Police consider whether ‘King of the Hill’ actor’s sexual orientation played a role in his killing
June 5, 2025
Authorities in Texas say investigators are looking into whether the sexual orientation of “King of the Hill” voice actor Jonathan Joss played a role in his shooting death. Joss’ husband has claimed the person who killed the actor yelled “violent homophobic slurs” before opening fire outside his home in San Antonio on Sunday night. A day after the shooting, San Antonio police issued a statement saying they had found “no evidence whatsoever to indicate that Mr. Joss’ murder was related to his sexual orientation.” But during a news conference Thursday, San Antonio Police Chief William McManus walked back that previous statement.
