up in clothes and blankets, locked the door as they exited and left the cat roaming around with Lea's dead body.  

'The bloody knife was right next to him,' one source said. 

Friends and co-workers became concerned when John didn't show up for his event planning job.  A cop eventually helped a concerned friend climb in through the window where they discovered the gruesome scene.
