Jonathan Joss, known for his role as the voice of John Redcorn in King of the Hill, tragically lost his life in the shooting. While the motive behind the crime has not been disclosed by the authorities, Joss' husband suggested that the attack may have been motivated by homophobia, citing previous threats and an arson incident at their home. Joss had a successful career in acting, with notable roles in shows like Parks and Recreation, Tulsa King, Ray Donovan, True Grit, and The Magnificent Seven. He took over the role of John Redcorn after the passing of Victor Aaron in a car accident in 1996.
