Hi Alex, We wrote a blog post on this topic late last year: http://thelastpickle.com/blog/2018/09/18/assassinate.html.
In short, you will need to run the assassinate command on each node simultaneously a number of times in quick succession. This will generate a number of messages requesting all nodes completely forget there used to be an entry within the gossip state for the given IP address.
