Former Plastic Surgeon Christ Koulis Found Dead

Posted:

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A former Nashville plastic surgeon convicted in the death of his model girlfriend has died Friday morning.

His attorney, David Raybin, said Koulis' sister said the death appears to be from an apparent heart attack.

In 2007, a Williamson County jury convicted Koulis of criminally negligent homicide in the death of Lesa Buchanan. Buchanan died of a drug overdose during what prosecutors called a marathon of sex and drugs over July 4th weekend of 2005.

Investigators said Koulis provided the drugs to Buchanan.

Raybin said he'd been working on appeals for Koulis.
