Police consider whether ‘King of the Hill’ actor’s sexual orientation played a role in his killing -
💨 Abstract
Investigators are re-evaluating whether sexual orientation played a role in the shooting death of "King of the Hill" voice actor Jonathan Joss in Texas. Initially, police dismissed homophobia as a motive, but later admitted their statement was premature. They are looking at the broader context, including past neighborhood disturbances and previous harassment claims. Joss' husband reported violent homophobic slurs during the attack. Sigfredo Ceja Alvarez is charged with Joss' murder.
