Peev and Valchinov met at a bar between 5 and 6 years ago, and Valchinov introduced Vesco to crypto. 
According to surveillance footage, Valchinov and Peev were together on Aug. 8 at Valchinov’s residence, the last time that Peev was seen alive. 
Police also arrested Konstantin Subotinov, who was accused of being an accomplice of Valchinov in Peevs murder.
