Dang, and his house just caught fire too:

Too many of the show’s VAs met an untimely end.
House vandalized, then burned down, then shot dead... feels like a pattern of someone desperate to get him off the property. ~~No way this is coincidence.~~
Edit- I shouldn't have stated last line without evidence, of course it's possible this is an isolated series of most unfortunate events.
Im not saying it's not something more sinister, but this can 100% be a coincidence.
Home is vandalized and copper is stolen, leading to electrical problems. He comes home, either leaves the propane stove on by accident, leaves the gas tank on by accident, leaves a bad circuit on by accident, someone comes in and does something, or just random coincidence that that's when an electrical fire starts.
Flash forward 6 months and he's probably still crushingly low, gets into an argument with his neighbour that gets hotter than it would've if he was feeling better and he's in dumb fuck America so everyone has a point and click murder tool in their waist band and gets killed rather than punched.
We don't even know if they were the same houses.
You're right, incorrect of me to say it "can't be coincidence", but still quite an odd, near direct, escalating string of events imo. I had assumed it was the same property because both articles mention a "south side San Antonio home"
I mean, if it was a sinister plot, the neighbour getting into an argument and shooting him on his front lawn in broad daylight would be a rather inept conclusion.
It may be that there were tensions because the neighbour blamed him for burning the house next to his down or something. Misery tends to beget misery in numerous ways, it's often not nefarious.
Yeah, and the dog's skull and harness was also a coincidence. It might have been a different dog with an identical harness, and their dog might have actually been just fine.
Why do people still give these garbage people the benefit of the doubt
Add together cheap and easily obtainable handguns, NRA gun == macho manhood culture, and stress from the house fire and that's already a volatile mix.
Not even considering whether drugs, alcohol, and racism were involved.
Nope, you were right: https://bsky.app/profile/willharrisinva.bsky.social/post/3lqnh5lqoz223
Holy fuck. I'm glad his husband was able to escape.. You know, I'm staunchly anti-death penalty but I'm prepared to put my principles aside for this one. Hang this asshole at high noon.
It turns out that's likely the case, at least going by the surviving husband's public statement.
