Jonathan Joss escorted out of ‘King of the Hill’ panel days before murder: report
NY Post
Jonathan Joss was allegedly escorted out of a TV festival after expressing disappointment in not being asked to be part of the “King of the Hill” panel.
The actor, who voiced John Redcorn in the Fox animated series, was fatally shot on Sunday, June 1, following a heated altercation in Texas.
He was 59.
The Post confirmed the suspect, Sigfredo Alvarez Ceja, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. He is currently behind bars, with his bond set at $200K.
However, days before the argument that allegedly led to his death, Joss was removed from a theater by security during the “King of the Hill” panel at the ATX TV Festival, eyewitnesses told People.
The alleged incident — which was caught on camera by a fan — happened at the Paramount Theatre in Austin, Texas, on Friday, May 30, with insiders telling the outlet that Joss, who was in the crowd, walked up to a microphone that was supposed to be used for the Q&A portion of the event and began to speak before it was time for the audience to interact with those on the panel.
