Jonathan Joss's Husband Has Said The Man Who Shot Jonathan Was 'Laughing' And Shouting 'Homophobic Slurs' As He Died
This article includes graphic descriptions of gun violence that some readers may find distressing. On Monday, the sad news broke that actor Jonathan Joss had died at age 59 years old after he was shot and killed in what his husband, Tristan Kern de Gonzales, alleged was an anti-gay hate crime on Sunday, June 1. People previously reported that the couple's neighbor Sigfredo Ceja Alvarez, 56, confessed to shooting Jonathan as he was detained and has been charged with first-degree murder. He was released from police custody under full house arrest on a $200,000 bond on June 2. Later that same day, Tristan posted a statement to Jonathan's official Facebook page where he alleged that Jonathan had been killed because of his sexuality. He added that he and Jonathan had been 'harassed regularly' by their neighbors in San Antonio, Texas, for being a gay couple, and that their home had recently burned down after repeated threats.

'My husband Jonathan Joss and I were involved in a shooting while checking the mail at the site of our former home. That home was burned down after over two years of threats from people in the area who repeatedly told us they would set it on fire. We reported these threats to law enforcement multiple times and nothing was done,' the statement began. 'Throughout that time we were harassed regularly by individuals who made it clear they did not accept our relationship. Much of the harassment was openly homophobic,' Tristan went on. 'When we returned to the site to check our mail we discovered the skull of one of our dogs and its harness placed in clear view. This caused both of us severe emotional distress. We began yelling and crying in response to the pain of what we saw.' 'While we were doing this a man approached us. He started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised a gun from his lap and fired,' he alleged. 'Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone. We were grieving. We were standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life.' Related: 21 Times Celebrities Revealed Wildly Juicy, Shady, Or Even Disturbing Things In Interviews And Tristan has bravely shared some more details from his husband's death in a devastating new interview with People, where he alleged that the gunman was 'laughing' at them as Jonathan died. He also opened up about immediately knowing that 'there was no hope of saving' Jonathan due to the severe damage caused by the 'really, really close range' shot to his head. 'He was struggling so hard, trying to stay alive,' Tristan recalled. 'I held my husband's face together as best I could, and I told him how much I loved him, and that none of this was his fault. I told him he needed to cross over easy. He didn't need to keep fighting.' 'I told him that no matter what, and in some way, shape, or form, we'll always be together, and he'll always be my husband,' Tristan continued. He also claimed that the alleged gunman 'still had the gun pointed over' him while his husband lay dying, adding: 'He was laughing. He mocked me for telling my husband that I loved him and used the same homophobic slurs.' Tristan told the publication that he finds it hurtful 'whenever people try to say that it wasn't a hate crime,' which is no doubt a reference to the San Antonio Police Department saying that they had 'found no evidence to indicate that Mr. Joss's murder was related to his sexual orientation' just one day after his murder. On Thursday, SAPD police chief William McManus admitted that he regretted making this statement, and said that it was 'way too soon' for a hate crime to be ruled out. 'That was way, way, way, premature,' he said. 'We shouldn't have done it. It was way too soon before we had any real information. And I will own that… I want to apologize to the LGBTQ+ community for the tragic loss of Mr. Joss, which has been heavily felt." 'Our homicide detectives are continuing to pursue every lead in this case to ensure that we understand the full picture of what led up to the senseless murder of Mr. Joss,' McManus added during a press conference. McManus also addressed Tristan's claims that their home was burnt down in an anti-gay hate crime, saying that they were 'working closely' with the fire department's arson investigators, and that 'the investigation is still active.' He went on to confirm that law enforcement had received 'approximately 70 calls over the past two years' from both Jonathan and his neighbors over 'neighborhood-type disturbances.'

Cuban rapper Chocolate MC arrested after robbing fan who asked for a photo: MDSO
An avid Reggaeton listener got a rare opportunity when he noticed well-known Cuban rapper Chocolate MC just feet away from him at a Miami grocery store Tuesday. Unbeknownst to him, he would get more than he bargained for when a quick picture quickly turned to the music artist pointing a gun at him, deputies say. Around 8 a.m., the fan, who was not identified, was pulling into a Chavez Supermarket, 101 Opa-locka Blvd., when he noticed Yosvanis Sierra-Hernandez, better known as Chocolate MC, an arrest report detailed. He waved hello to the artist and called him over to take a picture of him. Sierra-Hernandez obliged and walked to his car, but when he got there, he pulled out a gun, pointed it at the man's chest and demanded the vehicle. That's not all he wanted, as he would soon demand the man give him cash too, the report read. When the fan showed Sierra-Hernandez his cashless wallet, he then demanded the man send him money through Zelle — the fan also did not have Zelle. Not getting any money, Sierra-Hernandez forced the man to drive to several places for the next two hours before eventually releasing him unharmed. Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office detectives combed through surveillance video, which showed the attempted robbery at gunpoint. After putting up wanted fliers throughout the county, authorities arrested Sierra-Hernandez late Tuesday. As of Thursday night, he still remained in the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.
